(ARA) - Exciting as runway trends may be for devoted fashionistas, they can be exhausting for everyone else. You probably have pieces in your closet that you've only worn once -- or never. Buying something trendy might have seemed like a good investment at the time. Now it just means money wasted.

But if you're ready to think outside the box, you can discover new ways to look fresh season after season. A great place to start is your smile. Look in the mirror. Are your teeth dull or discolored? Do you have a snaggle tooth that needs straightening out? Have your silver fillings become an eyesore?

In other words, are you dissatisfied with your smile in any way? Because if you are, there are three dental treatments that might be great for you: laser teeth whitening, porcelain veneers and composite resin fillings.

It might seem odd to think about your smile as an essential part of your look. But think about it. Everyone notices a great smile; not everyone notices the latest Dior bag. And a beautiful smile is timeless -- outlasting even the most memorable fashions.

* Crafty Cover Ups
Are porcelain veneers you? If you like standing out in a crowd, have been described as "daring" or "provocative," or are ready for a dramatic smile transformation, porcelain veneers could be a perfect fit. This one-stop cosmetic dental solution is unlike any other; porcelain veneers can mask stained, chipped, gapped and even crooked teeth in one fell swoop. Made of thin shells of porcelain -- or ceramic -- porcelain veneers are placed over your natural teeth, oftentimes with little to no prepping.

During the initial planning stage, your cosmetic dentist will help you make all the right choices to meet your smile goals. At www.1800dentist.com you can find a dentist who offers the services you need in a matter of minutes.

* White Is the New Black
In fashion, white is for weddings. In real life, a bright white smile never goes out of style. If you're a busy mom or a professional who's always on the go, a quick fix like laser teeth whitening can easily fit into your lifestyle. Laser teeth whitening treatments like Zoom! only take about an hour.

Talk to a dentist to find out exactly what your options are. Many cosmetic dentists offer free consultations.

* Oh, What a Filling
Ninety percent of Americans experience tooth decay at some point in their lives. While silver, or amalgam, fillings have been used in dentistry for over 60 years, composite resin fillings are making headway. Made of a mixture of plastic and glass, composite resin fillings match the natural color of your teeth. With composite resin fillings, no one will ever know that you have cavities just by looking at your teeth.

Composite fillings are ideal for small to mid-sized cavities or replacing amalgam fillings. Composite resin can also be used in bonding procedures to fix minor chips or breaks in your teeth.

Now that you know three ways to score a winning smile, you have nothing to lose by scheduling a consultation with a cosmetic dentist. Remember, if you don't have a cosmetic dentist, we can help you find one at www.1800dentist.com. Copyright © 2008, ARAnet, Inc.
