What is a smile makeover?
You deserve to have the smile of your dreams, and you can with our Smile Makeover. After a comprehensive consultation to determine your desires and goals, Dr. A may recommend one, or a combination, of the following procedures for your most dazzling smile:
Professional whitening with the KöR system
At times, just a simple enhancement such as whitening your teeth can produce profound results, making you appear younger and healthier. A number of factors can affect the shade of your tooth enamel, such as:
- Avoiding regularly scheduled checkups
- Coffee, tea, wines, colas, and certain fruits or vegetables
- Normal aging and wear and tear
- Prescription or over the counter medications such as antidepressants, high blood pressure pills, some antibiotics or antihistamines
- Health conditions
- Tobacco use
Implants, crowns, bridges, and dentures
Missing, unsightly, damaged, or decayed teeth can be restored with a number of prosthetic options. Implants replace an entire root of a tooth or teeth, adding stability to your jawbone, supporting surrounding teeth, and securing bridges or dentures for comfort and ease of speaking and eating. Individual natural-looking crowns, or caps, can cover and protect broken or damaged teeth and restore your smile.
Bonding
Minor imperfections like chips in your teeth can easily be repaired using durable tooth-colored resin that is shaped and polished to match your overall smile.
Veneers
Porcelain is an ideal dental material because it has many of the light-reflecting characteristics of your natural enamel. Tin layers of porcelain may be bonded to your teeth to camouflage slightly crooked, discolored, or strangely shaped teeth.
Alignment solutions
Adults can enjoy straighter teeth without the hassle or stigma of conventional braces. We offer two options for a more pleasing smile:
- Invisalign – this advanced technology allows you to shift your teeth gently and gradually into the appropriate position without wires or braces. Completely clear and discreet, Invisalign moves your teeth through a series of comfortable and removable trays. This system gives you the ability to maintain optimal hygiene and eat without restrictions.
- Six month smiles – focusing on the simple cosmetic appeal of straighter teeth, Six Month Smiles straightens the teeth that are most visible, therefore requiring significantly less time than is required for traditional braces to correct bite problems. With tooth colored brackets, the alignment system eliminates adult concerns over a “mouth full of metal.”
