Cosmetic Dentist of Lexington KY

From a young age, Morgan Chambers’ love of science and passion for helping others translated into an interest in medicine. She found that dentistry was the best way to combine these interests into a rewarding career.

The clinic performs general, cosmetic, and sedation dentistry services. It also provides dental implants and crowns, as well as porcelain veneers and non-metal fillings. It also offers teeth whitening and occlusal splint treatment for TMJ.

Dental Implants

Dental implants are one of the most popular solutions for replacing missing teeth. They restore both functionality and appearance and are a better solution than removable dentures because they don’t require damaging healthy adjacent teeth. Plus, they stimulate bone growth to prevent bone loss.

The dental implant procedure is minor, although some patients experience tenderness and soreness after surgery. These sensations are usually mild and can be easily alleviated with medication until they resolve on their own.

The team at Dentist of Lexington KY works with each patient to determine what treatment is best for them. Its dentists are trained in a variety of dental techniques and offer a wide range of services including routine cleanings and exams, digital x-rays, teeth whitening, porcelain crowns, and veneers. The clinic also provides treatments for jaw pain, migraines, and snoring with an FDA-approved sleep appliance. It serves patients of all ages and specializes in cosmetic, restorative, and laser dentistry.

Lumineers

Lumineers are ultra-thin porcelain veneers that can be used to correct an array of cosmetic dental issues. They can hide intrinsic tooth stains, close gaps between teeth and make slightly crooked teeth look straighter. They can also reshape or resize teeth and cover up chipped or worn down teeth. They can even replace amalgam fillings, thereby providing a more aesthetically pleasing and healthier smile.

The Lumineers procedure typically involves two visits to the Dentist of Lexington KY. During the first visit, the dentist will consult with you and take X-rays of your mouth. Unlike traditional veneers, the dentist will not have to remove any enamel to apply Lumineers.

This makes the process quicker and less invasive. Lumineers are very strong and durable, and if cared for properly, they can last for 20 years or more. They are also a good choice for people who have sensitive teeth, as they can protect them against hot and cold foods and drinks.

Botox & Filler

If you’re in the mood for a non-invasive way to reduce wrinkles, dermal fillers and botox may be right for you. These injections are used to treat wrinkles by temporarily paralyzing the muscle in the area of the injection. They’re not covered by insurance, but they can be a cost-effective preventative measure to reduce the appearance of fine lines.

You should note that both Botox and dermal fillers have side effects, but they’re not the same thing. Botox works well on the lines that are created by movement, such as frowning. It’s less effective on the lines that remain even when you’re not making an expression.

The team at Commonwealth Smiles of Lexington KY is skilled and provides an excellent experience for patients. They’re a family dental clinic that offers general and cosmetic treatments, including teeth cleaning, digital X-rays, porcelain crowns and veneers, tooth-colored fillings, and implants. They also provide a range of sedation options, including inhaled, oral, and IV.

Sleep Appliances

Our team treats a range of oral conditions, including snoring and sleep apnea. Our sleep apnea expert is Trish Takacs, who is a Diplomate of the American Board of Dental Sleep Medicine and completed a mini-residency on sleep disorder management. She has experience treating a wide variety of sleep apnea cases using a customized oral appliance that is thin, lighter, and more comfortable than the cumbersome CPAP mask.

We also treat a variety of non-tooth related pain conditions, such as dry mouth (Sjogren’s Syndrome), burning mouth disorder, and temporomandibular joint disorders, which include clicking, popping, or locking of the jaw, and facial pain relating to muscles of mastication or nerves (trigeminal neuralgia, neuropathic pain). We care for children and can help alleviate sleep problems associated with snoring and obstructive sleep apnea with oral sleep appliances.
