Teeth Whitening

  • weddings
  • proms
  • high school reunions
  • senior pictures

Porcelain Veneers

Veneers are typically used to improve discoloration, worn, or chipped teeth; transforming a crooked, stained smile, into a straight, white one within two to three visits. There are a multitude of benefits you can receive when using porcelain veneers such as:

  • durability: no food considerations
  • stain resistance: no food/drink stains
  • versatile: conceals most cosmetic flaws (stains, chips, gaps, cracks, etc.)
  • comfortability: porcelain doesn’t harm the gum tissue
  • maintainability: does not require any special care when brushing

It is important to note that veneers require decently healthy teeth, and candidates should not have any of the following conditions:

  • deep tooth decay
  • unhealthy gums or gingivitis
  • numerous cracks in teeth
  • significant erosion of the tooth enamel
  • those who grind or clench their teeth

Invisalign/Braces

Invisalign braces are comparatively better than traditional braces since they lack the hassle of wires and brackets, and can be removed at anytime for any setting. Unlike traditional braces, invisalign offers many advantages such as:
a broader diet: the removable aligners mean that you can eat whatever you desire
discretion: no unattractive wires or brackets
fewer dental appointments: no inconvenient appointments to merely tighten the wires and brackets
healthier teeth: no challenges of brushing around the braces; flossing also became a whole lot easier!

Implants and bridges

An alternative to dentures, dental implants and dental bridges are permanent replacements for missing teeth. Depending on how well you take care of your ‘new’ teeth, the implants/bridges should last between 15-20 years. Patients with implants or bridges have the added benefit to:

  • avoid messy denture adhesives
  • decrease the risk for gum disease, oral cancer, and heart disease
  • enjoy their quality of life

Remember, your smile can significantly impact your personal relationships and professional careers.
