Our Cosmetic Dental Care Options

When you visit our practice, you can count on us to have the solution you need to accomplish your smile goals. Not only can we offer a wide array of treatments, but we'll also ensure you fully understand your options and can make confident decisions about your treatment plan.

Before we discuss your cosmetic dental care options, our dentist performs a full exam. This will help us better understand your situation and how to address the aesthetic issues that you're concerned about. We'll also look for any signs of health issues such as tooth decay or gum disease. We always perform preventive and restorative treatments before proceeding with cosmetic dental care so that you have a healthy foundation to ensure your results last for as long as possible.

Once your smile is healthy, our dentist will work with you to create a custom plan that considers your goals, budget, and lifestyle. Our cosmetic dentistry services include:

You can select a stand-alone treatment or full-mouth reconstruction to combine several treatments in a comprehensive plan. We tailor our approach to enhance your smile while also promoting your health, both now and in the long term. Our team will also work with specialists if you need advanced treatment for issues like gum disease or missing teeth. You can rest assured that your well-being and goals are always the top priority in every service we provide.

Teeth Whitening for Brighter Smile Appeal

Teeth whitening is a highly popular cosmetic dental option thanks to being quick, safe, and effective at delivering noticeable results. Our practice offers professional-strength whitening in convenient take-home teeth whitening kits. We provide two options for your whitening choices so you can choose the one that best meets your needs:

  • Opalescence Go®: This whitening kit includes custom trays crafted to fit your unique smile. The close fit of the trays allows the gel to spread more evenly across your smile for effective, appealing results.
  • Colgate Optic White®: This take-home kit uses an innovative light-activated formula. Using form-fitting trays connected to a patented LED device, this treatment is designed to deliver vibrant results while minimizing sensitivity.

Our dentist will evaluate your situation, discuss your goals, and recommend the kit that will deliver the optimal results depending on your level of staining, preferences, and other factors. Whichever option you choose, you'll receive potent whitening services monitored by our dentist so you can enjoy a visibly brighter smile.

Dental Veneers to Enhance Your Smile

For an effective, versatile treatment that can address multiple cosmetic issues at once, our custom veneers could be the ideal solution. Our practice uses CEREC milling technology to create beautiful dental veneers in our office for faster treatment and reliable results. We use IPS e.max®, the strongest type of porcelain available, to ensure your veneers last as long as possible. Our dentist is also committed to making your veneers look natural and blend beautifully with your smile. We'll artfully match the shade of each veneer for an exact match to the surrounding teeth. Porcelain veneers can address a wide range of dental issues, including:

  • Chipped Teeth
  • Deep Discoloration
  • Worn or Small Teeth
  • Gaps Between Teeth

SureSmile Clear Aligners for Comfortable Orthodontics

Woman with Clear Aligners

If you have crooked or misaligned teeth, SureSmile offers a discreet and comfortable way to improve the health and appeal of your smile. The clear custom trays gradually shift teeth into their ideal placement. These removable aligners make normal hygiene easy, and you won't have to change your diet or lifestyle.

Our dentist uses our CEREC machine to take accurate and detailed digital impressions. We then use these scans to create your custom aligners. With SureSmile, we can address mild to moderate alignment issues for adults and responsible older teens. Our dentist will evaluate your bite and discuss whether SureSmile orthodontic treatment can help you achieve a straight, uniform smile.

Laser Gum Contouring for Convenience and Precision

If you'd like to alter a gummy smile, we offer laser gum contouring. Using a dental laser allows us to reshape the gums precisely and comfortably, and it also reduces your post-treatment healing time. Our dentist can use the laser to perform gingivectomies to lengthen the crown and expose more of your tooth. We can also perform frenectomies to get rid of excess gum tissue causing a dental gap between the front teeth.

Cosmetic Dentistry FAQs

It's normal to have questions or concerns about our Richmond cosmetic dentistry services. That's why our team is here to answer any that you may have. Some of the most frequently asked questions about cosmetic dentistry include:

Is teeth whitening a permanent cosmetic dentistry option?

No. Teeth whitening is not permanent. It's crucial that you properly maintain your teeth through consistent brushing, flossing, and reducing consuming darkly pigmented foods. If you notice that your teeth are showing signs of discoloration, visit our office for further treatment.

Although it's important that you reduce your consumption of dark-colored foods and drinks like coffee, tea, and tomato sauce, your veneers are highly resistant to changes in shade. If your veneers are beginning to stain, contact our office to schedule the placement of new ones.

How long your veneers last depends entirely on how well you care for them. You can expect your veneers to last around ten years with proper oral care and regular dental visits.

You can breathe easy knowing that we'll take the time to provide detailed instructions on caring for your aligners at home. By using a soft toothbrush, nonabrasive toothpaste, and lukewarm water, you can keep bacteria from forming on the surface of your aligners and ensure they don't reduce in effectiveness.

Immediately following the placement of your veneers, it's normal to experience some sensitivity to hot or cold. However, you can expect any sensitivity to disappear over the next few days as your teeth adapt to their new restorations.
