Let’s Talk About Your Smile

How do you like your smile? At The Fort Collins Dentist, we know it’s easy to be your own worst critic. But we also know lots of people don’t care for one aspect or another of their smile. We can improve any smile with cosmetic dentistry.

Maybe you have a tooth that’s been chipped since middle school, or a gap between your front teeth that’s been there since forever. Or maybe your smile has grown dull and yellow over the years.

Popular Procedures

There are cosmetic dentistry procedures that can address just about any smile issue you might have.

  • Porcelain veneers – Thin shells of medical-grade porcelain are designed to fit over the front side of your teeth. They’ll hide chips, cracks, gaps, and other flaws. They’re custom-made to your teeth, look totally natural, and leave you with a great new smile.
  • Bonding – Bonding is another way to correct any flaws in your teeth. A special material is bonded to a tooth, and shaped to create a strong structure that looks fabulous.
  • Crowns – Dental crowns are fitted over teeth that are discolored or in need of restoring due to damage or decay. They are long-lasting and strong.
  • Whitening – Teeth whitening is an easy, popular procedure that lightens the color of your teeth. The same whitening agents found in whitening toothpastes, but at much higher concentrations, bleach out years of stains and other discolorations and give you a dazzling smile.
  • Dental implants – Dental implants replace missing teeth. A titanium post is inserted into the jaw and fuses with the bone. An artificial tooth goes on top. Implants look and function like natural teeth.

At The Fort Collins Dentist, our cosmetic dentistry can transform your smile into something special. People from North Laramie, Cheyenne, Greeley, and South Berthoud also come to our practice for extractions, TMJ treatment, and crowns . Call to schedule an appointment with us today!

It Doesn’t Take Long To Beautify Your Smile

At The Fort Collins Dentist, we can improve your smile with cosmetic dentistry. Possibilities include restoring cracked or discolored teeth, straightening them, or even replacing those that are missing.

We all want to have the best possible smiles, but cosmetic dentistry is more than just appearance. Straight teeth are easier to care for, and make for a healthier smile. That may explain why clear braces are so popular. They can straighten your teeth, and are almost undetectable as you wear them.

Also in demand are porcelain veneers. They can transform your appearance and are minimally invasive. A thin layer of tooth enamel is removed before veneers are permanently attached to your teeth. After that, you’ve got a mega-watt smile.

Dental implants are, in many ways, one of the most significant advances in the history of dentistry. Titanium posts inserted in the jaw can support one or more replacement teeth that look and function like the real thing.

At The Fort Collins Dentist, cosmetic dentistry can restore your smile. People from North Laramie, Cheyenne, Greeley, and South Berthoud also come to us for complete general dentistry. Contact us today!

Has Your Smile Lost Its Luster?

Has your smile lost its luster? Are your teeth discolored? If flashing a pearly white smile is important to you, cosmetic dentistry from The Fort Collins Dentist can help.

Whether your teeth have been stained by years of sipping dark-colored drinks, or smoking has left them brown and dull, we can restore the whiteness and give new life to your smile.

Maybe you have injured a tooth, causing it to turn gray. We offer several solutions to restore the color to a tooth. When you come in for a consultation we will determine which cosmetic dental procedure is optimal for your teeth.

Two of the most popular procedures we offer are dental veneers and teeth whitening.

  • Dental veneers are thin shells of medical-grade ceramic. They are permanently attached to the front of your teeth. People love them because they mask flaws like cracks and chips, and gaps between teeth.
  • Teeth whitening can transform discolored teeth, removing years of stains or yellowing. We offer in-office whitening and a take-home kit. Both of them surpass any over-the-counter product you’ll find at the store.

At The Fort Collins Dentist, we restore smiles with cosmetic dentistry every day. People from North Laramie, Cheyenne, Greeley, and South Berthoud trust us with their smiles, and also come to our office for general and restorative dentistry. Contact us today!

Cosmetic Dentistry vs. General Dentistry

Categories: Cosmetic dentistry, Dental crowns, Dental Implants, Dental veneers, Teeth Whitening

Fort Collins Cosmetic Dentistry

This post from The Fort Collins Dentist describes the ways that general dentistry and cosmetic dentistry are different.

Family dentistry, also called general dentistry, is dedicated to preventing and treating oral diseases such as cavities and gum disease. When a problem is diagnosed, like a cavity between two teeth, a general dentist will establish the best way to restore the tooth involved.

Cosmetic dentists offer elective dental procedures that make a smile more attractive. Available procedures include teeth whitening, dental implants, porcelain veneers, and dental crowns.

Many dentists provide both general and cosmetic dentistry. In some cases there is some overlap. For example, if a patient comes in after receiving an injury that chipped a front tooth, the tooth must be restored to prevent decay. The tooth is also less structurally sound, so it is vulnerable to further damage. In addition, the tooth affects the overall appearance of the smile.

At The Fort Collins Dentist we want our patients to have healthy smiles that look great! General dentistry achieves the first goal, and cosmetic dentistry the second. Find out why patients from North Laramie, Cheyenne, Greeley, and South Berthoud trust us with their smiles. Contact us today!

