Veneers
You want to love the way your teeth look, don’t you? We all do. And with Veneers, you can have that! Cosmetic dentistry services can make your teeth whiter, straighter and more beautiful than they’ve ever been.
Veneers are thin covers that can be placed over the front of your teeth to hide chips, cracks and other imperfections. If you have misshapen teeth or teeth that have gaps between them, veneers can make your teeth appear more evenly spaced and more conventionally beautiful.
Veneers can be used to address a variety of cosmetic concerns, such as discoloration and misaligned teeth.

Dental Crowns
A dental crown is a thin cover that fits over a tooth, to protect damaged tooth enamel. Dental crowns are shaped to look just like natural teeth and they can be made the same color as natural teeth, as well. This means that dental crowns can be hard to distinguish from natural teeth, and if you have a tooth-colored crown, no one will be able to tell.
Dental crowns can be used to restore the appearance and functionality of the tooth for patients who have had any one of the following:
- Tooth Decay
- A Cracked Tooth
- A Broken Tooth
- A Dental Bridge (the crown can hold the bridge in place)
- Misshapen or discolored teeth
Dental Bridges
A dental bridge is an artificial tooth that’s held in place with crowns on either side to attach to the teeth. A bridge is a very natural looking prosthetic tooth. A well-placed bridge should look just like your other teeth, so no one can tell that it’s not a real tooth.
Dental bridges allow gaps between your teeth due to extractions to be filled in an aesthetic, functional way. A dental bridge uses two partial crowns on the outside and a full crown (or artificial tooth) in the middle to help restore the mouth. The structure is anchored by the surrounding teeth, which is typically enough for the patient to chew and speak normally.
We are committed to friendly, high-quality dental care for every member of the family. If you would like to know more about becoming our patient or need to schedule an appointment, reach out to the team today.
Restorative Dentistry
Restorative dentistry is an overall term for any dental procedure that repairs, and restores damaged teeth to their normal appearance and function. It’s designed to help you regain your ability to bite, chew, and speak normally.
Restoring Implants
- Restoring dental implants involves attaching replacement teeth, like crowns or bridges, to the implants themselves. This creates a permanent and natural-looking solution for missing teeth.
- The restoration process typically involves a dentist and a prosthodontist (a specialist in restoring teeth). They work together to design and place the perfect prosthetic teeth for your smile.
- The replacement teeth are custom-made to match the size, shape, and color of your surrounding teeth for a seamless look.
- Unlike traditional dentures, implant restorations are secured directly to the jawbone, providing exceptional strength and stability when biting and chewing.
With proper care, dental implant restorations can last for many years, offering a reliable and durable replacement for missing teeth.
