Dental Examination
Your first appointment will let us get to know you. Dr. Alani will listen to your concerns and ideas, then complete a comprehensive oral exam so that she can develop a targeted plan of action. Dr. Alani checks the blood pressure of every new patient she sees. Just as no two thumbprints are identical, no two smiles are alike, so our team will devise a detailed blueprint for your transformation. We may suggest a single service or a combination of treatments to revive your oral health and refresh your appearance. Explore our dental services in Houston on the pages linked below.
X-rays
Digital dental X-rays are a new diagnostic tool that emits less radiation and produces higher-quality images. Although X-rays have been around for decades, previous radiographs proved more harmful and took much time to develop. Fortunately, thanks to advanced dental technology, digital radiographs can be easily stored and sent to laboratories and other physicians in a matter of minutes. This eliminates much of the time a patient might have to wait to receive a customized restoration or further diagnosis.
Oral Cancer Screening
On average, oral cancer kills one person every hour in the United States. There are more people dying from it per year than from cervical cancer, laryngeal cancer, testicular cancer, skin cancer, or Hodgkin’s lymphoma. Why do so many people die from oral cancer Very often, it’s because a diagnosis isn’t made until the disease has already reached an advanced stage. To effectively treat oral cancer, a diagnosis must be made when it’s first developing. That's why we proudly offer oral cancer screenings in Houston as part of your routine dental checkups.

Teeth Cleaning
Not only is it recommended by Dr. Alani, but the American Dental Association recommends that patients see their dentist every six months for a dental checkup and teeth cleaning. It is during these visits that we can check for signs of bleeding gums, decay, damage to teeth and restorations, as well as oral cancer. Early detection of any type of oral health problem is best, as it minimizes your chances of requiring extensive and costly restorative treatment in the long run.

Fillings
Resin Composite
Fillings enable our team to take care of small cavities in a single appointment, and because we use composite resin instead of amalgam, the final restoration perfectly blends in with the rest of the enamel. Our tooth-colored fillings also can be placed without us having to remove healthy tooth structures to make room, so the repair not only looks more natural but can be trusted to last longer than a traditional filling.
Veneers
You may already know that dental veneers enhance a smile by concealing flawed teeth and conspicuous spaces, but did you know that existing teeth must be filed down before your dentist permanently applies them? Thankfully, due to new and improved technology, we are now able to remove much less tooth structure than before while still achieving beautiful and lasting results. Dr. Alani is a cosmetic dentist with decades of experience creating personalized makeovers, and she has partnered with one of the leading dental labs in the country to ensure her patients don’t just like their new smiles — they absolutely love them!
Crowns
When you develop a cavity, Dr. Alani will remove the decay and place a filling that matches your tooth's color. If your tooth has extensive decay or a fracture, we may recommend placing an all-porcelain dental crown in Houston. Designed to restore strength, function, and appearance, a porcelain dental crown fits snugly over the remaining, healthy tooth structure.
Bridges
A dental bridge offers a relatively simple way to replace one to three teeth in a row. A crown is fitted over the remaining teeth on either side of the gap, and these are used to support dental crowns. Our bridges are made from tooth-colored materials so they look perfectly natural, and they are also strong enough that patients can eat whatever they like without having to think twice about their prosthetics.
Dental Bonding
Is your smile not quite looking the way you want it to? Wish you could make adjustments that are effective and long-lasting without breaking the bank? If you have a chipped, slightly misaligned, or otherwise imperfect tooth that needs cosmetic restoration, we may suggest cosmetic dental bonding in Houston. Not only is this treatment incredibly effective at addressing minor imperfections in teeth, but it’s actually far more versatile than you think. Learn about the process by giving Dr. Alani and her dental team a call today!
Restorative Dentistry
Tooth enamel is one of the hardest substances in the human body, but daily living and lifestyle choices can eventually damage your teeth. Broken, missing, or decaying teeth will compromise your appearance and health. We offer restorative dentistry in Houston to revitalize oral health and beauty and will be happy to schedule an appointment for you when you are ready to come see us. Call us today!

Root Canal Treatment

Deep Cleaning
We’ll examine your gums each time you come to see us, and if we see signs of the infection, we can handle it a few different ways depending on how advanced it is. Minor cases can usually be handled with diligent brushing and flossing at home. We can also perform scaling and root planing, which is a deep cleaning that helps remove the plaque that holds the bacteria which causes gum disease. Or, if it has progressed enough, we may recommend laser therapy, in which we use a beam of light to remove harmful bacteria, plaque, and diseased tissue quickly and painlessly.

Dentures
Made of a thin and flexible but strong acrylic, a Nesbit Partial is an excellent option for a patient who is only missing one or two consecutive teeth on one side of their mouth. Unlike a regular partial denture, a Nesbit is held in place using gum-colored clasps that blend into the smile. Aesthetically, it is seamless, and it also enables a patient to chew and speak comfortably. All in all, it’s a denture that doesn’t look like a denture!

Dental Implants
Today’s dentures are nothing like the ones your parents or grandparents had. They are extremely secure, exceedingly comfortable, and can be made to have a lifelike appearance that perfectly mimics nature. We can provide partial and full dentures depending on a patient’s needs, and we can even combine them with dental implants to give someone a rock-solid fit that will last for decades.

Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery

Oral Surgery
Thankfully, there’s no need to complete oral surgery or other regenerative procedures just to receive a gingival mask. Instead, Dr. Alani captures an impression of your teeth and gums using a disposable tray. This impression is then sent to a dental lab so it can be fabricated and customized to fit your smile exactly. The mask is so personalized that it only relies on your lip and moisture in your mouth to stay secure. Whether you want a short- or long-term solution for oversized teeth visible in your smile, a gingival mask can help get the job done!

Orthodontics
Invisalign Orthodontics
Instead of using metal brackets and wires to move the teeth, Invisalign relies on a progressive series of clear plastic trays. They simply slide on and off, and the patient swaps them as time goes by until their teeth reach their final position. Invisalign has been used to help millions of patients across the globe, which is why it is the only household name when it comes to clear aligner treatment.
Braces
Quick treatment. This treatment takes relatively little time, making it a great alternative to braces for folks who have gaps between their teeth or other instances of minor misalignment.

Teeth Whitening
If you would love to dazzle friends and family with a stunning image, consider professional teeth whitening in Houston. The Zoom! one-hour whitening system penetrates deep stains to deliver a bright, youthful smile. Although over-the-counter kits line the store shelves, and clinically unproven teeth whitening solutions flood the Internet, we recommend proven, dentist-recommended Zoom! one-hour whitening. Call us today to find out if you are a qualified candidate.
