Cosmetic Dentistry

In-office teeth whitening or chair-side whitening - With either a protective gel or a rubber shield in place to protect your gums, an American Dental Association (ADA)-approved bleaching agent is applied to the teeth, sometimes with a special light to enhance the action of the agent. Please note that whiteners may not correct all types of discoloration. In some cases, we may recommend other options, like at-home whitening products, porcelain veneers or dental bonding (see definitions below).

At-home teeth whitening products - Based on your needs, we will select from a variety of different whitening gels. Placed in a custom-fabricated mouthguard, the gel will whiten your teeth safely when used as little as one to two hours a day for as few as two weeks. We'll choose a plan that suits your lifestyle and delivers great results.

Veneers - Thin, custom-made shells are created out of tooth-colored ceramic and fitted to cover the front side of your teeth. After removing a small amount of tooth enamel, custom-made veneers are permanently bonded to your teeth. The result is a spectacular smile that can change tooth shape, color and even your outlook on life!

Bonding - We can mend chips, cracks, stains and gaps using this wonderful, proven technique. Special composite resin materials are blended in a color carefully chosen to match your tooth, applied to it, then shaped into just the right contours and hardened (bonded) in place. The result is an instant, noticeable change you'll love.

Tooth-colored fillings - In contrast to traditional silver fillings, we can create a filling that complements your tooth color and blends in to create a more natural looking smile. These fillings may be done in either one or two visits depending on the condition of your tooth and the type of filling required. You no longer need to see those dark silver or black spots on your teeth!
