Frequently Asked Questions About Cosmetic Dentistry

Question: Does Dr. Diep Truong offer professional teeth whitening?

Answer: Yes. In fact, your Dallas TX cosmetic dentist actually offers two forms of professional teeth whitening. Our in-office system brightens smiles in under an hour. Our home-based system erases discoloration using a set of custom-made trays and a special bleaching solution.

Question: Can dental bonding repair a broken tooth in one visit?

Answer: Yes. Dental bonding involves placing several layers of composite resin on a damaged or stained tooth. This is the same material used to make white fillings. The material can be shaded to blend with surrounding teeth, returning a tooth to full function in one visit.

Question: What are porcelain veneers?

Answer: Veneers are thin shells made from porcelain. They are custom-made based on impressions of your tooth. Your Dallas TX cosmetic dentist will place them on the front of the tooth using a powerful bonding agent. Veneers address multiple cosmetic issues, including correcting the appearance of minor misalignment, masking permanent teeth stains, repairing cracked or chipped teeth, closing gaps between teeth, and reshaping worn down or malformed teeth.

Question: Does my Dallas TX cosmetic dentist offer gum contouring?

Answer: Yes. Many people feel self conscious about their teeth due to excessive gingival display, or a “gummy smile”. This occurs when the gums cover the too much of the tooth, causing the teeth to look small. To correct this issue, Dr. Truong employs Electrosurge. This advanced technology allows Dr. Truong to remove excess gum tissue and reshape the gums.
