Cosmetic Dentistry

While your health is our priority, we also understand the benefits of a beautiful, confident smile.

If you are unhappy with the appearance of your teeth, modern cosmetic dentistry offers the solution you need. When you discuss your aesthetic goals with your cosmetic dentist, we can design a comprehensive treatment plan just for you!

Teeth Whitening

Whitening your teeth is one of the most straightforward and cost-effective smile improvements. Drugstore whitening kits may be cheap and easy to find, but nothing beats a professional teeth whitening service supervised by your cosmetic dentist.

Porcelain Veneers

When you see a movie star with perfect teeth, there's a good chance that porcelain veneers were used to craft that smile!

A veneer is a super-thin shell of porcelain or composite resin bonded to the front surface of your tooth. We commonly use veneers to correct cosmetic problems by improving a tooth's color, shape, length, or size. You can get one veneer or multiple, depending on your aesthetic goals.

Frequently Asked Questions

We offer a range of cosmetic dentistry services such as veneers, porcelain crowns, bonding using tooth-colored composite, and even orthodontic treatments like Invisalign. All our dentistry is done with an eye toward aesthetics. We know that it's important that your teeth are both healthy and attractive. If you'd like to find out which of our services can help you meet your goals, call our office to schedule your consultation.

Cosmetic Fillings

If you need a filling, we can use one of two popular materials: silver amalgam or tooth-colored composite resin. Both have proven to be safe and effective.

The difference is the cosmetic result.

Amalgam is a traditional metal filling that creates a visible silver or gray spot against the white of your tooth; composite resin fillings, on the other hand, match your natural tooth shade for a seamless, invisible repair.

Another use for composite resin is dental bonding. Our cosmetic dentist applies the material while it's in a putty-like state and shapes it to perfectly match the shape and contours of your tooth. After the material is hardened, we polish it for a flawless appearance.

Panoramic X-Rays

Individual x-rays are beneficial for identifying decay, infection, and many other dental conditions. Having a full-picture view is often helpful, and that’s where panoramic x-rays come in handy. Panoramic x-rays take a full-picture view of the teeth, bone, jaw joints, and other biological landmarks. These types of x-rays are helpful in planning oral surgeries, such as extractions and dental implant placement, as well as identifying tumors, cysts, and jaw joint problems.
