Dental Veneers Veneers are thin, artificial tooth
shells made from porcelain or tooth colored resin, custom fitted
to bond to the front of your existing teeth. Veneers are safe
and relatively simple to apply, and they can be used to correct
stained, chipped, cracked, misaligned, and discolored teeth. In
some cases, veneers can even reduce jaw pain and wear and tear
by aligning an uneven bite.
Crowns and Bridges
Teeth that are badly weakened by decay or trauma may require
more treatment than basic fillings. Chipped, cracked, weakened,
or decaying teeth can be strengthened with crowns, which cover
(cap) the entire tooth. Fixed bridges are also a popular choice
for patients with missing teeth because they are the same size,
shape, and color as natural teeth.
Now made with porcelain or other tooth colored resin, crowns
or bridges can be as pleasing aesthetically as they are
functionally.
Tooth-Colored Fillings
The same material used to create porcelain veneers, crowns,
and bridges is also being utilized for more common treatments
like cavity fillings. Old silver amalgam fillings tended to leak
and expand outward as they aged, often causing teeth to crack.
Of course, silver fillings are also unsightly. White fillings
solve all these problems.
White composite resin restorations are bonded tightly to
teeth; there is no leakage and no expansion. And because
tooth-colored fillings are made from materials similar in
texture and color to natural teeth, teeth with white fillings
are virtually indistinguishable from surrounding teeth.
Dental Implants
For patients who have missing teeth, dental implants are the
best treatment available. Dental implants perform just like
natural teeth.
If you have healthy gums and jaws, a qualified oral surgeon
can implant an anchoring device into your jaw. Once your gums
have grown around the implant, a strong, artificial tooth
designed to match your existing teeth can be attached to the
anchor. The replacement tooth will look and function just like a
natural tooth.
Invisalign(r)
Invisalign(r) is an ingenious new system designed to
straighten teeth discreetly, with inconspicuous aligners rather
than metal brackets.
The Invisalign(r) system uses clear, custom-made aligners to
gradually move teeth into proper alignment. Patients progress to
a new aligner every few weeks. The aligners are clear and thin,
and also removable, making eating, drinking, and brushing much
simpler.
Zoom!™ Teeth Whitening
Zoom!™ teeth whitening is the most effective tooth whitening
treatment available today. The Zoom!™ system whitens teeth using
a special whitening light and a hydrogen peroxide-based
bleaching gel. During treatment, the Zoom!™ Whitening Gel is
applied to the teeth and then heated with the Zoom!™ Whitening
Lamp. The heat activates the gel, which penetrates the teeth's
surface to lift out stains. Zoom!™ can whiten teeth by six to
ten shades in just one office visit.
