Teeth
Whitening - Bleaching of the teeth
is often easily achieved through a variety of methods.
These include power bleaching in the dental office or
the use of customized home systems that can be used during
sleep. We also have a home system that can be used for
shortened periods during the day. The best method for
any individual depends on personal preference - all of
them are popular and completely safe if professionally
monitored by the dental office. Results are usually immediate
and significant. This is the most exciting, cost-effective,
and popular of the cosmetic techniques available today.
Selective
re-contouring - The
teeth can be gently reshaped to level them out, restore
proper contours, and blend in chips and irregularities.
Bonding
- This
involves bonding or sticking composite resins to the teeth
to improve their shape and color, and to fill gaps and
restore areas of decay. They are built up in increments
as the material is applied to the teeth. It is designed
for relatively small restorations and does require maintenance
and periodic replacement.
Veneers,
crowns, bridges - These
are restorations that are fabricated by a dental laboratory
and then cemented or bonded to the teeth. They are usually
made of porcelain and precious metals and if meticulously
made and maintained can be the most beautiful and long
lasting of all dental restorations.
Dental
implants - These
are now one of the most popular methods for replacing
missing teeth. They have been highly successful for many
years now, and usually prevent the grinding away of natural
teeth in order to replace missing teeth.
One
or more of these cosmetic techniques can be used in any
given situation.
