Invisalign® takes a modern approach to straightening teeth, using a custom-made series of aligners. These aligner trays are made of smooth, comfortable, and virtually invisible plastic that you wear over your teeth. Wearing the aligners will gradually and gently shift your teeth into place, based on the exact tooth movements our office plans out for you. There are no metal brackets to attach and no wires to tighten. You just switch to a new set of aligners approximately every two weeks, until your treatment is complete. You’ll achieve a great smile with little interference in your daily life. The best part about the whole process is that most people won’t even know that you’re straightening your teeth.

Porcelain veneers are thin pieces of porcelain used to recreate the natural appearance of teeth. To place a veneer, a thin layer of the original tooth enamel must be removed. Afterward, an adhesive layer is placed between the prepared tooth and the veneer. The adhesive is then hardened with the use of a specialized curing light.

What does cosmetic dentistry include?

Cosmetic dentistry includes any procedure that is performed primarily to improve the appearance of your smile, rather than the health or strength of your teeth. That said, there are some cosmetic dentistry procedures that have both functional and aesthetic benefits. These include dental crowns, dental implants, dental bridges, and Invisalign.

What is the difference between a dentist and a cosmetic dentist?

Cosmetic dentistry isn’t considered a separate dental specialty like oral surgery or orthodontics, so most general dentists and family dentists offer cosmetic services. Look for a dentist who has pursued continuing education in topics related to cosmetic dentistry.

How much does a smile makeover cost?

How do I know if I need cosmetic dentistry?

If your teeth and gums are healthy, but you’re unhappy with the appearance of your smile, getting cosmetic dentistry can help improve your self-confidence. Unlike getting a cavity filled or a dental crown, the decision to get cosmetic dentistry is a personal one, as it’s not necessary for your oral health.
