Our cosmetic dentists are experts at reshaping your teeth to improve the appearance of your smile. Here are some of our cosmetic dentistry services.
Dental Implants
Dental implants are artificial tooth root replacements that can be used to anchor dentures and secure crowns, bridges or full implant-supported dentures. They are made of titanium, which is a biocompatible material that your body accepts as part of itself. Dental implants are designed to last for years or even decades with proper care. Our team will discuss the different types of dental implants available and help you determine if this is an appropriate solution for you.
Porcelain Crowns
Porcelain crowns are an excellent choice for restoring or repairing a tooth. A crown can be used to cover and protect a weak or broken tooth, or it can be used to improve the appearance of your smile. We use porcelain because it’s virtually indestructible and will last for years with proper care. Crowns are custom-made for each patient, so they fit perfectly and look natural on your teeth.
Dental Veneers
Dental veneers are thin porcelain shells that are bonded to the front of your teeth. They can be used to improve the color, shape and length of your teeth without any pain or discomfort. The process generally takes about two visits – one for the initial impressions and one for applying the veneers. Our cosmetic dentists will take a mold of your teeth and send it to our lab where they will create the custom fit veneers. When you come in for your second visit, we will apply the veneers using special cement that allows us to adjust them if necessary.
Teeth Whitening
Teeth whitening is one of the most popular cosmetic dentistry procedures. Teeth whitening is a safe and effective way to brighten your smile. Our cosmetic dentists use in-office teeth whitening treatments that are custom-made for each individual patient. If you want whiter teeth but don’t want to undergo a bleaching treatment, you can also use at-home products, which we will instruct you on how to use.
Porcelain Inlays
Porcelain inlays are a popular cosmetic dentistry procedure that can improve the appearance and function of your teeth. Porcelain inlays are used to fill gaps between teeth, cover chips or cracks in enamel, and even repair broken crowns or bridges. Our cosmetic dentists will discuss with you the best options for dental restorations using porcelain inlays.
Porcelain Onlays (Overlays)
Porcelain onlays are another cosmetic dentistry procedure used to repair damaged teeth and improve the appearance of your smile. Porcelain onlays are made from porcelain or composite materials and cover the front of one or more teeth. The process begins with a dentist taking an impression of your mouth, which will be used to create a model of your teeth. The dentist will then use that model to fabricate the porcelain onlay, which will be bonded to your tooth using dental cement. Porcelain onlays can be used as a standalone procedure or in conjunction with other cosmetic dentistry treatments like veneers or crowns.
Procera Crowns
Procera crowns are a type of crown that can be used to restore the appearance and function of your teeth. A crown is placed over the entire visible portion of your tooth, including the biting surface and any exposed roots. The dentist will use porcelain or composite materials to craft your new crown, then place it in your mouth using dental cement. Procera crowns are generally considered more durable than other types of restorations because they are bonded directly onto your tooth rather than using an adhesive like bonding materials do.
Remember, your smile speaks before you even say a word!
