Cosmetic dentistry

This can be anything done to correct imperfections in the appearance of the mouth. Anyone who is unhappy with their smile can have it fixed. The upper teeth show, usually, only when smiling, while the lower teeth remain hidden. This is reversed when talking, with the upper teeth remaining hidden while the lower teeth show. The color, alignment, spacing as well as regularity of the teeth are the characteristics that give the overall appearance. Any of these can be repaired to give a stunning look to the mouth.

We offer a wide variety of cosmetic options. Some of these options are whitening, smile design, recontouring of the shape of the teeth, bonding, and all ceramic/porcelain crowns.

Invisalign is a treatment that straightens teeth without the use of metal braces. This is done through the process of creating a series of custom-made clear aligners that cover your teeth and gently pull the teeth into the proper position over time.

This is the procedure of making teeth whiter, and therefore more attractive. Our office uses several methods: Custom bleaching trays for at-home use and prescription strength pre-formed whitening trays.  

Trays with gel are recommended afterward for maximum whitening and maintenance.  

The tray method involves having impressions taken from which laboratory fabricated custom vinyl trays are made. A carbamide peroxide gel is placed in these trays and the trays with gel are worn for between 30 minutes and overnight. The entire process takes 3-4 weeks of daily use. Different strengths of gel may be used, however the higher the strength the greater the likelihood of reactions or tooth sensitivity. The tray method is recommended for badly stained teeth, such as tetracycline staining, and it may take several months of use to see significant color improvement. For convenience and maintenance of whitened teeth the trays may be used every several months.
