Hello, I’m Dr. Joseph Miranda DDS. My cosmetic dental practice is called Travis Walk Dental Care. We are located at 4514 Travis Street, Suite 117, Dallas, TX. You can reach us by calling 214-206-9633.
You can probably imagine why I look at smiles everywhere I go in the Dallas area. Whether I am working with a Mid-cities dental patient, having dinner at a the metroplex restaurant, or attending a Ft. Worth sporting event, I notice whether the people around me smile. Whenever I encounter someone with obvious tooth problems, I want to tell them about the procedures that can completely transform their frown into a healthy and beautiful smile.
Are you one of those people who don’t want to show their teeth? I would love to talk to you about a smile makeover. Whatever your excuse is for not seeking dental treatment, I can discuss all of your concerns with you during a free consultation.
Perhaps you are afraid of dental work. Have you ever considered oral conscious sedation? With sedation dentistry, even extensive treatment is virtually pain free. Sedation will calm your mind as well as the nerves in your mouth.
Perhaps the cost of Dallas cosmetic dentistry is holding you back. My classy and technologically advanced staff will be happy to talk to you about financing plans. It is important to remember that if your teeth are decayed, postponing treatment will cost more money in the long run. Filling a cavity is far more affordable dentistry than a root canal procedure or, in the case of an extracted tooth, a dental implant.
You can contact my office at 214-206-9633 or online at http://www.rusmiling.com. My Dallas family dental website contains information about all the general, restorative and aesthetic services we provide.
I can transform your smile into one that you will want to show all the time!

When you meet someone in Dallas who is missing a front tooth, what does that say to you? Do you wonder if they were in an accident? Do you automatically start making assumptions about their income, level of education and overall physical health?
Though it is extremely unfair, we are often judged (and misjudged) by our appearance. Even if a person is impeccably dressed and groomed, a missing front tooth detracts from the overall pleasing impression.
Here is a personal story from a woman who lost a tooth:
I lost my job and along with it my dental insurance, then a month later, one of my front teeth. It has been very hard to find work…. and I know the missing tooth has cost me several jobs.”
A missing tooth can be a big deal.
Dental implants not only restore oral health, they restore self-confidence. Dental implants are a permanent solution for missing teeth. Studies have shown that after more than 20 years, the vast majority of dental implants placed by oral and maxillofacial surgeons continue to function at peak performance. If properly cared for, dental implants can last a lifetime.
Dental implants are one of the procedures we routinely perform at Travis Walk Dental Care to help our Dallas clients regain the beautiful smile they once had. Not all cosmetic dental procedures are as extreme as teeth implants. There are many minimally-invasive remedies for unattractive smiles.
Porcelain veneers instantly provide a perfect, gleaming tooth surface for Dallas clients with broken or discolored teeth. Tooth whitening is a quick and affordable dentistry procedure in the metroplex that achieves dramatic results without requiring the removal of any tooth structure. Call Travis Walk Dental Care at 214-206-9633 for more information about smile design and restorative dentistry.

If you have been paying attention to the Dallas orthodontics scene in recent years, you probably know about invisible braces and speed braces. These new teeth straightening procedures have been welcomed by many people, especially Dallas adults who want an alternative to traditional metal braces.
There’s more good news for the metroplex dentistry clients who want to straighten their teeth. How about ‘instant orthodontics’?
If you want immediate teeth straightening, you can smile sooner with porcelain veneers from Travis Walk Dental Care!
The key to achieving a celebrity smile may be porcelain veneers for your teeth from a Dallas dentist. Drs. Miranda and Lepard at Travis Walk Dental Care can help you determine if porcelain veneer dentistry is for you. Ongoing education is essential for elite cosmetic dentists who work to continually provide the latest procedures and materials for their cosmetic and orthodontic clients. We can help.
In addition to correcting tooth alignment, porcelain veneers are used to whiten teeth and restore chipped teeth in Mid-cities, Ft. Worth, and Dallas. Porcelain veneers are attached to the front of teeth and often require no removal of healthy tooth structure. Another advantage? They are less expensive than complete crown restorations but look just as natural. -Actually, they look far better than most natural teeth!
For an instant orthodontic consultation, call Travis Walk Dental Care at 214-206-9633. Porcelain veneers may be the best way for you to receive a smile makeover at a fraction of the cost.

Q: For Dallas residents: When is the least expensive tooth replacement method really the most expensive?
A: When it ends up costing far more in the long run.
Many Dallas dentistry clients who lose a tooth do not understand the importance of replacing it with a dental implant. They wrongly believe that one missing tooth is not a significant problem. In fact, some people who have an abscessed tooth extracted are so glad the pain is gone that they forget that the extraction is not the solution. When a tooth is lost, the risk of losing the adjacent teeth increases dramatically.
Dr. David Scharf, a Board Certified Periodontist and Dental Implant Surgeon and a Clinical Assistant Professor at New York University College of Dentistry says:
“Many times consumers will choose to replace a missing tooth with a removable partial denture because it is the least expensive option. In the long run however, removable partial dentures may be more costly due the loss of adjacent teeth and the need for future replacements. Many people opt to replace teeth with dental implants because they do not compromise the survival of the adjacent teeth.”
Dr. Scharf notes…
“With the price of gasoline and food soaring people try to cut back wherever they can. Unfortunately choosing the least expensive options for tooth replacement can have some very costly ramifications down the road.”
If you are missing a tooth, you may still be able to save the adjacent teeth if receive a dental implant soon. A dental implant bonds chemically with the jaw bone and helps maintain its stability.
To schedule a dental implant consultation, call Travis Walk Dental Care at 214-206-9633. In addition to cosmetic dentistry, we provide comprehensive general dentistry for families in the Dallas, Texas area.

