Even if you have perfectly straight, healthy teeth, both stains and discolorations can ruin an otherwise beautiful smile. After all, a good oral hygiene routine can fall short in the face of dietary and lifestyle factors such as smoking, medications, and the natural aging process, all of which can diminish your smile over time. A professional teeth whitening treatment is the perfect antidote to surface stains and discolorations. Dr. Alexander Smith, a cosmetic dentist in Westminster, CO, offers cosmetic dentistry services to help you maintain a beautiful, healthy smile at any age—read on to learn what professional teeth whitening can do for you
Professional Teeth Whitening Services from our Westminster Office
These treatments deliver dramatic and lasting results, while also protecting your gums and tooth enamel in the process. The results are different for everyone, but in many cases, the results of a professional teeth whitening treatment can last for as many as five years.
Types of Dental Stains
There are a couple of things that can stain your teeth and dull your smile over time. One of the most common sources is through the food and drinks that come into direct contact with your teeth. Surface whitening treatments and bleaching work best on these types of stains; but they don't work on all types of stains. Dr. Smith will perform a comprehensive dental exam and recommend the best option to whiten and improve your smile. In addition to professional teeth whitening treatments, cosmetic bonding, crowns, and porcelain veneers are also available to cover damaged teeth.

Are you ready to find out the many ways cosmetic dentistry could revamp your smile for the better?
Are you looking to get a smile makeover? Have you been wondering more and more whether you should turn to cosmetic dentistry to get the smile you’ve been dreaming of? If so, this is where our Westminster, CO cosmetic dentist, Dr. Alexander Smith, comes in. We offer a full range of dental services to meet your needs and give you a smile you can be proud of.
Some of the cosmetic dentistry treatments we offer in Westminster include:
Dental Bonding
The same tooth-colored resin that’s used to fill a cavity can also be used to cover aesthetic issues on one or more teeth. Of course, bonding won’t require anesthesia or drilling (unless of course we need to remove decay first). Bonding is great for more conservative changes like covering small stains, chips, cracks and even gaps between teeth without going through extensive or time-consuming cosmetic dentistry.
Contouring
This treatment can be performed on its own or along with dental bonding to help reshape teeth easily and non-invasively. By shaving off a very minute amount of enamel, we can smooth down pointy teeth and improve their shape. Again, just like bonding, it won’t be able to tackle more severe issues but it can be great for smaller problems.
Dental Veneers
If you are dealing with spacing issues, minor misalignments, cracks, chips and discolorations that bonding can’t handle then turn to porcelain veneers. These thin tooth-colored shells are adhered to the front surface of your teeth to cover these flaws so that the only thing people will see is a straight, even and beautiful smile.
Teeth Whitening
Is your coffee habit leading to some pretty nasty dental stains? Or perhaps you are experiencing stains as a result of just getting older. It happens. Fortunately, our dentist has a fast and effective way to get your smile several shades whiter. You can choose to have more than one whitening session to continue to boost your results, while some patients may be thoroughly satisfied with their smile after only one treatment.
If you want to achieve an award-winning smile then put your smile in the hands of our dental experts at The Family Dentist in Westminster, CO. We are here to meet your smile goals.
