Do I Need Cosmetic Dentistry?
Modern cosmetic dentistry encompasses a variety of treatments. We may suggest cosmetic solutions if your smile is affected by imperfections such as:
- Cracked, chipped, fractured, or broken teeth
- Gaps and spaces between teeth
- Discolored, yellowed, or stained teeth
- Slightly misaligned or uneven teeth
- Teeth that appear too long or too short
- Misshapen teeth
- Worn-down teeth
Dr. Truong will work closely with you to create a personalized treatment plan, combining one or more of our advanced cosmetic procedures to help you achieve the smile of your dreams.
Our top cosmetic dentistry services at Gateway Oaks Dental include:
Smile Makeovers
A smile makeover is a truly personalized and comprehensive treatment plan designed to transform the appearance of your entire smile. Dr. Truong will consider your facial features, skin tone, hair color, teeth (color, width, length, shape), gum tissue, and lip position to create a balanced, beautiful outcome. This may involve a combination of several cosmetic and restorative procedures to achieve your ideal smile, with options including teeth whitening, veneers, dental crowns, dental implants, orthodontics, and more.
Dental Bonding
Dental bonding is a simple yet effective way to conservatively improve the appearance of your smile. Our skilled dentist applies a tooth-colored composite resin material directly onto the tooth structure. The resin can be precisely shaped and sculpted to correct flaws like chips, cracks, gaps between teeth, or misshapen teeth. Once hardened and polished, it provides a natural-looking, lasting smile enhancement, often completed in just one comfortable visit with little to no tooth preparation.
Dental Veneers
If you're looking for a dramatic smile transformation, dental veneers are an excellent option. Veneers are custom-made shells, typically crafted from high-quality porcelain, that are permanently bonded to the front surface of your teeth. They are ideal for correcting a variety of cosmetic flaws, including deeply stained or discolored teeth, chips, cracks, minor misalignment, or uneven tooth shapes. Veneers are designed to match the natural shade and translucence of your tooth enamel, providing an even, beautiful smile in just a few comfortable visits.
Teeth Whitening with Opalescence®
Unleash a brighter, more youthful smile with professional teeth whitening! Teeth naturally dull or become discolored over time due to aging, diet (coffee, soda), and other factors. At Gateway Oaks Dental, we offer highly effective in-office and convenient take-home teeth whitening options using Opalescence products. Our in-office whitening treatment can brighten your smile by several shades in just one session for immediate results.
For flexible treatment on the go, our take-home kits include custom whitening trays that fit your smile perfectly, allowing you to achieve professional-level whitening at your convenience. Both methods are significantly more reliable and effective than over-the-counter alternatives.
Clear Aligners with SureSmile®
Achieve a straighter smile on your terms with SureSmile clear aligners. This modern orthodontic solution uses a series of custom-made, virtually invisible trays to gradually shift your teeth into their ideal positions. SureSmile aligners are renowned for their transparency and comfort, offering an excellent alternative to traditional braces without the wires and brackets. The aligners are removable for eating and oral hygiene, making treatment convenient while providing predictable results for issues like crowded teeth, gaps, and minor bite irregularities.
Esthetic Injections
We offer cosmetic injections to promote youthful smiles and offer unique therapeutic benefits. While our top esthetic injections are most often associated with wrinkle reduction, they can also be effectively used to alleviate chronic jaw pain, headaches, and discomfort related to temporomandibular joint (TMJ) disorders. By relaxing specific jaw muscles, facial injections can significantly reduce clenching and grinding, providing relief and improving your quality of life.
