Everyone wants a beautiful smile, but sometimes there may be a few imperfections that leave you less than happy with the way your teeth look. Our Tzagournis Dental Group of Westerville team is happy to listen to your cosmetic dentistry goals and help you figure out the best way to transform your grin. Don’t hesitate to reach out if you’re interested in teeth whitening, veneers, or another smile-improving treatment.
No matter how good your oral hygiene is, your teeth won’t necessarily stay unblemished forever, especially if you frequently consume foods and beverages that can leave stains. With a professional teeth whitening treatment, it’s often possible to brighten your grin by several shades in a relatively short amount of time. Personalized Opalescence whitening kits are available for home use, but if you want to see results as soon as possible, it may be worth asking our team about ZOOM! in-office whitening.

There are many different kinds of imperfections that could potentially appear on your teeth, including stains and small cracks. Dental veneers let you treat these and other imperfections all at once with just one cosmetic procedure that can be completed in as little as two appointments. Each veneer can completely cover the fronts of your teeth, hiding cosmetic flaws from view so that you can smile in front of others without having to feel self-conscious about your appearance.
While metal dental crowns can keep your teeth safe, they tend to be highly visible compared to the rest of your smile. At our practice, we are pleased to be able to offer zirconia crowns, which are much more aesthetically pleasing since they can be personalized to match the color of your natural teeth. Zirconia crowns can still last a very long time and offer excellent protection, making them a great choice for your smile in terms of both function and appearance.
Like veneers, direct bonding can be used to make a variety of corrections, such as repairing damaged teeth, hiding discolored spots, closing small gaps, changing the length or shape of a given tooth, and protecting any tooth roots that have been exposed. We simply need to apply tooth-colored composite resin to the areas where improvement is required. The material will be hardened in place with a special light once we’re done sculpting it so that it looks like a natural part of the tooth.
Compared to veneers, direct bonding is much faster and can often be completed in just one appointment. We may recommend direct bonding if you’re looking to make a couple of small improvements to one or two specific teeth.
For decades, straightening your teeth meant wearing metal brackets and wires for two years or more. If that has stopped you from scheduling a consultation, you’ll be happy to know that we now offer SureSmile Clear Aligners in Westerville! With this innovative, discreet, and effective orthodontic treatment, we can move your teeth into their properly aligned positions without any metal at all. So, what are you waiting for? Once you schedule an appointment, you’ll be a big step closer to your dream smile.

You’ve probably heard a few rumors about the cost of cosmetic dentistry, but it is affordable for people from all walks of life. You have more options than ever before, which means there’s a solution to fit your budget. Your cosmetic dentist will help you find the solutions you need to transform your smile without costing an arm or a leg. In some cases, your dental insurance may even cover some of the costs for medically necessary procedures. Our office also offers flexible financing options to keep the smile of your dreams within your budget.
Your comfort is always our top priority. Depending on your treatment plan, you may benefit from a local numbing medication. You won’t have any outright pain during your procedure, but you might feel some odd sensations or pressure. You may experience some temporary tenderness after the effects of any numbing medications wear off. You can manage it with an OTC pain reliever and eating soft foods. Your cosmetic will review any additional aftercare instructions.
Every procedure has a different life expectancy and many factors can affect the duration of your results. You can get the most from your investment by committing to good oral hygiene. Brush your teeth at least twice a day for two minutes and floss daily. Limit your consumption of sugars and starches to prevent tooth decay. Moderate chewy and hard foods to avoid wear and tear. Stop any bad habits that may damage your teeth, like chewing on your fingernails. Ask your dentist for a nightguard if you grind and clench your teeth. Schedule a cleaning and checkup with your dentist every 6 months to keep your mouth healthy.
You’ll require an initial consultation to ensure you’re a candidate for cosmetic dentistry. They may determine you need preliminary treatments before getting started because your teeth and gums must be healthy. Your dentist will review your timeline during your consultation. Some procedures can be performed in one appointment, but other treatments may require more than one visit.
Teens can benefit from cosmetic dentistry, too. However, every situation differs. There are many cosmetic services that are suitable for teens, like cosmetic bonding, teeth whitening, and metal-free crowns. Other procedures may need to wait until your child is older, like porcelain veneers. Your cosmetic dentist will learn more about their concerns to create the solution they need for a confident smile.
