Read along as they explain a few services that can have you shining this summer!<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n

Cosmetic Dental Bonding<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Do you have just 1-2 teeth that could use some sprucing up, perhaps to correct a minor chip or thin gap? Cosmetic dental bonding uses a composite resin applied to a tooth to artfully reshape it and make any blemishes disappear. Your dentist can sculpt your tooth to perfection and then harden the material with a curing light. The painless procedure only takes about one hour and is one of the most affordable cosmetic solutions.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Metal-Free Dental Crowns<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

If you have a tooth that needs repair, metal-free dental crowns can restore not only its strength but beauty as well. The crowns and fillings are custom-made from materials like zirconia, Emax, and porcelain. Your dentist uses it to create a strong and reliable restoration that\u2019s so lifelike no one will know you\u2019ve had dental work! Your results will look and feel virtually seamless.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Teeth Whitening<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Professional teeth whitening treatment is one of the most popular cosmetic procedures. If your teeth are stained or discolored due to years of drinking wine, coffee, or tea, your dentist can provide you with a set of custom-fitted trays and professional-strength bleaching gel. We have two K\u00f6R take-home solutions, one where you wear the trays for 30 minutes a day and another where you wear them for eight hours at night.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

We also have two in-office whitening options. One is K\u00f6R whitening which offers dramatic results and can be combined with a take-home kit. The other is Smile Perfected, where after just 20 minutes of exposure to a light-activated whitening solution, patients have experienced a multiple shade improvement.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Porcelain Veneers<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Do you have numerous cosmetic flaws? Porcelain veneers might be the ideal solution for you. The durable sheaths of porcelain are adhered to the front surfaces of teeth, concealing any imperfection from view. In only two office visits, veneers can fix:<\/p>\n\n\n\n
