Unfortunately, if you’re not confident in your smile, you may find yourself suppressing your contagious grin. The good news is, you can change that. With cosmetic dentistry, you don’t have to live with discolored or crooked teeth. You can have the smile you desire (and the confidence that comes with it) in just a few short visits.
At Midlothian Dental Center, we meet with patients in the Richmond area to create a comprehensive plan based on your ideal smile goals.
With our team’s extensive smile experience combined with state of the art technology, you can finally have the smile you’ve always wanted. Not only is cosmetic dentistry affordable, it’s also quick and pain-free – the only thing dramatic is your result.
A veneer is simply a thin, custom made translucent layer of porcelain or composite that fits permanently over an existing tooth to improve its shape, color or size. If you’ve ever looked at a celebrity or model and wondered how they achieved that seemingly perfect smile – the answer is likely porcelain veneers. Today, veneers are a more common, affordable, durable, and long-lasting solution for anyone looking to quickly improve their smile. Using computer imaging and before-and-after photos, we work with each patient to decide on the style, shape and color veneer that works best for the smile you’re looking to achieve.

Unfortunately, yellow or stained teeth make you look older than you are. Yes, there are plenty of over the counter toothpastes and whitening strips to help improve minor discoloration. But the results are very minimal and short-term when compared to professional, customized, and long-lasting whitening treatments.

With Invisalign® you can brush and floss normally, which can help prevent tooth decay and gum disease. Invisalign® has been proven effective in both clinical research and in orthodontic practices nationwide. Over a quarter million people are already smiling more thanks to Invisalign®.

Dental bonding may be a great option for you based on your needs and goals. Dental bonding is a cosmetic solution available to improve the appearance of your teeth. Unlike veneers, bonding doesn’t require anything be sent a way to a laboratory in order to create a customized mold. With bonding, chipped, misshapen, discolored, or damaged teeth can be fixed seamlessly in one visit. Bonding is one of the easiest cosmetic dental procedures, making it one of the most affordable. Our dentists use composite resin to carefully shape and polish bonding as closely as possible to match your teeth.

Dental implants replace tooth roots. They are set into your jaw, and over time, the jawbone actually grows into the implant. Depending on whether you are missing one, several, or all of your teeth, you may have a single implant, or implant-supported bridges. The procedure typically involves local anesthesia, to make for a painless experience. Implants are made to match your natural teeth. They don’t require removal or adhesives like dentures. Because they fuse with the bone, they become permanent. In fact, with proper care, dental implants can last a lifetime.
