Made from stain-resistant porcelain that reflects light similarly to natural enamel, veneers are thin shells that hide the front surface of your teeth. By placing an appropriate number of veneers (whether it’s just one or enough for all the teeth visible when you smile), we can hide discoloration, worn teeth, cracks, chips, misalignment, irregularly shaped teeth, and certain gaps with just a single treatment. Don’t worry about the restorations irritating your mouth; gum tissue tolerates porcelain very well.
Why add unsightly metal to your smile when a ceramic crown can do the same job? Whether it’s necessary to repair a tooth or is being placed purely to correct an aesthetic issue, a well-made metal-free crown can be the perfect way to enhance a damaged smile. Thanks to the milling machines in our in-house dental lab, we can create lifelike crowns in just one day so you aren’t left waiting for your new and improved grin.
Bonding is one of the simplest cosmetic procedures. Like veneers, it can hide various flaws (including stains and dental damage), but it’s generally recommended for smaller changes and doesn’t require permanent alterations to the tooth’s structure. The material used for bonding is composite resin – the same durable, tooth-colored substance used for fillings. It can be shaded to match the color of your tooth, and we’ll shape and polish it so that it matches the contour and sheen of the rest of your smile.
Are you nervous about having your photo taken at an upcoming event? You can get your smile ready for the camera with a single professional whitening treatment.
