Porcelain Veneers Veneers
are a thin semi-translucent laminate (covering) permanently bonded to
your teeth. While they're not suitable for every patient, veneers are
the most aesthetic alternative for a variety of dental conditions
involving the front teeth, including: • Diastemas (spaces between teeth) • Broken, crooked or chipped teeth • Unsightly, stained, or washed-out fillings • Permanently stained or discolored teeth that can't be bleached
Porcelain Crowns & Bridges: Crowns
(caps) are dental restorations that are placed over a tooth when
conservative restorations are insufficient to restore form and
function. Crowns and bridges can be made entirely of porcelain or a
porcelain metal combination to provide optimal aesthetics. A bridge
serves to replace a missing tooth or teeth. One type of bridge consists
of crowns placed on either side of the missing tooth to connect the
replacement tooth or teeth to them. Bridges can also be supported by
dental implants. Crown and bridges can be made entirely of porcelain to
provide optimal aesthetics.
Bonded Tooth Colored Fillings: Bonding
involves the direct application of tooth-colored paste and is typically
used to create a more attractive smile or restore broken or decayed
teeth. Tooth-colored fillings are an alternative or to traditional
silver mercury metal fillings and fall into two categories: direct and
indirect. Direct restorations is composite resin applied in one
appointment. Indirect restorations (inlays or onlays) are made of
porcelain fabricated by a dental laboratory. These restorations take
two appointments and provide a tremendous advantage over metal fillings
which cause teeth to eventually fracture or decay due to the expansion
of the metal within the tooth (non-metal fillings expand similarly to
the natural tooth). In addition, the non-metal fillings are chemically
sealed (bonded) to the tooth, which provide a seal against decay that
is not possible with metal fillings. Day White - Take Home Whitening An advanced whitening chemistry which will quickly, safely, and effectively whiten your smile. Night White 22% - Take Home Whitening Night
