We
take pride in enhancing beautiful smiles by providing smile lifts
utilizing porcelain veneers.
We also provide whitening, bonding, crowns and most recently, procedures
using the newest restorative materials available. Our office incorporates
all state of the art equipment designed to make your visit safe
and enjoyable.
Veneers
are thin shells that are laid onto the teeth and bonded to the surface.
Although they can be made of different materials, porcelain is frequently
used because of its durability and realistic appearance. Veneers
are a more conservative alternative to crowns since they require
less removal of the tooth's original surface. With veneers in place,
patients can expect straighter, whiter, and more even looking teeth.
When
a tooth is cracked, decayed, or damaged, a crown may need to be
fitted onto the tooth. A crown is a permanent covering that
fits over the original tooth. Crowns can be made of porcelain, gold
and other metals, acrylic resin, or an amalgam (a mix) of these
materials. Porcelain crowns typically have the most realistic appearance,
although they tend to be less durable than other materials. Crowns
can whiten, reshape, and realign existing teeth, adding to a healthy
and vibrant smile.
The
goal of our practice is to help anyone have a healthier and brighter
smile. Every aspect of our practice is designed to deliver the
highest quality professional care with an ear to your personal need.
I love to teach hands-on dentistry. One of the common complaints
I hear all the time from doctors is "I gave my lab all this
information and they still did not get the case right."
What
separates our practice from all others, is our state-of-the-art
Ceramists and aesthetic laboratory technicians.
