    Cosmetic Dentistry

    LaserSmile

    LaserSmile is an in-office teeth whitening procedure that uses a higher grade of whitening power than any other professional system.  Results will last for years with consistent adherence to dentist prescribed oral care instructions.

    Invisalign

    Invisalign is a permanent way to straighten teeth and close gaps without the use of metal braces.  With this procedure, a removable plastic dental device that has been molded to your teeth is worn discretely anytime you chose.

    Porcelain Veneers

    Porcelain veneers are thin, porcelain sheath that are applied directly to teeth to improve the cosmetic look of your smile.  The strength and resiliency are comparable to natural tooth enamel.  It is often the material of choice for those looking to make slight position alterations, or to change tooth shape, size, and/or color.

    Dental Implants

    Dental implants are replacement tooth roots.  Implants provide a strong foundation for permanent or replacement teeth that are made to match your natural teeth.  Advantages of dental implants include: improved appearance of smile, easier eating and better digestion of food, improved comfort due to its fixed position, improved oral health and self-esteem.

    Dental Bonding

    Dental bonding is an option that can be considered to:

    • repair decayed teeth

    • repair chipped or cracked teeth

    • improve appearance of discolored teeth

    • change the shape of teeth

    • protect tooth's root exposed as a result of receding gums

    Bonding can be done in 1 office visit unless several teeth are invloved.

    Dental Inlays & Onlays

    Inlays and onlays are dental restorations are used to fill teeth.  Also known as indirect fillings, inlays and onlays offer a well-fitting, stronger, longer lasting reparative solution to tooth decay.  The restoration is dubbed an "inlay" when the material is bonded within the center of a tooth. Conversely, the restoration is dubbed an "onlay" when the extent of the damage requires inclusion of one or more cusps (points) of the tooth or full coverage of the biting surface.

    Porcelain Crowns

    Porcelain crowns are caps that replace the exterior portion of a tooth to create a natural appearance. Crowns are used in situations where tooth decay has destroyed most of the original tooth, or in cases of severe enamel erosion. Used for people who grind and clench their teeth, crowns mirror the original structure of teeth that have been compromised.

    Tooth Reshaping

    Tooth reshaping, or dental contouring is a cosmetic treatment that correct minor imperfections in your smile.  Slight overlapping or irregularly shaped teeth, tiny chips in teeth, or excessively pointed cuspids can often be fixed with this procedure.

    Gum Lifting

    Gum lifting is a minimally invasive procedure to reshape and raise the gums to expose more of the tooth surface.  Having a "gummy smile" makes teeth look short and can make patients self-conscious about their smiles.  Gum lifting is mostly done on the front teeth since these teeth are prominent and highly visible.

    Porcelain Fixed Bridge

     

    A porcelain fixed bridge replaces missing teeth by using the surrounding teeth as a foundation to create a literal "bridge" between the remaining teeth and the missing teeth.  A porcelain fixed bridge replicates the look and feel of natural teeth and is a permanent, fixed solution to removable dentures.
