Having a bright, white smile can make you look younger, healthier, and more attractive. If you are interested in tooth whitening to improve the appearance of your smile, you may be wondering if at-home or in-office whitening is right for you. Here is a look at why you should see your Houston dentist for your tooth whitening treatments:
It Is More Effective
Professional whitening is simply more effective than the treatments you can purchase over the counter. Your dentist can evaluate your teeth to determine what the current shade of your teeth is and how the color can be improved. Next, your dentist can carefully apply a whitening solution to your teeth that is stronger than the ones available in a drug store. Your cosmetic dentist can then use a special light to activate the whitening solution and provide you with optimal whitening results.
The Results Last Longer
Changes to the color of your teeth occur naturally due to age and the consumption of food and beverages, so no tooth whitening treatment is permanent. However, you can achieve results that last for several months and even years with professional tooth whitening treatment. This means that you’ll be able to enjoy a bright smile for far longer without having to worry about using another set of whitening strips or another over-the-counter whitening kit.
It Is a Smart Investment
Professional whitening may initially be more expensive than at-home treatments. However, if you compare the one-time cost of long-lasting professional treatment with the price of the several at-home whitening kits you’d need to achieve similar results, you’ll see that in-office tooth whitening is a great investment for your smile.
Before trying any tooth whitening solution, it is important to consult a cosmetic dentist for recommendations and an assessment of your dental health. At Memorial Park Dental Spa in Houston, we offer a number of cosmetic dentistry services, including tooth whitening, to help you get the beautiful smile you’ve always wanted. Call (713) 864-3800 to schedule a consultation and find out if professional whitening is right for you.

If you have a damaged tooth, your dentist may recommend covering it with a crown. Dental crowns are important tools used to improve the shape, strength, and aesthetics of teeth. Continue reading to learn more about why a cosmetic dentist may recommend treatment with a dental crown.
Protecting Weakened or Cracked Teeth
A dental crown is a tooth cap that is made of metal, porcelain, or both metal and porcelain. A dentist may place a crown over a tooth that has been weakened by decay or a crack to protect the tooth and prevent further damage.
Improving the Appearance of Teeth
A porcelain dental crown can be shaped and colored to resemble a healthy tooth. This allows dentists to use crowns to restore the appearance of chipped, discolored, or misshapen teeth. By forming a mold of the affected tooth and choosing the best color for your smile, your cosmetic dentist can create a crown that blends flawlessly with the rest of your teeth.
Completing Dental Restorations
If you are missing one or more teeth, your dentist may use dental implants or a bridge to restore your smile. Crowns are used to complete each of these dental restorations. For dental implants, your dentist will attach dental crowns to the top of each replacement root. If your dentist treats the gap in your smile with a bridge, dental crowns will be placed on the teeth to either side of the bridge to hold it in place.
Covering Large Fillings
If you have lost a large amount of a tooth due to decay, your dentist can restore the tooth with a dental filling and then cover the tooth with a crown. This both hides the filling and adds extra stability to the tooth.
