Your Own Hollywood Smile with DURAthin Veneers

Wednesday, February 1st, 2012

It may sound too good to be true that you can have your own Hollywood smile with no pain, no drilling, and no grinding down of your teeth. But the revolutionary development of DURAthin veneers makes that offer available. Tennessee dentist Dr. Dennis Wells, in connection with his lab technician Mark Willes, designed and developed DURAthin veneers to restore and craft beautiful smiles without the damage to your natural teeth that many other cosmetic restorations require. If you wish you could change something about your smile, but don’t hate it enough to want a complete smile makeover, DURAthin veneers offers a more conservative solution that is just as aesthetic. You can have a Hollywood smile without all the pain and irreversible tooth reduction.

 

Like traditional porcelain veneers, DURAthin veneers can hide unsightly teeth, resize small or misshapen teeth, whiten slight discoloration, and straighten your smile for a beautiful look. They offer an excellent all-in-one solution for several common aesthetic problems with smiles today. Tennessee DURAthin veneers are much thinner than porcelain veneers, allowing them to bond directly to the front surface of the tooth. With traditional porcelain veneers, the dentist has to grind down the natural teeth to compensate for the added thickness of the veneer. With DURAthin veneers, you can have a beautiful new smile while preserving your teeth underneath.

 

Cosmetic dentist Dr. Dennis Wells points out that not everyone is a good candidate for DURAthin veneers. This cosmetic dental technique is designed for specific cases and may not be the solution for every dental need. At an initial consultation with Dr. Dennis Wells, he will assess your situation and together you will determine whether DURAthin prepless veneers are the best option for you. If you do not qualify for DURAthin veneers, other cosmetic dental techniques such as dental crowns or traditional porcelain veneers offer equally beautiful smiles.

 

To learn more about how DURAthin veneers can give you the Hollywood smile you want, call the Nashville Center for Aesthetic Dentistry at (615) 866-5151 to schedule an initial consultation with cosmetic dentist Dr. Dennis Wells.

How Are Porcelain Veneers Placed?

Sunday, January 1st, 2012

How are Porcelain Veneers Placed?

If you are looking to straighten, cover up, whiten, or reshape your teeth, porcelain veneers offer a cosmetic dental solution for enhancing your smile to look just how you want. Porcelain veneers are thin pieces of tooth-like porcelain that are bonded to the front surface of your teeth. The procedure generally takes a few visits to ensure the most accurate placement. You can expect to experience the general steps outlined below:

 

1. Initial Consultation: At an initial consultation, Brentwood cosmetic dentist Dr. Dennis Wells will assess your teeth and discuss your goals for your smile.

 

2. Tooth Preparation: In order to compensate for the added thickness of porcelain veneers, Dr. Dennis Wells will prepare your teeth by reducing and preparing them beforehand. If you qualify for DURAthin veneers, no tooth reduction or preparation is necessary since the DURAthin veneers are so thin they can bond directly to the natural tooth surface.

 

3. Temporary Veneers: After your teeth have been prepared, Brentwood cosmetic dentist Dr. Wells will give you temporary veneers to wear while your permanent porcelain veneers are being designed and made.

 

4. Bonding: Images and molds of your teeth are sent to our highly skilled ceramist who carefully crafts your permanent porcelain veneers to fit your smile. Once your porcelain veneers are complete, Dr. Dennis Wells will bond them to the front surface of your teeth. If you choose DURAthin prepless veneers, no drilling is necessary!

 

5. Perfect Fit: After your porcelain veneers are bonded to your teeth, Dr. Dennis Wells will check to make sure your bite, color shading, and tooth shape all contribute to an aesthetically pleasing smile.

 

To learn more about the dental veneers procedure, call the Nashville Center for Aesthetic Dentistry at (615) 866-5151 to schedule an initial consultation with Brentwood cosmetic dentist Dr. Dennis Wells. Or visit our website at http://www.drdenniswells.com/index.php.

Reshape Your Smile with Porcelain Veneers

Monday, August 15th, 2011

Whether you are looking to lengthen your teeth, cover a tooth crack, or straighten a crooked tooth, porcelain veneers are most likely your best solution. Porcelain veneers are a popular cosmetic and restorative dental technique used to straighten, whiten, or reshape smiles for a naturally attractive look.

Porcelain veneers are thin pieces of porcelain that are bonded onto the front of each tooth to restore aesthetics and protect damaged teeth. Among the wide-ranging uses for porcelain veneers, the following list shows a few ways porcelain veneers in Tennessee can benefit your smile:

  • Whiten slightly discolored teeth
  • Close tooth gaps
  • Hide cracks or chips
  • Protect damaged teeth
  • Straighten slightly crooked teeth
  • Lengthen small teeth
  • Reshape uneven or irregular teeth

Porcelain veneers offer the benefits of whitening, straightening, and reshaping all in the same restoration. Whether you need one or multiple porcelain veneers, they are designed to fit naturally into your smile. Each veneer is custom-shaped and colored to create the smile you want. The porcelain material mirrors the translucent quality of natural tooth enamel for a more natural look.

To learn more about porcelain veneers or to ask Dr. Dennis Wells about DURAthin veneers, call the Nashville Center for Aesthetic Dentistry in Brentwood, Tennessee to schedule an initial consultation. We look forward to helping you achieve the smile of your dreams!

Versatile Veneers for a Vivid Smile

Thursday, January 6th, 2011

Affordable Cosmetic Dentistry in Nashville Have you ever wished you could quickly attach perfectly shaped, dazzling white front surfaces to your teeth? Guess what? You can! With porcelain veneers, you can eliminate smile imperfections in just one visit to your Brentwood cosmetic dental office.

