Our doctors are highly trained to perform smile makeover procedures. By using a combination of art and science we can transform a smile from the most unattractive to the most beautiful, natural smile possible. Patients come to our office from far distances to take advantage of the experience and artistic expertise offered by the dentists in our practice. The first step in a smile makeover is the examination appointment. Here we listen to the patient describe exactly what their goals are so that we can create a plan to realistically meet those specific goals. We use a variety of diagnostic aids to accomplish the ultimate smile makeover. We take photographs, x-rays and models so that we can communicate clearly with the dental laboratory to create the desired smile.
Smile Makeovers
The key to your perfect smile starts with the treatment planning stage. Photographs from all angles are taken and analyzed. X-rays are taken to ensure optimal dental health. Models of your mouth are taken and mock-ups of an ideal smile are created. Temporary restorations may be placed so you can see the results before your beautiful smile is permanently yours.
Tooth Whitening
If you''ve lost confidence in your smile because your teeth have darkened or are stained, we can help get it back. We use Zoom! the only system clinically proven to whiten teeth an average of 8 shades. It is safe and a significant improvement over other over-the-counter methods. It is fast, easy & effective.
The Gum Lift
A diode laser is used to eliminate the gummy smile - by sculpting away the excess tissue. With laser surgery there is no bleeding, no swelling, no sutures and little pain.
Metal Free Crowns & Bridges
The unsightly black line seen at the necks of porcelain to metal crowns & bridges is a thing of the past. Today''s technology eliminates the metal and the problem using custom laboratory procedures or the E4D technology to make beautiful all ceramic restorations. The procedure takes just 1-3 visits.
Tooth Colored Restorations
New generation composites and all ceramic restorations replace the old silver fillings. Chipped & damaged teeth are repaired using composite that is sculpted into the defect and bonded with light technology or all ceramic restorations which are bonded for maximum strength and durability. The result is the repair is indistinguishable from the tooth.
Porcelain Type Inlays & Onlays
When much of the tooth is missing due to breakdown and there is still some good tooth structure, a conservative approach is a custom made restoration using traditional laboratory procedures or the E4D technology. This restoration is bonded and it is difficult to tell which is natural tooth and which is the repair.
Porcelain Laminate Veneers
Nothing is more dramatic. Creating a smile can change your confidence and perhaps your destiny. A thin layer of tooth about as thick as your fingernail is removed and a porcelain veneer is bonded to the tooth to change the color, shape or length. The procedure takes only two visits with spectacular results.
Most smile makeovers consist of one or more of the following procedures:
- Teeth Whitening
- Porcelain Veneers
- Ceramic (porcelain) Crowns
- Cosmetic Gumlift
We will determine the most conservative technique to create the smile you have always dreamed of. We have an excellent record of making people happy about the appearance of their smile!
