Dr. Scott Stewart is a quality, holistic dentist located in the Lakewood, Colorado area who can help patients interested in biocompatible dentistry. Unlike other dentists in the area, he not only provides general and holistic dentistry, but cosmetic dentistry as well. He understands that even though the health of the smile is important, so is its appearance. A beautiful smile can make a significant impact in one’s self-esteem and confidence and carry through in all aspects of their lives, including business and personal relationships. This is why Dr. Scott Stewart of South Lakewood Dental encourages his patients to educate themselves on the many cosmetic procedures available in his state-of-the-art, biocompatible dental facility. Some of these treatments include:
Full and partial dentures are a staple at the practice of Dr. Scott Stewart for patients who are dealing with tooth loss. In addition, he also provides quality dentures such as the Fountain of Youth Dentures™ which can not only repair the smile but give patients a more youthful appearance by reducing the hollowness that can appear in the face with traditional dentures.
Imperfections of the natural teeth can be covered with the use of porcelain veneers. These strong and beautiful restorations are made to bond over the front of a natural tooth to hide problems such as breakage and discoloration.
Missing teeth can also be restored with dental implants, a strong and permanent option for tooth loss. Patients can either repair a single tooth with dental implants, or place several of them in the dental arch to use with dentures for stabilization and strength.
Fillings are necessary for patients who have experienced areas of decay within the smile. While many dentists in the past have used silver amalgam filling, this material contains approximately 50% mercury and can cause mercury toxicity in patients who are exposed to it. Composite resin bonding fillings are much safer and more aesthetic, making them the optimal choice in repairing tooth structure.
Brightening the smile with professional-grade whitening products can provide far better results than anything available over-the-counter at the local drugstore. Our practice offers whitening trays which are custom-made to fit over the dental arch by using impressions to fabricate them.
