a subject for details: Composite Veneers: These veneers are placed while in the dental chair in one visit without using a dental lab. The veneers are made of plastic (composite). These veneers are not as durable as porcelain veneers, but they can be color-matched as well as porcelain veneers and they are considerably more economical. Top Porcelain Veneers and Crowns: If you desire to improve the look of your teeth in a more enduring manner, porcelain veneers and crowns should be considered. Porcelain veneers are constructed from a very thin layer of porcelain that is bonded to the front of the tooth. Porcelain crowns are more extensive than veneers and are recommended when a substantial amount of enamel has been lost. Porcelain veneers and crowns are prepared at our dental office and constructed at a qualified dental laboratory. Top Bridges for Missing Teeth: Bridge treatment reverses the negative impact of missing teeth. Bridges not only enhance your smile, but they also restore the natural alignment of your bite, prevent shifting of opposing teeth, and discourage gum disease. The bridge is prepared at our office and constructed by a qualified dental laboratory. Top At Home Teeth Whitening: Teeth whitening can have a positive impact on personal appearance and improve confidence in your smile. At home teeth whitening requires two initial appointments. During the first appointment, our office will take impressions of your teeth to make the teeth whitening kit. The second appointment is a short appointment to deliver the teeth whitening kit, provide instructions, and record an initial shade of your teeth. Follow-up appointments will be necessary to monitor progress of the teeth whitening. Depending on desired results, the trays should be worn for 1 ½ hours every night during the first couple of weeks. Once the desired results have been reached, the whitening trays will need to be worn occasionally to sustain the desired maintenance level. Top Implants: Dental implants are a great option for patients who are missing natural teeth. Dental implants generally consist of two major components: an artificial tooth or teeth, and an underlying permanent anchor to which teeth are attached. Used successfully for several years, dental implants anchor prosthetic teeth into your jawbone to provide a secure fit. The process of placing dental implants requires an oral surgeon or periodontist to place the implants and your restorative dentist to place the prosthesis. Please contact our office if you have questions regarding dental implants. Top |
