Cosmetic Dentistry: Transform Your Smile and Increase Your Confidence
Your smile says a lot about you, and at Deerpath Orthodontics and Family Dental, we want to help you put your best smile forward. Our personalized cosmetic dentistry procedures can transform your smile while ensuring your oral health for years to come. Our team is here to help you get the smile of your dreams.
We offer a host of cosmetic dental procedures, including:
- Aesthetic composite restorations
- Porcelain Veneers
- In-office and take-home whitening options
Aesthetic Composite Restorations
Composite restorations use tooth-colored material to fill a cavity or bond a tooth. They can be used to correct minor issues, such as cracks, chips, discoloring, and gaps. The composite resin can be colored to perfectly match your smile, creating a natural and aesthetically pleasing look.
Composite restorations are minimally invasive and preserve more of the tooth’s natural structure than other restoration options. Most composite restorations can be completed in only one visit, and they are a budget-friendly smile option.
Porcelain Veneers
Porcelain veneers are essentially ceramic shells that are bonded directly to the front of teeth to correct minor cosmetic issues. Veneers can be a great way to correct issues such as staining or discoloration, chips, cracks, and gaps. They are designed to look just like natural teeth but provide a durable and stain-resistant solution to correct minor dental imperfections.
Veneers are custom-made for each individual tooth, and the porcelain material mimics the look of a natural tooth. Porcelain veneers are much more resistant to staining from food and drink than other veneers and can last for many years when properly cared for.
The process starts with a smile design appointment in which the face and jaw structure are evaluated to establish a perfect smile that will enhance the aesthetic of your face, not just the mouth. Some teeth might need gingival contouring, crown elongation, or even shortening of the crown to achieve a perfect result. This is unique to each individual.
At the mock-up appointment, Dr. Emgushova will do mock-ups of the precut smile and ensure that it is something you are looking for before we even start the process. Dr. Emgushova will then prep the teeth for the perfect custom smile. This ensures that the veneer will blend in seamlessly with your smile. Impressions are taken to ensure your veneers are custom-created to fit your teeth. The veneers are then bonded directly to the front of your teeth to create a beautiful new smile.
Because we remove enamel from your teeth in order to ensure an ideal fit for the veneers, this process is irreversible.
In-Office Tooth Whitening
A bright and beautiful smile can help you greet the world around you with confidence. We are proud to offer Philips Zoom in-office whitening treatments for our patients. Zoom whitening uses a special whitening gel that is applied to the teeth and activated by an LED light. This enhances the gel penetration and speeds up the whitening process. The process not only provides clinically superior results, but it is also comfortable, too.
Whitening procedures often come with a fear of tooth sensitivity, but our procedure incorporates desensitizing agents to reduce discomfort, while also strengthening tooth enamel. You can achieve whiter teeth in just one visit. And it’s so quick, you can even visit us on your lunch break and return to work with a noticeably brighter smile!
Take-Home Whitening Kits
While you can buy over-the-counter whitening kits and strips at your local drug store, take-home whitening kits offered by the experts at Deerpath Orthodontics and Family Dental offer the most effective at-home whitening results. Our kits offer a higher concentration of active ingredients than those purchased at a drugstore.
Our take-home whitening kits have custom trays that fit snugly over your teeth to ensure the whitening gel stays in place and covers the entire surface of your teeth. With regular use, our higher concentration teeth whitening formulas can provide professional-looking results from the comfort of your home.
