Cosmetic Procedures

Even a subtle change in your smile can make a dramatic difference in the way you look and feel. Your smile communicates a lot about how you feel about yourself. Even a minor flaw in your smile can keep you from feeling the best about the way you look. In the past, we had few options to improve teeth that were chipped, stained or crooked. However, now a wide range of cosmetic dental techniques can benefit almost any smile. These procedures may include Composite Bonding, Crowns and Bridges, Veneers, Tooth Colored fillings, Whitening and Orthodontics.

Cosmetic Dentistry is a blend of art and science. With a focus on esthetic results and using a variety of the latest techniques and materials, we can enhance your smile to give it a more pleasing appearance.

Composite Bonding

A composite BONDING is used when a small to moderate amount of tooth structure needs replacing or repair. This is primarily done on the anterior teeth.

Crowns and Bridge

A Crown is a restoration that covers, or caps a tooth to restore it to its normal shape and size. Crowns are placed for a variety of reasons. Crowns can restore teeth when there isn't enough tooth structure remaining to provide support for large fillings. Crowns are used attach bridges and cover dental implants, also they are used to cover badly shaped or discolored teeth and protect weak teeth from fracturing. A Bridge is a combination of at least two crowns and a false tooth to bridge the space between two teeth and a missing tooth.

Veneers

A porcelain veneer is indicated when a portion of the front surface of a tooth needs a "face lift." Veneers are attached directly to the existing prepared tooth structure. If properly cared for Veneers can last for years. Veneers can be considered a cosmetic alternative for a variety of reasons:

  • Closing spaces between teeth
  • Restoring damaged, broken or chipped teeth
  • Covering dark or unsightly stains
  • Correcting uneven and some crooked teeth
  • Beautiful smiles can be created with the placement of Veneers. A beautiful healthy smile can go a long way to improve a persons self confidence in both their personal and professional life.

Resins

 

Dental materials and techniques have greatly advanced over the years and we are now able to create more pleasing and natural-looking smiles. One of these advancements is composite or resin fillings. These types of fillings are a mixture of glass or quartz filler in a resin medium that produces a tooth-colored filling. The advantage to this type of restoration is that less tooth structure is removed when the dentist prepares the tooth also the esthetic look of the tooth is much more pleasing.

Amalgam fillings have been around for over a century and are still used in some cases. While questions have arisen about the safety of dental amalgam because of its mercury content, the major U.S. and international scientific and health bodies have are satisfied that dental amalgam is a safe, reliable and effective restorative material.
