Cosmetic Dentistry

A smile that looks like you, only better

Cosmetic dentistry should never look obvious. After more than 25 years designing smiles, Dr. Tajalli plans around your face, your age and the way you speak and laugh, so the result is natural, balanced and unmistakably yours.

Cosmetic Dentistry at Uptown Dentistry in Houston

Porcelain veneers

Thin, custom-crafted porcelain shells cover chips, gaps, permanent stains and worn edges. We begin with a digital design and a preview so you can see and approve the shape before anything is made permanent.

Cosmetic bonding

Bonding is the conservative option. Tooth-colored composite is sculpted directly onto the tooth to close a small gap, repair a chip or reshape an uneven edge, usually in one appointment and without removing much enamel.

Professional whitening

In-office whitening brightens several shades in about an hour. Custom take-home trays let you maintain the result and touch up after coffee, tea or red wine. Both are far more predictable than drugstore strips.

Full smile makeovers

When several concerns overlap, we plan them together rather than one at a time. A makeover may combine aligners, whitening, veneers and gum contouring in a sequence designed to protect healthy tooth structure.

Common questions

How long do veneers last?

With good hygiene and a nightguard if you grind, porcelain veneers commonly last 10 to 15 years or more.

Will whitening hurt?

Some patients feel brief sensitivity for a day or two. We use desensitizing agents to keep it minimal.
