Cosmetic dentistry is a branch of dental care that focuses on making improvements to the aesthetics of your smile. Cosmetic dentistry procedures can be used to correct imperfections in your teeth, such as chips, discoloration, cracks, and gaps. When it comes to achieving the perfect smile, many people find that combining multiple cosmetic dental procedures is the best way to achieve their desired results. At Lady Bird Dental in Austin, TX, we specialize in combining different cosmetic dental procedures to help our patients create a stunning smile they can be proud of.
At Lady Bird Dental, we understand that every patient’s needs are unique and requires personalized treatment. Therefore, we work one-on-one with each patient to design a treatment plan that works for them. Depending on the individual’s goals and budget, there are many different combinations of cosmetic dental procedures that can be used to give them their desired results. In this blog post, we will discuss some of the most popular combinations of cosmetic dental procedures that are often combined at Lady Bird Dental.
Teeth Whitening & Bonding
One of the most common combinations of cosmetic dental procedures is teeth whitening and bonding. Teeth whitening uses bleaching agents to remove years worth of stains from your teeth and leave you with a brighter and more youthful looking smile. After whitening your teeth, bonding can be used to fill in any chips or cracks in your teeth and improve their overall appearance. This combination is great for those who want an instant boost in confidence when it comes to their smile without having to make major changes to their teeth structure.
Veneers & Implants
Veneers are thin custom-made shells made out of porcelain or composite material that are designed to cover the front side of your teeth in order to improve their appearance. Veneers can be used for a variety of purposes such as correcting misaligned teeth or closing gaps between them. However, if your tooth has been damaged beyond repair due to decay or trauma then an implant may be needed before veneers can be applied. Combining implants with veneers ensures that you get the perfect smile without sacrificing any tooth structure or strength in the process.
Invisalign & Porcelain Crowns
Invisalign is an orthodontic system that utilizes clear aligners which gradually shift your teeth into the desired position over time through gentle pressure and force. While Invisalign is great for fixing minor imperfections such as crowding or spacing issues in your teeth, it cannot fix more serious issues such as broken or chipped teeth which require porcelain crowns instead. Combining Invisalign with porcelain crowns ensures that you get all your corrective needs taken care while still keeping a natural looking smile at all times throughout the process.
Bonding & Contouring
Bonding and contouring are two cosmetic treatments often combined together for more comprehensive improvements when it comes to improving one’s smile aesthetics without replacing any existing tooth structure. Bonding involves using a composite resin material which is applied directly onto your existing tooth structure so it blends in better with the rest of your surrounding teeth while contouring reshapes existing enamel by shaving off small amounts from certain areas so they align better with all other adjacent surfaces for an improved overall look and feel when smiling wide open. This combination is great for those looking for subtle yet significant improvements when it comes to their smiles without having to go through major reconstructive work like implants or veneer placements which can take longer periods of time and cost more money upfront before seeing any final results.

Combining multiple cosmetic dental procedures is often necessary when trying to achieve an aesthetically pleasing result when it comes to improving one’s smile aesthetics.
