Cosmetic Dentist in Murray, KY

When you look your best, you feel confident, and a beautiful smile is part of that equation. It’s actually one of the first features people notice when they meet you.

If you don’t feel confident about your smile, you may not be interacting with others in the way you’d like to, which can impact your personal and professional relationships.

The good news? Cosmetic dentistry can help you achieve the beautiful, healthy smile you’ve always wanted, and it may not be as complicated as you might think.

Cosmetic Dentistry at Arnett Dental Care

Dr. Arnett and Dr. Pruitt have helped hundreds of patients achieve their best smiles, and they can help you, too! Cosmetic dentistry is personalized and tailored to each patient’s unique needs and smile goals.

Some patients may just need a smile boost with professional teeth whitening, while others may require multiple procedures as part of a smile makeover plan to meet their goals. Here are just a few of the cosmetic procedures we may recommend:

• Teeth Whitening - We create custom plastic whitening trays from physical impressions of your teeth and provide professional-strength bleaching gel to safely brighten your smile at home on your own schedule. This personalized kit takes about 10 to 14 days of 30-minute daily wear to achieve your goals, and we offer gel refills right here at our Murray office.

• Dental Veneers - Veneers are thin layers of ceramic porcelain or composite resin bonded to the front of your teeth to instantly correct chips, gaps, or deep stains. We offer quick, single-visit composite veneers (dental bonding) as well as premium, lab-crafted porcelain veneers that completely redesign your smile over two appointments.

• Tooth-Colored Filling - Made of a durable, metal-free composite resin, these fillings are custom-shaded to match your natural teeth seamlessly. They are used to treat active decay or minor structural damage while keeping your smile looking bright and completely natural.

• Porcelain Crowns - Crafted from customized ceramic porcelain to closely mimic your natural enamel, a dental crown is a custom "cap" that anchors to your remaining healthy tooth structure. It is used to protect and restore teeth that are severely decayed, fractured, or weakened by root canal therapy, saving the tooth's root.

• Dental Bridges - A dental bridge uses two custom ceramic porcelain crowns anchored to your healthy adjacent teeth to support one or more natural-looking prosthetic teeth in between. It is used to fill physical gaps left by missing teeth, preventing your remaining teeth from shifting and restoring full chewing function.

• Dental Implants - Consisting of a tiny titanium post surgically placed into the jawbone that acts as a secure root, an implant is completed with a custom-fit porcelain restoration. They are used to permanently replace missing teeth to prevent shifting and bone loss while looking, feeling, and functioning like natural teeth.

• Full, Partial, or Snap-in Implant dentures - Built with life-like prosthetic teeth set into a comfortable acrylic base, these appliances are used to replace multiple or full arches of missing teeth. We offer traditional removable options as well as implant-secured, snap-in dentures that provide maximum stability and chewing power.

Whatever your needs may be, we will work to design a treatment plan that considers your smile goals, lifestyle, and budget. You will always have the final word on which treatment procedures we use to create your new smile.
