Smiling with confidence makes you feel great. A beautiful smile is also an important social and professional asset, linked to success at work, with friends, and even in love.
Unfortunately, there are many people who avoid showing their teeth in public or in photographs because they don’t like what others might see.
Even people who don’t hide their teeth are often dissatisfied with some aspect of their smile, and wish for improvement.
White is sometimes considered a ‘boring’ or ‘bland’ color, but this is never true of a brilliant, white smile! And a regular, attractive, and white smile has been proven to be advantage in life, work, and love.
Occasionally, however, dental help is necessary to maintain or repair a white smile. One of the simplest, quickest, and most economical dental cosmetic procedures is tooth bonding.
Bonding is just one procedure through which your Smart Smile dentist can help you attain a better smile, but it’s not your only option.
If you have a cracked, broken, severely decayed or worn tooth, then more than your beautiful smile might be at stake – in fact, your dental health might be at stake. With a dental crown, also called a dental cap, Smart Smile Dental in Deer Park can restore the form, function and strength to an otherwise compromised tooth. We’ve rebuilt many patients’ smiles with dental crowns in Deer Park, and we can do the same for your smile.
But, if you need dental crowns, or already have them, you probably share a question with many of our patients, “How long will my crowns last?” There is no specific answer to this, but since installation is a multi-step process, and crowns do cost money, maintaining them for as long as possible is key.

At Smart Smile Dental, we’re here to help you have a romantic and happy Valentine’s Day. Here are some hints to having a beautiful smile, bright, clean, and kissable for Valentine’s Day.

Everyone wants a beautiful, shiny, white smile. For most people, that is very possible if they know about and practice these dental tricks.
Brushing twice and flossing once a day are the first step. This practice keeps teeth clean from food particles that can form plaque and degrade tooth enamel.
Be sure to use a soft brush (so as to not damage gums) with a normal, fluoride enhanced toothpaste. Fluoride hardens tooth surfaces making them more robust against staining and decay. Fluoride mouthwash supplements the effects of fluoride toothpastes.
