Invisalign |
The invisible way to straighten your teeth:
Introducing Invisalign:
The invisible way to straighten your teeth, without braces.
Invisalign can give you the beautiful straight teeth you've always wanted. It works through a series of invisible, removable, and comfortable aligners that no one can tell you're wearing. So, you can smile during your treatment as well as after.
What is Invisalign?
Invisalign is the invisible way to straighten your teeth without traditional metal braces.
Invisalign uses a series of clear removable aligners to straighten your teeth
without metal wires or brackets.
Invisalign has been proven effective in clinical research and in orthodontic
practices nationwide.
How it Works:
You wear each set of aligners for about 2 weeks, removing them only
to eat, drink, brush and floss.
As you replace each aligner with the next in the series, your teeth will move -
little by little, week by week - until they have straightened to the final
position.
You'll visit us about once every 4 weeks to ensure that your treatment is
progressing as planned.
Total treatment time averages 9-15 months and the average number of
aligners worn during treatment is between 18 and 30.
This will vary from case to case.

Which one of us is wearing Invisalign?
WE BOTH ARE!

Tooth Colored Fillings |
As you can see, tooth-colored fillings can substantially improve the beauty of your teeth. The photo also includes the example of closing a gap.
|
Porcelain Crowns |
Porcelain crowns can make heavily silvered teeth look like a natural tooth to reflect light with a natural healthy glow.
|
Laminate Veneers |
Today we have exciting new biomaterials that can give your smile a lift without invasive treatments.
A veneer is a thin shell of porcelain, fabricated in the dental laboratory, that can close spaces, lengthen, shorten, straighten teeth, or disguise discolored teeth. A "smile lift" may be achieved in less than two weeks.
Ultra-thin porcelain veneers can correct chipped, weakened, or discolored teeth. No more yellow. No more gaps or embarrassing chips. Veneers can return real structural integrity to damaged teeth, while leaving them looking as good as, or possibly better than the originals.
,
Veneers are custom made to fit over your natural teeth, with a finish more translucent to blend in with surrounding teeth. So, people won't notice your tooth, they'll simply see your beautiful, natural smile.

Beautiful Dentures |
With so many advances in modern dentistry, fewer people need to wear full dentures. If you have older dentures or think you may need dentures, you're in luck. Denture technology has never been better.
As people age, dentures can cause people to look older than they really are and can cause pain when chewing. We can replace worn out dentures with custom made dentures that blend with your skin, hair and even eye color. Your dentures will look as natural as possible.
Before going to the plastic surgeon, get a "face lift" with comfortable, attractive dentures. |
Dental Implants |
Dental implants are a revolutionary way to replace missing teeth. A titanium screw is placed into the jaw bone; this replicates the missing dental root.
After some months the implant is assessed for proper bone integration. Once this has occurred, a permanent crown will be constructed and placed on the implant.
An increasingly common strategy to preserve bone and reduce treatment time includes the placement of a dental implant into a recent extraction site. This can cut months off the treatment time. Ask us which is best for you. |
Composite Resin Inlays, Onlays, Crowns |
Metal-free dentistry offers exciting alternatives to silver mercury fillings. Like porcelain, composite resin restorations offer minimal tooth reduction, biocompatibility with periodontal tissues, and virtually undetectable aesthetics. The bonus is wear resistance similar to enamel, making the biting surface kind to opposing natural teeth.
Indirect restorations (fillings) are fabricated by a dental laboratory technician, and later fixed to the teeth by adhesion (bonding) procedures. Temporary restorations protect the teeth between appointments.
|
Laboratory Processed Metal-Free Bridges |
Utilizing the attributes of metal free adhesion dental technology, a missing tooth be replaced with minimum reduction of the supporting teeth, without a surgical implant, utilizing porcelain or composite resin materials.

Chairside Composite Resin Restorations (fillings) |
Composite resin restorations offer an array of benefits over traditional silver mercury fillings. Since the filling material actually adheres to tooth structure, the preparation procedures are less invasive. The dentist removes only the diseased portion of the tooth, leaving healthy tooth structure intact. The adhesion (bonding) process strengthens the tooth with resilient, long-lasting, natural looking restorations.
Over time, amalgam (silver fillings) tend to corrode, allowing a gap at the interface of the filling and tooth. Fillings may be replaced with new composite resins without irritation of sensitive periodontal (gum) tissue, and minimal loss of tooth structure. The natural aesthetic is a bonus.

Flowable Composite Resins and Sealants |
Dental Sealants
Dental tooth decay is more prevalent on the biting surfaces of the back teeth. While proper oral hygiene is essential to prevent decay, at times the anatomy of the tooth is such that it is impossible to clean properly. Dental caries is caused by plaque, a sticky film of bacteria that occurs on all teeth. When food is eaten these bacteria eat the food stuck on the tooth surface and produce acid which destroys the tooth. While good oral hygiene does not let food remain in the mouth, at times it is impossible to clean the pits, fissures, and grooves of the teeth. These areas can be protected by the application of dental sealants.

Conservative Adhesion Dentistry ("Bonding")
Enamel recontouring and composite resin bonding of irregular or misshaped teeth may significantly improve a smile in a matter of minutes. Strategic planning and artistry transformed this smile into a masterpiece.

Smile Enhancements |
Many people who come to the dentist feel that obtaining an attractive smile is out of reach. They are often unaware of their cosmetic dental options, or believe that it will be too expensive and cause discomfort. Fortunately, many cosmetic dental procedures are cost-effective, and most importantly, create a beautiful result.
When I met Gaby, she wanted to know if there was a relatively simple, inexpensive way that she could improve her smile. I suggested tooth whitening, gentle shaping of her two front teeth, and white "resin" fillings to close the gap. It took Gaby only four weeks to achieve an excellent improvement in the color of her teeth using my simple at-home tooth whitening system. I shaped and closed the gap between her teeth. Her "dental makeover" was accomplished at a modest cost. |
Smile Makeovers |
The difference between mere attractiveness and truly stunning!
Comprehensive dental care may demand challenging solutions to complex problems, often utilizing multiple dental disciplines. Sarah presented to the office expressing concern about the appearance of her smile. She was afraid to wear lipstick and draw attention to her teeth. A dentist had removed her upper cuspids (eye teeth) when she was young in an attempt to accommodate her crowded mouth.
Minor orthodontics, crown & bridge dentistry, and restoration of Sarah's bite increased fullness in her upper lips, and dramatically enhanced her appearance. |
