Total Oral Health, Beautiful Results: Smile Design by Nashville Dentist, Kent E. White

Achieving comprehensive oral health and creating successful smile makeover designs requires time, patience and, most of all, covering all the bases. By focusing on a new era of diagnosis, computerized diagnostic tools and magnification as well as maintaining a high-level of training makes it possible to improve how people feel about their teeth, oral comfort and dentistry in general.

Predictable, consistent results allow Dr. White's patients to experience the confidence of a new smile, and others also get relief from decades of pain.

Whether seeking restorative and cosmetic dentistry enhancements or relief from specific pain issues, preliminary evaluations in the neuromuscular approach are followed to create a successful smile makeover, which means long term comfort and esthetic results.

As Dr. Kent E. White of Nashville explains, "It is important to treat the whole patient not just their teeth. This is not one-tooth-at-time, erratic patchwork dentistry; neuromuscular dentistry with full mouth treatment is planned, enduring success, which includes a beautiful, natural smile."

Is It Good That Silver Dental Amalgam Fillings Often Outlast Natural Teeth?

Nashville area dentist, Dr. Kent E. White approaches dentistry comprehensively. Wherever a patient is able to start from on their dental care, he can move ahead at that point.

Dentistry is most expensive when smile health is delayed. It's not possible to x-ray through silver-mercury dental fillings - so dentists are not able to see the decay, disease, etc - underneath.

Plus the bigger metal fillings are more likely to crack or in some cases also split apart. One vital idea to remember, pain is often the last thing to notify you that something is wrong.

The Picture of Dental Health: How About 5 Times That Plus!

Today, things should be better! The overall economy. Home prices. Health insurance... 

While there are many things we can't control, what about those areas we could change? Like something we would change if we discovered a better way forward, a different approach, a valuable advancement... 

Presenting pictures of how some of Dr. Kent E. White's patients have moved forward with their dental care is very helpful to many people. Yet, besides these pictures, the happiness, and confidence depicted and the oral health highlighted, each one has an individual story.

However, many of Dr. White's patients merely want more from their dentistry, not just what others usually get, history provided them or insurance suggests they need, maybe even all they deserve.

• What do you think of dental care today? 

• Have you decided to avoid going to the dentist because of the ongoing cost, visit anxiety or how dentists 'treat' you? 

• Does the dentistry you think of today, still remind you of the dentistry you received 20 or more years ago? 

No matter what your current circumstances are, there is a time that is right for you to move forward with the dental health you deserve. There is no pressure. Rushing you forward would be counterproductive. Dr. Kent White's dental team is prepared for you to decide on your care. 

'

As dentists providing advanced dentistry, Dr. White understands no one can be pushed into a decision that provides such a remarkable change in their overall personality. To rush you into such dental treatment, would not make possible the impressive value you see presented in this blog post. 

Additionally, and more vital to everyone's oral health, most of Dr. Kent White's patients come in exclusively for the comprehensive preventative care we provide. Advanced dentistry would not be advanced if it was merely 'cosmetic' dentistry. A term that is less helpful than the visual value it achieves. 

Cosmetic is not really what Dr. White's about, and never has been. Because it was 'simple' to understand cosmetic was heavily promoted during the early development of natural looking restorations and treatments like veneers, and porcelain crowns. 

Of course, Google encouraged the usage of the search term 'cosmetic dentistry' to such an extent it is difficult to not use this superficial term in some way. Otherwise, dentists would never have gotten out the message out about the initial advancements in dentistry that were concerned with more than cavities, fillings and fixing broken teeth. 

That said, Dr. Kent E. White, has for many years, been using the more comprehensive term of advanced dentistry, along with his additional expertise in Neuromuscular dentistry. The next step in his transition to even more advanced dentistry is to use the term biomimetic.

Since we are living longer, we want to keep our teeth even longer. To keep most of our teeth a lifetime, even all of them, which is more possible than many people think, we have to detect disease earlier on. 

Then we must realize, long term results require some element of long term thinking, an expectation of value, a realistic investment and a proper approach to achieve these goals, and protect them long term.

Biomimetics provides two basic and complementary perspectives. An open outlook to accept all the 'proven' advances, as well as focused attention on those dental health discoveries, developed from confirmed experience, which we don't want to unlearn.

Biomimetic dentistry is our way forward at this moment in the progression of 'advanced' dental care.

Not everyone will want to proceed in this way, but it does present obvious benefits. Seeing may not be believing for you; but these pictures offer a preview of what it looks like to take an advanced step toward complete oral health with external and internal happiness as a bonus.

Wherever you are at in the continuum of oral health, Dr. Kent White, and his dental team can start there, and move forward until reaching the goal you have determined. Knowing what is out there is the first step. 

Your call is the next one. CALL (615) • 208-9687

We hope to hear from you soon. Then picture yourself more confident, no matter what you decide about your care.

These lives and smiles were changed by...


Comprehensive Advanced Aesthetic Dentistry


Dr. Kent E. White’s expertise in aesthetic enhancement, restorative care, neuromuscular dentistry, biomimetics and laser treatment translates into comprehensive, long lasting and natural-looking solutions for his patients.

He is constantly in pursuit of the highest quality of care for his patients.

