What Type of Cosmetic Dentistry is Right for You?

With our expertise, we can address any dental concerns you may have, from subtle adjustments to complex treatments, ensuring you achieve the confident smile you desire.
There are many different cosmetic dentistry options available
According to the American Academy of Cosmetic Dentistry, these are the top six most common cosmetic dentistry treatments, demonstrating our extensive experience, expertise, and authority in the field.
Crowns
Crowns cover a tooth, restoring it to its normal shape and appearance. They are a great choice when most of the original tooth decays or is gone, either by tooth decay, enamel erosion or a life event. Dental crowns have the longest life expectancy of all cosmetic dentistry options.
Bonding
Bonding is a cosmetic dentistry procedure in which a tooth-colored material is applied to a tooth and sculpted into place. This will give the appearance of a healthy tooth. Bonding can repair teeth that are decayed, damaged or stained.
Teeth whitening
Teeth whitening, also often called teeth bleaching, is a very common and popular cosmetic dentistry procedure designed to whiten teeth that have become stained or worn over the years. Your teeth may have discoloration due to food, drinks, or habits like smoking. This is a great option for those whose teeth are not as white as they would like.
Veneers
Veneers are a thin piece of porcelain that a dental lab can customize for each patient. We place them over your teeth with a dental adhesive to resolve a number of cosmetic issues. Veneers look very realistic and work on discolored, chipped, crooked teeth. They even work on teeth with a noticeable gap.
Bridges
A bridge replaces missing or damaged teeth. By hiding the gaps of missing teeth, they serve as a “bridge” to improve the appearance of your teeth and prevent other dental issues caused by missing teeth.
Dental Implants
Dental implants replace teeth after tooth loss. We insert a small titanium screw into the jawbone at the site of the missing tooth where we will then mount a replacement tooth. These implants are impossible to differentiate from surrounding natural teeth and, unlike a denture, are permanently secured into place.
Benefits of cosmetic dentistry
Embrace the power of a perfect smile with cosmetic dentistry. A radiant smile is more than just aesthetics—it’s a boost of confidence, an invitation to social interactions, and even a potential edge in professional endeavors. According to a study by the respected American Journal of Orthodontics and Dentofacial Orthopedics, those blessed with captivating smiles are often perceived as smarter and more employable. Beyond appearances, cosmetic dentistry brings along myriad health advantages, from bolstered oral hygiene to a harmonious bite and an uplifted sense of well-being.
