Teeth Whitening

We've noticed that just about everyone wants whiter teeth. And why not? The procedure provides fast results, often making you look younger and more vibrant. Talk to us about our exciting in-office treatment Zoom! or our various take-home teeth-whitening products and services that can help you achieve whiter teeth in about two weeks.

Zoom!

click here to learn more about zoom smile whitening To whiten your teeth, we use the most advanced technology available, called Zoom! The process takes a little over an hour and the results are dramatic - up to about eight shades whiter in a little over an hour. It’s safe, effective, and fast, very fast. You can go on with your day right away with a whiter, brighter smile, and it's ideal for anyone who wants immediate results, such as for a wedding or another important occasion.

The procedure is simple. It begins with a short preparation to cover your lips and gums, leaving only your teeth exposed. The Zoom! clinician then applies the proprietary Zoom! whitening gel, which was designed to be used with a specially designed light. The Zoom! light and gel work together to gently penetrate your teeth, breaking up stains and discoloration. With proper home care your smile will sparkle for years. This procedure is your first step to feeling good, looking great and making a memorable impression every time you smile.

Smile Makeovers

Many adults want to change their smiles. Some want to correct problems they have had since childhood (discolored, gapped, or crooked teeth).  Others want to fix conditions they've developed over time (cracked or worn-down teeth) to help create a more youthful smile.

If your teeth are dark or worn and make you look older, if gaps or chips make you feel self-conscious, or if crooked or discolored teeth stop you from smiling fully, a Smile Makeover can help. Although every patient's smile is unique, some new smiles are completed in a single visit. A Smile Makeover can involve redesigning the shape of your gums, as well as your teeth. There’s more to a smile than just teeth. And, it's not just about beautifying your smile, although that is of extreme importance. It's also about adjusting your bite so that it is healthy and strong. Having a good bite in the back helps support and protect your smile in the front.

Porcelain Veneers

Porcelain veneers produce great smiles. Teeth which are stained, chipped, uneven, cracked or otherwise damaged can look beautiful with this strong and conservative technique. Veneers are usually made from porcelain, and are a thin, semi-translucent shell that is custom made to fit precisely over an existing tooth. They are permanently bonded in place using a special resin adhesive and can last for many years. Durable and color-stable, veneers are, in many cases, the perfect way to restore the natural function and beauty of your teeth, so you can smile with confidence.
