Veneers
From small cracks to stubborn stains to misshapen teeth, there are many different kinds of aesthetic issues that you might find in your smile. Dental veneers give us a way to address many of these issues with just one treatment. With a thin shell made out of tooth-colored material, we can hide multiple imperfections simultaneously. Keep in mind that the number of veneers you get can vary; it largely depends on what your goals are.
Metal-Free Dental Restorations
While metal crowns have been around for a very long time, more recently dentists have discovered the advantages of making crowns out of tooth-colored materials such as porcelain and zirconia. With one of our personalized metal-free dental crowns, repairing your smile doesn’t have to come at the expense of your appearance; in fact, the average person may not even be able to tell that you’ve had dental work done at all. There’s no need to worry about durability, as oftentimes you may be able to keep a metal-free crown for as long as 15 years before you need to get a new one.
Direct Bonding
Veneers are often recommended for patients who would like to make many corrections at once. But if there are only one or two things bothering you about the appearance of your grin, direct bonding can be a faster – and more budget-friendly – option. Direct bonding allows us to hide all kinds of aesthetic issues with a bit of composite resin, which we will carefully mold onto your tooth. It is very versatile, and it can be an excellent choice if you’re looking for a “quick fix” to your cosmetic dental woes.
Teeth Whitening
Brushing on a daily basis can help you dramatically reduce your risk for cavities, but unfortunately, it usually isn’t enough to stop your teeth from becoming stained or discolored. If you’re bothered by a dull smile, one way to brighten it is with professional teeth whitening. If you choose an in-office whitening treatment, you won’t have to wait too long to enjoy the results; the process can often be completed in a single appointment that typically takes around an hour.
Gum Recontouring/Crown Lengthening
There normally shouldn’t be more than two millimeters of gum tissue visible when you show off your grin. If you have a smile that’s a bit too gummy for your tastes, you’re not necessarily stuck with it; you can simply have the excess tissue removed thanks to gum recontouring. We will examine your mouth carefully and take note of the spots where too much gum tissue is present so that we can figure out the best approach for creating a more properly balanced smile.
Virtual Smile Design
Once you start seriously considering having cosmetic dentistry done, you might start to feel somewhat nervous about committing to a given treatment. It is easier to make the decisions that are best for your grin when you have a realistic idea of what the results will be. As such, when we’re planning your smile transformation, we’ll use our virtual smile design software to show you what your teeth and gums will look like afterward, so you won’t have any reason to hesitate.
Smile Makeovers
When you’re telling our team about all the changes that you want to make to your smile, we may determine that a single procedure won’t be enough to get you the results you’re looking for. As such, we might recommend combining several services into a single smile makeover plan. This is an excellent option for patients who want to make extensive improvements, and we’ll always make sure that you’re fully informed of the costs involved before the process begins.
