Veneers Create Stunning Smiles in Lewisville

Veneers have myriad applications in Lewisville cosmetic smile dentistry. With veneers, you can transform your smile without significant restorative dental work.

Is your tooth enamel worn and thin? Tooth-colored porcelain veneers have the translucency of healthy tooth enamel. Many Dallas dental clients have received veneers to cover worn enamel. Some believe they look twenty years younger!

Have your teeth developed uneven edges? Tooth grinding, natural wear and other factors can roughen tooth edges. Veneers are a minimally invasive correction for uneven tooth edges. Veneers are a popular treatment for Lewisville cosmetic dentistry patients.

Do you have chips or cracks in your teeth? If your teeth are otherwise healthy, veneers provide a flawless tooth surface. Are your teeth yellow or gray? Veneers can fix that, too. Veneers can be fabricated in any shade to perk up your smile while still blending naturally with your skin tones.

Porcelain veneers are paper-thin, tooth-shaped covers that are affixed to the front of teeth. Traditional veneers required the removal of a thin layer of tooth structure. Prepless veneers are applied to unaltered teeth.

Veneers are strong, natural looking and one of the most affordable cosmetic dentistry procedures in Lewisville and Grapevine. Veneers are usually far less expensive than complete crowns, yet they are just as strong and beautiful.

Lewisville aesthetic dentists love veneers because they correct a multitude of tooth problems. At Titensor Family, Implant, Cosmetic & Sedation Dentistry, we would be happy to show you what veneers can do for you. Titensor Family, Implant, Cosmetic & Sedation Dentistry is located at 1901 Long Prairie Rd., Flower Mound, TX in Flower Mound. We provide premium dental care for many of your friends and neighbors in the greater Dallas area. Our phone number is 469-293-1040.

Live Better With Dental Implants in Flower Mound

Ill-fitting dentures cause more problems for Dallas denture wearers than they solve. If you live with loose dentures, you probably regard them as a necessary evil. Though they certainly look better than a toothless mouth, in practical terms they leave much to be desired because they affect two essential activities: eating and talking.

Unfortunately, many frustrated Coppell denture wearers have quit dining in restaurants or engaging in social activities because they are afraid their dentures will slip.

Implant dental procedures at Titensor Family, Implant, Cosmetic & Sedation Dentistry in Flower Mound are allowing former Lewisville denture patients to re-engage in life.

Consider the advantages of implant anchored dentures:

They are stable because the implant is anchored in the bone.
Your denture is fixed, it will not move around in your mouth.
They prevent bone loss that typically occurs when teeth are removed.
They eliminate the necessity of regular denture relines.
They do not irritate gums.
No denture adhesive is required.

Our Lewisville dental implant bone clients who have replaced their traditional dentures with implant overdentures enthusiastically say that the dental implant cost was more than worth it.

Do you want to eat normally again? What is the value of maintaining your facial shape? Can you put a price on confidence?

If you want more information about dental implants, call 469-293-1040 to schedule an implant tooth consultation with Dr. Steven W. Titensor. Titensor Family, Implant, Cosmetic & Sedation Dentistry is located at 1901 Long Prairie Rd., Flower Mound, TX. We have been providing advanced Dallas dental care since 1986.

Straighten Teeth Fast in Flower Mound

Poorly aligned teeth? Think it takes forever for braces to straighten them? Think again. There are many new types of braces available in Flower Mound. In some cases, teeth can be straightened in a few months and then, with braces off–a fantastic new smile.

If you are considering straightening your teeth, come into Titensor Family, Implant, Cosmetic & Sedation Dentistry in Flower Mound for an orthodontic consultation. We can discuss the new types of braces. Dr. Steven W. Titensor, DDS, will explain the pros and cons of each type and recommend the most effective (and quickest!) system for your teeth.

The first things most adult Dallas teeth-straightening clients ask about are the newer systems, sometimes called clear braces and adult braces. Invisalign and damon braces are two brand names of alternative orthodontic systems popular in Coppell and Lewisville. Many of our adult orthodontic patients have been embarrassed by their crooked teeth for many years and have developed a habit of covering their mouth when they smile. It is great to see them smiling confidently after they have completed treatment.

Younger clients usually have a different attitude about braces. They seem to consider braces more like a fashion accessory and are not afraid to show them off. Dallas area teens are interested in color braces and colored rubber bands braces. During orthodontic consultations, they usually ask about the possibility of a clear retainer to maintain teeth alignment after their braces have done their job.

Bright Purple Mouth When You Smile In Flower Mound?

Remember when Dallas adolescents undergoing orthodontic treatment were mortified by their metal mouth? Thankfully, those days are over. The Flower Mound teens of today wear their braces proudly and make no effort to hide them. They know they don’t need to wait until their teeth are aligned to flaunt a striking smile; they enjoy flashing their brightly-colored braces in all their glory.

Another plus? Just as they mix and match their clothes and shoes, teens can change their wires and bands every time they visit their Coppell dentist or orthodontist. Braces have become another fun way for Lewisville and Grapevine fashion-forward teens to express their personality.

Of course, there are still some kids (and many adults!) that are not thrilled about having metallic fuchsia bands and neon yellow wires adorning their teeth. Discrete Invisalign aligners are virtually undetectable and straighten teeth just as quickly and effectively as metal braces. Another benefit of the Invisalign system is that the aligners are not permanently attached to the teeth. Invisalign aligners are easily slipped out for brushing, flossing, meals, and sports. If your Flower Mound child plays a musical instrument that defies traditional braces, removable aligners may be the best option.

If you or one of your children need orthodontic treatment in the Dallas area, call Titensor Family, Implant, Cosmetic & Sedation Dentistry at 469-293-1040 to schedule a consultation with Dr. Steven W. Titensor. Titensor Family, Implant, Cosmetic & Sedation Dentistry is located at 1901 Long Prairie Rd., Flower Mound, TX in Flower Mound. We also provide comprehensive restorative and cosmetic dentistry. If you need affordable state-of-the-art dental care in Flower Mound, let us tell you about our financing options.

Whatever your age, if you want to straighten your teeth, we have wires and bands to match every outfit in your closet!
