We being our smile makeovers by repairing any tooth decay in your smile. Tooth-colored fillings are an attractive way to fill cavities. Old fashioned metal fillings contain potentially dangerous mercury and are visible when you smile.
Tooth-colored fillings are made out of composite resin, a durable mix of plastic and glass. At Sanders Family Dental in Mansfield, TX, our tooth-colored fillings are colored to match the shade of your natural smile. We can fill existing cavities with tooth-colored fillings, or use them to replace existing metal fillings.
We can also use composite resin (the same material used in tooth-colored fillings) to fix other flaws in your small through a process called cosmetic bonding. Cosmetic bonding is a completely painless process. Most of the time we don’t even need to numb your mouth.
Cosmetic bonding is a quick way to repair certain flaws in your smile. If you have minor cracks or chips in your teeth, we can use cosmetic bonding to repair them. If you have a small gap between your teeth, we can can close them with cosmetic bonding.
For larger flaws, we may recommend veneers. Veneers are a permanent way to cover damaged teeth, misshapen teeth, or close large gaps in your smile. We can also use veneers to cover deeply discolored or stained teeth, if your teeth don’t respond to professional teeth whitening.
Veneers are a thin facing of ceramic material designed to look like your natural teeth. We generally remove a little enamel from your existing teeth and then painlessly bond them into place. Veneers are durable and look great.
If you suffer from a “gummy” smile which appears unbalanced, we can help! At Sanders Family Dental in Mansfield, TX, we offer gum reshaping and teeth recontouring. We can use these services to balance the amount of gum and tooth which is visible when you smile.
If you have crooked teeth, then you may be a candidate for Invisalign orthodontics. Invisalign is alternative to traditional adult braces which use metal brackets and wires. Invisalign uses clear aligners to painlessly realign your teeth. Invisalign is an incredibly discreet option, no one will even notice when you’re wearing your aligners!
Invisalign also works much faster than traditional adult braces, making them a great choice for working professionals. Treatment with Invisalign generally only takes about a year. Because the aligners are removable, you’ll never have to limit your dietary choices or struggle to brush and floss your teeth.
