Cosmetic Dentistry
Teeth Whitening
Our teeth whitening procedure consists of three 20-minute sessions entirely done in the office.
In addition, you will take home a teeth whitening kit to ensure your smile’s brightness!
Veneers
Porcelain veneers are made from custom porcelain, which is a solid material. They fit over your teeth, enhancing the natural beauty of your smile.
They’re a pain-free, cosmetic solution to improving your smile. Porcelain veneers can repair chips, cover gaps, and expand your teeth, giving you a radiant smile.
Benefits of Cosmetic Dentistry
Improved Smile Aesthetics
Cosmetic dentistry can address many dental concerns, such as stained or discolored teeth, misaligned teeth, gaps between teeth, chipped or cracked teeth, and more.
Addressing these issues helps improve the smile’s overall appearance, enhancing self-confidence and self-esteem.
Enhanced Oral Function
Certain cosmetic dentistry procedures improve teeth’ appearance and restore their functionality.
For example, dental crowns or veneers can repair damaged teeth and restore their strength and functionality, allowing for proper chewing and speaking.

These treatments often require minimal removal of natural tooth structure, preserving the integrity of the teeth, while achieving desired aesthetic improvements.
