Cosmetic Dentistry Q & A

What is cosmetic dentistry?

Cosmetic dentistry focuses on repairing visible dental flaws to improve your smile’s appearance and enhance your overall oral health.

Dr. Wilmore uses advanced technologies in-office to straighten your teeth, repair cosmetic flaws, and enhance the overall aesthetics of your smile. She prioritizes your safety during cosmetic treatments to protect the health of your teeth and gums.

What cosmetic dentistry services are available?

As a cosmetic dentistry specialist, Dr. Wilmore provides several cosmetic dentistry services, including:

Teeth whitening

Professional teeth whitening can whiten and brighten your smile by 8-10 shades. Treatment also removes deep-set stains from drinking coffee and/or wine and chewing or smoking tobacco.

Dr. Wilmore uses the Boost professional strength whitening system that’s safe and more effective than over-the-counter products. She provides in-office treatments and take-home mouth trays you can use at home to maintain a brilliant smile.

Invisalign®

The Invisalign teeth-straightening system uses a series of clear plastic aligners that gently move your teeth. Invisalign straightens your smile faster and more comfortably than traditional braces.

Dr. Wilmore uses the iTero® scanning technology to customize your aligners and to predict the movement of your teeth over time.

Tooth-colored fillings

Tooth-colored fillings replace metal fillings to enhance the appearance of your smile. Dr. Wilmore uses a composite resin material that matches the shade of your natural teeth.

Cosmetic bonding

Cosmetic bonding uses a liquid cosmetic resin that matches the natural shade of your teeth to repair chipped teeth and reshape slightly misaligned teeth in just one visit.

Porcelain veneers

Porcelain veneers are thin, porcelain shells that fit over the front surface of your teeth to strengthen cracked, chipped, or misshapen teeth and restore a healthy smile.

When should I consider cosmetic dentistry?

You can schedule a cosmetic dentistry consultation with Dr. Wilmore if you’re unhappy with your smile because your teeth are:

  • Chipped
  • Cracked
  • Crooked
  • Gapped
  • Too small
  • Misaligned
  • Discolored

Dr. Wilmore can also provide tooth-colored fillings to replace old-fashioned metal fillings that darken your teeth.

During your evaluation, Dr. Wilmore assesses your oral health and can identify which cosmetic dentistry services are right for you. She customizes a care plan using one or more treatments to improve the appearance and symmetry of your smile.
