If you are planning extensive cosmetic dental work, you may be wondering whether to do it all at once or one procedure at a time over an extended period. Here are some factors to consider:
Cost
In the long run, It is less expensive to do it all at once. At Travis Walk Dental Care in Dallas, we are able to complete several procedures in one visit. We know that complete smile transformations are a significant investment for most Dallas residents. We would be happy to discuss affordable dentistry financing options. Call us at 214-522-4330 to schedule a no-pressure consultation.
Time
With the latest materials and cosmetic dental techniques, healing times are shorter than ever before. However, some procedures such as bone grafting, soft tissue grafting, root canals, and dental implants often require a short healing period.
It is easier physically and psychologically to have the fewest possible visits to your Dallas dentist. You should also consider how your dental visits and necessary healing periods will impact your employment and family life. You will have less down time if you receive several procedures at once.
Aesthetic Results
While we routinely achieve great outcomes when doing a smile makeover in steps, porcelain restorations are best fabricated in the same “batch” for the most precise color matching.
Sedation Dentistry
When you come in for a smile analysis, we can discuss oral sedation dentistry. Many cosmetic dental patients benefit from this safe and effective solution for pain and anxiety management. Conscious sedation is especially helpful for procedures such as multiple wisdom teeth extractions and dental implant placement.

Each separate restorative and cosmetic dentistry procedure performed in Dallas can address a specific dental problem. For example, a porcelain veneer can perfect the surface of a tooth that is discolored or slightly misshapen. Dental bonding can fill a small chip in an otherwise healthy tooth.
Some Dallas dental problems are more extensive and require a combination of procedures. Crown restoration combined with soft tissue grafts can restore a severely decayed tooth with the root exposed. A bone graft and dental implant can restore a missing tooth in an area where the jaw bone has receded. Orthodontia followed by tooth bleaching totally transforms a smile by straightening and whitening.
What is the difference between tooth bleaching and whitening? Whitening is the term for procedures which remove surface stains to restore the degree of natural lightness. Bleaching goes even further by lightening teeth beyond their natural shade. That’s right: you don’t have to resign yourself to yellow teeth even if they have been that way your whole life! The natural shade of your teeth, by the way, like your skin and hair color, is determined by genetics.
Some Dallas smiles have been gleaming for years by regular whitening. You can maintain the whiteness of your teeth just as you maintain your fitness level. (Of course it is a lot easier to make a quick visit to your Dallas dentist once a year for whitening touch-ups than sweating in a gym several times a week!)
We live in an age where severe dental problems can be permanently corrected. You don’t have to participate in a TV makeover show in Hollywood to access these premium cosmetic dental procedures. They are available right here in Dallas. Dr.Joseph Miranda has the same advanced training and extensive experience as the dentists who keep the smiles of famous actors and musicians camera-ready.
Schedule a consultation at Travis Walk Dental Care to discover the perfect combination of procedures to achieve your ultimate smile. Our phone number is 214-522-4330.

Many Dallas professionals, students and retirees are enjoying the lasting benefits of aesthetic dentistry. A beautiful smile not only looks great, it makes you feel great! When you first look in the mirror in the morning while brushing those gleaming babies, you remember; oh yeah, I fixed my teeth and they look fantastic!
When you smile at old friends or make new ones, you are happy to show off your new movie-star grin. When you are in a professional setting speaking with colleagues or clients, you feel poised and super confident.
We have talked about different cosmetic and restorative dental procedures available in Dallas in previous blog articles, but let’s review the most common.
Veneers are glass-like, wafer-thin covers that adhere to teeth. Porcelain veneers are strong and have the translucency of natural teeth. They correct chips, stains and misaligned teeth that do not require orthodontia. There are several companies that fabricate veneers. One of the most well-known brand names is Lumineers.
Crowns correct more extensive tooth problems. They are used in a variety of situations such as the final restoration following a root canal or to restore teeth damaged by decay, injury or periodontal disease.
Dental implants are one of the best fixes for a missing tooth. They are becoming a popular and effective alternative to bridges and partial dentures, especially among middle-aged professionals and people in the public eye.
Bridges are another strong, natural looking replacement for one or more missing teeth. They have been used with success for many years.
Professional tooth whitening in your Ft. Worth dentist’s office is the least invasive and quickest way to brighten your smile several shades. One of the most popular systems is called Zoom!.
If you are interested in any of these safe and effective procedures, schedule a consultation at Travis Walk Dental Care today. Even if you are still a bit hesitant, remember: discussing your options with a cosmetic dentist does not require a commitment of any kind. It is merely a relaxed way to get the most reliable information.
We are waiting for your call. Travis Walk Dental Care can be reached at 214-522-4330.

A smile takes but a moment, but the memory of it lasts forever. You can make your smile memorable and beautiful with a smile makeover at Travis Walk Dental Care in Dallas.
Cosmetic dentistry is a broad term that specifies dentistry with an emphasis on aesthetics. The cosmetic dentists perform general dental procedures in addition to providing advanced cosmetic dental treatments. Dallas cosmetic dentists have specialized training in the latest cosmetic dental procedures and techniques.
Travis Walk Dental Care cosmetic dentists in Dallas are knowledgeable about the processes used to fabricate crowns, veneers, inlays, onlays, braces and dental implants. Advances in ceramic and composite materials have boosted the popularity of Dallas cosmetic dentistry but these miracle materials are worthless without a skilled cosmetic dentist to incorporate them into a healthy and beautiful smile.
When designing a dental treatment plan for a Ft. Worth patient, the client’s goals and expectations are discussed. The most skillful cosmetic dentists consider the shape, alignment, color and condition of the teeth. The Texas cosmetic dental client’s age, health condition and lifestyle also influence the plan.
If you want to learn about the possibilities for your smile, call Travis Walk Dental Care at 214-522-4330. We have created memorable smiles for many of your friends and neighbors in the Dallas area.

