Cosmetic Dentistry in Chattanooga, TN

Your Chattanooga dentist wants you to achieve the best oral health possible; however, they also want you to feel confident that your smile looks its best. You may not have ever considered how your smile can affect your self-esteem, but if you don’t like the way your smile looks, you are less likely to feel confident when you’re out with friends, on a date, or making a presentation at work.

If you are unhappy with your smile, cosmetic dentistry can help. Today’s cosmetic dental procedures are not just for the rich and famous anymore. More and more people are realizing they can have a whiter, straighter smile for much less than they thought possible.

Cosmetic Treatments to Help You Love Your SmileA smiling woman getting a dental exam

Our Chattanooga dental office can combine one or more dental treatments to give you the smile you’ve always wanted. When you visit us for a cosmetic consultation, we can create a customized treatment plan including any of the following:

Teeth Whitening

Whitening your teeth is one of the simplest and most cost-effective cosmetic improvements you can make. We offer both in-office and at-home professional whitening systems for your convenience. Whichever method you choose, rest assured that your results will be dramatic and much more effective than the over-the-counter whitening kits you can buy at the store.

In-office whitening – For our in-office teeth whitening system, we will carefully choose the appropriate whitening gel depending on your whitening objectives. We will use custom-made applicator trays to give you a comfortable and safe experience.

Because our custom whitening trays keep the whitening gel from leaking onto your gums, your mouth won’t become irritated by the whitening gel. In only one professional whitening session, your teeth will be six to eight shades lighter. This whitening treatment is perfect if you have a wedding, upcoming vacation, or class reunion and want to look your best.

At-home whitening – If you prefer the convenience of whitening your teeth on your schedule and in the comfort of your own home, one of our professional at-home whitening kits might be your best option.

Whether you choose a custom at-home whitening kit or the Opalescence Whitening Kit, our dental team will give you detailed instructions on how to use the products, and we will be available to answer your questions every step of the way. You can also use your at-home whitening kits to touch up your results over time.

Tooth-Colored Fillings

If you need a filling, two dental materials can be used to preserve your natural tooth: amalgam or composite resin. Both are safe and effective, but composite resin is more pleasing to the eye. That’s why tooth-colored fillings made from composite resin are a better cosmetic choice because they will closely match the rest of your teeth, giving you a seamless look.

We can use tooth-colored fillings for both your front and back teeth, and if you have older amalgam fillings, we can replace them with composite resin as part of your smile makeover.

Dental Bonding

Your Chattanooga dentist can also use composite resin for a procedure known as dental bonding. If your front teeth are discolored or misshapen, we can “bond” the resin to them, making them a more aesthetically pleasing size, shape, and color. Dental bonding is a popular, affordable, minimally invasive cosmetic treatment with fast, effective results.

Tooth ReplacementA smiling man in the dentist's chair

If you have one or more missing teeth, you know how it can keep you from eating your favorite foods or speaking correctly. However, gaps in your smile can cause your other teeth to shift, not to mention it isn’t very attractive. At Bridge Dental Care, we offer several tooth replacement options to help your oral health and give you a smile you can be proud of for the rest of your life.

Dental crowns and bridges – A dental crown can be used to cover, protect, and strengthen a weakened tooth after a root canal or extensive decay, but it can also improve the aesthetic look of your smile.

Dental crowns are also used to support a dental bridge. If you are missing several teeth in a row, we can place dental crowns on either side of the gap in your smile and then attach prosthetic teeth to the crowns to give you a more beautiful smile.

Dentures and partials – Whether you are missing some or all of your teeth in your upper or lower arch, we can fit you with partial or complete dentures. When you replace your teeth with dentures or partials, you will regain your confidence and be able to eat healthy foods again.
