Cosmetic Dentistry Can Enhance Your Smile and Boost Your Confidence
Many of our patients come to our office with various cosmetic issues or defects in their teeth. These can range from severe problems, such as broken teeth, to less severe problems such as gaps between their teeth. By employing one or more effective treatment options, cosmetic dentistry is all about restoring people’s natural smiles.
To restore a natural, confident smile, these options are genuinely beneficial to a patient who has experienced significant smile-altering trauma.
Cosmetic dentistry usually involves giving someone a new whiter, and brighter smile to be proud of by repairing chipped or worn teeth, straightening crooked teeth, or closing gaps between their teeth. We must be expertly trained in the ability to design a smile that looks natural to do just that.
Below are listed some of the cosmetic treatments we may use to fix your smile for those of you with less-than-perfect teeth:
Getting the results a particular patient is looking for could involve using any of these options by itself or a combination of more than one. We always personalize each case because, in Cosmetic Dentistry, there is no one-size-fits-all treatment. Some patients may need a complete smile reconstruction, in severe cases.
For your convenience, we offer these three types of comfort and sedation dentistry:
This “laughing gas,” as most people know it, is used for simple fillings or routine cleaning treatments and is the most common form of sedation. Thanks to this simple form of sedation, your entire dental treatment can be a relaxing experience.
During IV Sedation, the patient’s vital signs are monitored throughout the entirety of the procedure, as the sedation is administered via IV. The patient will have been sleeping during the entire process, in this case, and will awaken only after the procedure.
Suppose a patient must return to school or work after completing the procedure. In that case, it will be especially beneficial for them to understand their need for sufficient recovery time before they leave.
We currently offer oral sedation for our patients who wish to remain conscience and yet come to us with gagging problems or a higher than average amount of fear and anxiety. Throughout the entire procedure, we closely monitor their vital signs once giving a combination of oral medications.
Once taking the oral medication we provide, the patient becomes highly relaxed and drowsy, and after their appointment, most patients remember nothing of the fear or anxiety they may have thought to experience without.
You will not be put to sleep with oral sedation, and during the entire procedure, you will be able to respond to Dr. Melancon and his team.
Patients who self-pay and contact us due to pain, such as those requiring root canal treatment, fillings, or crowns, will incur a $75 charge for their appointment. This fee encompasses the examination and x-ray essential for diagnosis. Excludes patients with dental insurance.
New patients, paying out of pocket, who schedule a cleaning will be charged $175 for a basic cleaning. This fee covers an examination, two sets of x-rays, and a regular cleaning. Excludes deep cleaning procedures and patients with insurance.
New patients, paying out of pocket, requiring an extraction will incur a charge of $205. This includes the cost of X-rays, an examination, and the extraction procedure itself. Excludes patients with insurance.
