Teeth Whitening
This cosmetic procedure is ideal for people who have healthy, unrestored teeth and gums. If you are not sure if you are a good candidate for bleaching, just ask! Tray-based tooth whitening
consists of customized trays made from molds of the upper and lower teeth. A gel whitening solution is then used in the tray, and worn at home for an hour a day for approximately 10-14 days, or until the desired shade is achieved. Opalescence On The Go is a take home bleaching kit that comes with a ten day supply of upper and lower trays pre-filled with whitening solution. These trays are worn for 30 minutes per day. Both are excellent ways to achieve a whiter smile!
*The degree of whiteness will vary per person. Sensitivity or gum irritation may occur with any whitening system. Teeth whitening is not covered by insurance.
Bonding
Among the easiest and least expensive of cosmetic dental procedures, it is best for small cosmetic changes. Bonding can be used to repair decay, chipped/cracked teeth, close spaces between teeth, or protect a portion of the tooth's root that has been exposed when gums recede.
Veneers
Veneers are thin, custom-made shells of tooth-colored materials designed to cover the front surface of teeth to improve appearance. A veneer may be best suited for people who want to change the shape of their teeth more than just a little bit, (as is done with bonding) but not enough to require a full crown. Veneers are not generally covered by insurance.
