Which Problems Can Cosmetic Dentistry Solve?

A confident smile can brighten conversations, photos, and everyday moments. But, when something feels “off,” it can also hold you back. Cosmetic dentistry offers a variety of options to improve the look and feel of your teeth, often with less effort than you might expect.

At Lynn Lane Family Dentistry in Broken Arrow, OK, Dr. Valerie Holleman helps patients explore cosmetic solutions tailored to their goals, from simple whitening to more comprehensive smile makeovers.

    Stains and Discoloration

    Teeth naturally dull over time, especially with regular coffee, tea, or red wine. At Lynn Lane Family Dentistry, patients can choose between two whitening options: KöR Whitening, which offers powerful in-office and take-home results, or Crest® 3D White™ Whitestrips™ Professional Supreme with AdvancedSEAL™, a professional-grade strip for convenience at home. Both options can lift deep stains and refresh your smile.

    Chipped or Worn Teeth

    Small chips and worn edges are easy to fix with bonding, a tooth-colored material shaped directly onto the tooth. For more visible wear, veneers or crowns can restore shape and strength while blending naturally with your other teeth.

    Gaps and Minor Misalignment

    Slight spacing or crowded teeth don’t always need traditional braces. Invisalign offers a nearly invisible way to straighten your teeth over time. For quicker aesthetic fixes, veneers can also close gaps and smooth out your smile’s appearance.

    Uneven Tooth Size or Shape

    If one or more teeth seem shorter, pointier, or just “off,” cosmetic reshaping, bonding, or veneers can create more balance. These small changes often make a big visual impact.

    Old Dental Work That Stands Out

    If silver fillings or metal crowns are taking the spotlight, cosmetic dentistry can help bring the focus back to your smile. Many older restorations—especially in visible areas—can be replaced with tooth-colored alternatives that blend more naturally with your existing teeth. Today’s materials not only look better, they’re also designed for strength and comfort. Whether it’s an old filling that’s darkened over time or a crown that doesn’t quite match, updating past dental work can refresh your entire smile without starting from scratch.
