That means no second appointmet, no uncomfortable impressions, no temoraries, and above all, no second shot of novocaine. It's all done with advanced computer imaging of your teeth and a cermaic nearly identical to human enamel; meaning, we are re-enamelizing your teeth. CEREC is the most advanced dental technology available today. And it costs no more than your typical dental treatment. Call for an appointment today to see if CEREC is right for you!
Zoom! Advanced Power In-Office Teeth Whitening
Our office utilizes the Zoom! Advanced Power chairside whitening procedure as seen on the television show Extreme Makeover. The procedure for Zoom! Whitening is quick and painless. The first step is to isolate the teeth and protect the gums and lips. When this has been accomplished, the whitening gel is placed on the teeth. The gel is activated by a specially designed light that is directed at the teeth. The entire procedure takes about an hour. The results are usually between 8 and 10 shades whiter. In addition to the Zoom! Advanced Power in office treatment, every patient is provided with home whitening trays free of charge (that's a $500 value!) to maintain there new whiter smile. We guarantee to get your teeth their natural whitest.
Porcelain Veneers
Porcelain veneers are laminates made of a thin ceramic and are bonded to the front of a patient's teeth to create a new smile. Porcelain veneers are placed over the front of teeth that appear too small or large, slightly discolored, or simply are not cosmetically pleasing to the patient. For many patients, teeth may have chipped, become discolored, or are slightly crooked. For the majority of these patients, porcelain veneers can prove to be the perfect solution.
