You Need a Giant Filling (And Don’t Want a Crown)

Posted: September 20, 2019

At Nashville Center for Aesthetic Dentistry – Dennis J. Wells, DDS, our dental team works together in order to provide patients with a smile they can look forward to flashing every day. However, what if you have a tooth with an issue?

If you have a decayed tooth, we can help repair it. However, perhaps the decay is too large for a simple filling. Sometimes, our team can perform an inlay or an onlay instead of a crown. Usually, they are more affordable than a porcelain crown.

Inlays/onlays are “indirect fillings,”. We will produce them in a lab and place them whole on the tooth. When we perform traditional “direct fillings”, we apply the material to the tooth while the material is malleable and then shape it.

INLAY
We will use an inlay to fix the surface of a damaged tooth, ordinarily to fill a small cavity or a natural pit that is at risk for decay.
Typically porcelain or composite resin are used for inlays; these materials are heavy-duty and look very natural because the color can be matched to the surrounding teeth. Our team will precisely fit an inlay to your tooth so it looks, feels, and functions like the previous tooth.
ONLAY
An onlay, or partial crown, covers a larger part of the tooth. Onlays are generally applied to the biting surface of the tooth. Just like inlays, our team will exactly fit them to the damaged part of the tooth. We will use composite resin and porcelain as the main materials used to create an onlay.

At the Nashville Center for Aesthetic Dentistry – Dennis J. Wells, DDS, our incredible dental team will consult with you on the best way to improve your smile and to repair that tooth issue. We can also discuss other cosmetic dentistry options that could improve your smile, such as teeth whitening, and implant dentistry. We look forward to seeing you in our office.

Showing Too Much Gum in Your Grin?

Posted: September 13, 2019

Everyone wants to have a bright, sparkling smile. The way your smile sparkles is with those gleaming bright teeth. But what if your teeth are getting overshadowed by your….gums? At The Nashville Center for Aesthetic Dentistry, we can fix that.

If you show a lot of gum tissue when you smile, or if your gum looks uneven, we can contour your gums. It will help your teeth appear taller and more even. (Giving you a sparkling vs gummy smile.) Our team uses the latest in soft tissue lasers which will remove excess tissue painlessly.

We have found that the benefits of soft tissue lasers minimize bleeding and swelling. Also, you should recover faster with lasers versus scalpels. A laser can be even more efficient and accurate than previous methods.

Once you’ve had your gums shaped and contoured, you’re more likely to smile. You won’t feel self conscious anymore.

This is just one way we can use cosmetic dentistry to create a customized smile for you at the Nashville Center for Aesthetic Dentistry. Call our office to schedule an appointment today.

Old Metal Fillings

Posted: August 16, 2019

Smile, Happy, People, Fun, Young, Woman

If you have old fillings, chances are that they are metal. When you flash your smile, you want people to pay attention to you – and not all of your filled cavities. At the Nashville Center for Aesthetic Dentistry in Brentwood, we use our cosmetic dentistry skills to improve the smiles of our patients every day.

Metal fillings stand out and draw attention to your teeth. With tooth colored fillings, we let the focus stay on the beauty of your natural smile. Tooth colored fillings are completely safe and feel comfortable. The tooth colored fillings fix your cavities, but leave no trace that they are there, blending seamlessly with the natural color of your teeth.

When we replace your metal fillings, we will use tooth colored acrylic-like materials. They will be shaded and blended to look like part of your tooth structure. You’ll look like you got a complete smile makeover – and you just replaced your fillings.

Of course, you don’t have to stop there. We can create an entire smile improvement plan for you, enhancing your natural grin. Replacing metal fillings is just one way we can use cosmetic dentistry to create a customized smile for you at the Nashville Center for Aesthetic Dentistry. Call our office in Brentwood to schedule an appointment today.

Got a Gap in your Grin?

Posted: August 9, 2019

Have you been wondering if everyone is staring at the hole in your mouth? Does everyone around you have a full toothy grin, and you have some spaces? With dental implants from the Nashville Center for Aesthetic Dentistry , you can have a gorgeous smile in no time.

Dental implants are often the best option for tooth replacement because they provide support that your jawbone needs to stay healthy. A dental implant is a specially crafted post that replaces your tooth root. Our team places the dental implant into your jaw, and then you will get a new “tooth” (a crown) that fits over the post.

