Our Cosmetic Dentistry Services
Bonding
In this procedure, composite tooth-colored resin is shaped and bonded to the tooth’s surface to repair minor chips and cracks, cover discolored enamel, and close small gaps between teeth. It can also be used to reshape undersized, crooked, or misshapen teeth and rebuild areas where enamel erosion has taken place. Dental bonding is convenient, cost-effective, and minimally invasive.
Cosmetic Tooth-Colored Fillings
We offer cosmetic fillings made from composite resin material. Like bonding, the material used in tooth-colored fillings blends seamlessly with your natural tooth shade so your fillings will not be noticeable like traditional metal fillings are.
Crowns and Bridges
One of the most common and reliable ways dentists can restore both function and form to a damaged or decayed tooth is by applying a dental crown. Crowns are a versatile restoration: they finish off root canals, encase a damaged tooth to strengthen it and improve its appearance, and can be used in conjunction with a bridge to replace missing teeth. If you have a single tooth or multiple teeth that need restoration or replacement, Dr. Daggula has a solution that will work for you.
SureSmile Clear Aligners
SureSmile aligners are a great way to straighten your smile discreetly without having to sport a mouth full of metal brackets and wires like that of traditional braces. SureSmile uses a system of removable, clear plastic aligners to gradually straighten your teeth over time. This treatment is best for correcting mild to moderate orthodontic issues.
Teeth Whitening
Surface staining can be caused by external factors such as diet, tobacco use, or inadequate oral hygiene. Professional teeth whitening solutions are generally faster, more effective, and longer lasting than at-home over the counter products. If deep (internal) stains make whitening treatments impractical, you might consider bonding or veneers.
White Spot Removal Treatment
If you have white spots on your teeth due to enamel demineralization, or white spots caused by orthodontic treatment, our Arlington, TX dentist can help! ICON® white spot removal is a cosmetic treatment used to help restore a tooth's natural color and prevent the progression of early decay before it needs to be “drilled and filled”.

Maintaining Your New Smile
Maintaining a beautiful smile after cosmetic dentistry treatment does require some work. Brushing and flossing twice a day is strongly encouraged. Be sure to keep up with your regular scheduled dental checkups as well to maintain a healthy, beautiful smile. Avoiding smoking is the best care for your gums and teeth in the long run. Maintenance for cosmetic work varies depending upon the treatment, but it’s best to stay away from colored foods such as coffee, ketchup, fruit juice, etc. due to whitened teeth being more at risk of staining after treatment.
