What Is Cosmetic Dentistry?
The goal of cosmetic dentistry is to improve the appearance of the teeth that show when you smile and talk. In this sense, cosmetic dentistry is as much an art as it is a science.
If you’ve ever felt self-conscious about your smile, you owe it to yourself to schedule a consultation with our dentist.

Teeth Whitening
Aren’t getting the results you want with over-the-counter whitening strips and trays? Feeling self-conscious about stained teeth? Ask our teeth whitening dentist if you’re a candidate for professional teeth whitening. Professional teeth whitening can help whiten your teeth by several shades in just one appointment. We understand that your time is important, which is why we offer quick solutions for teeth whitening.
Veneers
Veneers are wafer-thin teeth covers made of porcelain. Our dentist may recommend if you have front teeth with slight chips, cracks, or stains. For example, we may recommend dental veneers for chipped tooth repair.
The entire veneers procedure takes two trips to our office. During your first appointment with us, we’ll remove a small amount of enamel from the fronts of your receiving teeth. Next, we’ll take digital dental impressions to send to the lab. When you return for your second appointment, your veneers will be ready. Our dentist will make sure your porcelain veneers are the right shape, fit, and color before bonding them to the fronts of your teeth.
Dental Crowns
Our dentist may recommend a dental crown to restore a tooth made fragile from a large filling, root canal, or other dental procedure. A dental crown (also called a “tooth cap” by our patients) covers the entire visible portion of your tooth above the gum line.
Dental Bridges
Like the name suggests, a dental bridge “bridges” the gap in your smile left by a missing tooth. If you have recently lost a tooth, our dentist may recommend a dental bridge so you can continue smiling with confidence. A dental bridge is essentially an artificial tooth anchored in place by crowns on adjacent teeth.
Full Mouth Reconstruction
If you have issues affecting your entire smile, our dentist may recommend a full mouth reconstruction. During your consultation, our dentist will sit down with you to discuss the best ways to restore your smile. For example, implant-supported dentures may be the best choice if you have several missing or badly decayed teeth. Call our dental office today to learn how a full mouth reconstruction can change your life.
