Nothing gives me more satisfaction than helping Houston dentistry patients dramatically improve their smile and overall health with the latest tooth restoration procedures to correct dental problems and imperfections.

I enjoy consulting with my Cypress, Spring, and Champion cosmetic dentistry patients to create personalized Texas smile makeover treatment plans. At Willowbrook Dental Care, the treatment plan may include tooth bonding, porcelain veneers, or dental implants. For Houston dental patients with old or damaged crowns, we can provide beautiful new crowns. Tooth-colored dental fillings are popular for our Texas cosmetic dentistry patients who are happy to be free of unsightly old silver fillings. It is important to be examined by your Houston dentist regularly to check your previous dental work, including fillings, tooth bonding, veneers, crowns and bridges.

At Willowbrook Dental Care, we can tailor a cosmetic or restorative dental treatment plan to fit your budget. Houston tooth whitening is a surprisingly affordable way to attain a mega-watt smile without spending a lot.

Restorative and cosmetic dentistry can relieve pain, correct bite issues, and prevent future problems.

Afraid of the Dentist? Your Houston Sedation Dentist Can Help

Wednesday, December 23rd, 2009

Afraid of the Dentist? Your Houston Sedation Dentist Can Help If you live near Houston and experience severe anxiety when undergoing (or even thinking about!) dental treatment, oral sedation is for you.

Conscious sedation dentistry is available in Houston at Willowbrook Dental Care. We have been providing sedation dentistry in Houston for several years with excellent outcomes. Whether it is called relaxation dentistry, oral conscious sedation or anxiety-free dentistry, it is completely safe and very popular for our nervous cosmetic and restorative dental clients in the Houston area.

Though it may sound impossible, with oral conscious sedation, Houston dentistry patients can actually relax during dental visits. In addition, healing times for oral surgery and extensive cosmetic dentistry procedures are often shorter if the patient is sedated during treatment.

Sedation dentistry is great for alleviating anxiety for our Houston patients, and oral conscious sedation can be effective for treating or working with the following:

  • Teeth sensitivity;
  • Fear of needles;
  • A powerful gag reflex;
  • Difficulty controlling body movement;
  • Lengthy multi-procedure visits;
  • Difficulty becoming numb with traditional injections.

If you need dental work more extensive than a filling; such as a root canal, tooth implant, crown replacement or wisdom tooth extraction; call Willowbrook Dental Care at (281) 571-3760. When you come to our office at 17350 State Highway 249, Ste. 200, in Houston, Texas, we can give you more information about sedation dentistry.

Sedation dentistry is only one of the services we offer at Willowbrook Dental Care, where your smile is our top priority!

Multi-Procedure Dental Visits in Houston

Tuesday, November 24th, 2009

Multi-Procedure Dental Visits in Houston If you are planning extensive cosmetic dental work, you may be wondering whether to do it all at once or one procedure at a time over an extended period. Here are some factors to consider:

Cost
In the long run, It is less expensive to do it all at once. At Willowbrook Dental Care in Houston, we are able to complete several procedures in one visit. We know that complete smile transformations are a significant investment for most Houston residents. We would be happy to discuss affordable dentistry financing options. Call us at (281) 571-3760 to schedule a no-pressure consultation.

Time
With the latest materials and cosmetic dental techniques, healing times are shorter than ever before. However, some procedures such as bone grafting, soft tissue grafting, root canals, and dental implants often require a short healing period.

It is easier physically and psychologically to have the fewest possible visits to your Houston dentist. You should also consider how your dental visits and necessary healing periods will impact your employment and family life. You will have less down time if you receive several procedures at once.

Aesthetic Results
While we routinely achieve great outcomes when doing a smile makeover in steps, porcelain restorations are best fabricated in the same “batch” for the most precise color matching.

Sedation Dentistry
When you come in for a smile analysis, we can discuss oral sedation dentistry. Many cosmetic dental patients benefit from this safe and effective solution for pain and anxiety management. Conscious sedation is especially helpful for procedures such as multiple wisdom teeth extractions and dental implant placement.

Use Flex Account Funds for Houston Dentistry

Tuesday, November 17th, 2009

Use Flex Account Funds for Houston Dentistry If you have money in your Houston flexible spending account you may want to schedule some cosmetic dentistry before the deadline. Remember, you lose any funds left over after the plan year ends. Why not improve your smile with tax-free dollars?

Even a small change can make a big difference in the appearance of your teeth. You might consider getting a veneer for a chipped tooth or replacing a broken crown. Maybe you want to straighten your teeth with braces or replace amalgam fillings with clear ones that blend with your natural teeth. Tooth whitening is quick and easy and benefits even the most attractive smiles.

Perhaps aesthetic dentistry is not your first priority. Maybe you have a more pressing dental need such as a cavity that is bothering you or swollen gums. Don’t let these problems get worse and possibly more expensive to treat.

Call (281) 571-3760 to book a consultation at Willowbrook Dental Care in Houston. We are located at 17350 State Highway 249, Ste. 200, Houston, TX.

Dr. J. Scott Anderson is one of the most sought-after Houston dentists and stays at the forefront of cosmetic dentistry techniques and technology. A radiant smile is possible for anyone in the Houston area, regardless of issues such as tetracycline stains, periodontal disease, or missing teeth.

If you are planning to use flex account funds for Houston dentistry, make sure you check your employer’s guidelines for eligible cosmetic or restorative dental procedures.

With a smile makeover at Willowbrook Dental Care, what will your ‘after’ photo look like?

Correcting Severe Dental Problems in Houston

Tuesday, November 3rd, 2009

Correcting Severe Dental Problems in Houston Each separate restorative and cosmetic dentistry procedure performed in Houston can address a specific dental problem. For example, a porcelain veneer can perfect the surface of a tooth that is discolored or slightly misshapen. Dental bonding can fill a small chip in an otherwise healthy tooth.

