Porcelain veneers are designed to enhance the shape, color, and proportion of your teeth, creating a natural, balanced smile.
Each veneer is carefully designed in collaboration with a skilled dental ceramist to complement your facial features and existing tooth structure. The result is a smile that feels natural, and never overdone.
In some cases, more conservative options such as no-prep veneers may be appropriate, allowing for beautiful results with little to no alteration of your natural teeth.
This approach allows for a more complete transformation while maintaining strength, and long-term stability.
Composite veneers are a hand-crafted approach to enhancing your smile, allowing for precise control of shape, contour, and detail.
This level of detail requires precision and advanced training in composite artistry. Using layering techniques, subtle tints, and varying levels of translucency, we are able create results that blend seamlessly with your existing teeth.
Advanced composite bonding techniques, such as Bioclear and injection molding, mold composite around the tooth to create smooth, seamless results while preserving your natural tooth structure.
These techniques are effective for refining shape, closing small gaps, and improving overall smile balance.
This can also be a strong option for patients who prefer to stage treatment over time, creating meaningful improvement now while planning for veneers or crowns in the future.
Professional teeth whitening brightens your smile by lifting discoloration and restoring a clean, natural radiance. We offer in-office Zoom! whitening for immediate results, as well as Opalescence Go home kits for a more gradual approach. Custom bleaching trays are also available for a more tailored and flexible at-home option.
Treatment is selected based on your needs to ensure a comfortable, effective result.
Esthetic crown lengthening improves the proportions of your smile by refining the position of your gumline and underlying bone. It is often recommended for uneven gums or when additional tooth structure needs to be revealed.
When appropriate, we use conservative techniques, such as intrasulcular crown lengthening, to achieve precise results while minimizing disruption to the surrounding tissue. A dental laser is often used to support faster healing and enhance post-operative comfort.
