 Porcelain Veneers

Porcelain veneers are a popular option for patients who have cosmetic problems with their teeth.

Veneers are thin porcelain shells that are affixed to the front of teeth to provide a clean, bright, healthy looking smile.

Porcelain Crowns

Porcelain crowns, made of a special, durable porcelain composite material, can effectively replicate both the appearance and the function of natural teeth, leaving you with the healthy, pristine smile you've always dreamed of.

When your tooth is too damaged to be repaired with a filling, a dental crown can replace the entire visible tooth surface with a natural, functional crown (also called a cap).

 

Dentures and Partials

Dentures are a popular option for tooth replacement, offering an affordable alternative to options such as dental implants and bridges.

Unlike other solutions to tooth loss, dentures are prostheses that can be removed for cleaning or other purposes.

Using advanced modern dental technologies and techniques, a skilled cosmetic dentist can now offer cosmetic dentures that are custom designed and custom fit to each patient, so you can be confident that your dentures will look and feel like natural, healthy teeth.

Dentures, available in full or partial sets, are available for patients who have experienced significant tooth loss. Dentures are removable tooth prostheses.

Full dentures are an option for people who are missing all of the teeth from their upper jaw, lower jaw, or both.

Partial dentures are an option for people who are missing only some of the teeth in their upper jaw, lower jaw, or both..

 

Tooth Whitening.

Tooth whitening procedures are more popular today than ever. With the variety of techniques and formulations available, we can offer a customized tooth whitening procedure for just about any patient.

Professional At Home Whitening

Professional at-home whitening systems consist of custom whitening trays and prescription whitening gel that we'll send home with you to whiten your teeth at home over the course of a few weeks.

Unlike over the counter whitening systems, these systems are designed just for you, eliminating much of the guesswork and discomfort of one-size-fits-all systems.

In Office Whitening

Another option for professional teeth whitening is an in-office, or chairside, tooth whitening procedure. This can be done in a single office visit. Your dentist will apply a special prescription-strength whitening solution to your teeth, then use a concentrated light source to activate the gel, whitening your teeth several shades in a single office visit. Please understand that this is a quick fix and not a final result. Most people would benefit from home bleaching too.
