Cosmetic Dentistry Annapolis, MD

Your smile is a big part of how you look. If you’re not happy with it, cosmetic dental care might be a great option for you. At Lighthouse Family Dentistry in Annapolis, MD, Dr. E. Taylor Meiser offers dental services to improve both the look and health of your teeth and gums.

Cosmetic dental care not only makes your smile look better but also improves your overall oral health. For example, when you whiten your teeth, you’re often more motivated to keep them clean and maintain good oral hygiene. Similarly, straightening your teeth with clear braces helps prevent bite issues, tooth decay, and gum problems. Straight teeth are also easier to clean and reduce the chance of bacteria buildup.

Why Choose Lighthouse Family Dentistry for Cosmetic Dentistry?

Our office provides cosmetic services to meet your smile goals. We’ll work with you to create the best plan for you using the latest technology and treatment. At Lighthouse Family Dentistry, we focus on these key factors when providing cosmetic dentistry:

  • Detailed Care: Dr. Taylor Meiser has years of experience studying the structure of the face, so he knows how to create a treatment plan that perfectly matches your smile to your facial features. He also works closely with dental labs to ensure a perfect fit for treatments like veneers and ClearCorrect aligners. His attention to detail can help you achieve the smile you’ve always wanted.
  • Modern Technology: We use the latest technology for cosmetic treatments. Dr. Meiser uses a 3M intraoral scanner for digital impressions, which are more comfortable and less messy than the old putty method. We also use digital X-rays for a clearer and quicker view of your teeth.
  • Better Health: If you have any dental problems, like cavities or gum disease, Dr. Meiser will treat those first. You’ll be ready for cosmetic care once your mouth is healthy. Treating these problems also decreases the risk of problems with your cosmetic treatments.
  • Personalized Care: Dr. Meiser customizes each treatment plan to fit your unique needs. He carefully matches materials to the color of your teeth. He always ensures your smile looks beautiful.

Our cosmetic treatments can brighten, reshape, and straighten your smile. We provide treatment to straighten crooked teeth, close tooth gaps, and brighten stained teeth.

Clear Braces

ClearCorrect aligners are a modern, comfortable way to straighten teeth. These invisible aligners are removable, so you can eat your favorite foods and brush and floss easily. Dr. Meiser recommends them for patients with mild to moderate alignment issues. For more details, see ClearCorrect Aligners.

Porcelain Veneers

Porcelain veneers are thin shells that cover the front of your teeth to fix imperfections. They can make teeth look whiter, longer, and straighter. Veneers are designed to blend in with your teeth and are a long-lasting solution. For more details, see Porcelain Veneers.

Teeth Bonding

Teeth bonding uses a tooth-colored material to fix stained teeth, close gaps, or repair small chips. Like veneers, this quick and easy treatment blends in with your natural teeth. After shaping the bonding material, Dr. Meiser hardens it with a special light to ensure it stays in place. For more details, see Teeth Bonding.

By choosing cosmetic dentistry at Lighthouse Family Dentistry, you can improve both your smile and your oral health. Dr. Meiser is dedicated to giving patients a smile they can be proud of.

Teeth Whitening

We offer professional teeth whitening at our office. For quick results, consider our in-office whitening treatment. We provide customized whitening kits for those who prefer to whiten at home.

Dr. Meiser can also help reduce any tooth or gum sensitivity that might come with whitening, whether you choose in-office or at-home treatment. To learn more about our teeth whitening options, see Teeth Whitening.

Smile Makeover

If you have several cosmetic issues with your smile, a smile makeover might be right for you. This involves using multiple treatments to improve your smile. Dr. Meiser will first check that your oral health is in good shape with a complete examination. You can then talk about your smile goals with him during a consultation.

He’ll create a treatment plan with a timeline that fits your budget and goals. A smile makeover can include teeth whitening, braces, bonding, and veneers. Dr. Meiser will decide which treatments you need and the best order to achieve the best results.

Cosmetic Dental FAQs

Many patients have questions if they’ve never gotten a cosmetic treatment before. Knowing what treatments you can get and finding the right treatment for your needs can give you a confidence boost. Read answers to some common questions about cosmetic dentistry in Annapolis, MD.

How can I whiten deeply stained teeth?

For deep or intrinsic stains, regular whitening may not work well. Dental injuries, certain medications, or too much fluoride can create deep stains that don’t respond to the active ingredients in teeth whitening.

However, we may recommend dental bonding or veneers to cover these stains. These treatments are color-matched to your desired tooth shade and blend in with the color of natural teeth. We’ll help you choose the best option for your needs.

Can I whiten porcelain veneers or bonded teeth?

No, you can’t whiten veneers or bonded teeth. These materials are made of resin or porcelain and don’t respond to whitening treatments. Let us know if your veneers or bonded teeth look stained or discolored. We can find a replacement or another way to improve their appearance.

Which is better: dental veneers or tooth bonding?

Both porcelain veneers and dental bonding can cover stained or damaged teeth. The choice depends on what you prefer. Veneers are a permanent option that fully covers the tooth, while bonding can fix smaller chips and cracks and is often more affordable. Dr. Meiser will discuss your needs and goals to recommend the best treatment for you.
