FAMILY DENTISTRY
WELCOME TO OUR FAMILY!
At Cosmetic Dentistry of Murfreesboro you aren’t just another patient, you are a part of our family. We are your friends, your colleagues, your neighbors. We all eat, sleep, live and breathe right here in Murfreesboro, TN just like you do. We try to take the time to get to know each and every patient and what is important in their dental health at the moment. We see patients from ages 2 to 102 (actually I think currently our oldest patient is in their mid 90s, but you get the idea!) We are currently treating our third generation of patients. We want you to know that we are here for you.
WE ALSO DO “REGULAR” DENTISTRY
Many people ask us all the time: “Do you only do cosmetic dental work, or do you do regular dentistry as well?” Truth be told, we should be called “70% Regular Family Dentistry and 30% Cosmetic Dentistry of Murfreesboro.” Our main dental procedures on a day-to-day basis are general, family dental care such as routine dental examinations, digital dental x-rays, bi-annual dental teeth cleanings, fillings, root canals, crowns, implants and bridges. However, we do all of those things with a close focus on how they will impact the overall cosmetic appearance in the mouth of each patient. We have not placed an ugly silver filling in any patient since 2000. We only use tooth-colored, light cured composite resin fillings. We no longer use any metal in any of our crowns or bridges either. So there is never that ugly dark-looking line at the gumline. We use only zirconia (Bruxzir) and lithium disilicate (E-MAX) materials for our dental crowns and bridges. We use a high-tech, intra-oral dental scanner to make our dental “impressions” now - no more goopy stuff to gag you! We have a live person from here in our office to always answer your calls. We don’t use a third party call center or answering service. Dr. Nicholson’s personal cell phone number is always on our answering machine, should you need to contact him by either phone or text. We want you to know that we are here for you and your family and that everyone is always welcome here.
THIS IS US
As a full-service family dental office and dental design studio, Cosmetic Dentistry of Murfreesboro also offers the following cosmetic services:
Teeth Whitening (aka Bleaching)
Crowns
Bonding
Clear Aligner Therapy (aka Invisalign)
Dental Implants
Dr. Nicholson applies the same expertise and artistry when additional repairs are needed in the best interest of the patient’s health, like:
Tooth-colored fillings: Sometimes referred to as “composite” or “white” fillings, these are safe and durable when a cavity needs to be filled.
Clear Aligner Therapy also known by the trade name “Invisalign.” This is where clear removable trays are used to straighten your teeth without ugly wire braces.
Root Canals: Sometimes referred to as “endodontics,” root canals can save a tooth even when its soft interior (called the “pulp chamber”) becomes infected. Once we clean out what’s bothering your tooth, it will continue to function without the pain and sensitivity you were likely experiencing before the procedure.
Emergency care: Yes, call us. Yes, we will see you. Priority is given to regularly scheduled patients.
