Inlays & Onlays

An inlay or onlay restoration is a custom made filling made of composite material, gold, or tooth-colored porcelain.  Porcelain inlays/onlays are popular because they resemble your natural tooth.  An onlay is sometimes also referred to as a partial crown.  A porcelain inlay/onlay is made by a professional dental laboratory and is permanently cemented into(inlay) or onto(onlay) the tooth by your dentist.  Onlays are essentially identical to inlays with the exception that one or more of the chewing cusps have also been affected and need to be included in the restoration.

Tooth Whitening

Tooth whitening is a simple, non-invasive dental treatment used to change the color of natural tooth enamel and is an ideal way to enhance the beauty of your smile.

Having whiter teeth has now become the number one aesthetic concern of most patients, there are a number of ways to whiten teeth.  The most popular method is using a home tooth whitening system that will whiten teeth dramatically.  Since tooth whitening only works on natural tooth enamel, it is important to evaluate replacement of any old fillings, crowns, etc.  Replacement of any restorations will be done after bleaching so they will match the newly bleached teeth.

Dental implants are a great way to replace missing teeth and also provide a fixed solution to having removable partial or complete dentures.  Implants provide excellent support and stability for these dental appliances. They are like artificial roots that are surgically placed into the upper or lower jaw bone.  The teeth attached to implants are very natural looking and often enhance or restore a patient’s smile!

Invisalign®

Whereas traditional braces use metal brackets and wires bonded to the teeth, Invisalign® is comprised of a series of custom fabricated clear plastic aligning “trays” that snap down over your teeth. While the metal brackets and wires remain fixed in place for the duration of the treatment, the plastic aligners are removable. The advantages of being able to take your braces off go without saying. The minimum requirement is that you wear the aligners for an average of twenty two hours per day. You can take them off to eat and drink, or leave them at home if you just have a big date or a photograph you don’t want them to be seen in. Each aligning tray in the series is worn for two weeks.

Veneers

Veneers are very thin pieces of durable, tooth shaped porcelain that are custom made (for shape and color) by a professional dental laboratory.  They are bonded onto the front of teeth to create a beautiful and attractive smile. Veneers can completely reshape your teeth and smile.  They can often be alternatives to crowns and the ideal solution in treating many dental conditions.
