Porcelain Veneers
Porcelain veneers are thin, custom-made restorations that cover the front surface of teeth to improve their shape, color, size, or overall appearance. They can be used to address several cosmetic concerns while creating a natural-looking result.
Teeth Whitening
Teeth naturally change color over time. Coffee, tea, certain foods, tobacco, and aging can all contribute to staining or discoloration.
Cosmetic Bonding
Dental bonding uses tooth-colored material to make conservative changes to the shape or appearance of a tooth. It can sometimes be used to repair small chips, close minor spaces, or improve irregular tooth contours.
Clear Aligner Therapy
Clear aligners can gradually move teeth using a series of removable trays. They may be an option for adults who would like to improve tooth alignment without traditional metal braces.
Common questions
What can porcelain veneers improve?
Veneers may be used to improve the appearance of teeth that are discolored, chipped, worn, unevenly shaped, or have small spaces between them. Whether veneers are appropriate depends on the condition of the teeth and your individual goals.
Will whitening work on every type of discoloration?
No. Some types of staining respond better to whitening than others. Existing crowns, veneers, and fillings also do not whiten the same way natural teeth do.
What can dental bonding fix?
Bonding may be appropriate for small chips, minor gaps, uneven edges, or certain cosmetic concerns involving tooth shape.
