Cosmetic Dentistry
A smile can be the most eye-catching feature of your face. Even
a subtle change can make a big difference in the way you look and
feel. New techniques like bleaching,
bonding, enamel
shaping, and white fillings allow
us to create a beautiful smile with, at times, only minimal changes
to existing teeth.

 Bleaching
(Whitening) is a very popular procedure in cosmetic dentistry.
It is a relatively easy and effective technique for obtaining a
dazzling, whiter smile, at home, in a matter of days.
| Bonding
is a procedure where tooth-colored composite resin material
is placed to "fill in the blanks." One of the most
frequent uses of the bonding technique is to fill in a gap between
front teeth. |

 Enamel
Shaping (Contouring) is the process of shaping natural teeth to improve
their appearance. Shaping can be used to correct minor cases of crowded or overlapping
teeth, smooth rough edges, or make small adjustments to the shape of a tooth.
 Crowns
are sometimes used for cosmetic correction. A tooth with a bad fracture
or a large filling that is breaking down, or has
decay around it, may be a candidate for a crown.
 White
fillings replace silver or gold fillings with a more natural
looking tooth-colored material. Since teeth are translucent, dark
fillings cause the whole tooth to appear darker when viewed from
the side. Replacing older dark fillings with white fillings will
keep your smile glowing!