After Smile

Because people are much more health conscious and aware of how their smile can impact their confidence, Dr. White’s abilities fill an area of dentistry currently not comprehensively implemented or achieved very consistently. He has pioneered the use of metal-free ceramics and porcelain for crowns and veneers and resin restorative procedures instead of silver/mercury fillings.


As an instructor at the prestigious Las Vegas Institute, he was also able to share his expertise in creating beautiful new smiles. While at the LVI, he taught and mentored the top dentists in the world in the science and art of aesthetic dentistry. Currently, about one percent of dentists pursues this level of training.

In Nashville and other communities he is still teaching dentists the value of conservative, metal-free dentistry, and how to rehabilitate a smile and straighten teeth using non-orthodontic alignment. Finally, he uses his background in neuromuscular dentistry to offer you proper balance for pain free function.

Before

Includes Restorative/Reconstructive Dentistry
“Our goal is to restore teeth back to their original health, strength and beauty in the most conservative manner possible,” explains Dr. White. “We’re finding that, given the choice, most people would prefer to have the new dental materials and preserve healthy tooth structure rather than what is currently being taught in dental schools around the country.”

Dr. White has a high level of proficiency in reconstructive dentistry. He was one of the first dentists in North America to complete Full Mouth Reconstructive Training at the World’s Premier Post-Graduate teaching center. At the Las Vegas Institute for Advanced Dental Studies he undertook intensive hands-on training. He learned the latest principles of proper function.

After Smile

Given that training and his constant quest for better solutions, he is able to provide valuable treatments that give the patient many benefits including increased function, relief from years of pain, prevention of future discomfort and achievement of longer-term health.

In combination with his understanding of neuromuscular and aesthetic dentistry, Dr. White has transformed his practice into a place for healing, happiness and health.



Plus Neuromuscular Dentistry

This kind of expertise is unique. It’s an approach that looks at other causes for neuromuscular pain and prevention of pain before focusing all the attention on teeth. Neuromuscular dentistry isn’t brand new, but the diagnostic technology has caught up to the treatment.


If the muscles of your face and jaw are not in correct balance it can affect many other muscles of your head, neck, shoulders and back. Dr. White is able to determine your proper resting posture and then provide treatments that give you pain free results.

Dr. White Appears On MDTV - Featured Nashville Dentist

Program Featuring Dr. Kent E. White's 

Advanced, Comprehensive Approach To Dental Care

Local Nashville dentist, Kent E. White, DDS, was featured on MDTV, a show presenting local experts health and wellness. The show gave him the ability to provide insight into the dilemmas with presenting dental treatment today, and how to prepare his own patients for treatment plan presentation.

"When seen by dentists in the past, patients have been told that things were fine, because they based diagnosis on the presence or absence of pain," Dr. White said. "That troubles me, because usually that means the tooth is already in the process of 'dying' and it means we missed the opportunity to work on this tooth years ago."

Dr. Kent White explains in the MDTV program that he prefers stopping tooth deterioration before pain occurs, and before lasting harm can set in.

"Catch things before they hurt; that's really the philosophy that we use here," said Dr. White.

MDTV Video - Dr. Kent White - Here Also

Trained in advanced preventive, restorative, and aesthetic dentistry, Dr. White's office in Nashville offers a comprehensive array of services, from the purely cosmetic to the critically restorative. What interests Dr. White the most, perhaps, is the idea of giving his patients the best of both worlds-a healthy and beautiful smile that not only prevents pain and decay, but also gives his patients confidence in their smile.

Nashville area dentist, Dr. Kent E. White and MDTV showcase the benefits of avoiding or stopping tooth failure before pain and lasting harm occurs. The TV show and online video give him the chance to clearly explain the value of advanced dentistry. Including how a comprehensive dental approach is most beneficial, especially for patients still searching for the right solution, dentist and office.

Dr. Kent E. White, Nashville Dentist

"We're able to save most of our teeth with inlays or onlays," said Dr. White. "We basically restore the tooth back to its original health, strength, and beauty in the most conservative manner possible. That is the kind of dentistry that I think we should be moving forward with."

Aside from many dentists basing diagnoses on the presence of pain, Dr. White sees a real challenge in teeth that continue to decay behind or under a metal filling.

"There's not a day that goes by that we don't see a tooth that has a real large silver (mercury) filling that has split a tooth or has broken a part of a tooth," Dr. White said. "A big epidemic that we face is that we can't x-ray through them. These large metal fillings are outlasting our teeth."

Further, Dr. White noted how training and continuing education can vary greatly from dentist to dentist.

"Currently there are only 3-7% of dentists that go on to do clinical training or residency or a fellowship after dental school," is one example Dr. White cites.

More Smile Makeovers By Dr. White. 

While Dr. White treats each patient's mouth for health first and beauty second, he knows that many of his happiest patients chose to take a comprehensive approach. And doing so takes less time than patients expect, leaving them pleasantly surprised for the long term.

"Ideally we always want to treat the disease first and foremost, and most of the time when you're having comprehensive care done here, you're getting it all done at once."

Dr. White's reason for appearing on the program, distilled to its essence, was to spread the word to patients: look for a dentist who doesn't wait until you experience pain to treat your teeth.

 

"The primary purpose was to get the message out of alternative and contemporary methods to help alleviate periodontal disease and tooth deterioration. Make the public aware of just how catastrophic some of our issues are in dentistry right now. Give the public a view of what alternatives there are."
