About Cosmetic Dentistry

Cosmetic dentistry in Westminster, CO, is a branch of dentistry that deals with appearance. It contains a plentiful menu of services that straighten teeth, replaces lost teeth, restore vibrant colors, and more. The Family Dentist is delighted to offer such services to our clients. 

Do You Need Cosmetic Dentistry?

Cosmetic service for your teeth is a personal choice. Many of our clients obtain our services because they've suffered hits to their self-esteem because of missing, discolored, or crooked teeth. We enjoy helping them find the right treatment to regain the gorgeous smile they lost some time ago. You may find our services helpful and suitable. The first step is to reach out to our facility for a meeting with our dentist. You'll discuss your needs and desires and then conclude whether our cosmetic services are right for you. 

Services Our Office Has for You

We offer an assortment of cosmetic services for your teeth and many general dentistry procedures. These are some of the cosmetic procedures we can perform on you:

  • Dental Implants- Dental implants are highly favorable tooth replacement devices. They can replace teeth you lose to decay and damage. Implants closely resemble natural teeth and can help restore your bite and confidence. 
  • Veneers- Veneers can offer you a quick solution to minor problems. We can glue these thin items to the front of your teeth with dental glue. They can cover up coloring imperfections and correct superficial alignment problems. For example, a veneer might work if a few of your teeth seem to sit back slightly from the rest. The veneer may be able to give the appearance of a fuller smile. 
  • Orthodontics- We offer an array of orthodontic solutions to problems such as crowding, overbites, underbites, crossbites, and gaps. Our list of solutions includes traditional options as well as alternative options, such as Invisalign. We have favorable options for clients of all ages. 
  • Tooth-Colored Fillings- Tooth-colored fillings are an excellent option if you want to repair damaged areas with a more discreet solution. They are popular alternatives to traditional amalgam fillings. Our dentist can install such fillings at your request. 
  • Crowns and Bridges- We use crowns and bridges in an assortment of restorative and cosmetic procedures. They can truly bridge the gap left by tooth loss and decay. 
  • Tooth Whitening- We're pleased to offer advanced tooth whitening services to clients who have experienced discoloration. Ask about our innovative processes. 

Dr. Smith is ready to help you restore the gorgeous smile you want to regain. Contact The Family Dentist at 303-427-8690 to schedule a consultation about cosmetic dentistry in Westminster, CO.

Let Veneers Renew Your Smile

Is your smile not entirely up to the quality that you'd hoped, and you aren't sure what to do about it? Thankfully, the best veneers Westminster CO, has to offer may help you. These tools installed by Dr. Alexander Smith at Family Dentist provide you with many benefits that make them well worth consideration. Here are a few of the common advantages of investing in this unique dental tool for your health.

Enhances Your Overall Appearance 

The best dental adjustments work to create a look and feel as close to your natural tooth as possible. And this unique treatment option can provide just that. The porcelain material will look as close to your normal tooth as possible, providing a secure and robust surface that will remain resistant and resilient for years to come and keep your smile looking great.

Prevent Other Types of Oral Damage 

Did you know that Westminster CO, veneers can prevent other types of dental problems? It's true! That's just one reason why they've become a popular option for so many people and dentists. Just a few of the most common issues that they may help prevent include:

  • Chipped teeth that worsen with time as more damage occurs 
  • Discoloration that stains your smile and makes it less attractive 
  • Gaps between your teeth that may embarrass you 
  • Cavities that may otherwise worsen and become wider
  • Enamel-related damage that could threaten your teeth 

They provide all of these benefits by placing a simple porcelain shield over the damaged areas. This shield will not only look like your regular teeth but be stronger, as well. With proper maintenance and care, you might be able to get them to last for years to come.

Enhances Your Durability 

Lastly, this unique dental treatment method also helps to enhance your overall dental durability. That's because their porcelain material is solid and will last longer than regular teeth. As a result, some people install this option over their teeth even if they don't damage them. 

With proper care and brushing, they might even last the rest of your life. However, it is essential to know that you must repair any damage to them ASAP and work with your dentist to ensure that they last as long as possible. 

Get the Care You Deserve 

At the Family Dentist, Dr. Alexander Smith can provide you with the great veneers in Westminster CO, that you want. And when you call (303) 427-8690, you can set up an inspection and repair appointment that takes your oral health into full consideration. So please contact us as soon as possible if you have tooth damage and want to make sure you get it treated ASAP.

Renew Your Smile With Veneers

Big changes in your appearance don't have to involve extensive or time-consuming dental work. Dental veneers offer a simple way to veneersrevitalize your smile. Westminster, CO, dentist Dr. Alexander Smith explains how veneers can transform your smile.

Veneers cover common flaws

Veneers are tooth-shaped pieces of porcelain that are just about as thick as a contact lens. When they're applied to the fronts of your teeth with dental cement, they make imperfections in your tooth enamel disappear. Before you can receive your veneers, a tiny amount of tooth enamel must be removed in our Westminster office. A local anesthetic may be used during this step in the process, although so little enamel is removed that you might not need it. After the enamel is removed, an impression of your teeth will be made. The impression will be used by dental lab technicians who will create your new porcelain veneers.

Veneers are an excellent choice if you have visible chips or cracks in teeth. Although these problems may not threaten the integrity of your teeth, they can be unsightly. Applying a veneer or two conceals flaws and offers a dramatic smile transformation. Veneers can also be used to conceal discolorations caused by trauma to a tooth, tetracycline use, large fillings or root canal therapy. Is the surface of a tooth pitted, bumpy or uneven? Adding a veneer keeps those imperfections hidden away.

Changing the shape or length of a tooth is easy with veneers

Does one of your teeth look a little odd? Sometimes, the rest of your teeth can be perfectly straight, while one tooth is a little crooked or twisted. Because the problem only affects one or two teeth, there's no need for orthodontic treatment, but that doesn't mean that the problem can't be corrected. Your new veneer will ensure that the tooth matches the shape of surrounding teeth.

Veneers also extend the length of short teeth. When your permanent teeth first appeared, you may have noticed that one tooth was shorter than others, but assumed that there was nothing you could do to correct the flaw. Short teeth can also occur if you grind your teeth at night. Thanks to veneers, a noticeably short tooth will no longer be an issue.

Are you ready to find out if veneers are a good option for you? Call Westminster, CO, dentist Dr. Alexander Smith at (303) 427-8690 to schedule an appointment.

All About Cosmetic Dentistry

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 cosmetic dentistrythe 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.
