Cosmetic Dentistry

If you have always taken care of your teeth, issues like discoloration, chips, and other smile flaws can be incredibly disappointing. Fortunately, most patients who have taken care of their smiles over the years are excellent candidates for cosmetic dentistry in Bastrop, TX.

Of course, to be sure, we have you in for a cosmetic chat with the dentist. At this visit, you’ll learn whether you’re a candidate for cosmetic dentistry. In some cases, the dentist suggests pretreatments to make you a better candidate if issues are found.

You’ll also learn about the various options and how they’ll work for you, and a team member can talk to you about the treatment schedule.

In our dental office, we offer the following cosmetic dentistry options:

  • Professional teeth whitening
  • Clear braces
  • Dental implants
  • Tooth-colored restorations
  • Dental veneers
  • Tooth bonding

We also have options that work with most patient budgets.

As we age, the natural brightness of our teeth can become dull or faded—even with good oral health and habits.

Thankfully, professional teeth whitening treatments can reverse enamel staining and give you back a youthful and polished smile. 

How Teeth Whitening Works

Your enamel has tiny, microscopic pores that allow food particles to dull your smile. Over time, your enamel can thin, making the yellow layer of dentin visible. If you drink coffee, wine, or eat acidic foods, you could be contributing to the stains that start appearing on your teeth. Smoking tobacco is also a common culprit to yellow teeth. 

Professional teeth whitening can remove stains and whiten your smile by eight shades, and usually in under an hour. If you prefer whitening your teeth at home, we also offer custom take-home kits for your convenience. 

Dental Cleanings in Bastrop, TX

At CS Family Dentistry, we recommend getting a professional dental cleaning before your teeth whitening treatment. We can remove any plaque or tartar to ensure smooth and consistent results. While teeth whitening is not permanent, we can offer tips on how to maintain your white teeth for up to a year. We also provide touch-ups when needed to keep your teeth as bright as possible. 

If you would like to learn more about the professional whitening treatments that we offer, please give us a call at any time.

Cosmetic dentistry concentrates on smile aesthetics, while general dentistry is about maintaining your teeth and gums.

Ideally, keeping up with oral health maintenance makes you a better candidate for cosmetic dentistry in Bastrop, TX.

About General Dentistry

General dentistry is an offshoot of preventive dentistry. In other words, exams and cleanings (preventive) lower your risks of needing general dentistry, which includes therapies like cavity treatment, periodontal treatment, extractions, and root canal therapy.
