At-Home Routine (Brush and Floss)

Our prosthodontists and team is a firm believer in preventative care, which begins in the home. Daily brushing and flossing with a soft-bristled toothbrush and fluoridated toothpaste will help remove harmful oral plaque that can lead to tooth decay and gum disease. Sticking to a nutritious diet while limiting sugary and acidic foods and beverages will also protect tooth enamel. You are essentially on the front lines of defense when it comes to protecting your smile, and your teeth and gums will reflect this.

Routine Dental Cleanings and Exams

Your daily oral hygiene care, combined with regular, twice-yearly dental cleanings and exams complement your efforts to protect your smile. During these visits, our prosthodontists will assess your oral health with a detailed dental exam using dental X-rays. A periodontal probing will be done to assess your gum health and to diagnose any signs of gum disease. Dr. Taylor Goggins, Dr. Brian Aguirre and Dr. Anna Pitz want to make sure that any dental conditions or diseases, like tooth decay, bone loss or other dental problems are spotted early so treatment is minimally invasive and most effectively applied.

(Optional) Dental Sealants and Fluoride Treatments

One of our skilled dental hygienists will remove all the hardened tartar from your teeth and around the gum line, and polish your teeth to remove stains to make your tooth enamel shine! Depending on your dental needs, this is also the time when applying dental sealants on the hard to clean molars in the back of the mouth may be done, as well as applying a fluoride treatment if your enamel needs strengthening to keep out cavities. While optional, both dental sealants and fluoride treatments are effective preventative measures to take to ensure a healthier smile.

At Denver Restorative Dentistry in the Denver metro area, our team offers a wide range of dental services including custom dental veneers. Our prosthodontists and cosmetic dental experts have helped hundreds of patients improve their smile using dental veneers that we make in our on-site dental lab.

Crafted from thin porcelain or resin shells, our dental veneers can be bonded to the front teeth to give you a Hollywood-worthy smile, just by changing the shape, size and length of your teeth. This may be particularly helpful if you are a smoker or coffee and soda drinker where teeth whitening alone doesn’t quite do the trick.

Thin shelled, opaque porcelain veneers can not only cover permanent dark tooth stains but are also more resistant to staining than your natural teeth. Porcelain is gentle on your gums, making them a good tooth enhancement option. Not only can dental veneers re-shape and straighten out the look of an uneven tooth to appear flawless, but they can also fill in gaps and spaces between your teeth that make you feel self-conscious whenever you smile. Another benefit to porcelain is that it not only conceals damage on the tooth’s surface but is also strong enough to increase the tooth’s structural integrity as well as appearance.

Porcelain dental veneers are designed to blend in seamlessly with your natural teeth so no one knows you are wearing them. By hiding your smile imperfections, our dental veneers protect your teeth that have chips and cracks, keeping them strong and intact. Best of all, dental veneers are easy to maintain! You simply brush and floss them with your natural teeth every day to keep your smile healthy and bright. Porcelain dental veneers are meant to last for decades with proper daily oral hygiene and routine dental checkups and cleanings. Your dental veneers are custom-crafted by our master dental technicians so you get the highest quality results you want.