Some Houston dental problems are more extensive and require a combination of procedures. Crown restoration combined with soft tissue grafts can restore a severely decayed tooth with the root exposed. A bone graft and dental implant can restore a missing tooth in an area where the jaw bone has receded. Orthodontia followed by tooth bleaching totally transforms a smile by straightening and whitening.

What is the difference between tooth bleaching and whitening? Whitening is the term for procedures which remove surface stains to restore the degree of natural lightness. Bleaching goes even further by lightening teeth beyond their natural shade. That’s right: you don’t have to resign yourself to yellow teeth even if they have been that way your whole life! The natural shade of your teeth, by the way, like your skin and hair color, is determined by genetics.

Some Houston smiles have been gleaming for years by regular whitening. You can maintain the whiteness of your teeth just as you maintain your fitness level. (Of course it is a lot easier to make a quick visit to your Houston dentist once a year for whitening touch-ups than sweating in a gym several times a week!)

We live in an age where severe dental problems can be permanently corrected. You don’t have to participate in a TV makeover show in Hollywood to access these premium cosmetic dental procedures. They are available right here in Houston. Dr. J. Scott Anderson has the same advanced training and extensive experience as the dentists who keep the smiles of famous actors and musicians camera-ready.

Schedule a consultation at Willowbrook Dental Care to discover the perfect combination of procedures to achieve your ultimate smile. Our phone number is (281) 571-3760.

Aesthetic Dental Transformations in Houston

Thursday, September 24th, 2009

Aesthetic Dental Transformations in Houston Many Houston professionals, students and retirees are enjoying the lasting benefits of aesthetic dentistry. A beautiful smile not only looks great, it makes you feel great! When you first look in the mirror in the morning while brushing those gleaming babies, you remember; oh yeah, I fixed my teeth and they look fantastic!

When you smile at old friends or make new ones, you are happy to show off your new movie-star grin. When you are in a professional setting speaking with colleagues or clients, you feel poised and super confident.

We have talked about different cosmetic and restorative dental procedures available in Houston in previous blog articles, but let’s review the most common.

Veneers are glass-like, wafer-thin covers that adhere to teeth. Porcelain veneers are strong and have the translucency of natural teeth. They correct chips, stains and misaligned teeth that do not require orthodontia. There are several companies that fabricate veneers. One of the most well-known brand names is Lumineers.

Crowns correct more extensive tooth problems. They are used in a variety of situations such as the final restoration following a root canal or to restore teeth damaged by decay, injury or periodontal disease.

Dental implants are one of the best fixes for a missing tooth. They are becoming a popular and effective alternative to bridges and partial dentures in Houston and surrounding areas, especially among middle-aged professionals and people in the public eye.

Bridges are another strong, natural looking replacement for one or more missing teeth. They have been used with success for many years.

Professional tooth whitening in your dentist’s office is the least invasive and quickest way to brighten your smile several shades. One of the most popular systems is called Zoom!.

If you are interested in any of these safe and effective procedures, schedule a consultation at Willowbrook Dental Care today. Even if you are still a bit hesitant, remember: discussing your options with a cosmetic dentist does not require a commitment of any kind. It is merely a relaxed way to get the most reliable information.

We are waiting for your call. Willowbrook Dental Care can be reached at (281) 571-3760.

Creating Memorable Smiles at Willowbrook Dental Care

Wednesday, September 2nd, 2009

Creating Memorable Smiles at Willowbrook Dental Care A smile takes but a moment, but the memory of it lasts forever. You can make your smile memorable and beautiful with a smile makeover at Willowbrook Dental Care in Houston.

Cosmetic dentistry is a broad term that specifies dentistry with an emphasis on aesthetics. Cosmetic dentists perform general dental procedures in addition to providing advanced cosmetic dental treatments. Houston cosmetic dentists have specialized training in the latest cosmetic dental procedures and techniques.

Dr. J. Scott Anderson of Willowbrook Dental Care in Houston is knowledgeable about the processes used to fabricate crowns, veneers, inlays, onlays, braces and dental implants. Advances in ceramic and composite materials have boosted the popularity of Houston cosmetic dentistry but these miracle materials are worthless without a skilled cosmetic dentist to incorporate them into a healthy and beautiful smile.

When designing a dental treatment plan for a patient, the client’s goals and expectations are discussed. The most skillful cosmetic dentists consider the shape, alignment, color and condition of the teeth. The cosmetic dental client’s age, health condition and lifestyle also influence the plan.

If you want to learn about the possibilities for your smile, call Willowbrook Dental Care at (281) 571-3760. We have created memorable smiles for many of your friends and neighbors in the Houston area.

Tooth Restoration in Houston

Friday, August 28th, 2009

Tooth Restoration in Houston At Willowbrook Dental Care in Houston, we use a variety of techniques to restore damaged teeth. Most Houston dental clients are familiar with fillings. Traditional fillings are also called ‘direct restorations‘ because they are applied to the tooth, shaped and polished in one visit.

Another type of filling is called an ‘indirect restorations‘ and is fabricated in a Texas dental lab. There are two types: inlays and onlays.

When a tooth needs more extensive dental restoration, a crown is often used. At Willowbrook Dental Care in Houston, we create strong, natural-looking crowns from a variety of materials.

What if the tooth is damaged beyond repair? There are a number of functional replacements for missing teeth. Dentures are not the only option.

Call (281) 571-3760 to learn about the restoration options available. We have been improving smiles for Houston area patients since 1988.

Willowbrook Dental Care is conveniently located at 17350 State Highway 249, Ste. 200, in Houston, TX. We provide quality dental care for Houston area families.
