The Lone Star State is known for its beautiful smiles, and our local Lewisville community is no exception. Keeping your teeth clean is an important factor in maintaining your beautiful smile. One of the benefits of regularly visiting your local Lewisville area family dentist is a thorough teeth cleaning and a review of your brushing habits.
Our Lewisville dental hygienist helps you keep your teeth clean by assessing the condition of your teeth, and recommending improvements to your daily teeth cleaning habits. Our oral hygienist can also professionally clean and polish your teeth at your regular Lewisville dental check up. You should schedule a general dentistry check up every six months.
I am Dr. Steve Titensor and I work at Titensor Family, Implant, Cosmetic & Sedation Dentistry. We specialize in cosmetic and sedation dentistry in the Lewisville community, and the surrounding areas.
Cleaning your teeth in Lewisville is the simple task of removing plaque (a sticky deposit that gets left on teeth in which bacteria thrives) and tartar (a calcium deposit that forms on teeth and aids in tooth decay). This is done by brushing regularly with a toothbrush and fluoride toothpaste, and flossing. Brushing and flossing at least twice each day can keep plaque and tartar from building up on your teeth and results in cleaner, healthier teeth. A regular visit to your local Lewisville dental hygienist will help you stay on top of problems that can go unseen, such as gum disease.
The American Dental Association (ADA) recommends visiting your local Lewisville dentist at least once every 6 months for a regular dental check up and teeth cleaning. These regular visits to your Lewisville dentist potentially prevent the undetected development of problems that can occur from neglecting to clean your teeth.
To keep that beautiful Lewisville smile in good shape, come in for a cosmetic dental check up and teeth cleaning.

At Titensor Family, Implant, Cosmetic & Sedation Dentistry, we restore decayed teeth to create smiles that are both healthy and beautiful. Recent advances in both techniques and materials have made the ‘impossible’ not only possible, but affordable for everyone in Flower Mound as well.
Dr. Steven W. Titensor has been restoring teeth since 1986. Ongoing training is essential for staying on the cutting edge of the cosmetic dentistry industry.
Decay is the most common Flower Mound dental problem and the second most common disease in the nation (number one is the common cold). If you have one or more teeth with decay, it’s time to take care of them.
Fillings, inlays, onlays and dental crowns are used to restore teeth for our Flower Mound cosmetic dental patients. Even the most basic procedure – filling a cavity – has evolved. There are several types of new materials available including porcelain and composite resin. Each has specific strengths and aesthetic considerations. Flower Mound patients who replace silver amalgam with tooth-colored fillings love getting the metal out of their smile.
Inlays and onlays are more extensive restorations. There are two types: direct or indirect. Direct inlays and onlays are made in your Flower Mound cosmetic dental office on the spot and applied in one visit. Indirect inlays and onlays are fabricated in a dental lab. They usually require a second visit but the results are well worth the extra trip.
When a Flower Mound area client has a tooth that cannot be restored with an inlay or an onlay, a natural-looking crown is the answer. At Titensor Family, Implant, Cosmetic & Sedation Dentistry, we create crowns that blend in perfectly with the rest of your teeth. Let us show you some photos of patients who have received smile makeovers – you will not see any “Chiclet” crowns that stick out like a sore thumb. In fact, you won’t be able to tell which of our Flower Mound dental clients have crowns.
Titensor Family, Implant, Cosmetic & Sedation Dentistry is located at 1901 Long Prairie Rd in Flower Mound. Dr. Steven W. Titensor is currently accepting new patients. Call 469-293-1040 to schedule a general dentistry consultation.

If you live in the Coppell area and are planning to take a vacation or business trip soon, I recommend you coordinate your dental care with your travel schedule. It’s always a good idea to have a checkup with your Coppell general dentist prior to leaving on long vacations, especially if your trip is taking you to developing areas without good dental care options. This quick checkup will help you be sure that your mouth is ready to travel.
More importantly, if you have any cosmetic dental procedures scheduled before you leave, discuss it with your Coppell dentist. A large number of dental procedures are actually surgical procedures. This means that your body will need more time to heal than you may realize.
Also, if you’re leaving the Coppell area by plane, you should be aware that changes in the cabin pressure of the airplane may cause tooth pain or discomfort for patients who have just had oral surgery. In addition, make sure you are aware of any necessary follow-up appointments with your Coppell restorative dentistry professional before you schedule a vacation.
I’m Dr. Steven W. Titensor and I want Coppell residents to be informed about their dental care. My Coppell area practice offers:
cosmetic dentistry
dental implants
sedation dentistry
porcelain veneers
Invisalign clear braces
If you are looking for general dental care or quality cosmetic dentistry in Coppell or the surrounding areas, please call us today and let our friendly staff take care of you.

Dentists in Flower Mound are concerned with your oral health and thus care about the condition of your mouth and all of your many teeth. At Titensor Family, Implant, Cosmetic & Sedation Dentistry we recognize that your teeth help you both eat and speak. You use your teeth to tear, scrape, and chew food, as well as to form words with your tongue. Teeth are an important part of your oral health and Flower Mound cosmetic dentist Dr. Steven Titensor wants to help keep your mouth and teeth healthy.
We humans have two sets of teeth in our lifetime. The first set are your ‘primary teeth’, which many folks around Flower Mound often call ‘baby teeth’. Baby teeth typically start to come in at about 6 months old. An average healthy mouth for a Flower Mound resident has a total of 20 primary teeth by about age 5.
Your primary teeth will eventually fall out and new teeth known as ‘permanent teeth’ will grow in. Permanent teeth typically begin to come in around age 6 for most Flower Mound residents, but every person is unique and it could be a little earlier or later. By about age 13 an average healthy mouth should have 28 of the total 32 permanent teeth. The last four permanent teeth may or may not come, but typically come in between the ages of 17 and 21 if they do. Because of the late age that these last teeth come in they are commonly called ‘wisdom teeth’.
Many adults in the city of Flower Mound have their wisdom teeth pulled out because these teeth can be problematic to your oral health, such as crowding a mouth. Other adults in the Flower Mound area may not have these teeth pulled out because they are not causing problems. If you are concerned about the state of your wisdom teeth, you can visit our local Flower Mound office and we can help you make a decision.
Caring for all of your teeth whether you are young and have 20 primary teeth or are an adult and have 28 to 32 permanent teeth is important for your overall health. Visiting your Flower Mound family dentist regularly, and brushing and flossing daily are great ways to care for your many teeth.
Titensor Family, Implant, Cosmetic & Sedation Dentistry located in Flower Mound, cares about you oral health and teeth. We can be reached by phone at 469-293-1040.
