A stunning smile can be a powerful asset, transforming not just your appearance but how you feel every day. At Scott Edwards DDS, Dr. Scott Edwards, Dr. Julia Prince, and Dr. Clayton Myers are passionate about helping you achieve the smile you’ve always wanted. With a variety of cosmetic dentistry options available, from whitening to straightening, our practice offers personalized treatments to bring out the best in your smile. Let’s begin by exploring how Zoom! Whitening can brighten your teeth and your confidence.

Zoom! Whitening – A Brighter Smile in No Time

Zoom! Whitening is one of the most popular cosmetic treatments at Scott Edwards DDS, offering a fast and effective way to brighten your teeth. This in-office procedure is designed to remove stains and discoloration, leaving you with a smile that truly shines.

How It Works: Zoom! Whitening uses a special light-activated gel that penetrates the teeth, breaking down stains and lightening the enamel. The process typically takes about an hour, making it a convenient option for busy patients.

Immediate Results: Unlike over-the-counter products, Zoom! Whitening delivers noticeable results in just one session. You can leave the office with a smile that’s several shades brighter.

Maintaining Your Results: To keep your smile looking its best, we recommend maintaining good oral hygiene and considering occasional touch-ups, which can easily be done at home with custom whitening trays provided by Scott Edwards DDS.

Up next, we’ll explore how Invisalign offers a nearly invisible way to straighten your teeth, giving you a perfectly aligned smile without the need for traditional braces.

Invisalign – Straighten Your Smile Discreetly

For those looking to achieve a perfectly aligned smile without the hassle of traditional metal braces, Invisalign offers an ideal solution. At Scott Edwards DDS, we provide Invisalign as a comfortable, nearly invisible alternative for both teens and adults.

How Invisalign Works: Invisalign uses a series of custom-made, clear aligners that gradually shift your teeth into the desired position. These aligners are designed to fit snugly over your teeth and are replaced every few weeks as your teeth move.

Benefits of Invisalign: Unlike traditional braces, Invisalign aligners are removable, allowing you to eat, brush, and floss without restrictions. Plus, they are made from smooth, clear plastic, making them nearly invisible when worn—perfect for those who want a discreet way to straighten their teeth.

Who Can Benefit: Invisalign is suitable for correcting a variety of dental issues, including overcrowding, gaps, and minor bite problems. Whether you’re a teen or an adult, Invisalign can help you achieve a straighter smile with minimal disruption to your daily life.

Next, we’ll look at dental bonding, a quick and cost-effective way to enhance your smile by correcting minor imperfections.

Dental Bonding – Perfecting the Details

Sometimes, it’s the small details that make the biggest difference in your smile. Dental bonding is an excellent option for those looking to correct minor imperfections like chips, cracks, or gaps. At Scott Edwards DDS, Dr. Scott Edwards, Dr. Julia Prince, and Dr. Clayton Myers use bonding to refine and perfect your smile with precision.

The Bonding Process: Dental bonding involves applying a tooth-colored resin to the surface of your teeth. This resin is then sculpted and shaped to blend seamlessly with your natural teeth, enhancing the overall appearance of your smile.

Why Choose Bonding: Bonding is a cost-effective solution for those looking to make subtle improvements. It’s ideal for patients who want to fix small issues without undergoing more extensive procedures. 

Caring for Bonded Teeth: To keep your bonded teeth looking their best, it’s important to maintain regular dental check-ups and good oral hygiene. Avoiding staining foods and beverages can also help prolong the life of your bonding.

Next, we’ll explore how dental crowns can provide a complete transformation, restoring both the function and appearance of damaged teeth.

Dental Crowns – Restoring Strength and Beauty

When a tooth is damaged, weakened, or worn down, a dental crown can provide a comprehensive solution. At Scott Edwards DDS, Dr. Scott Edwards, Dr. Julia Prince, and Dr. Clayton Myers use crowns to restore both the strength and appearance of teeth.

What Are Crowns? A dental crown is a custom-made cap that fits over a damaged tooth, covering it completely. Crowns are typically made from porcelain or ceramic, materials that mimic the natural look and feel of teeth.

Applications: Crowns are ideal for restoring teeth that have been cracked, broken, or severely worn down. They’re also commonly used after root canal therapy or to support a dental bridge. Crowns provide a strong, durable solution that protects the tooth while enhancing its appearance.

Aesthetic and Functional Benefits: In addition to restoring the tooth’s shape and function, crowns blend seamlessly with your natural teeth. This means you can eat, speak, and smile with confidence, knowing that your crown looks just like a real tooth.

Next, we’ll discuss how a Smile Makeover at Scott Edwards DDS can combine these treatments, offering a customized plan to achieve your perfect smile.

Smile Makeover – Your Customized Path to Perfection

A Smile Makeover at Scott Edwards DDS combines the best of cosmetic dentistry into a tailored plan designed just for you. Dr. Scott Edwards, Dr. Julia Prince, and Dr. Clayton Myers work closely with you to understand your goals, whether that means whitening, straightening, or repairing your teeth—or all of the above.

  • Comprehensive Approach: A Smile Makeover might include Zoom! Whitening, Invisalign, dental bonding, crowns, or a combination of these treatments to achieve the results you desire.
