Cosmetic Dentistry

No matter how thorough your dental hygiene routine is, the foods and drinks you consume can stain and discolor your teeth. Teeth whitening is a highly effective solution for drastically improving your smile. We offer an at-home teeth whitening kit that includes trays custom-created to fit your upper and lower teeth. These trays are created from digital impressions to ensure a secure fit. We also provide a bleaching agent, which you will use to fill the trays. We recommend wearing the trays for 20-30 minutes a night for one or two weeks. At the end of the treatment, your smile will be shades whiter! This procedure is much more precise and effective than over-the-counter solutions.

If you are looking to change the appearance of your smile, porcelain veneers may be right for you. Veneers are thin yet strong porcelain shells that are bonded onto the front of the teeth. They are custom-created to provide the look you are seeking. They can be used to disguise chips, gaps, cracks and discoloration, or to change the shape of or lengthen teeth. Not only do veneers look natural, but they are also resistant to staining.

Dental bonding is a simple, cost-effective method for improving the appearance of teeth in just one visit. Using a high-intensity light, we bond a tooth-colored composite resin onto the teeth. Bonding can be used to fill in gaps, chips and cracks, as well as to cover up discoloration. We trim and smooth the composite resin to ensure it blends in seamlessly with your smile.

Crowns are caps that are placed over the teeth to restore their strength and appearance. We often use crowns to restore teeth after a root canal, as well as to restore dental implants. Our crowns are custom-made so that they are the perfect shape, size and shade for your smile.

A bridge is a device that is used to replace a missing tooth or teeth. We place crowns on the teeth on either side of the gap, and these crowns are connected to an artificial tooth, which is placed into the gap. Because a bridge is cemented onto the teeth, it is a more secure option than a partial denture.

At Dodge City Dental Care, we are proud to use iTero 3-D Impression System technology to create digital impressions. Now, you no longer have to suffer the gooey mess that is typically involved in creating a traditional impression. Impressions are essential for creating crowns and bridges, as well as custom trays for teeth whitening. With our digital technology, we can easily create an accurate impression in just three to five minutes that will allow us to create restorations that fit perfectly in your smile the first time!
