Q: How Can I Fix The Shape Of My Teeth?

For some patients, the problem is that their teeth have rough edges or chips in the enamel. It might not hurt, but it could make your tooth more sensitive to hot or cold drinks. Plus, it can make you feel self-conscious. Our Tulsa, OK dental office has two treatments to help with these problems. Tooth contouring is where we smooth out a tooth by strategically removing small amounts of enamel. Tooth bonding is where we add a tooth-colored resin to the front of a tooth, filling in any imperfections and making it look smooth and healthy.

Q: Does Teeth Whitening Really Work?

Many store-bought teeth whitening products use diluted bleaching agents to allow their sale without a prescription. While they can work for some people, you usually don’t see immediate results and can end up spending a lot on repeated treatments. Our Opalescence teeth whitening system is professional strength and can quickly make your teeth look white again.

Q: Is There Anything That Fixes The Shape And Color Of My Teeth?

If you’re worried about both the color and shape of your teeth, especially if you have any gaps between them, our e.max and porcelain veneers can be a great choice. These thin shells are artfully placed on the front of your teeth, covering over any imperfections and giving the edges of your teeth the straight lines necessary to look healthy and attractive. And by making a veneer just a tiny bit larger than the tooth it’s going on, veneers can cover over gaps or uneven edges.

Q: If My Teeth Are Crooked, Do I Need Braces?

No one is excited to wear braces like a teenager, but orthodontics is usually necessary if your teeth are misaligned or crooked. Thankfully, Dr. Cornell can use Invisalign instead. These clear plastic aligners fit comfortably over your teeth. In less time than traditional braces, they get your teeth back to where they belong.

Q: What If I Have Lots Of Cosmetic Problems?

No matter how many problems you have with your smile, we can help. At our office, we offer special treatment plans called smile makeovers. We work with you to create a plan to fix the problems with your smile.

Q: Can I Do Anything About My Embarrassing Gums?

With gum recession treatment, we can help your gumline cover more of the teeth so it looks natural. And with gum reshaping, Dr. Cornell can remove excess gum tissue so your smile shows more teeth than gums.
