Cosmetic dental procedures have gained popularity over the last decade with the amazing technological improvements making it easier and faster to get a bright white smile than ever before. Our approach is to start with the most conservative option and work from there. As each patient’s situation, oral health and goals are different, we take the time to customize a plan just right for you.
I’d like to discuss cosmetic procedures.
Designing the perfect smile for you is a lot like painting a picture or sculpting a statue. The process is as much an art as a science. Your individual facial features and bone structure determine how we approach your smile design. We consider the entire aesthetic, not just the smile. One way we work with patients to design their smile is by taking a series of photos and manipulating the images until the patient sees their perfect smile. Once the preview is there, we can determine which procedures will realistically get them there. Smile design is one of the most impactful and rewarding experiences for both the patient and the dentist. Through a collaborative process we can create a smile makeover plan perfect for you.
Dental veneers can solve many cosmetic dental issues. Veneers are thin porcelain shells that overlay the front of the teeth and are custom-made to match your smile, cover up any imperfections that are causing concern, and make your smile appear more symmetrical and balanced. Veneers can be used to fix single teeth or can be used to rejuvenate your entire smile.
Veneers are long-lasting, stain-resistant and natural-looking. Another benefit of veneers is their capability to improve the color and shape of a tooth or teeth without losing natural healthy tooth structure.
When you decide on veneers, we will discuss your ideal outcome at the first visit, performing a full examination and making sure you are a good candidate. Depending on your individual case, you may need x-rays as well as have impressions made. We’ll also go over what you can expect going forward.
When the actual veneers process begins, your teeth are prepared first, with a minuscule amount of natural tooth material removed to make a model for the lab. Your Victoria dentists may place a set of temporary veneers while your final veneers are being made.
Once your final veneers have made by the lab, you will visit Comprehensive Family Dental for their placement. At this time, we will clean, polish and etch the tooth or teeth, and each veneer will be placed, trimmed, and adhered permanently to your teeth with bonding agent, giving you a symmetrical, star-quality smile you’ll love to show off.
Teeth whitening is a popular way to improve your appearance and brighten your smile. Stubborn stains that don’t respond to regular brushing or flossing can be penetrated by professional teeth whitening systems. Comprehensive Family Dental offers a high-potency teeth whitening solution called KöR®.
If you have ever been disappointed with over-the-counter whitening strips that promised great results, but didn’t deliver, you will love KöR. According to KöR, intrinsic tooth color is a result of large natural pigment and stain molecules trapped within the microstructure of teeth. The larger these molecules are, the more colored molecules they contain, and the darker the teeth appear. The KöR whitening system penetrates through a proprietary KöR Dual-Activated, Tri-Barrel™ Hydremide® Peroxide formulation and delivery system that can get your teeth up to 16 shades whiter.
Dental bonding is a simple procedure that can help fix unsightly tooth issues. If your tooth or teeth are chipped, gapped, or uneven, bonding can often repair these issues in a single visit.
The bonding process involves resurfacing and preparation of the tooth, color matching and application of the bonding resin, which is formed into the shape that looks most natural. Once the bonding resin hardens, your procedure is complete!
With proper care and good luck, bonding can last up to ten years or even longer–and you’re going to love your new smile!
