Popular Smile Makeover Options

November 28, 2011 @ 07:37 AM — by Dr. Cash

Dental problems come in many different forms, which is why we offer so many different treatments to meet the needs of patients. At our Lexington cosmetic dentistry center, we do our best to find the best procedure to ensure that patients have an aesthetically pleasing smile that is healthy as well. More than anything, we want to make sure that each patient is well-informed about their treatment options so that they can make the best possible decision about their dental health.

What is a smile makeover?

A smile makeover is essentially several dental care treatments combined in order to enhance the dental health and appearance of a patient. There is no one way to perform a smile makeover, so no two smile makeovers are quite alike. We’d like to look at just a few of the most popular treatments used during a smile makeover right now. We encourage you to look through our photo gallery of smile makeover results so you can see just what outcomes we can achieve through the combination of cosmetic and restorative therapies.

Teeth Whitening

For teeth that are stained or discolored in some way, one of the best options to consider is professional teeth whitening. More powerful than over-the-counter treatments, professional teeth whitening can lighten a smile by up to 10 shades in just one visit.

Tooth-Colored Fillings

Safer and more cosmetically sound than metal fillings of the past, tooth-colored fillings are the best way to deal with small amounts of tooth decay and dental caries. Not only are these white fillings non-toxic and practically invisible while in place, but when compared to metal fillings, less tooth structure will need to be removed when prepping a tooth for tooth-colored fillings.

Porcelain Veneers

If you have teeth that are chipped, cracked, severely stained, or slightly misaligned, you may be a good candidate for Lexington porcelain veneers. These thin shells look completely natural then they are in place, giving you a winning smile that you have always wanted.

Invisalign® Orthodontics

Metal braces were the traditional way of dealing with crooked teeth and tooth misalignment. There is an alternative now, however, and that is Invisalign®. The system uses a series of clear plastic aligners to gradually straighten your teeth.

Dental Implants (Implant Dentistry)

When you’re missing a tooth or multiple teeth, dental implants are one of the better options to consider. These artificial tooth roots can hold dentures, dental bridges, or individual dental crowns in place as if they were natural teeth.

Periodontal Treatment

The health and condition of your gums is just as important as your teeth. If you suffer from gum recession or gum disease, laser periodontal treatment and other soft tissue therapies will be very helpful.
