How to Achieve a Dazzling Wedding Smile

When you're planning the finer details of your wedding day - bespoke wedding gowns, hairstyles and make-up, shoes, caterers, venues – you may become slightly overwhelmed! But just for argument's sake, let's add one more detail to the mix: when you consider how much you will be smiling and how many photographs of you will be taken, would you consider teeth whitening to make sure your smile is the best it can be?

A simple but effective beauty treatment

When you think ahead and consider the many hundreds of wedding photographs that will be taken on the day - not just by your professional photographer, but by everyone who has a smart phone or a camera - there will be a lot of evidence of your big day! There is no doubt that teeth whitening gives people confidence to be able to smile more, and many brides and groom today are adding it to their list of pre-wedding treatments as standard.

Bespoke wedding gowns are, naturally, often white – so seeing a less than white smile on the smiling bride can often highlight the problem. In some cases, if a bride doesn't feel confident enough she may not even smile as much as she should on the day – and this will reflect in the quality of the images.

By booking ahead to ensure your dentist is available at the right time, the whitening process can become part of your wedding planning. You will probably have arranged to meet with your dentist to have a check-up or have your hygienist thoroughly clean your teeth before the big day, so why not simply add in the whitening treatment?

You can, of course, purchase whitening kits from your local chemist, but an expert who understands the latest in modern technology can provide you with a longer lasting and safer procedure. These days the process is extremely affordable and when you're planning your wedding budget, it usually won’t be out of your reach. Your teeth can be whitened in one visit to a professional, but other experts will suggest a number of visits depending on the results you want to achieve.

When you think of all the effort you put in for your hair, makeup and bespoke wedding gowns, it only makes sense to enhance your overall look by giving your smile the "Hollywood" look. A little time, effort and forethought can make all the difference to your confidence as well as those all-important wedding photographs. And isn't that priceless?