Reasons for Implants

HEALTH – Dental implants help keep your mouth and your jawbone healthy, even after you’ve suffered a devastating tooth loss. With a dental implant, you’ll look healthier and feel better.
LONG LASTING –Dental implants are durable and can last a lifetime with proper care.
COMFORT – Dental implants look and feel just like your natural teeth.
FUNCTIONALITY- With a dental implant, you’ll be able to do everything you were able to do before your tooth loss.
BEAUTY- Our dental implants and restorations are beautiful, custom-made restorations that perfectly mimic the look of your lost tooth.

Scared of Full Veneers? Try DURAthin & Micro-thin Veneers

Posted: July 12, 2019

The Nashville Center for Aesthetic Dentistry realizes there are many choices among cosmetic dentistry procedures, and they can seem overwhelming. Perhaps you’ve heard about veneers, and how well they can improve your smile. But, then you became nervous when you realized that some enamel (even though it’s a very small amount) will be removed for their placement. Is there another option?

If you don’t want enamel removed, then think about prepless veneers. DURAthin veneers & Micro-thin veneers are custom-made of porcelain that will enhance your smile just like regular porcelain veneers. The difference is that none of your natural enamel is removed. Depending on your teeth and smile issues, we will examine you to see if you qualify for DURAthin veneers or Micro-thin veneers. Then we’ll design the porcelain to go on top of your teeth without doing any drilling.

Usually, people who have had teeth extracted for orthodontic reasons in the past can be great candidates for this procedure. We have also used prepless veneers to ‘turn back the clock’ for people with small or worn teeth, giving them a more youthful smile.

We will need to examine you and your smile before we can determine which method will get you the best results. But with the expert team at the Nashville Center for Aesthetic Dentistry, you’re sure to smile at the outcome.

Cosmetic Design Choices – Veneers as an Option

Posted: June 28, 2019

Asian Smile, Anterior Teeth, Veneer The Nashville Center for Aesthetic Dentistry realizes there are many choices among cosmetic dentistry procedures. Let’s discuss another one of them today- porcelain veneers. Dental veneers can fix many types of issues in your smile, including small gaps, dark colors on a tooth, and chipped or worn teeth.

Smile Design with Porcelain Veneers

The process of our team’s smile design can usually be completed in just a few weeks. After a complete diagnostic review of your smile and your personal goals at the Nashville Center for Aesthetic Dentistry in Brentwood, Tennessee, we begin the dental veneer process.

We prepare your teeth’s surfaces and design your veneer prototypes. You leave our office with your brand new smile in temporary materials. If you like your prototypes, then we send pictures to our ceramist who uses them as a blueprint in designing the actual porcelain veneers for teeth.

After wearing your temporary dental veneers for a few weeks, we’ll do the final phase. This is the bonding procedure, where we place and fuse each porcelain veneer to the front of your teeth.

Time to celebrate! You now have that beautiful smile you’ve dreamed about.

Brief postoperative visits will assure us that everything has healed properly and your smile looks and feels great!

This is just one way we can use cosmetic dentistry to create a customized smile for you at the Nashville Center for Aesthetic Dentistry. Call our office to schedule an appointment today.

Choices for Cosmetic Dentistry

Posted: June 14, 2019

restorative dentistry Nashville Cosmetic dentistry – something that only the rich and famous could do 15 years ago is now something that is available to more people. Nashville Center for Aesthetic Dentistry realizes there are many choices among cosmetic dentistry procedures. Let’s discuss one of them today.

One of the most popular procedures is teeth whitening. As you age, even if you don’t smoke, your teeth begin to become stained. Coffee, red wine, and even chocolate can stain your teeth. Over time, your pearly whites don’t look so pearly.

Keeping a bright, light smile is one way to take years off of your smile. At our practice, we offer two different professional teeth whitening options – at-home, and in-office.

Patients can use our special at-home whitening gel and achieve incredible results in as few as ten days. Our at-home whitening kits are more effective than over-the-counter options. We use special whitening gels that can only be prescribed by a licensed dentist.
We also offer an in-office tooth whitening procedure that involves using a special light-activated solution that hastens the whitening process. With this, we can whiten teeth in one appointment. .

For the best results, we recommend combining both options.
