They call this “awards season” in Hollywood. There are so many accolades available for film and television actors this time of year, your television set is likely to more than rival your local pizza place at the end of soccer season with the number of trophies given out. For individuals in the public eye, unfortunately awards shows tend to focus less on the quality of their work, and more on their physical appearance. Vernon Hills cosmetic dentist, Dr. Brent Engelberg challenges you to take a look at the red carpets over the coming months and see if your can spot the celebrities that have had cosmetic dental work, such as teeth whitening and porcelain veneers.
Setting the Stage
Even if you aren’t a fan of awards ceremonies in Hollywood, by simply going to the movies or turning on your television set, you are likely to notice a great many extremely white, bright, and darn near perfect smiles. There are certainly actors who make the decision to keep their teeth natural, but generally those are considered “character actors.” The celebrities most likely to become matinee idols are either going to be born with flawless grins (which is rare) or will have undergone multiple cosmetic dentistry procedures to achieve “the look.” In fact, if you look back at the earlier works of certain actors, you might even be able to see what their teeth looked like before they took the cosmetic plunge.
Ready for your Close Up?
There are quite a few cosmetic dentistry procedure that can change a smile, but few can boast the kind of cover-up job that porcelain veneers are capable of. In fact, porcelain veneers used to be much more temporary due to the adhesive that was available. Because they would only last a few hours, veneers made the perfect option to alter the appearance of actors and actresses when playing a character that looked different than them. Eventually, stronger bonding agents which were biocompatible were discovered. The good news is, you don’t have to be a famous star to enjoy the benefits of cosmetic dental procedures such as veneers. Dr. Engelberg would be happy to consult with you to decide which treatment or combination of treatments can give you the smile you’ve been dreaming of.
