At Proffitt Dentistry in Maryville, TN, we appreciate natural beauty. After all, we are surrounded by it! And, when we talk about being surrounded by natural beauty, we are not just referring to the Great Smokes, a stone’s throw away. Along with his team, Dr. Proffitt partners with patients to keep their teeth and gums feeling, functioning, and looking great. Should some aspect of your smile be marred by disease or damage, there is peace of mind that our dental procedures will rebuild teeth in a way that looks like natural teeth. No “toothy” veneers or “false” teeth here!
Dentistry that is “cosmetic” in nature focuses on rebuilding tissues to mimic the attractive appearance of the healthy structure. Patients elect to have these strictly cosmetic procedures done. The “foundation” of our tooth may be healthy. But, perhaps, aesthetic flaws such as dark stains or chips are present. Dr. Proffitt has the experience and training on advanced techniques and technologies to enhance your smile with:
Cosmetic bonding – Also known as “direct veneers,” bonding is a process that replicates enamel that has been chipped or is otherwise flawed. We remake tooth enamel with a durable and safe composite resin material. The resin is matched perfectly to the color of your teeth. Dr. Proffitt uses his skills to place and shape the resin, a putty-like material on the slightly prepared tooth. Depending on your needs, he may recontour an irregularly shaped tooth, cover up gaps between teeth, or disguise chips and other imperfections.
Other dental procedures at our office are primarily restorative. You need these treatments to resolve active decay or disease or other conditions that threaten your oral health. Our restorative offerings are as natural-looking and attractive as they are strong, healthy, and long-lasting. Treatments include:
