Cosmetic Dentistry in Flower Mound, TX
At our Flower Mound dental office, we offer a range of cosmetic dental treatments. Since everyone’s smile is different, we start with a cosmetic consultation. We’ll check your teeth and talk about your budget and smile goals. This helps us create a treatment plan that works just for you, so you get the smile you’ve always wanted.
Invisalign
Invisalign treatment is a clear and subtle way to straighten your teeth. Instead of metal braces, it uses clear plastic aligners to slowly move your teeth into the right position. It’s a great option for mild to moderate orthodontic issues. Many patients choose clear aligners from us because they’re nearly invisible, and you can take the aligners out to eat and brush your teeth.
Porcelain Veneers
Porcelain veneers are thin ceramic shells that cover the front of your teeth. They’re a popular choice because they can fix many cosmetic problems, like chipped or stained teeth. Veneers also help protect your natural teeth while improving how they look. Our veneers will have you smiling in no time.
We have seen the incredible difference that porcelain veneers can make for our patients. Our porcelain veneers cover up a variety of imperfections, like chipped, stained, or misaligned teeth. With veneers, our patients achieve a more uniform and symmetrical smile in just a few visits.
Teeth Bonding
Dental bonding can fix many of the same issues as veneers, but it’s not permanent. Bonding lasts around 3 to 7 years and we can remove it anytime. It’s also a good option for treating children’s dental concerns.
As a dentistry who provides dental bonding, we have the skills and experience necessary to help our patients with this service. We will carefully examine your teeth to see if dental bonding is the best option for you. If it is, we will carefully prepare the tooth, apply the bonding material, and shape it to achieve the results you want.
Zoom! Teeth Whitening
Our office uses the Zoom! Teeth Whitening system to help you get a brighter smile. This in-office treatment can make your teeth up to eight shades whiter. We also offer take-home whitening kits for a slower, more gradual whitening process. Our patients love the combination of in-office treatment for immediate results and take-home kits for touchups.
Cosmetic Laser Contouring
If you have a “gummy” smile, laser gum contouring can help balance the look of your teeth and gums. We can provide precise treatments and predictable results without using scalpels. Treatment with dental lasers is pain-free, and the recovery time is shorter than with traditional methods.
Why Choose Cosmetic Dentistry?
Cosmetic dentistry does more than just improve your appearance. It offers many other benefits like a self-esteem boost. Your smile plays a big role in how you feel about yourself. It’s one of the first things people notice.
If you’re not happy with your smile, you might feel self-conscious or anxious in social situations. Improving your smile can give you confidence and help you feel more at ease when talking to others. This confidence can also boost your professional life, helping you make a good impression in job interviews or when seeking promotions.
Improved Oral Function
Many cosmetic dental problems are tied to underlying health issues. Fixing these problems can improve both your appearance and the function of your teeth. For example, crooked teeth not only look uneven but can also lead to serious oral health issues. Crooked or crowded teeth can be harder to clean, which increases the risk of tooth decay and gum disease.
Crooked teeth can also cause an uneven bite, leading to extra pressure on certain teeth. This makes them more likely to wear down or break, which may require additional dental work. An uneven bite can also lead to TMJ disorders, causing pain in the jaw, face, and head. Fixing crooked teeth helps prevent these issues and keeps your smile healthy.
Frequently Asked Questions
Cosmetic dentistry can completely change your smile. Here are answers to some common questions to help you learn more.
What’s the difference between general and cosmetic dentistry?
General dentistry focuses on preventing problems and keeping your teeth healthy. It’s about regular care to stop serious issues from happening. Cosmetic dentistry focuses on how your smile looks. While it’s mostly about appearance, some cosmetic treatments can also improve how your teeth work.
What’s the most popular cosmetic dental treatment?
Teeth whitening is the most popular option. It’s quick, easy, and doesn’t take much time or cause pain. Most patients can finish the treatment in about an hour at our office, and it can make your teeth up to eight shades whiter in one visit.
Does insurance cover cosmetic dentistry?
Usually, insurance doesn’t cover cosmetic treatments. However, in some cases, like dental bonding to fix a tooth, it might be covered. We’ll always check with your insurance provider to see what’s included. We also offer payment plans and a membership option so you can get the care you need.
Am I a good candidate for cosmetic treatments?
Many people are good candidates for cosmetic treatments. We usually don’t perform cosmetic work on patients under 18 because their teeth and jaws are still developing. If you have any oral health issues, we’ll need to address those first before doing any cosmetic treatments.
Is cosmetic dentistry permanent?
No, most cosmetic treatments aren’t permanent, but how long they last depends on the treatment and the person. For example, Invisalign moves your teeth, and that can be permanent if you wear your retainer as instructed. Veneers and bonding can last for several years.
Will people know I’ve had cosmetic dentistry?
Cosmetic dental treatments are designed to look natural and blend with your smile. While close friends and family might notice a difference, most people won’t be able to tell you’ve had cosmetic dental work.
