Two common smile-killers are yellow enamel and chipped teeth.

Discolored Teeth

Few Dallas 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 at 214-522-4330. 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 Dr. 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. Call Travis Walk Dental Care today at 214-522-4330 to schedule a smile design consultation.

The best-selling mouthwashes in the Dallas area have a significant amount of alcohol, which can even exacerbate bad breath by drying out the mouth. Some bacteria grows even faster in a dry environment.

To eliminate bad breath, you need to find the cause. To get rid of hidden bacteria multiplying between teeth, pay more attention to thorough flossing and brushing.

Devise a system to brush every reachable surface of every tooth. Then floss carefully around every tooth, pulling the floss down into the space at the gumline on both sides. Brush your gums, sides of mouth, palate, and tongue, also.  This will prevent gum disease.

Schedule a deep dental cleaning at Travis Walk Dental Care with the best hygienist in the the Dallas area and request a refresher (no pun intended) course on brushing and flossing.

If your tongue is the culprit, you might want to start using a tongue scraper. Tongue scraping has become quite popular in the metroplex, especially among the college crowd.

A tongue scraper is a cleaning tool that works like a squeegee to scrape bacteria and food particles off the surface of the tongue.

I am Dr. Miranda of Travis Walk Dental Care. At Travis Walk Dental Care, we treat many Dallas cosmetic dental patients with bad breath. There is no reason to feel embarrassed. (Leaving bad breath untreated can be more embarrassing.)

Schedule an oral exam and halitosis consultation by calling 214-522-4330. At Travis Walk Dental Care, our specialty is cosmetic dentistry and we also provide dental crowns. Thanks for visiting our blog.

Dallas family dentists recommend dental crowns to remedy the following problems:

• A broken tooth with decay
• An ill-fitting existing crown
• A decayed tooth that has lost significant tooth structure
• A tooth that has had a root canal
• A tooth that is too small or misshapen
• A tooth that causes a bite problem

Before your the metroplex dentist can attach the crown to your tooth, we must prepare the tooth. Dallas family dentists often apply a local anesthetic so you won’t feel pain during the prepping.   Your dentist will remove decay, if any, and shape the tooth to receive the crown. Then a mold is taken of the prepped tooth and surrounding teeth.

A temporary crown is then placed on the tooth to protect it until you return to your Dallas dentistry office to receive the permanent restoration. The patient needs to be careful while wearing the temporary crown. Vigorous brushing or flossing can displace the crown or damage the exposed soft tissue. The the Dallas dental crown patient should also refrain from eating extremely hard foods like nuts or sticky candy.

The mold of your teeth is sent to a Texas dental lab where your crown is built. Dental crowns are fabricated in three varieties: tooth colored crowns made of resin or porcelain, porcelain-fused-to-metal, and solid metal crowns. Each type has its pros and cons. Your Dallas cosmetic dentist at Travis Walk Dental Care will choose the best crown material for your particular tooth.

What if you need a permanent dental restoration for both the top and root of your tooth? A dental implant is your answer.

The porcelain veneer is one of the most versatile items in a Dallas cosmetic dentist’s toolbox. Porcelain veneers turn unattractive smiles into perfect smiles with minimal disruption to existing tooth structure. They are quicker and usually less expensive than complete dental crowns but are made with the same strong, translucent porcelain.

It’s no that wonder that a very large percentage of people in the public eye have porcelain veneers. A Texas actress can receive a perfect smile in the morning and appear on a talk show that evening. A supermodel can permanently remedy a discolored tooth and pose for photos right after leaving her the metroplex dental office. A Dallas television news anchorman can have his teeth perfectly aligned in a couple hours and report Texas news that same day.

I am Dr. Miranda of Travis Walk Dental Care in Dallas, Texas. I use veneers alone and in combination with crowns, inlays, onlays, and tooth implants for dramatic smile makeovers. Perhaps porcelain veneers are the best route to your perfect smile.

Make this year special with a beautiful new smile!

The skilled Dallas cosmetic dentists consider the length and angle of the facial midline to properly position porcelain crowns, veneers and dental implants. When front teeth restorations do not line up with the facial midline, it is called a canted midline. This is a common mistake found in the cosmetic work of inexperienced cosmetic dentists.

Most dentistry patients do not realize the level of 3-D engineering required in cosmetic dentistry. In addition to the orientation in relation to the facial midline, there is also the angle and size of the teeth in relation to each other and in relation to the size and shape of the lips and gums.

If you are considering an extensive smile makeover, you do not want to trust your smile to an inexperienced cosmetic dentist. When you have a smile design consultation with Dr. Joseph Miranda feel free to ask probing questions about Dr. Miranda’s experience and technical design procedures. We are confident that you will feel comfortable choosing Dr. Miranda as your cosmetic dentist for your smile makeover.

