I see it everyday. High-achieving individuals invest thousands of dollars in an effort to appear young. They purchase high quality skin creams and book costly facial treatments. But they’re all about the skin. They forget to pay attention to the physical structure below it.
The main physical scaffolding for your lower face is your teeth. It’s similar to the frame of a house. If the frame breaks down, the walls will collapse. Dr. Dimple Desai is aware of this physical reality. At Luminous Smiles, she offers structural smile design to give her patients a more youthful look. Dr. Desai creates a solid base to create a natural balance in you entire face.
The Hidden Cause of Facial Aging: Bite Collapse
Are wrinkles the primary factor of aging faces? I don’t think so. A simple change in your mouth is one of the major reasons for looking older. Your teeth are gradually lost with time. This is known as “bite collapse” by dentists.
If you’re looking for a Newport Beach Cosmetic Dentistry, you should be looking to correct the underlying issue of an aging smile. Many people have a tendency to grind their teeth in the nighttime due to accumulated stress. It is rough on the teeth, acting similar to a sandpaper. This gradually wears away the hard outer enamel of the tooth. Year after year your teeth are get shorter. And while you lose this tooth height, the shape of your lower face is affected negatively.
Understanding Vertical Dimension
Your vertical dimension affects the height of your face. When you are young, your teeth keep your jaws just the right distance apart. This distance is optimal to make sure that muscles on your face are taut. This is waht creates a sharp and defined edge on your jawline.
However this loss of vertical dimension happens quite slowly. The results are only revealed in the mirror when it’s too late. Even if you are feeling fine, you may appear tired or angry. Your nose and chin become closer together. This decreases the natural backing of your lips which causes them to look thinner and roll inward.
Skin around your mouth folds over to form deep creases. Many patients attempt to correct the lines with facial fillers. However, fillers can only cover up the issue. They are unable to give your face the hard structure it requires to maintain proper shape. You cannot fix a broken foundation through a fresh coat of paint. This is exactly the structural problem that skilled Cosmetic Dentistry Newport Beach providers are trained to correct.
The Non-Surgical Dental Facelift
This lost foundation can be restored with elite dental care. Dr. Desai creates a true facelift, using the services provided at Luminous Smile, without surgery. She aims to mathematically re-open your bite back to its youthful level.
Dr. Desai identifies your facial features, and determines the ideal resting position for your jaws. Afterwards, she will replace the tooth structure that was lost with custom dental restorations. She brings back the height to your teeth, thus opening the whole lower half of your face. This helps to relieve some space in the joints of your jaw.
And with the restoration of your bite, she naturally restores the original position of your lips. It will help soften the jawline and minimize the deep lines around your mouth. The facial support that you used to have is restored again. The changes appear totally natural as they make use of your very own appropriate biology.
Replicating Youthful Light Dynamics
The first step is to fix the hidden structure. The next step is to make your teeth look exactly like your young era teeth. Worn teeth lose their shiny outer layer. Older teeth tend to look dull and yellow.
On the other hand, a young tooth is very special with how it interacts with light. It has a bright and clear edge for catching light. Dr. Desai works with the best master ceramists in order to replicate this natural look. They create your new smile with the help of ultra thin porcelain.
These talented artists create the porcelain by stacking layers one by one. They replicate the natural enamel’s light transmittance. The end result is a stunning and clear looking smile. It appears just like a healthy young tooth. The end product is never bulky or artificial in appearance.
