What Is
Cosmetic Dentistry?
/
Cosmetic dentistry is a field designed specifically to improve the appearance of your smile, with treatments like veneers and whitening. It differs from restorative dentistry treatments like crowns and dental implants because its primary dental goal does not involve your oral health. However, as our Waco dentists will explain, cosmetic dentistry can still improve your wellness.
Not a Fan of Braces? We Offer Two Discreet Orthodontic Options
At our Waco, TX-area dental office, you don't have to deal with bulky or noticeable braces. Instead, you can enjoy effective treatment from subtle clear aligners like Invisalign® and SureSmile®. They're particularly popular for busy adult patients who want to refine their smile without using brackets and wires, but we're able to treat teenage patients as well.
Invisalign
Out of all the clear aligner brands, Invisalign is probably the most well-known. Using a progressive series of aligners composed of SmartTrack® material, Invisalign repositions your teeth over time. Whether you're a teenager or an adult, you can refine your teeth with virtually invisible clear aligners.
SureSmile
Like Invisalign, SureSmile uses successive clear aligners to straighten your smile. It also has a few distinct benefits of its own. In some cases, treatment costs are lower overall and some patients may be able to see results more quickly. That said, Invisalign can sometimes provide better results depending on your needs.
Clear Aligners Have Health Benefits
/
Did you know that clear aligners can improve your dental health? That's because they make it easier for you to floss and brush. In turn, that prevents plaque buildup and gum disease, making cosmetic dental procedures an important part of your overall health.
We Conduct Teeth Whitening Using The KöR Whitening Deep Bleaching System
To make teeth whitening easy for Waco-area patients, we offer two choices from the effective KöR Whitening Deep Bleaching™ System. Each uses custom dental trays designed just for you. Not sure which option is best? Contact our team for a cosmetic dental consultation.
Why Pick In-Office Whitening?
-
Superior Results
In-office whitening offers brighter and more noticeable results because of its stronger formula. It's also able to reach deeper into your enamel for more substantial whitening. -
Dentist-Directed Care
By having your cosmetic treatment done at our dentistry practice, you can have more complete peace of mind. Our dentists will always be on hand to answer questions and will direct your full treatment. -
Quicker Treatment
Even accounting for travel to our dentistry office, it takes much less time for you to finish in-office whitening. It takes about three appointments, as opposed to two weeks.
Why Pick At-Home Whitening?
-
Convenience
With at-home care, there's no obligation to leave your home for each whitening session. Once you have your custom trays, you can wear them whenever and wherever you want. -
Support Available
Even though you'll be doing your treatment at home, you can always call our Waco-area team any time you have questions or concerns — an advantage over-the-counter whitening doesn't provide. -
Reduced Sensitivity
The formula used for at-home whitening can actually be a huge benefit. Patients with sensitive teeth will likely find this option more comfortable.
