Cosmetic Dentistry
Improving your smile with cosmetic dentistry is a little like investing in a new outfit; you do it because you know you will look great and because it will give your confidence a boost.
Dr. Christine Brown is an experienced cosmetic dentist in Portland who is passionate about creating healthy, beautiful smiles for her patients. If you're tired of hiding your smile, she will work closely with you to put together a treatment plan that gets your oral health up to par and resolves all the flaws you don't love.
Whether your goal is whiter teeth or a total smile transformation, Dr. Brown would love to help you!
What Cosmetic Dentistry Can Do for Your Smile
There is no shortage of dental services that improve the health and aesthetics of your smile. We often first think of treatments like veneers, bonding, and teeth whitening. But today, even fillings and crowns are aesthetic because Dr. Brown uses them to enhance your smile and improve your oral health.
Take a look at all the smile flaws we can help you resolve with cosmetic dentistry:
- Teeth with chips along the edges
- Broken or cracked teeth
- Gaps and spacing issues
- Mild tooth misalignment
- Teeth that look too long or short
- Shape or size discrepancies
- Stained, discolored, or yellow teeth
The first stop on your smile journey is to meet with Dr. Brown at Vermont Hills Family Dental. During this appointment, she will ask you about your dreams and desires for the appearance of your teeth. She will perform a thorough examination and explain all the treatment options available to you to help you achieve those goals.
The foundation for a beautiful smile is healthy teeth and gums, and we start to improve your appearance by improving your oral health. We will address any underlying dental issues like cavities and gum disease first. Then, combining art and science, Dr. Brown uses natural-looking dental materials to design and deliver your flawless, one-of-a-kind smile.
We Offer Full Mouth Reconstruction
There's an old saying that if you're good to your teeth, they'll be good to you. All too often, however, we let time and wear take its toll, and improving our smiles also requires restoring lost function due to decayed, worn, broken, or missing teeth.
As an experienced cosmetic dentist, Dr. Brown knows how to guide you to the treatments and services that are just right for you. She may recommend restorative tooth crowns and fillings for dental damage, and bridges, dentures, and dental implants to replace missing teeth.
Your smile plan may also include aesthetic dentistry like dental bonding or one or two veneers strategically placed to add balance and harmony to your smile. And no full smile makeover is complete without the finishing touch of a dazzling smile, thanks to professional teeth whitening.
Are You Ready to Get Started?
Dr. Christine Brown enjoys creating beautiful smiles with cosmetic dentistry as much as she does restoring function and appearance to broken and missing teeth. Since 2001, Dr. Brown has been providing high-quality dentistry and personalized care to her valued patients in Portland and the surrounding communities of Vermont Hills, Hillsdale, and beyond.

I can’t thank them enough for the wonderful service
Far and away the best dentist ever. Visiting Dr. Brown and her staff is more like hanging out with friends than going to a medical appointment. Staci at the front desk and Christina, the hygienist, I see often. I can’t thank them enough for the wonderful service the last 10 or so years. If you are looking for a new dentist, look no further!
