Cosmetic Dentistry for a Dazzling Smile

Cosmetic dentistry is the next step in mouth restoration and if you are looking for something that will give you a beautiful smile, talk to Dr. Carroll Butler about porcelain veneers, professional tooth whitening, cosmetic dental bonding or cosmetic dental crowns. A cosmetic dentistry consultation with your Kerrville dentist is the first step towards a brand new smile.

Porcelain Veneers and Cosmetic Dentistry

Porcelain veneers are used for chipped, cracked, and stained teeth. Teeth that are too long or too short can also be altered with dental veneers. Keep in mind that porcelain veneers are permanent, as a portion of the tooth needs to be removed for an accurate fit. Veneers are thin sheets of porcelain that are matched to the rest of your smile. Made from dental grade porcelain, dental veneers are strong as long as you practice good oral hygiene and take care of them.

Cosmetic Dental Bonding

An alternative to veneers, cosmetic dental bonding is completed in a single dental appointment and is also reversible. During your bonding appointment, your cosmetic dentistry team in Kerrville will choose a shade from the color guide for the dental resin. After a color is chosen your tooth or teeth are roughened up with a solution. This makes for a much stronger bond. Once your teeth are prepared, Dr. Butler will apply the resin molding it into shape before curing with a laser or light.

Cosmetic Dental Crowns

Cosmetic dental crowns are less invasive than they used to be thanks to CEREC®. CEREC® is an amazing chairside procedure that your Kerrville cosmetic dentist uses to repair teeth that are chipped and cracked. CEREC® is also used for teeth that are badly damaged. In a single dental appointment, you can have a brand new crown as the entire procedure takes place in your Kerrville dental office.
