What are some of the more common cosmetic dentistry services available at our family and cosmetic dentistry practice?

  • Teeth contouring. Sometimes the shape and angles of a tooth can cause it to stand out in the smile—and not in a good way. Teeth contouring uses composite resin to reshape the tooth and improve its overall appearance.
  • Porcelain veneers. Covering imperfections with thin porcelain shells called porcelain veneers is the best way to address various issues in just two appointments. Porcelain veneers can cover teeth that are stained, chipped, or gapped.
  • Professional teeth whitening. With in-office power bleaching, patients can brighten their smile several shades whiter while resting comfortably in the dentist’s chair. Same-day results are achieved with this method of whitening.
  • Tooth-colored fillings. Composite resin bonding is used to fill areas of decay and avoid the dark discoloration often associated with older materials such as silver amalgam fillings.
  • Clear braces. Realign your smile without braces, and instead, use our clear aligner trays to reposition the teeth without embarrassing metal brackets and wires covering your smile.
  • Laser gum surgery. Patients with a gummy smile or a misaligned gum line may benefit from laser gum surgery to safely remove excess gum tissue.

FAQs

How do I know which cosmetic dentistry treatment is right for my smile?

Every patient’s goals are different, which is why we start with a personalized consultation. Dr. Khaja Mohsinuddin will examine your teeth, discuss your concerns, and review the results you hope to achieve. Whether you’re looking to fix minor imperfections, brighten discoloration, or completely reshape your smile, we’ll recommend options tailored specifically to your needs, facial features, and budget so you get the most natural and flattering outcome.

Are cosmetic dentistry procedures only for aesthetic improvement?

Although cosmetic dentistry focuses on appearance, many treatments also improve oral function and long-term health. For example, bonding and veneers can strengthen damaged enamel, while clear aligners can correct misalignment that leads to uneven wear or jaw discomfort. Laser gum contouring can make brushing easier. Enhancing your smile often means improving your overall oral wellness at the same time.

How long do results from cosmetic treatments typically last?

Longevity varies based on the procedure and your oral habits. Professional whitening may last several months to a year with good home care. Veneers can last 10 – 15 years or longer with proper maintenance. Bonding and contouring are durable but may require occasional touch-ups. Straightening your teeth with clear aligners provides permanent results when you follow your retainer routine. Our team will review expected lifespan and upkeep during your visit.

Is professional teeth whitening better than store-bought kits?

Yes. Over-the-counter whitening products can be unpredictable and often fail to deliver noticeable or even results. Professional whitening performed at Total Health Dental uses powerful, controlled ingredients that brighten teeth safely and effectively, often several shades lighter in one visit. As the treatment is supervised by a dentist, sensitivity is minimized, and results are faster, longer-lasting, and far more consistent than retail whitening options.

What concerns can porcelain veneers fix?

Veneers are one of the most versatile cosmetic solutions available. They can correct discoloration, chips, small gaps, uneven edges, and teeth that don’t match the shape or size of surrounding teeth. Made from thin, durable porcelain, veneers blend seamlessly with natural enamel. In just two appointments, they can provide a dramatically brighter, more symmetrical smile without extensive reshaping or orthodontic treatment.

Are clear aligners an option for adults who have never had braces?

Absolutely! Clear aligners are ideal for adults seeking straighter teeth without visible brackets or wires. They gently reposition teeth over time and are removable, making eating, brushing, and social situations more convenient. Many adults choose aligners because the treatment is discreet, comfortable, and fits easily into their professional and personal lifestyles. During your evaluation, we’ll determine whether aligners can address your alignment concerns.

Can cosmetic dentistry improve a “gummy smile” or uneven gum line?

Yes. Laser gum contouring allows us to reshape excess gum tissue to create a more balanced, proportionate smile. The procedure is precise, minimally invasive, and provides immediate improvement with little downtime. Patients with a gummy smile or irregular gum levels often find that small adjustments dramatically enhance the way their teeth look. Laser technology ensures comfortable treatment and quick healing.
