Bleaching
Dental bleaching can be used to correct tooth discoloration. Discolorations can
be caused by staining, aging, or chemical damage to teeth. Using the latest in
bleaching technology, we can offer a safe method for creating a beautiful
"brilliant" smile. In cases of extreme tooth discoloration, crowns or
veneers may be the only choice, but because of the low cost of bleaching
treatments, bleaching is nearly always worth a try.
Dental Implants
Dental implants are designed to provide a foundation for replacement teeth that
look, feel and function like natural teeth. The person who has lost teeth
regains the ability to eat virtually anything and can smile with confidence,
knowing that teeth appear natural and that facial contours will be preserved.
The implants are tiny titanium posts which are placed into the jawbone where
teeth are missing. The bone bonds with the titanium, creating a strong
foundation for artificial teeth. In addition, implants can help preserve facial
structure, preventing the bone deterioration which occurs when teeth are
missing.
Crowns
We replace existing crowns and fillings with restorations that look and feel
like your natural teeth. Where damage to a person's teeth is extreme, and
apparently beyond repair, we can use porcelain or porcelain "fused on
gold" crowns to make the smile appear "as new". This is an
extremely reliable technique for repairing the most severe of dental problems,
even permanently replacing missing teeth to offer a complete smile and a
functional bite. These treatments are used for a long lasting correction
of major dental problems.
 Veneers
Porcelain veneers are thin shells of ceramic that bond directly to the front
surfaces of the teeth. They are an ideal choice for improving your smile and
have become increasingly popular due to their simplicity and versatility.
Placing custom veneers requires a high degree of technical skill as well as
attention to cosmetic detail. We design each case individually to match and
enhance the characteristics of each patient's smile.
