Teeth Whitening:
A whiter brighter smile that those
glorified toothpastes purchased at
the local retail store just can’t give you. Some of these whitening toothpastes use chemicals
and abrasives to brighten teeth. None are approved by the American Dental Association.
Some contain agents that, combined with vigorous brushing, can wear the enamel right off
your teeth.
Whitening can be done in the comfort of your own home using a custom made mouthguard.
A prescription gel is placed in the trays which can be worn at night for two-five nights or up
to two hours a day for approximately two weeks. You see immediate results from
discoloration caused by food, tobacco aging and other sources. It’s safe and effective. This
procedure is considered cosmetic and not covered by your dental insurance.

Porcelain Veneers:
Porcelain Veneers are ultra-thin shells of ceramic material which are bonded to the front
teeth. This is an ideal choice for improving the appearance of your front teeth. They provide
a much more conservative approach to changing a tooth’s color, size, or shape. Porcelain
veneers can mask undesirable defects, such as teeth stained by tetracycline, teeth that have
been injured or darkened as the result of a root canal procedure. Unsightly discolored fillings
in the front teeth can be covered or gaps filled in between teeth. Porcelain veneers can last
for many years when properly performed. Spend time in the decision-making and planning
of your smile. This procedure can greatly enhance your smile and heighten inner satisfaction
and self-esteem.
