Your smile is your best professional asset. When you feel overwhelmed with appointments, meetings, and family activities, you may think that you don't have time for your own oral health. Unfortunately, neglecting your smile can lead to severe problems in the future, including tooth loss, misalignment, and stains.
Some patients experience so many issues with their natural teeth that they want to receive complete dentures. However, these are not the only solutions to correct your smile. This blog explains the various types of cosmetic dentistry procedures and how they can help improve your smile.
Teeth Whitening
We offer at-home professional whitening. We provide whitening gel and custom-made trays to fill with the solution. When you wear the trays for a specified period each day, you will see gradual but attractive results in a matter of weeks.
Crowns & Bridges
While crowns and bridges are considered restorative treatments, they can also improve the aesthetics of your smile. Crowns can cover discolored, broken, misshapen, or decayed teeth. Bridges can fill in the gaps between natural teeth and create a complete smile.
Veneers
Porcelain veneers are today's optimal choice for creating an attractive smile, but composite veneers can also create beautiful results. Veneers can cover chipped, stained, irregularly shaped, or gapped teeth. Getting veneers is a quick process that typically takes two appointments.
Invisalign®
This innovative system uses medical-grade plastic aligners to nudge teeth into optimal positions. You will not need to hide your smile with unsightly wires and brackets. Invisalign is so discreet that no one will know you are straightening your teeth unless you tell them.
Cosmetic Bonding
Bonding is an excellent way to repair chips and other minor imperfections. Your dentist can complete this procedure in one visit.
Implant-Supported Dentures
If your teeth are severely damaged, complete dentures may be a viable option. We provide implant-supported dentures which anchor to your jawbone and create a smile that looks and feels natural. The process takes a few months, so it is not a quick fix, but the results are worth it.

Can complete dentures improve the appearance of my smile?
