Bonding
Cosmetic bonding is an affordable way to reshape and repair your smile using composite resin. It’s perfect for fixing chipped, uneven, or discolored teeth without anesthesia. The procedure can be completed in one visit and lasts for many years, though it may need replacement over time. Common uses include closing gaps, treating cavities, lengthening teeth, and restoring discoloration. The process involves applying the resin, shaping it, and hardening it with a light for a smooth, natural finish.
LUMINEERS®
LUMINEERS® are ultra-thin porcelain veneers that improve the appearance of teeth without surgery or discomfort. They correct gaps, misalignment, stains, and misshapen teeth for a natural-looking, beautiful smile. The procedure is pain-free, with no drilling or injections required, and LUMINEERS® can last over 20 years. The process involves two visits: taking impressions and bonding custom LUMINEERS® to your teeth. This reversible treatment gives you a flawless, pearly-white smile.
Porcelain Crowns
A crown (or cap) restores a tooth’s shape and size, protecting it from further damage. Porcelain crowns are known for their natural look and durability. They are used for broken, decayed, or cosmetically enhanced teeth. The procedure involves two visits: the first for impressions and a temporary crown, and the second to place the permanent crown and adjust the bite. With proper care, crowns can last, though they may need replacement over time.
Porcelain Veneers
Veneers are custom-made porcelain shells designed to enhance the appearance of your teeth. They effectively address issues like crookedness, discoloration, chips, and unevenness, providing you with a stunning, long-lasting smile.
The veneer procedure typically involves two visits: the first for shaping your teeth and taking impressions, and the second for bonding the veneers in place. While veneers are durable, they may need replacement over time. With proper care, you can maximize their lifespan.
Teeth Whitening
Teeth whitening is an effective treatment that lightens natural tooth enamel to enhance your smile. The most popular method involves custom trays filled with a whitening solution, worn for a few weeks.
While the results are not permanent, touch-ups may be necessary, especially for individuals who smoke or consume staining beverages. The process requires two visits: one for impressions and another for tray fitting. Regular dental check-ups will help you maintain a bright, healthy smile.
