Our Cosmetic Dentistry Procedures
Cosmetic dentistry is the practice of improving the appearance of the smile, mouth, and teeth. Even though cosmetic dentistry is largely elective, these treatments can provide a number of dental health benefits. Below, you’ll find an overview of our most popular cosmetic treatment options.
- Porcelain Veneers: Our dentists apply veneers to the front of your teeth using a special adhesive. A veneer can resolve a number of cosmetic issues, from cracked and damaged enamel to crooked teeth and large gaps.
- Teeth Whitening: Over time, it’s common for your teeth to become dull, stained, and discolored. Whitening treatment can make your teeth look brighter and whiter.
- Inlays and Onlays: When a tooth is decayed but still has some structure to it, these special fillings can be used to support the tooth. They not only restore the shape of the tooth, but strengthen it and prevent decay.
- Dental Bonding: Dental bonding can be used to repair damaged, discolored, or decayed teeth. The material used for composite bonding is tooth-colored and closely matches your natural enamel. It’s often used as a treatment option for chipped, worn, decayed, or cracked teeth.
- Dental Implants: A dental implant is used to replace a tooth that has been lost. A titanium screw is surgically placed in the jaw where the tooth is missing. This screw is then used as a support for a dental crown. Dental implants are permanent and cannot be distinguished from your natural teeth when installed by an experienced dentist.
- Invisalign: Invisalign braces are a great option for straightening your teeth discreetly. They are nearly invisible to others and can be easily removed for eating, drinking, and teeth brushing. They are also customized for each patient, so they are often more comfortable than traditional braces.
- Cosmetic Makeovers: A smile makeover can be used to fix multiple cosmetic issues at once. It’s useful for correcting things like misaligned teeth, chipped teeth, gaps, stained teeth, and more!
- Botox: Our dentists are Botox certified to help patients dealing with conditions affecting the facial muscles. These injections can effectively treat TMJ, teeth grinding, and teeth clenching.
