Enhance Your Smile with Cosmetic Dentistry

Cosmetic Dentistry Consultation

Cosmetic dentistry changes can be very subtle, as with teeth whitening and dental bonding, or, a more dramatic makeover can be achieved with custom dental veneers and crowns.

A beautiful smile depends on a healthy foundation. Your smile transformation begins with a complete examination of your teeth, gums and jaw bone support. Dr. Zanthos will talk with you about making changes to your smile and advise you of any dental health concerns such as tooth wear, decay or periodontal (gum) disease.

ZOOM!® Teeth Whitening

Teeth darken naturally with age, which can make a smile look dull. Our ZOOM!® in-office whitening system is an exciting way to make your teeth several shades lighter in a single visit.

The ZOOM!® whitening process combines professional strength ingredients that are activated by light acceleration to remove old stains and whiten tooth enamel. Patients that have never whitened their teeth are often pleasantly surprised by how bright their smile looks after the ZOOM!® whitening procedure. A small change really can make a big difference!

We also have ZOOM!® take-home whitening for more gradual teeth whitening or touch-up applications as needed. Learn more about ZOOM!® whitening at our Alabaster dental office.

Cosmetic Dental Veneers & Crowns

Cosmetic veneers and crowns make any smile possible. Did you know that there are ‘styles’ of teeth? Rounded, squared, pointed, long, short, etc., to name a few. And, there are virtually unlimited shades of ‘white’. Each individual smile is a combination of these and many other characteristics. Dr. Zanthos studies this information to re-design your smile with cosmetic dental veneers and crowns.

Dental veneers and crowns are designed by Dr. Zanthos and fabricated by our dental laboratory in ceramics or a combination of dental ceramics and metals. A veneer is a porcelain facing placed over the front surface of the tooth and a crown covers the entire tooth above the gum line. Dr. Zanthos can combine veneers and crowns to create a seamlessly beautiful smile appearance with natural-looking materials.

The craftsmanship of designing veneers and crowns gives Dr. Zanthos the opportunity completely change your smile. He can talk with you about the changes you would like to see and provide recommendations. Learn more about veneers and crowns.

Cosmetic Dental Bonding

Cosmetic dental bonding is often used to repair minor damage in tooth enamel and conceal flaws in front teeth. While not as durable or long-lasting as porcelain crowns or veneers, bonding can be an affordable solution to smooth chipped tooth edges and close small gaps between teeth.

Bonding material, or dental composite, is a soft filling material that Dr. Zanthos shapes into the prepared tooth to create a bonded restoration. The material is hardened in place using a special dental curing light. Today's composite filling materials are available in a wide range of shades, so your bonded restoration blends naturally with your smile.

Restorative Dentistry

Cosmetic dental treatment is often combined with minor surgery or restorative procedures like CEREC® crowns or dental implant restorations to rebuild your smile or shape the gum line to create a smooth, symmetrical appearance. Dr. Zanthos works closely with our dental laboratory and will coordinate your care with dental specialists (oral surgeons, periodontists, and endodontists) as needed to create your new smile.
