Dental Bonding
Teeth bonding is a procedure in which a tooth-colored resin material, durable and seamless, is applied and hardened with a special light, which finally bonds the material to the tooth to restore or improve a person’s smile. This treatment option can be considered to repair decayed, chipped or cracked teeth, improve appearance of discolored teeth, close spaces between teeth, protect a portion of the tooth’s root if it is exposed, among others.
Porcelain veneers
Dental veneers, also known as porcelain veneers, are wafer-thin, custom-made shells of tooth-colored materials designed to cover the front surface of teeth to improve their appearance. These shells are bonded to the front of the teeth, changing their color, shape, size, or length. Porcelain veneers resist stains better than other veneer materials. They also mimic the light-reflecting properties of natural teeth better, giving you the look of a natural smile.
Teeth whitening
Tooth whitening is a bleaching process widely used throughout the country and around the world. This procedure looks to lighten discoloration of enamel and dentin that is caused by day-to-day activities such as drinking coffee, tea, cola, red wine, or from smoking. The aging process can also stain and darken your teeth. The process of tooth whitening makes use of a hydrogen peroxide whitening gel, which is coupled with a special light to penetrate the teeth and break up the stains and discoloration.
Clear braces
While conventional braces use brackets connected by wires to encourage teeth to move, “clear braces” make use of aligners to correct the position of your teeth. Aligners are a series of tight-fitting custom-made mouthpieces that slip over the teeth. This treatment is great for patients who have mild or moderately crowded teeth, or have minor spacing problems. Once a dentist or orthodontist decides how to correct your bite, they'll make a plan for moving your teeth. If you get the clear aligners, you’ll be fitted for several versions that make slight adjustments to move your teeth over the treatment time. Aligners are made from a clear plastic or acrylic material and fit tightly over the teeth, but can be removed for eating, brushing, and flossing. You will receive a new aligner every few weeks to continue moving the teeth into the desired position.
Botox & Dermal fillers
Botox is a drug doctors have been using for years to treat wrinkles and facial creases. The way this product works is it blocks signals from the nerves to the muscles. The injected muscle can’t contract, which makes wrinkles relax and soften. Botox is most often used on forehead lines, crow’s feet 9ines around the eye), and frown lines. Getting Botox only takes a few minutes, as you will not need anesthesia. The provider uses a small needle to inject Botox into specific muscles with minor discomfort. After this, it generally takes 7 to 14 days for the treatment to take full effect
