Cosmetic Dentistry

No two smile makeovers are the same. At Heritage Oaks Dental, your smile makeover is customized to fit your goals. When you meet with your dental care provider, we will explain the pros and cons of each of your options and provide recommendations on what might work best for your smile.

  • Veneers

    Veneers are an easy and long-lasting way to improve both the appearance and functionality of your teeth. By covering the tooth with strong, stain-resistant porcelain or resin shells, you can very simply solve a number of problems, including:

    ﹒ Discoloration
    ﹒Large gaps between teeth
    ﹒ Worn, chipped, or broken teeth
    ﹒ Misshapen teeth

  • Invisalign (Orthodontic Aligners)

    Many people are not aware that crooked, crowded or widely-spaced teeth affect more than just our confidence. Taking care of these problems or issues with an underbite/overbite is not just for adolescents. All of the above-listed concerns affect long-term dental health and can lead to an increase in tooth decay and other problems. The team at Heritage Oaks Dental can show you how correcting those concerns can help you with better overall dental health.

    Invisalign clear plastic aligners are practically invisible and eliminate the need to wear traditional braces or wires, making them a great option for the working professional and offering easier daily oral hygiene throughout treatment. The aligners are:

    ﹒Removable for eating, brushing, and special occasions
    ﹒Replaced every two weeks, moving your teeth a little with each change
    ﹒Worn an average of 9-15 months, until you reach your goal

    With 3-D technology, Heritage Oaks Dental in Marble Falls, TX can show you what Invisalign treatment can do for your teeth – so you can love your smile.

  • Teeth Whitening

    One surefire way to perk up your smile is to whiten your teeth. Depending on the amount of dental work you’ve had, your mouth’s sensitivity, and the color of your teeth, your dentist can suggest appropriate whitening methods:

    ﹒Whitening toothpastes. Including mild abrasives and other agents, these can remove minor surface stains.
    ﹒Professional In-Office Whitening. Usually done in one or two visits, depending on the case, the dentist applies a whitening agent to the teeth while shielding the gums to reduce possible irritation. Sometimes special lights are used to enhance the process. Natural teeth can be immediately whitened.
    ﹒Home Whitening. Typically involving a custom-made tray that you fill with a peroxide-based whitening agent to be applied to teeth over several days, this method is dentist-prescribed but can be lower cost than in-office treatments.

    Heritage Oaks Dental in Marble Falls, TX, will advise you about the teeth whitening methods best suited to your mouth. A brighter, more cheerful smile may be just one office visit away.
