Are you the type to make a New Year’s resolution? Well, even if you’re not, your Houston cosmetic dentist would like to suggest a resolution that we’ll help you keep. Resolve to enhance the appearance of your smile in 2017! Dr. Tamborello and Dr. Bowen offer a number of cosmetic dentistry treatments to help you have the smile you deserve this year.
Tooth-Colored Fillings
If your 77098 dentist says you have a cavity, don’t worry about a dark filling detracting from your smile. Today there are tooth-colored fillings. Made of composite resin material, these fillings are designed to blend in with the natural color of your tooth. Moreover, they are just as durable as metal fillings and offer the added benefit of strengthening the remaining tooth structure.
Teeth Whitening
Over time, teeth tend to darken. The situation is hard to avoid if you happen to be a person who eats and drinks. Every time you take a bite, you run the risk of teeth staining and discoloration. Some foods and beverages are worse—coffee, tea, chocolate, strawberries, tomatoes and other richly colored foods. Likewise, smoking and chewing tobacco are notorious for yellowing your teeth.
At Tamborello & Bowen Cosmetic Dentistry, we offer two kinds of teeth whitening services. For the quickest results, our in-office system only takes about an hour to dramatically whiten your smile. Alternatively, we also offer a take-home system that delivers equally impressive results gradually over a couple of weeks. This system is also great for touch-ups after we’ve whitened your teeth in the office.
Porcelain Veneers
If your smile needs more than a whitening boost to look good, then perhaps you’ll want to consider porcelain veneers. Chips, cracks, fractures and so many other cosmetic imperfections are easily erased with these miracle makers. Each veneer is custom designed and handcrafted so you can be certain that every tooth will be just the right size and shape. Once your natural teeth are prepped, Dr. Tamborello or Dr. Bowen will carefully cement your veneers into place, creating a beautiful new smile.
Invisalign®
If you think wearing braces means that you must endure months of metal brackets and wires, then think again. With Invisalign, you can have a straight smile in less than two years. And because the system uses clear plastic aligners to move teeth, there’s almost nothing to see during your orthodontic treatment. Just slip the clear braces over your teeth and watch as your teeth gradually move closer into alignment.
