01
Common Cosmetic Procedures
- Teeth Whitening — A simple and popular technique that can often be done in one dental visit. While off-the-shelf products can whiten teeth, the results are never as brilliant or as long-lasting as a personalized treatment from a professional cosmetic dentist.
- Veneers — Veneers are a shell of a porcelain-like material that is affixed to the teeth. They work to fill in chips, providing more even teeth or filling in awkward gaps and spaces — a very durable, aesthetically pleasing technique that often requires no further touch-ups.
- Clear Aligners — Clear aligners provide a new alternative to traditional dental braces, using gentle, constant pressure to gradually move teeth into better alignment so you can enjoy straighter, evenly spaced teeth.
- Cosmetic Bonding — A plastic or resin is attached to your teeth to cover and smooth over chips, fill in gaps or awkward spacing, or seal cracks. Relatively fast and affordable compared to other processes.
02
Restorative Options
- Dental Implants — A specific technique that replaces an individual tooth. A titanium screw is affixed into the gums and bone, to which the implant itself is attached.
- Dental Crowns — A “cap” that is fixed to a single tooth — a solution for weakened teeth due to cavities, chipped teeth, or discoloration from illness or infection.
- Dental Bridges — A solution for a space where you have a tooth, followed by a missing tooth and then another tooth.
- Dentures — Full dentures replace both sets of teeth, upper and lower. Partial dentures suit people who still have some functioning teeth they wish to keep.
- Gum Lift — A surgical technique used to sculpt the way the gums appear, creating proportions that are more balanced and evening out irregularities for a more symmetrical smile.
