Veneers

Patients with several aesthetic dental flaws often feel overwhelmed when trying to select the right cosmetic options. Thankfully, veneers may be the preferred solution you’re looking for. These thin, customized coverings are designed to fit directly over natural teeth, mimicking their appearance and hiding problems behind a new, flawless smile.

Dr. Shah uses veneers to correct a wide variety of aesthetic concerns, including stains, gaps, chips, cracks, misaligned teeth, and more. If you’re unhappy with your current look, our team can alter the size and shape of certain teeth using these uniquely designed restorations.

Veneers are also considered an easier, faster solution than orthodontic treatment (in some cases), and the quality material that is used is more resistant to staining than natural tooth enamel.

All-Ceramic Tooth Restorations

When older patients think of dental restorations, they probably imagine noticeable gold and silver materials that stick out in a natural smile. Here at South Arlington Dental Care, the last thing our team wants is to force you to choose between oral health and aesthetic quality – that’s why we provide crowns, bridges, inlays, onlays, and other restorations crafted from beautiful, all-ceramic materials. In addition to their lifelike appearance, these restorations offer patients strength, increased biocompatibility, and comfort that can be enjoyed for years to come.

Cosmetic Bonding

A small chip, fracture, or stain no longer needs to be the focus of your attention each time you look in the mirror. Instead, you can ask us about cosmetic bonding. Using composite resin that is made up of a mixture of ultra-fine plastic and glass particles, the solution is designed to match your natural enamel shade and applied directly onto the surface of the tooth. Once sculpted, the resin is cured using ultraviolet light so that it hardens and can be polished for a beautiful finish in just one appointment.

Teeth Whitening

Everyone loves being able to show off a beautifully white smile, but the sad truth is that most teeth naturally grow darker as we age. Noticeable stains also accumulate because of coffee, wine, and certain medications. Here in Pantego, Dr. Shah can help you regain an amazingly bright look with teeth whitening. Both in-office and at-home options are available!

If you’re looking for fast results, our in-office procedure with Boost may be the best choice. During this treatment, we’ll use high-grade whitening gel to dramatically lighten teeth by several shades. The procedure is simple and comfortable – and best of all, you’ll be done after an hour-long appointment.

If you’d prefer to achieve more gradual changes, Dr. Shah can recommend a customized at-home whitening kit. For this process, our team provides professional–grade whitening gel and oral trays – patients simply wear both together for a certain amount of time each day. After a few weeks of diligent use, you should notice dazzling changes.

Gum Recontouring / Crown Lengthening

When excess gum tissue gets in the way, your chances of periodontal disease increase. With the help of gum recontouring, Dr. Shah can use laser dentistry to gently remove unnecessary tissues to reveal more of your natural tooth structure. A similar process known as crown lengthening can be performed if you require a custom restoration (i.e., dental crown) but do not have enough tooth structure to hold it in place.

Smile Makeovers

Smile makeovers are customized treatment plans that Dr. Shah can create should you have a variety of cosmetic flaws that cannot be addressed with a single service. After evaluating your smile and discussing your goals, she will integrate multiple treatment options so that all imperfections are taken care of, producing a new and improved, one-of-a-kind smile.
