Modern cosmetic dentistry offers many ways to improve your smile.

Take all your dental worries to Cowlitz River Dental. Along with a complete oral examination, including periodontal probing, x-rays and oral cancer screening, your hygienist will remove tartar and plaque, polishing your smile and leaving it feeling refreshed. Any health concerns such as cavities or gingivitis will be addressed before proceeding to a cosmetic smile makeover.

Dr. Kennington will discuss your concerns about and goals for your smile. In other words, how would you like to improve it?  He can then offer treatment options that will fit your personality, wallet and schedule.

Among the cosmetic services offered are:

  •  in-office teeth whitening for a quick and safe color improvement of up to 8 shades
  •  porcelain veneers to cover stubborn stains, chips, and gaps and strengthen tooth structure
  •  solid porcelain CEREC One-Visit Crowns to makeover teeth with big fillings, fractures or decay
  • strong and lifelike dental implants fill gaps caused by missing teeth
  •  cosmetic bonding to fix small gaps and chips, smoothing and improving teeth for a natural and attractive look that lasts

For milder orthodontic problems, teens and adults enjoy the benefits of clear Invisalign® aligners that straighten teeth without traditional wires and brackets. For a rapid fix in a patient’s “smile zone” at the front of the mouth, SixMonthSmile braces gently move teeth into cosmetically better positions.

Teeth Whitening near Longview, WA

April 25, 2015

92589293Spring has sprung, so naturally it’s time for some cleaning. No, we’re not talking about cleaning the gutters, sweeping out the garage or weeding the flower beds. The kind of spring cleaning we’re talking about is the kind that leaves your smile fresher looking, too. At Cowlitz River Dental we offer teeth whitening, so the folks in Castle Rock, WA, near Longview, WA, and the surrounding communities will have even more to smile about this season.

Dr. L Blaine Kennington and his team know that there are many over-the-counter teeth whitening systems available in supermarkets, pharmacies and big box stores. However, the problem with those is that you never know how long they’ve actually been sitting on the shelf, which can affect the potency of the whitening formula. With the teeth whitening system that we use at Cowlitz River Dental, you can be sure that our professional grade gel is at the peak of potency.

Teeth Whitening in the Office or at Home

If you have a big event coming up this spring—a wedding, prom or a graduation—then you’ll want to choose our in-office teeth whitening system. In just one visit to our office in Castle Rock, you can have a smile that is several shades whiter and brighter. On the other hand, if your schedule doesn’t allow for another appointment—or if you’d simply prefer to whiten your teeth in the comfort of your own home—then we also offer a take-home whitening system. With this, you’ll receive custom-fitted trays and a professional grade whitening gel. Fill the trays with gel and wear them according to Dr. Kennington’s instructions and you’ll begin to see results in no time, with the best effect happening in about two weeks.

If you’d like to spruce up your smile for spring, then call us at Cowlitz River Dental in Castle Rock, WA, to find out more about teeth whitening. We conveniently serve patients from Longview, WA, as well as Castle Rock, Kelso, Lewis County and the surrounding areas.

Get the Beautiful, Summer-Ready Smile You Deserve with Professional Teeth Whitening

June 19, 2014

shutterstock_151234010Summertime is finally here, and with it come the many fun activities and social gatherings we all associate with the season. As you prepare to hit the beach, hang out at the pool, or head out to barbecue parties with family and friends, you want to be sure that you look your best. Is your smile summer-ready? At Cowlitz River Dental in Castle Rock, WA, Dr. L. Blaine Kennington and his team offer an extensive array of cosmetic dentistry services that help your smile shine, including professional teeth whitening treatments.

Why Choose Professional Teeth Whitening?

Unlike the teeth whitening kits you can buy over-the-counter at your local pharmacy or grocery store, the professional whitening services we offer produce quick, lasting results that brighten your smile by multiple shades, all in a way that is safe for your teeth and gums.

Because we know that your time is a valuable commodity and that convenience is key, we offer two teeth whitening options for men and women seeking a brilliantly lustrous smile that still looks natural. Both in-office teeth whitening and take-home teeth whitening kits are available, giving you flexibility and the power to choose which treatment best fits your needs.

In-office teeth whitening is ideal for patients looking to transform their smile in a single visit. In as little as an hour, you’ll see years of deep, set-in stains lifted from your enamel, revealing the gorgeously white smile you’ve always wanted. For patients who would prefer to whiten at home, we’ll create a set of custom teeth whitening trays that precisely fit your unique dentition. This helps ensure that the special whitening formula we provide effectively and evenly brightens each and every tooth. You’ll love your results, smiling confidently all summer long and throughout the year.

Your Beautiful Smile, Only Brighter

This summer, be sure that your smile makes all the right first impressions. Take advantage of our safe, effective, and proven teeth whitening services to reveal your most luminous, confident smile.
