Enhance your smile with cosmetic dentistry!

We offer a wide range of cosmetic dentistry services at Highland Dental Clinic in the heart of South Lakeland, FL, including porcelain veneers. These cosmetic restorations are designed to look like your natural teeth, concealing the front part of your teeth to enhance the overall aesthetics of your natural smile. By addressing common dental imperfections on the front teeth, you can transform your appearance in just two appointments. Dr. Blanca Fernandez and her team educate patients on how these restorations enhance smiles.

So, what exactly are dental veneers?

Fernandez describes dental veneers as slim, tooth-colored porcelain shells custom-made to bond with your teeth tightly. Veneers seamlessly blend with natural teeth, correcting issues like shortening, reshaping, and changing the color of discolored teeth.

For those located in Bartow, Winter Haven, Plant City, and South Lakeland, Florida, and desiring a more attractive smile, Dr. Fernandez and her dedicated, experienced team provide a range of cosmetic dentistry services. Cosmetic dentistry is a specific focus in a dental practice that helps to make aesthetic improvements to the smile. Imperfections such as misaligned, chipped, or stained teeth can be easily corrected with certain cosmetic dental treatments. Let’s take a closer look at cosmetic dentistry and find out what situations may warrant the assistance of a skilled aesthetic dental team.

What cosmetic procedures does your office provide?

Our dedicated dental team provides a wide range of aesthetic dental treatments to the South Lakeland, Florida community, ensuring access to solutions for an enhanced smile. Here’s a list of some of our currently available services:

  • Porcelain veneers. These enamel-like shells cover your smile’s flaws, focusing on the teeth visible when you smile. We offer traditional and reversible minimal-prep veneers, depending on a patient’s needs.
  • Full mouth restoration. If you have experienced significant tooth damage or loss, Dr. Fernandez and her team comprehensively renovate the smile with full mouth restoration. This smile makeover treatment includes a combination of procedures over time. The treatment plan is customized to the patient and their specific aesthetic goals.
  • Crown lengthening/gum recontouring. Those with “gummy” smiles can undergo a process to remove excess gum tissue, leading to a more aesthetically balanced smile that improves appearance and confidence.
  • Smile whitening. The easiest and most consistent method for brightening teeth and improving the appearance of your smile is through professional teeth whitening. We also offer single-visit, in-office treatments and recommendations for take-home professional-strength solutions!
  • Composite bonding. Dr. Fernandez and her team use dental bonding techniques to conceal imperfections in a single visit, such as chipped, cracked, or permanently discolored teeth. This procedure is more affordable than porcelain veneers but may need to be replaced sooner as they are susceptible to staining. Most patients can expect their bonding to last a few years before replacement is required.
  • Inlays and onlays. Inlays and onlays are dental restorations used to address tooth decay and the damage caused by it without needing to remove as much natural tooth structure as with regular fillings. Dental bonding is made from composite material or porcelain and enhances appearance.
