Cosmetic Dentistry in Oconomowoc, WI | Expert Smile Designs

Expert Smile Designs provides cosmetic dentistry from its practice in
Oconomowoc, Wisconsin, under Dr. Tom A. Stamas and Dr. Paul Stamas. The
cosmetic dentistry services offered here focus on three areas: straightening,
whitening, and the broader planning work that falls under smile design.

Invisalign® clear aligners are offered as an alternative to conventional fixed
braces. The system uses a series of transparent, removable trays made to fit
the patient’s teeth, replaced at intervals as the teeth move. Because the
aligners come out for eating and cleaning, there are no dietary restrictions
and brushing and flossing continue as normal. Suitability depends on the
individual case, which is assessed at consultation.

Teeth whitening addresses discolouration that builds up over time from coffee,
tea, red wine, tobacco and ordinary ageing. Professional whitening is carried
out under dental supervision, which allows the condition of the teeth and gums
to be checked beforehand — relevant because existing restorations such as
crowns and composite fillings do not respond to whitening agents in the same
way natural enamel does.

Smile design describes the planning process rather than a single procedure. It
involves assessing how the teeth, gums and lips work together, then combining
whatever treatments are appropriate for that particular case. That might
involve whitening, alignment, restorative work, or some combination. The point
of this approach to cosmetic dentistry is that individual treatments are
planned as a whole rather than piecemeal.

The practice sits on Oconomowoc Parkway and serves patients from across the
Lake Country area of Waukesha County, including Delafield, Hartland, Dousman
and Watertown.

Cosmetic dentistry is elective treatment, and what suits one patient will not
suit another. Existing dental health, the condition of any previous restorative
work, and the patient’s own priorities all affect what is realistic. A
consultation is the starting point for establishing which options apply.
