The following smile flaws are common, and easily fixable with the help of Dr. Cottrill at Nashville Cosmetic & Implant Dentistry:
Tooth cracks may occur over time due to wear-and-tear, trauma, grinding, or biting down on something hard. Regardless of the cause, tooth cracks are common — but have an easy fix. Dr. Cottrill repairs cracks (tooth fractures) using tooth-colored bonding, inlays, onlays, crowns, or veneers to cover the crack, repairing it and safeguarding the affected tooth from further damage.
Tooth chips may appear after you bite down on a hard object or from tooth trauma, opening packages with your teeth, or grinding. Dr. Cottrill repairs chipped teeth with sanding, fillings, bonding, veneers, or crowns.
Tooth decay is a common problem that affects nearly 90% of adults. Treatment includes removing the decay and repairing affected teeth with fillings, a root canal in severe cases, inlays, onlays, or crowns.
Gapped teeth stem from numerous reasons, such as permanent tooth loss or genetics, but there are several ways to correct this common smile flaw. Nashville Cosmetic & Implant Dentistry offers crowns, bridges, dental implants, removable partial dentures, and more. Our practice also provides Invisalign® and clear braces to subtly eliminate minor tooth gaps.
Crooked teeth are easily restored at Nashville Cosmetic & Implant Dentistry using braces or Invisalign. The best orthodontic treatment for you is based on your preferences, lifestyle, and the severity of your tooth misalignment.
Dr. Cottrill extracts loose permanent teeth that can’t be salvaged, allowing him to replace a severely decayed or damaged tooth with a bridge, an implant supported crown, or dentures.
Whether you’ve undergone tooth extraction or some permanent teeth have fallen out on their own, Dr. Cottrill personalizes a plan that replaces tooth gaps with crowns, bridges, dental implants, or dentures/full-mouth reconstruction. He offers sedation and sleep dentistry to ensure you feel comfortable during dental procedures.
Tooth staining often results because of consuming certain foods and drinks (cola, red wine, tomato sauce, popsicles, coffee, tea, etc.), aging, or poor home oral hygiene habits. The fix is teeth whitening available at Nashville Cosmetic & Implant Dentistry, a simple and painless treatment that uses whitening gel to break up the stains. Veneers can also cover stained teeth.
Dr. Cottrill examines your teeth, bite, and smile — and reviews the results of your dental X-rays — to create a customized cosmetic dentistry solution that matches your goals. He may combine multiple treatments during a smile makeover to help you gain confidence, a more functional smile, and a better quality of life.
