The atmosphere was incredibly welcoming, which immediately put me at ease. Dr. LoPour is a fantastic dentist who truly cares about their patients. They took the time to explain each step of the process, ensuring that I felt comfortable and informed throughout my visit.

I have been going to Dr. Lopour for several years now and have always received EXCEPTIONAL service and care. Not only is the environment aesthetically beautiful (feels like I’m in Beverly Hills) and very clean, everyone that works here is always so gracious, personable and caring. It’s really a standard of excellence that rarely exists right now and I am very grateful for their service to our community.

Porcelain Veneers
Dentistry That Can Enhance Multiple Dimensions of Your Smile
Porcelain veneers are thin restorations designed to cover the front surface of a tooth. They conceal imperfections like cracks, chips, minor misalignment, wide spaces, and stains that do not respond to teeth whitening. Our Albuquerque, NM, practice has its own in-house ceramist who has crafted veneers and other custom restorations in our office for more than 25 years. Their refined craftsmanship can give you veneers that:
- Give your smile instant symmetry
- Look indistinguishable from natural teeth
- Provide a beautiful complement to surrounding teeth
- Last a decade or more with proper dental care
If you have dental imperfections that are not affecting your oral health, and don't necessarily require more extensive treatment such as orthodontics, porcelain veneers from our Albuquerque, New Mexico, practice can provide a dramatic smile upgrade in a matter of just a few weeks.
Smile Makeovers
Comprehensive Dentistry for an Entirely New Smile
Reaching a patient's goals sometimes requires more than one treatment. In these cases, Dr. LoPour can provide a complete smile makeover that combines multiple cosmetic dentistry solutions. For example, you may have one or more teeth that could benefit from veneers, but you also wish to brighten the color of all your teeth. By first providing a teeth whitening treatment, Dr. LoPour can work with his ceramist to create veneers that match the lighter shade of your smile. The result is a beautiful smile that is not only more symmetrical and healthy-looking, but also brighter.
The possibilities of a smile makeover by our Albuquerque, NM, dentist are virtually endless, making this one of the most exciting collaborative treatments we provide. If you need practical treatments such as dental implants, extraction, or a root canal, these can also be incorporated into your custom dental care. Reach out to our cosmetic dentist to explore what a smile makeover could do for you.
Other Cosmetic Dentistry Treatments Dental Care for a More Beautiful Smile
Teeth Whitening
Genetics, certain medications, and years of starting your day with a cup of coffee can cause your teeth to look dull or stained. Fortunately, modern teeth whitening treatments by our Albuquerque, NM, practice can illuminate your smile without looking artificial. Dr. LoPour can customize your whitening treatment to provide a safer, more effective, and far more comfortable solution than any over-the-counter whitening product is capable of. If you are dissatisfied with the look of your smile, whitening can be a powerful first step toward the smile you have always wanted.
Invisalign
Orthodontics can provide a straighter and more attractive smile and enhance your oral health by making your teeth easier to clean. Fortunately, achieving dental alignment doesn't necessarily require wearing metal brackets and wires. Invisalign® is a simplified approach that uses clear removable mouthpieces that can provide the same results while allowing you to eat any foods you want. You can also continue to brush and floss normally. Like traditional orthodontics, Invisalign is covered by many basic dental insurance plans. Our Albuquerque, dentist can determine if Invisalign is right for you.
Dental Crowns
Dental crowns are traditionally a practical dentistry treatment used to repair severely compromised teeth or replace lost teeth in conjunction with dental implants. However, if you have a tooth with imperfections that can't be concealed with a porcelain veneer, Dr. LoPour may be able to enhance the tooth with a custom crown. Like all the restorations our Albuquerque, NM, practice provides, your crown will be carefully crafted to look absolutely natural and provide an attractive complement to surrounding teeth in terms of their size, shape, and color.
Dental Bonding
Dental bonding is a process of artfully applying tooth-colored resin to a tooth to conceal minor imperfections such as chips, cracks, or wide spaces. This treatment can typically be completed in a single office visit. Although extensive bonding is not as durable or natural-looking as porcelain veneers, it is a more affordable alternative that can help you decide whether you would eventually like to invest in a more premium dental solution from our Albuquerque, NM, dentistry practice.
Budgeting for Cosmetic Dentistry
Because cosmetic dentistry is considered elective, basic dental insurance does not provide coverage. Fortunately, our dentist puts these enhancements within most budgets by working with CareCredit® financing. This popular third-party lender makes elective dental care affordable through both low-interest and interest-free financing based on your credit score. Our dental staff will be glad to answer your questions about this option after you meet with our dentist for a consultation.
