Cosmetic dentistry spans the gap between a person’s natural smile and how he or she would like it to look. Dentist in Wichita Falls, Dr. Shelly Strohman, understands her patients’ aesthetic needs and crafts care plans which boost appearance and self-image. She features professional teeth whitening and porcelain veneers as her premiere treatments for qualified teens and older adults. Porcelain crowns and tooth-colored fillings combine the best of restorative and cosmetic dentistry.
Why Worry about Smile Aesthetics?
The American Academy of Cosmetic Dentistry says that a person’s smile is worth a thousand words. To say it another way, how you smile expresses your personality– the real you.
Unfortunately, individuals with smile defects such as dark stains, gaps and excess gum tissue can’t smile confidently. A hand hides teeth and gums, or worse, some people withdraw from social interactions to avoid embarrassment.
Over the past three decades, cosmetic dentistry has blossomed, offering people chances to tell the world how they feel–happy, outgoing, positive and more! Dr. Shelly Strohman strives to keep her patients’ teeth and gums healthy and, yes, strong and beautiful, too. She loves see the individuals who walk into Strohman Dental leave with a new perspective on their lives.
Featured Cosmetic Treatments in Wichita Falls
Professional teeth whitening provides patients with healthy teeth and gums an easy, budget-friendly and impactful way to brighten the color of their enamel. Darkly pigmented dietary choices, smoking and simple wear and tear make smiles yellow and dull.
So, Dr. Strohman and her team offer PolaNight whitening for use at home. Gradual yet effective, this innovative teeth whitening system lifts out stains caught deep in tooth enamel. The patient applies the gel via customized trays, wearing them for 45 minutes each evening. The result is a dramatically brighter smile within two weeks.
Porcelain veneers cover the front of teeth marred by dark discolorations, fine cracks and other defects. Fashioned from thin, translucent ceramic, these custom-fabricated laminates are bonded in place for a natural-looking, but dazzling, look. Plus, placement of porcelain veneers takes just two visits to Strohman Dental.
Tooth-colored fillings are white, durable and bonded directly to enamel. An aesthetically pleasing alternative to dark amalgam fillings, composite resin restorations last for years with good care. Additionally, the dentist uses this inventive material to fill cracks, pits and other dental irregularities.
Porcelain crowns restore teeth with substantial damage from injury, decay or congenital malformation. They also cover dental implants and protect teeth which have undergone root canal therapy. Porcelain crowns are preferable to old style metal crowns and may be used to support fixed bridgework.