The porcelain veneer is one of the most versatile items in a Brentwood cosmetic dentist’s toolbox. Dental veneers turn unattractive smiles into perfect smiles with minimal disruption to existing tooth structure. They are quicker and usually less expensive than complete crowns but are made with the same strong, translucent porcelain.

It’s no that wonder that a very large percentage of people in the public eye have porcelain veneers. A Tennessee actress can receive a perfect smile in the morning and appear on a talk show that evening. A supermodel can permanently remedy a discolored tooth and pose for photos right after leaving her Tennessee dental office. A Brentwood television news anchorman can have his teeth perfectly aligned in a couple hours and report Tennessee news that same day.

I am Dr. Dennis Wells of Nashville Center for Aesthetic Dentistry in Brentwood, Tennessee. I use veneers alone and in combination with dental crowns, inlays, onlays, and tooth implants for dramatic smile makeovers. Perhaps porcelain veneers are the best route to your perfect smile.

Let’s talk. My office can be reached at (615) 866-5151

We are located at 105 Powell Court, Suite 101, Brentwood, TN in Brentwood.

Porcelain Veneers

Wednesday, August 18th, 2010

Porcelain Veneers With porcelain veneers, you can revamp your smile without significant restorative dental work.

Porcelain veneers are glass-like, wafer-thin covers that are attached to the front of your teeth. Porcelain has been used in dentistry for many years because no other restorative material is such an excellent match for natural tooth enamel. Porcelain is translucent and can be matched to the color of any tooth. It is stronger than enamel and resists stains. Dental ceramists who fabricate porcelain veneers are both artists and technicians. They create beautiful paper-thin wafers that adhere to teeth, correcting chips and stains. Porcelain veneers can also straighten crooked teeth for patients who don’t need orthodontic work.

Patients who receive porcelain veneers appreciate the less-invasive process of enhancing their smile. Newer techniques require no removal of healthy tooth enamel.

We would be happy to show you what veneers can do for your smile.

Nashville Center for Aesthetic Dentistry is located at 105 Powell Court, Suite 101, Brentwood, TN. We provide skilled dental care for patients in the greater Nashville area.

Nashville Teeth Whitening and Veneers

Thursday, May 20th, 2010

Teeth whitening is a popular cosmetic dentistry procedure in Nashville and throughout Tennessee.

Numerous ads for whitening products in our local Brentwood media contain terms such as ‘white brite’, ’22 carbamide peroxide’ and ‘peroxide teeth’. They look tempting, but how do you separate tooth bleaching fact from fiction?

First, and especially for our local Nashville patients, we recommend talking to Dr. Dennis Wells, DDS at the Nashville Center for Aesthetic Dentistry at our Brentwood office. Just because teeth whitening products are readily available, it doesn’t mean they are all safe or appropriate for every person. Getting a professional opinion is a good first step.

Don’t be fooled by smile whitening hype and risk damage, especially if you need tetracycline teeth whitening. If you have existing cosmetic dental work such as crowns, bonding, partial dentures or bridge work, it is especially important to talk to a Nashville dental professional about worry free dentistry teeth whitening.

Teeth whitening kits are not the only way to quickly improve your smile. Many of your neighbors have benefited from porcelain veneers. There are several brands of veneers such as Lumineers by Cerinate, da Vinci and Mac. We can help you decide on which is best for you.

Veneers are sometimes called ‘instant orthodontics’ because they can correct tooth misalignment and gaps as well as provide instant teeth whitening.

Porcelain veneers can also fix chipped teeth and cover stains. The vast majority of Nashville veneer recipients are extremely pleased with the results.

Correcting Severe Dental Problems in Brentwood

Friday, May 14th, 2010

Each separate restorative and cosmetic dentistry procedure performed in Brentwood can address a specific dental problem. For example, a porcelain veneer can perfect the surface of a tooth that is discolored or slightly misshapen. Dental bonding can fill a small chip in an otherwise healthy tooth.

Some Nashville dental problems are more extensive and require a combination of procedures. Crown restoration combined with soft tissue grafts can restore a severely decayed tooth with the root exposed. A bone graft and dental implant can restore a missing tooth in an area where the jaw bone has receded. Orthodontia followed by tooth bleaching totally transforms a smile by straightening and whitening.

What is the difference between tooth bleaching and whitening? Teeth whitening is the term for procedures which remove surface stains to restore the degree of natural lightness. Bleaching goes even further by lightening teeth beyond their natural shade. That’s right: you don’t have to resign yourself to yellow teeth even if they have been that way your whole life! The natural shade of your teeth, by the way, like your skin and hair color, is determined by genetics.

Some Brentwood smiles have been gleaming for years by regular whitening. You can maintain the whiteness of your teeth just as you maintain your fitness level. (Of course it is a lot easier to make a quick visit to your Nashville dentist once a year for whitening touch-ups than sweating in a gym several times a week!)

We live in an age where severe dental problems can be permanently corrected. You don’t have to participate in a TV makeover show in Hollywood to access these premium cosmetic dental procedures. They are available right here in Brentwood. Dr. Dennis Wells has the same advanced training and extensive experience as the dentists who keep the smiles of famous actors and musicians camera-ready.

Schedule a consultation at the Nashville Center for Aesthetic Dentistry to discover the perfect combination of procedures to achieve your ultimate smile. Our phone number is (615) 866-5151.
