2008-Jan-27 - What is Face Lift Dentistry…really?

There are always plenty of questions from people about exactly what face lift dentistry really is.  Face lift dentistry actually makes the appearance of your face seem much smoother and also it helps to eliminate small wrinkles in the face that come right along with age.  Face lift dentistry will also give your lips a much fuller look.  There are many, many benefits to face lift dentistry and you should consider doing some research on the subject if you are planning or even thinking about having something done.

Face lift dentistry can create a new look for you just be simply fixing your teeth.  Most of the other cosmetic dentistry out there today will focus on just fixing your smile.  That is great and everyone loves a very nice smile but we usually only smile about two percent of the time.  That is not a lot when you consider it.  Of course that statistic is a general statement and there are some people who just love to smile so they do it all of the time or there are people that are required to smile a lot more due to the type of work that they do, but mostly it is just 2% of the time that we are smiling.  The other 98% of the time we are either talking or doing nothing with our mouths.  So with basic cosmetic dentistry you will look great two percent of the time and the rest of the time you will not look your best.

This is why face lift dentistry is probably the one thing that can help the way that you look that does not require cosmetic surgery.  The dental face lift will make teeth more natural looking and add back the height that the teeth have lost over the years.  That means that as we age our teeth shorten and they have a lot of wear and tear on them.  Due to the everyday use of our teeth and other things that we may do with our teeth like grinding them, we may wear our teeth down and make them smaller than they were initially.  That basically means that a person who is over thirty can really look much older than they are because of our teeth and the loss of the height of our teeth.

Face Lift Dentistry actually uses a live motion camera system to allow the patients to see how they look.  Different over bites or under bites will make a face look different and sometimes not very flattering. The Face Lift Dentistry system will fix the tips of the teeth to add height back to the tooth again.  This will result in increased facial height and make the patient look younger.  It will also allow the patient to be able to chew better and more efficiently. 

The Face Lift Dentistry system treats not only the teeth but the bite of the teeth, the face and the whole body.  By removing all of the old fillings and other dental work those areas of the mouth can be cleaned and any infections can be taken out.  By using “biologically compatible” materials the face lift dentistry system allows the patients body to become healthier.  There are many different types of porcelain technologies and some are better for certain dental issues.  You must find the right one that is compatible with the patient and the patient’s dental situation.

Getting the Face Lift Dentistry done on your mouth can really change your life.  Not only will it fix your smile but it will make you look younger and make your face more suited to what it should be.  Face lift dentistry is something that everyone should look into.
