Many of our patients come to us because there is something, they want to change about their smile. When it comes to cosmetic dentistry, there are a number of options that include whitening or veneers. For some patients, they may just dream about whiter teeth. A question I commonly get is, is whitening my teeth safe? And yes, it’s absolutely safe. Some people may experience some sensitivity with whitening, but there is no harm that is done to your enamel.

We have different options for whitening. From a pack of disposable whitening trays that we sell in our office. To custom bleaching trays that patients can continue to use over and over. Some patients come to us because they do not like the shape of their teeth, or they think their teeth are too small, or maybe they have worn their teeth over time. Typically, these patients may be good candidates for veneers.

Veneers are thin custom-made coverings that are bonded to the front of the tooth. Veneers can make a drastic difference to someone’s smile and confidence. When a patient is considering veneers, we have the technology to show them exactly what their finished product would look like from a customized wax up. Another cosmetic service we provide is Invisalign, which is a series of clear aligners used to move and straighten teeth. Cosmetic consultations are complimentary to all of our patients, and we would love to talk to you about achieving your dreams smile.