Travis Walk Dental Care offers a full range of general and cosmetic dental procedures. Ask us about veneers, clear braces, tooth whitening and restorative dentistry. We look forward to meeting you.

Did you remember that brushing and flossing fights bad breath and removes stains?

If you have persistent stains that brushing can’t remove, come in for teeth whitening at Travis Walk Dental Care for a dazzling stain free smile.

The American Dental Association recommends two minutes as a minimum time for brushing. Most folks think they brush that long but would be surprised if they actually set a timer. Most of us only brush for about a minute, if that.

I am Dr. Miranda of Travis Walk Dental Care. In my office, we practice preventative dentistry by working with our patients to establish essential oral hygiene habits.

If you are looking for a dentist in Dallas, I invite you to come meet my classy and technologically advanced team.

Our address is 4514 Travis Street, Suite 117, Dallas, TX. We offer general and restorative dentistry, including dental implants and dental crowns.

And here’s a quick cold-fighting tip for my Dallas clients; get a new toothbrush when you catch a cold. A toothbrush teeming with germs can re-infect you!

Give us a call at 214-522-4330.

Though advanced dentistry would not be possible without drilling, the sound of a dental drill can make many Dallas patient’s hearts pound. However, there is another way your Dallas cosmetic dentists can remove decay. This technique is known as air abrasion or drill-less dentistry. An air abrasion instrument removes material by spraying tiny aluminum oxide particles onto the tooth. The particles work like a sandblaster spraying away the affected tooth structure.

The many advantages of air abrasion make it a popular procedure for Dallas dentists. Because air abrasion is usually pain free, the need for anesthesia is reduced. The air abrasion instrument does not create vibrations or pressure. Dallas cosmetic dentistry patients appreciate the fact that air abrasion instruments don’t produce that whiny drill sound that rings in your ears and makes your palms sweat. Because of this, air abrasion can be a less-frightening option for young the Dallas dentistry patients. Air abrasion is often quicker and more precise than traditional drilling, leaving more of the healthy tooth intact.

At Travis Walk Dental Care, we provide anxiety-free dentistry. If you would like to learn more about air abrasion, sedation dentistry, or dental implant cost, call us at 214-522-4330. We are located at 4514 Travis Street, Suite 117, Dallas, TX. The classy and technologically advanced staff at Travis Walk Dental Care is dedicated to your comfort and satisfaction.

Bite misalignment or malocclusion is a common Dallas problem that often goes undetected. Nature intended the front teeth to fit slightly forward from the lower teeth. With a perfect bite, the molars fit together like precision gears.

Malocclusion can cause headaches, tooth loosening, tooth fracture, and in extreme cases, difficulty chewing, speaking or breathing.

Dallas braces are an effective solution for most bite problems. Braces not only move teeth, they can also correct the position and function of the joints, muscles and bones in the jaw. We offer Invisalign invisible braces.  In cases of extreme malocclusion, jaw surgery in Dallas may be necessary.

Not all the metroplex and Mid-cities family dentists treat bite problems. At Travis Walk Dental Care we treat all types of malocclusion including overbite, underbite and crossbite. For an affordable Dallas cosmetic dentistry consultation, call us at 214-522-4330.

Travis Walk Dental Care offers technologically-advanced dentistry in a friendly environment. We offer teeth whitening, veneers, tooth-colored fillings and dental implants. To learn more about our dental philosophy and available procedures, see http://www.rusmiling.com/pages/about.htm.

Whitening Rinses
Dallas whitening rinses are similar to mouthwashes. They kill bacteria, freshen breath and may help remove plaque. Whitening rinses, however, contain tooth-whitening ingredients not found in mouthwashes. Manufacturers advise taking a mouthful of the rinse and letting it slosh around on your teeth for one minute twice a day. Though this method is simple, many users never notice a lightening of their teeth. This is probably because the rinse does not touch your teeth long enough to truly whiten them.

Whitening Strips
The whitening strips you can buy in Dallas grocery stores have a couple of drawbacks. Though they contain a bleaching agent, it is much less potent than those used in Fort Worth dental offices. Another problem is that they do not whiten between teeth because the strips only touch the front surface. Though it is possible to remove stains, it can take months to see any whitening. By that point, you have probably spent more money than you would have if you’d have chosen the professional system at your Dallas tooth whitening dental clinic.

Teeth Whitening Gels
Whitening gels are painted onto teeth with a small brush. One problem with whitening gels is that they only stick to dry teeth. If any saliva gets on the teeth during treatment, the gel is more likely to slide off.

If you are serious about dramatically whitening your teeth, the safest, quickest, and most affordable system is at your Dallas dental office.  We offer Zoom whitening which will whitening your teeth in just one visit to our office.
