Dental Veneers
When it comes to cosmetic dentistry, porcelain veneers are one of the easiest and least invasive ways to transform your smile. Veneers are thin partial crowns that are placed on the front surface of the teeth to enhance their aesthetic, hiding any noticeable flaws and help the teeth appear straight and even.
The shade of veneers can be adjusted to your tooth color or desired color and they are applied with minimal discomfort. Every set of dental veneers is custom-designed based on your needs, so you will design the shape and shades together.
How do dental veneers work?
Dental veneers are very thin shells like crowns that are applied on the front surface of a person’s teeth. Depending on the condition, the teeth may be prepped first by removing a small amount of enamel. Once installed, the veneers can cover up noticeable flaws and make adjustments to appearance and alignments.
There are two main types of dental veneers: porcelain veneers and composite veneers.
Composite veneers are done in-office using tooth-colored composite resin and applied directly to the teeth. These are often less expensive and quicker options to cover up aesthetic problems.
Porcelain veneers are custom, lab fabricated partial crowns. These often require slight preparation of the teeth to allow for adequate room and retention of the crown. Porcelain veneers generally last longer because of the stronger material, and can achieve more natural and desirable looks. Porcelain veneers are often used to fix larger cosmetic issues over a larger span of the arch.

Clear Aligner Orthodontics
Clear aligner orthodontic treatment is an effective and discreet orthodontic treatment option that is worn comfortably over your teeth to continuously adjust alignment and spacing.
Clear aligners provide patients with orthodontic treatment that does not involve brackets and wires. Invisalign clear braces utilize a series of clear acrylic aligners that are designed to gently guide your teeth into proper alignment. Rather than periodically tightening your braces, you simply switch your aligners from week 1 to week 2 and so forth as directed. Simply changing the aligners will allow adequate progress towards a straighter and symmetrical smile. The advanced technology used by Clear aligner orthodontic treatment can provide patients with a digital preview of how anticipated results will look like after the completion of treatment.
All clear aligners are custom-made using the data from your original teeth shape provided by the impression or digital scanning and the end result you hope to achieve. Once your aligners arrive, your appointment will involve placement of “attachments” that will hold on to the aligners while the forces are being produced to allow adequate movement of the teeth. You will be instructed to wear the aligners at least 22 hours except when eating, drinking and cleaning. First day after an aligner change will make you feel very tight due to movement forces being upon teeth, but as they begin to loosen up and teeth move into the proper position you will feel more comfortable.
Clear aligners are for most teens and adult patients requiring mild to moderate orthodontic corrections. This can involve crooked and misaligned teeth or teeth with noticeable spacing problems. Clear aligner orthodontic treatment can help patients with bite issues, but not all orthodontic issues can be adequately addressed with clear aligner treatment depending on the severity of the problem. More extensive problems may require additional treatments.
Teeth Whitening
Many people lose confidence in their smile due to the appearance of dulled or yellowed teeth. Discolored teeth can be associated with poor hygiene, but they are also associated with many other factors.
Professional teeth whitening treatments make it easier to achieve a bright smile, sometimes in just one treatment. The treatment involves use of hydrogen peroxide gel and then activating the el to release oxygen ions. These oxygen ions flood your teeth and break down interior and exterior staining to achieve white and bright look. This bleaching process is incredibly effective and safe.
