Cosmetic dentistry addresses aesthetic concerns that patients have with their teeth and overall smile. Cosmetic treatments can correct discoloration, chips or cracks in the teeth, gaps, oddly shaped or sized teeth, and can repair the structure of a tooth with a natural-looking restoration.
A variety of cosmetic treatments, including bonding & contouring, veneers, teeth whitening, and gum surgery can improve a patient’s smile by restoring the appearance of the teeth and gums. Cosmetic dentistry is often not just purely cosmetic, as it can also be used to correct damaged teeth, repair receding gums, and cover up exposed nerves or cracks in the teeth.
As a result, patients feel much more confident in themselves and feel happier. This creates a domino effect for the rest of their lives, as they’re more likely to go to social events, take photos, and can even be more likely to get a promotion or nail a job interview.

Begin Your Virtual ConsultationIn-office whitening is an extremely effective and rapid method used to whiten the teeth in the dental chair. A peroxide-based whitening gel is applied to each of your teeth individually and is activated with a UV light.
We protect your cheeks and soft tissue with the use of cheek protractors and protective gel. You never have to worry about causing oral damage or extreme sensitivity when opting to get a professional whitening by a dentist in Spring, TX.
The shade of your teeth can be lightened by up to 5-10 shades in a single hour-long appointment. If you have severe discoloration, you may require multiple appointments to achieve your desired goals.
This is perfect for special events like weddings, dances, photographs, or business events when you are short on time and your teeth need a quick pick-me-up.
Don’t have the time to sit for an hour to get a whitening treatment and would rather whiten your teeth from home? Much like over-the-counter whitening trays, we use take-home trays that you’ll wear each day for 2 weeks to gradually whiten your teeth.
Unlike drugstore whitening trays, however, we take impressions of your teeth to create a custom-fit mouthpiece just for you. This ensures that the whitening agent doesn’t come into contact with your gums. We also use a specially formulated peroxide-based whitening gel that is a lower concentration than in-office whitening.
This is why you need to wear the trays for longer to achieve the same results. If you have sensitive teeth, this is a great option and you are less likely to experience significant sensitivity due to the lower peroxide concentration.
Veneers are thin shells of porcelain that are placed over your existing teeth once some of the natural enamel has been removed to accommodate them. These veneers attach tightly to your enamel, and camouflage and replace the front chewing surfaces of the teeth to cover up imperfections like stained teeth, gaps between teeth, misshapen and uneven teeth, and slightly crooked teeth. With a stain-resistant design and long lifespan, they are a great investment for your dream smile.
Lumineers are very similar to traditional veneers. While they look nearly identical, Lumineers are much thinner than veneers. In fact, they’re about the same thickness as a contact lens. Because of this, they can typically be placed in your mouth without removing any enamel. This means that Lumineers are less invasive, and that the procedure is reversible, unlike with traditional veneers.
Dental bonding is an affordable way to improve the aesthetics of your smile. For this treatment, your doctor will apply dental resin directly to your tooth, and use dental instruments to reshape and sculpt the resin. Then, it will be hardened and polished until it looks just like a natural part of your smile, covering up imperfections like minor chips, gaps between teeth, and stains. The treatment is completely non-invasive and takes only one appointment at our office.
Shaping and contouring is a treatment that’s often used alongside bonding. In this treatment, your doctor will use a special instrument to buff away a thin layer of enamel from teeth with points or minor chips, or from uneven teeth. This helps create a more even, aesthetically-appealing smile, particularly when paired with dental bonding. In addition, your doctor may recommend gum sculpting to make the top of the teeth even or add length to shorter teeth.
Gum recession is a common result of gum disease, but can also happen because of overzealous brushing. With the Pinhole Surgery Technique (PST), our team can reverse gum recession in a single, 1-hour appointment.
Your mouth will be cleaned and numbed, then a “pinhole” incision is made in the gum tissue. The gum tissue will then be lifted to place a special collagen strip beneath the gums. These strips stabilize your gums and teeth, and allow your natural gum tissue to heal and regrow, reversing the effects of gum recession and restoring your smile.