Aesthetic Dental Transformations in Fort Collins

In this article from The Fort Collins Dentist, we take a look at three procedures often used in cosmetic dentistry.

  1. Dental Implants: Implants are transforming dentistry. For most patients, a dental implant is the prime solution for a missing tooth. A dental implant is a metal – usually titanium – rod implanted into the bone to replace the missing root of a tooth that has been extracted. The crown and supporting structure are securely attached to the post. When the final crown is placed, the dental implant is indistinguishable from a natural tooth in function and appearance.
  2. Porcelain Veneers: Dental veneers are thin shells of medical-grade ceramic. We attach them to the front of your teeth to cover chips or cracks, gaps, and other imperfections. they leave you with a fantastic smile!
  3. Tooth Whitening: If you had tooth decay in the past, you may notice staining on your teeth. Professional whitening can lighten your teeth by several shades, significantly improving your smile without the need for an invasive procedure.

At The Fort Collins Dentist, we use cosmetic dentistry to improve the smiles of patients every day. People from North Laramie, Cheyenne, Greeley, and South Berthoud also come to our practice for complete general dentistry. Contact us today!

How Can You Improve Your Smile Quickly?

Porcelain Veneers

With porcelain veneers from The Fort Collins Dentist, you can revamp your smile without any extensive dental work.

Porcelain veneers are glass-like, wafer-thin covers that are attached to the front of your teeth. Porcelain has been used in dentistry for many years because no other restorative material is such an excellent match for natural tooth enamel.

The material is translucent and can be matched to the color of any tooth. It is stronger than enamel and resists stains.

Veneers are a great choice for addressing minor cosmetic issues with your smile. They can cover chips, cracks, and gaps between teeth.

They are also good in cases of enamel loss. Teeth that have reduced enamel due to highly acidic foods and drinks, or from years of too-vigorous brushing, can be successfully treated.

Standard porcelain veneers require the removal of a thin later of tooth enamel. Once in place, the outer surface does more than simply fix your aesthetics; it keeps your smile protected from further damage!

At The Fort Collins Dentist, we offer porcelain veneers and a host of other cosmetic dentistry procedures. Ask us which would be right for you! We’ve helped patients in North Laramie, Cheyenne, Greeley, and South Berthoud. Request an appointment today!

You can use veneers to fix stained or chipped teeth, slightly crooked teeth, or abnormally spaced teeth. They are very strong, look completely natural, and are made to match the color and shape of your teeth.

A Facelift For Your Teeth?

Posted on
Categories: Cosmetic dentistry, Dental veneers

porcelain veneers price North Laramie

Porcelain veneers are thin shells of medical-grade porcelain or resin. At The Fort Collins Dentist, one of their uses is to improve the appearance of a smile. They’re like a facelift for your teeth!

Are there aspects of your smile you don’t like? It might be a tooth damaged with a chip or crack; a tooth that is worn down, or stained; it may be a couple of teeth with an unsightly gap between them. Porcelain veneers can correct these issues.

Veneers are custom-fitted to the tooth or teeth being treated. After being created by a dental technician, the veneers are permanently bonded to the front of the tooth. A thin layer of enamel must be removed before bonding, so once they’re on, they’re on for good.

Although veneers are usually thought of as cosmetic, they can be used to repair damaged tooth enamel, too. Once a veneer is bonded to a tooth, it is a strong and durable surface.

Porcelain veneers from The Fort Collins Dentist really are like a facelift for your teeth! People from North Larmie, Cheyenne, Greeley, and South Berthoud come to our office for veneers and other cosmetic dentistry services. Call our office to find out what we can do for your smile!

What Can Veneers Do For Your Smile?

Posted on
Categories: Cosmetic dentistry, Dental veneers

porcelain veneers cost North Laramie

In this blog post from The Fort Collins Dentist we are taking the time to answer a common question: “What exactly are veneers, and how are they used in cosmetic dentistry?”

Dental veneers are thin shells made from medical-grade ceramic or composite resin. They are custom-made for each patient and are used to improve the appearance of teeth. Unlike a dental crown, which covers the entire visible portion of a tooth, a veneer covers just the front part of the tooth. They are usually used on teeth that have been chipped, stained, decayed, or that are slightly crooked.

Veneers are one of the most popular options available from modern cosmetic dentistry. They are so effective they’ve even been called “instant orthodontics.” Technically, of course, they are not orthodotnics – but they’re very strong, and can work wonders on any smile.

One thing to remember: a thin layer of enamel must be removed from the front of each tooth being covered with a veneer, in order for them to properly adhere. Once they’re cemented in place, they are permanent. But once they are in place, you’ll have the best-looking teeth of anyone you know.

To find out more about dental veneers, please call us at The Fort Collins Dentist. Patients from North Larmie, Cheyenne, Greeley, and South Berthoud come to our practice for veneers and other cosmetic dentistry. Make an appointment today!
