- Do you have chipped or cracked teeth?
Chipped or cracked teeth don’t have to be permanent fixtures in your smile. Through the use of dental veneers (both porcelain veneers and composite or resin veneers), you can effectively conceal imperfections in your teeth.Another option for concealing teeth imperfections is through bonding. Bonding is one of the easiest and least costly options for improving a smile. The composite resin used in bonding is color matched to your surrounding teeth and then formed on and around the teeth. This solution provides a virtually new smile in a short amount of time.
- Are your teeth stained or discolored?
Tooth stains often appear as a result of what you eat and drink – and if you smoke. Even with regular brushing and flossing, your teeth can still become discolored. With cosmetic teeth whitening, stains can many times be completely erased. Even if you have tried at-home teeth whitening and have not been thrilled with the results, cosmetic teeth whitening offers a stronger solution and typically better and quicker results.Other options for improving heavily stained or discolored teeth, including teeth that cosmetic teeth whitening have not been able to improve, are dental veneers and bonding. Through the use of composite and porcelain veneers, and the durable resin used in bonding, stains can be completely concealed. The resulting smile is a brighter, whiter, all-new smile.
- Do you have uneven teeth, or undesirable gaps between your teeth?
Resolving uneven teeth or gaps in between teeth is another great opportunity for dental veneers and bonding. These procedures utilize durable materials that essentially even out teeth and fill in the gaps between teeth. The result? A truly beautiful smile.
- Are you missing teeth?
If you are missing one or more teeth, you know how that gap affects your smile. It almost always becomes the one thing people notice when you smile. But you can do something about these unfortunate gaps. Through the use of dental implants and crowns, you can fill in those gaps. A rugged titanium post is implanted in the space, upon which a crown is secured, crafted to look just like your surrounding teeth. The result is a more complete smile through the use of a rugged, long-lasting replacement tooth that fills the void where a gap once was.
