Teeth Whitening
In Office Boost (R) Whitening
Boost (R) is an effective whitening system that offers visible results in one sitting in our office. Each complete session consists of two twenty-minute applications which can either be done in the same sitting or at separate appointments.
Custom Bleaching Trays
Impressions are taken of your mouth and custom trays are fabricated to hold bleaching gel that you apply at home. Trays are discreet and can be worn for hours at a time depending on your comfort level.
We do offer a 'deluxe' package that combines the in office sessions and the custom trays at a discounted price!
Veneers and Partial Crowns
If your teeth are chipped, broken, gapped, or stained, porcelain veneers are a great way to change the color and shape of your teeth. A porcelain veneer is a thin covering for the tooth that gives natural color and bridges small gaps.
Veneers can be a great alternative to braces for slight orthodontic problems and provide a beautiful smile in a short amount of time.
Please be aware that veneers are permanent, as it is necessary to remove a small amount of enamel from your tooth to accommodate the veneer. Veneers have a long life and are resistant to permanent staining from coffee, smoking, and other discoloring elements.
If you grind and clench your teeth, or have habits that put extra stress on your teeth (i.e. ice chewing), we may recommend thicker, stronger, three-quarter or partial crowns. These crowns require us to remove slightly more enamel but provide a stronger restoration while giving the same great look as veneers.
Bonding
Bonding is the practice of covering the front surface of a tooth with a durable tooth colored filling to either change the shape or color of a tooth, or to rebuild a broken tooth. Over time, bonding will stain and chip, requiring periodic repairs. However, it is a great low-cost alternative to veneers, especially for children.
Gum Contouring (or Gingivectomy)
Are you self-conscious about short teeth or a "gummy" smile? The contours and shape of your gums can be quickly and safely changed to provide a more attractive appearance while protecting your teeth. Using a variety of techniques including lasers, we can precisely shape and contour the gums to your desired result.
