Is your smile haunted by years of drinking coffee and red wine and eating marinara, blueberries, and other dark foods?

The colorful foods and drinks aside, your teeth can turn dark and dingy for a lot of other reasons, including poor oral hygiene, tobacco use, aging, and prescription medications.

While it might take years for the youthful glow of your teeth to fade, it only takes minutes to cast the stains away when you visit us for in-office whitening treatment!

In less than an hour, your teeth can look up to eight shades whiter, and you can trust our team to provide a safe application and even coverage for amazing results.

If you prefer to whiten your teeth on your own time, we can even send you home with one of our professional customized kits.

Don’t be scared by dental stains! Call Charlotte Dentistry at 704-285-0846 to schedule your teeth whitening appointment in Charlotte, NC.

Every day at Charlotte Dentistry, we see patients who have been dealing with the hassles of damaged and missing teeth. Over our long history, we’ve helped thousands of patients smile with more confidence and eat more comfortably using restorative dentistry. We can repair your smile as well. If you’re tired of hiding your smile and having to pick and choose what you eat, our team would love to help you. Below are some types of dental restorations we may use to get your smile back in shape.

  1. Tooth-Colored Fillings

A filling will repair tooth decay and help prevent additional problems with your tooth. Plus, it will blend in naturally with your smile.

  1. Dental Crowns

We can have a beautiful crown made to cap your damaged tooth. It will give you back your confidence and restore your ability to chew.

  1. Dental Bridges

A bridge will span the gap left behind by one or more missing teeth. Once your treatment is complete, it will be almost like you never lost a tooth.

  1. Dentures

Dentures will replace either a full or partial arch of teeth on your upper jaw, lower jaw, or both. Get back your smile and your bite with these replacement teeth.

  1. Dental Implant Restorations

We can attach replacement teeth to implants, which function as artificial teeth roots. If you’re missing teeth, your options include crowns, bridges, and dentures.

  1. Root Canal Treatment

Your dentist will clean out the infection in your diseased tooth and seal it with a rubber-like material. This procedure lets us stop your pain and save your tooth.

We Do More Than Just Check Your Teeth

When you partner with us to keep your smile healthy and bright, your regular checkups are anything but routine. We’ll never rush you in and out as if you were just a number or a set of teeth that need fixing. At Charlotte Dentistry, we value each patient, and our team works hard to provide the level of care that we would want to be treated with.

That’s why we’ll take our time with your dental cleaning and exam. Your hygienist will carefully examine your teeth and gums, looking for any problems or suspicious areas that may require further attention. Your exam will include using an electronic cavity detector to look for small signs of decay that are invisible to the naked eye. We may also take a set of X-rays for a detailed look at your teeth roots, bone, and nerves.

Get Ready For That “Fresh-Mouth” Feeling

After your hygienist examines your mouth, they will thoroughly clean and polish each of your teeth. Your cleaning will remove plaque, tartar, and bacteria that can cause damage to your tooth enamel. They will pay special attention to all the nooks and crannies of your mouth that you might miss at home with your regular brushing and flossing.

When your cleaning is finished, your teeth will sparkle and feel almost like brand-new teeth! There’s just something about leaving the dentist with a fresh mouth that’s hard to beat. You’ll know that your teeth look and feel their best, and you’ll have the confidence that goes along with it.

Your Dentist Will Also Examine You

After your teeth get clean and shiny, your dentist will come in and perform their exam. They will look carefully at your teeth, especially any problem areas noted by your hygienist. We’ll be looking for cavities, gum disease, signs of oral cancer, bite issues, and other problems. Rest assured, if you have any dental problems, we’ll find them.

If you do need additional dental services, we’ll let you know. Depending on your needs, we may recommend fluoride treatment, tooth sealants, or some type of restorative dentistry to repair your smile. However, we’ll never recommend any treatments that you don’t truly need. We take a conservative approach and will only recommend those services that will repair or enhance your smile.

Now is the perfect time to make your appointment. Call Charlotte Dentistry today at 704-285-0846 to schedule or request an appointment time online.
