LOOKING AND FEELING GOOD WHEN YOUR TEETH AND GUMS ARE HEALTHY

You lead with your smile. People make subconscious decisions on the way you look. May not be right but it is true especially when seeing your upper anterior teeth. Over time teeth can discolor, wear down, break or move. Dentistry today has many options to restore your teeth to a more pleasing position, color and shape. The least invasive is to just whiten your teeth using disposable trays that contain a bleaching gel. We offer trays that you wear for ten minutes per night for three to four nights and your teeth will lighten. Not toilet bowl white but whiter than they were. We find most patients are happy with the result and the cost at 125 dollars is not a stretch. If your tooth has chips or missing pieces sometimes we can restore them with a simple bonding procedure. Here composite or white filling material is applied to restore your teeth and matched to the color of your teeth. If decay or trauma has broken your tooth we can do a porcelain crown to restore it. With this procedure we can completely reshape your tooth and restore it to the color you desire.

If the tooth is healthy with no breakage and no decay but you’re just not happy with the look we can do porcelain veneers. Here a sliver of porcelain is bonded to the front surface of your tooth giving you the shape and color you desire. If your teeth are out of alignment we can move them into a more pleasing position through orthodontics. Today using clear trays we can accomplish this treatment without others knowing you are actually undergoing it. No longer do you need to show metal wires and brackets when you smile. Your smile is a reflection of your overall health. Here at the practice we have been doing these procedures for decades. In fact we have gone through all the iterations of these procedures as they have been released. Let us know if you need more information about anything mentioned here next time you visit with us.