The world of dentistry continues to advance at a rapid pace. If you have visited a Dallas dentist in the past few years, you have probably noticed the things that make your visit more comfortable, such as the ability to watch TV or listen to music while receiving treatment.
The use of air abrasion has created the opportunity for drill-less dentistry for cosmetic and restorative dental patients. Drill-less dentistry requires no needles, no drill, and no numbness. Dental sedation is regularly used to help calm patients who feel anxious or nervous during dental treatments.
Many of the leading dental offices in the nation are beginning to use laser dentistry for more accurate cavity detection. Dental lasers are also used effectively for reshaping a damaged gum line and treating the affects of gum disease.
If you need a thorough exam or want to improve your smile with cosmetic dentistry, call Travis Walk Dental Care to schedule a consultation. During your consultation, you can see before and after photos of some of our smile makeover clients. We would love to help you achieve the smile you have always wanted, and we have the tools, experience and technology to make that happen.

The people in Dallas who are most happy with their smiles have healthy, straight teeth that sparkle when they laugh. If nature didn’t bless you with attractive teeth, you are not alone. Most perfect smiles you come across in Dallas were not always that way. They are the result of cosmetic dentistry performed by an experienced Dallas cosmetic dentist.
At Travis Walk Dental Care in Dallas, Dr. Joseph Miranda provides state-of-the-art procedures that deliver dazzling, flawless teeth for our cosmetic dentistry clients. You are never too young or too old to improve your smile; but it will definitely make you feel younger!
Two common smile-killers are yellow enamel and chipped teeth.
Discolored Teeth
Few people have pearly white smiles that stay that way forever. Even with consistent brushing, flossing and regular dental cleanings, our teeth darken as we age. Fortunately, the most affordable Dallas cosmetic dentistry procedure is tooth whitening. Picture yourself with a celebrity-caliber smile. It is possible with safe and affordable teeth whitening at Travis Walk Dental Care.
Damaged Teeth
Our teeth work hard for us day after day, year after year. Sometimes they get chipped or cracked in the process. If you would like to fix your tooth flaws, schedule a consultation by calling Travis Walk Dental Care. We use porcelain veneers every day to remedy tooth trauma. Cosmetic bonding has been used with fabulous results for many years and bonding is usually a fraction of the price of a crown.
Ask Dentist Dr. Joseph Miranda which of our Dallas cosmetic dentistry procedures can be completed in one appointment. How about a same-day smile makeover?
If you have never been eager to show your teeth when you smile or laugh, now is the time to change that.

Ill-fitting dentures cause more problems for Dallas denture wearers than they solve. If you live with loose dentures, you probably regard them as a necessary evil. Though they certainly look better than a toothless mouth, in practical terms they leave much to be desired because they affect two essential activities: eating and talking.
Unfortunately, many frustrated the metroplex denture wearers have quit dining in restaurants or engaging in social activities because they are afraid their dentures will slip.
Dental implant procedures at Travis Walk Dental Care in Dallas are allowing former San Diego denture patients to re-engage in life.
Consider the advantages of implant anchored dentures:
- They are stable because the implant is anchored in the bone.
- Your denture is fixed, it will not move around in your mouth.
- They prevent bone loss that typically occurs when teeth are removed.
- They eliminate the necessity of regular denture realignment.
- They do not irritate gums.
- No denture adhesive is required.
Our San Diego dental implant bone clients who have replaced their traditional dentures with implant overdentures enthusiastically say that the dental implant cost was more than worth it.
Do you want to eat normally again? What is the value of maintaining your facial shape? Can you put a price on confidence?
If you want more information about dental implants, call 214-206-9633 to schedule an implant tooth consultation with Drs. Miranda and Lepard. Travis Walk Dental Care is located at 4514 Travis Street, Suite 117, Dallas, TX in Dallas. We have been providing advanced Dallas cosmetic dental care since 1991.

There is nothing like bright white teeth that light up a person’s whole face when they smile and laugh. No one has to settle for dull, yellow teeth.
This is a great time for Dallas men, women and teens to get a deep teeth cleaning and tooth whitening at Travis Walk Dental Care in Dallas. With a deep cleaning followed by teeth bleaching, your teeth will feel as good as they look.
If you have an important upcoming event such as a the metroplex wedding, Mid-cities party or formal family portrait sitting, a smile makeover will give you extra confidence as you pose for photos (even close-ups).
Ft. Worth tooth whitening can whiten teeth beyond their natural shade. At our Dallas cosmetic dentistry practice, we don’t use a conventional shade chart for our Mid-cities whitening clients anymore. You have probably seen the porcelain tabs in graduated shades that Dallas tooth whitening dentists use to determine appropriate, yet natural looking, shades for tooth restorations. We now use a shade guide with levels significantly whiter than the guides we have used in the past. Tooth whitening is not a gimmick; it is safe and incredibly effective. Dallas tooth bleaching clients can maintain a white shade that equals the brightness of the ‘tooth’ models you see in dental marketing.
Dallas tooth whitening following twice-yearly cleanings is the most affordable cosmetic dentistry procedure. Tooth bleaching in Dallas is comparable to the cost of a professional hair weaving and cut, but when you consider the transformation; there is no comparison! Flash your gorgeous, sparkling smile, and no one will even notice your hair.