Dallas cosmetic dentistry is part science and part art.
We are Drs. Miranda and Lepard of Travis Walk Dental Care and enjoy using our extensive dental training and specialized artistic skills to design treatment plans unique to each of our Dallas cosmetic dental clients.
In order to achieve an attractive, yet natural looking result, we do much more than recommend specific procedures. I consider the shape, alignment, color and condition of the teeth. In order to create a balanced look, the facial shape and coloring is taken into account. The Dallas dentistry client’s age, health condition and lifestyle all influence the plan.
At Travis Walk Dental Care, there is no one size fits all treatment plan.
Our artistic abilities have been perfected over several years of creating smile transformations for our clients. We are constantly receiving the latest training in new techniques and materials.
Even fairly recent cosmetic dental procedures such as teeth whitening and porcelain veneers have advanced considerably. Dental implants are a truly remarkable solution for our Texas dental clients who have lost one or more teeth.
We would love to design a personalized smile makeover for you. When the work has been completed and you are enjoying your new look, it will only be obvious to those who see you all the time. Others will assume you have always been blessed with a naturally beautiful and healthy smile.

A cosmetic dental consultation is informative and enjoyable. As the patient, you’ll have the opportunity to describe your goals and expectations. If this is your first visit to the practice, you’ll discover how comfortable you feel with our dentists and other members of the treatment team. Cosmetic dentistry consultations help us provide the highest level of Dallas area dental care.
This is the time to ask questions about possible procedures such as teeth whitening. You can look at pictures of actual porcelain veneer patients and dental implant recipients. Our cosmetic dentistry patients really get excited when they see images of the possible results for their teeth.
By listening effectively and asking the right questions, Drs. Miranda and Lepard can fully assess the many variables unique to your needs.
Drs. Miranda and Lepard thoroughly examine the teeth, gums and biting function. Complete x-rays are taken. Existing dental work, tooth color, tooth alignment, and gum condition are taken into consideration. Medical history and lifestyle are also important factors. Dallas cosmetic dentistry costs are outlined.
Taking the first step by scheduling a cosmetic dental consultation is your key to understanding your options and preparing to make decisions. Learn about the possibilities for your smile at Travis Walk Dental Care; give us a call at 214-522-4330.

We are Drs. Miranda and Lepard of Travis Walk Dental Care. Our office is located at 4514 Travis Street, Suite 117, Dallas, Texas. One of the best things about being Dallas area dentists is interacting with our patients. During initial dental consultations, we listen carefully to our patient’s short and long term dental goals.
We enjoy discussing options and developing effective treatment plans tailored specifically to each person. Some of our clients desire a total smile makeover. We explain in detail the treatments available including teeth whitening, dental veneers, orthodontia, crown restoration, and dental implants.
If a client is nervous about undergoing treatment, we discuss oral conscious sedation. Oral conscious sedation, sometimes called oral sedation dentistry, is a great option for anxious patients. Dental visits do not have to be painful!
After the treatment has been completed, it is very gratifying for us to see our patient’s reaction to their new smile.
We never get tired of creating dramatic smile transformations for the best clients in Texas!
If you have been considering a smile makeover, let’s talk about your smile. Call Travis Walk Dental Care at 214-522-4330 to schedule a cosmetic dentistry consultation.

Myth #1: Cosmetic Dentistry is Never Necessary for a Healthy Smile
Many so-called Dallas cosmetic dental procedures are not solely cosmetic. Dental procedures such as tooth replacement are smile-enhancing and, more importantly, prevent many potential problems such as tooth movement, bone loss and difficulty chewing and speaking.
Myth #2: A Dallas Dental Bridge is the Only Way to Replace a Missing Tooth
Dental bridges are a Dallas dental cosmetic procedure that have been used for many years with success. However, dental implants are often a better choice for replacing one or more missing teeth. Dental implants have many advantages for Ft. Worth dental patients. They feel like natural teeth, they are stronger, and they are easier to clean than dental bridges. Texas tooth implants can also be used to anchor dentures or partial dentures.
Myth #3: At-Home Kits are as Effective for Mid-cities Tooth Whitening Than a Professional Dental Solution
At Travis Walk Dental Care, we offer our Dallas dental patients teeth whitening treatments that provide a much greater level of whiteness than at-home kits. At-home kits may remove surface stains, but they do not provide optimum results and can often lead to uneven coloring.
Myth #4: Dental Bonding is the Best Way to Fix a Chipped Tooth.
Dental bonding can restore the shape of a tooth, but may not be the best long-term solution. If you have a damaged tooth, you may be a good candidate for porcelain veneers. Call us at 214-522-4330 to set up an appointment so we can determine the best solution for you.
Myth #5: Dallas Braces are the Only Way to Straighten Teeth
Braces are often part of a transforming dental makeover for our Dallas teens and adults alike. However, if your teeth are only slightly crooked, Invisalign invisible braces can reshape your teeth and dramatically improve your smile.
