Even the most severe cases of dental staining can typically be improved by having Dr. Taylor Goggins administer a dental bleaching treatment. However, this could leave a noticeable contrast between your professionally whitened tooth enamel and any old dental fillings that appear in your smile. This effect could also be compounded if your teeth have chips and minor dental fractures.

In a case such as this Dr. Taylor Goggins might recommend installing a porcelain dental veneer onto each tooth that appears in your smile. The special dental grade porcelain can be shaded to perfectly mimic the white appearance of natural tooth enamel.

If a tooth has been significantly altered by a physical defect, or it has very shallow tooth enamel, Dr. Taylor Goggins might recommend restoring it with a porcelain dental crown. This will completely replace the original tooth enamel layer with the same dental porcelain used for your dental veneers.

A second appointment will be needed once the dental lab has completed the dental veneers and any necessary dental crowns. Dr. Taylor Goggins will then cement the dental work into place with a strong dental adhesive.

If you live in the Broomfield, Colorado, area and your smile need cosmetic restoration, you should call 303-586-1019 to set up a consultation appointment at Denver Restorative Dentistry.

Old fillings can gradually start to mismatch the appearance of the surrounding tooth enamel. Chips can form on a tooth from minor dental trauma, and discoloration from dental stains can turn your tooth enamel an unsightly shade of yellow. Any one or all of these things can leave you looking for a cosmetic dental solution to your unappealing smile problem.

One of the most effective options Dr. Taylor Goggins might recommend is to have dental veneers installed at their Broomfield, Colorado dental clinic.

On a basic level, these are custom-shaped shells cast from a special dental-grade porcelain material. They will be created at a professional dental lab to match the natural shape of each tooth in your smile.

The porcelain material can be shaded to look just like white, natural tooth enamel. At the same time, it won’t be as porous as natural tooth enamel, so the veneer-enhanced teeth will resist future dental staining issues.

Dr. Taylor Goggins will start the process of fitting you for veneers by examining each tooth in your smile. This ensures that there is sufficient strong enamel to later mount the veneers and address any old fillings or areas of tooth decay.

If you have one or two teeth that have been compromised by a large chip, tooth decay or an old filling, Dr. Taylor Goggins might recommend a porcelain crown restoration.

After the initial examination, Dr. Taylor Goggins will create an impression of each tooth in your smile. This is sent to a dental lab where your custom dental veneers are produced.

A staff member of Dr. Taylor Goggins’s staff will call you to schedule a second appointment, when your veneers are ready. Dr. Taylor Goggins will then use a drill to remove a small amount of enamel from the face of each tooth. This prepares the surface of the tooth to secure the veneer with dental-grade adhesive.

If you live in the Broomfield, Colorado area and you would like to improve the appearance of your smile with dental veneers, you should call 303-586-1019 to schedule a consultation with Dr. Taylor Goggins.
