Cosmetic Dentistry

Chipped, stained, crooked, or missing teeth are nothing to smile about. Research shows having an attractive smile and healthy mouth can affect how people look, feel, even succeed in life.

Patients can experience dramatic differences in their overall wellbeing from even subtle dental changes. Thanks to advancements in oral health care, from the most-in-demand tooth whitening procedure to state-of-the-art bonding and veneers, we provide a variety of options for achieving a whiter, brighter, more even smile.

Tooth Whitening

Most people experience darkening of their teeth with time. Add to that the fact many of us are simply not born with very white teeth to begin with. Over a lifetime diet, smoking, coffee, even overall health, age and medications can stain or affect the color of your tooth enamel.

Statistics show that tooth whitening, which was already practiced in the late 19th Century, has become the most common cosmetic procedure today. According to the American Academy of Cosmetic Dentistry, the industry marked a 300% increase alone from 1996 to 2000. Most adults feel a whiter, brighter smile not only enhances their overall appearance and confidence, but can even influence their professional success.

Thanks to media and marketing, chances are you are already familiar with many of the over-the-counter products. But did you also know that they often don't bring great results or offer little to no control over side effects, the most common being increased tooth sensitivity and irritation of the gums and the soft tissues of the mouth?

When it comes to tooth whitening, and especially if you have sensitive teeth or gums, only a dentist can provide the most effective treatment for the brightest smile. Share your concerns with us. We provide safe, sensitive, sensible tooth whitening as part of our complete comprehensive dental care and will recommend a treatment that best meets your needs.

Come in for a visit and we'll discuss the whitening treatment that's right for you. We'd like to help you achieve the whitening that gives your teeth the youthful and attractive appearance you want, while returning the confidence back to your smile.

Porcelain Veneers

Permanent, pleasant, painless. There is nothing you won't like about the procedure and results you get with porcelain veneers. We use only the latest and finest veneers available, and with the proven expert to transform smiles with these perfectly natural looking porcelain veneers, we enable patients to leave after only two or three visits completely amazed with their new look and a whole new sense of how beautiful and attractive their teeth can be.

Patients come to us with very different reasons and degrees of dissatisfaction with their smiles. Some have decided they no longer want to live with the uneven, spaced, fanged, or discolored teeth they've disliked all their lives. Others need to replace old crowns and bridgework and don't want more of the same, choosing instead to turn a necessary procedure into an opportunity to attain their best smile ever. For others still it's the desire to bring the power of a truly beautiful and natural smile to their career, a relationship, or a life-changing occasion like a wedding, graduation, a performance, or an audition.

Our patients receive more than just a dramatically improved smile. As seen in the before and after pictures below, they enjoy and benefit from the solid, long-lasting, and health-driven results that only state-of-the-art veneer technology makes possible. And all of our procedures are perfomed with the utmost skill, patience, and absolute understanding of each patient's vision and needs.

Consider the advantages of porcelain veneers when applied by a fully trained D.M.D. and highly experienced dental professional:

• Unlike traditional veneers, little or no tooth reduction is necessary. Your natural teeth remain intact and strong.
• In almost all cases, no grinding, cutting or filling of teeth is required. Consequently, no anesthetics and no uncomfortable temporaries are needed while you wait. Once the procedure is completed, there is no post-placement discomfort or sensitivity. Your teeth will look natural and feel comfortable from the start. In addition, our veneers resist micro-leakage and micro-cracking.
• In many cases, veneers can be used in lieu of braces to change the shape and alignment of teeth, making them look straighter and more uniform.
• Porcelain veneers have unparalleled longevity. Clinical testing has proved that the procedure can last and looks great for over 20 years. Also, most veneers are completely reversible, due to the no reduction in sensitive tooth structure. And you will be able to continue eating all your favorite foods, including chewing gum and sticky foods like corn or candy.

Most important, our cosmetic procedures are more than just a quick and simple touch up. While you may already know a good dentist, there are only an experienced and dedicated few with the expertise to transform teeth from unattractive to stunning, while incorporating the highest standards of dental health care.

For over 20 years we have earned the trust and respect of our patients because we understand every patient's individual needs and expectations. Let us baby your adult teeth. Everything else is just next-best.
