Examples of cosmetic dentistry we provide?

Cosmetic dentistry aims to create a more balanced, symmetrical and aesthetically pleasing smile. Common cosmetic dental services include teeth whitening, dental bonding, veneers, and tooth and gum contouring.

Teeth whitening

Over time, dark-colored foods and drinks (like coffee, tea and berries) can stain your teeth. Professional teeth whitening can dramatically and safely lighten the shade of your teeth and brighten your smile.

Dental bonding

Dental bonding involves the application of tooth-colored composite resin. Our dentists near you will use a pliable material, composite resin, to sculpt over the flaws. Dental bonding can change the shape of a tooth to make it longer, wider or more uniform.

Dental bonding usually needs replacing every five to seven years. It doesn’t require the removal of natural tooth enamel either, which means it’s completely reversible.

Porcelain veneers

Made of medical grade ceramic, porcelain veneers are thin, strong shells that adhere to the front surfaces of your teeth. Like dental bonding, veneers can conceal a wide range of cosmetic flaws, including chips, cracks and discoloration.

There are many types of veneers, including traditional and minimal prep. All veneers require at least some removal of natural enamel, which means they could be reversible depending on which kind you choose. In most cases, porcelain veneers need replacing every 10 years or so.

Invisalign

A clear or invisible aligner is a dental treatment that repositions misaligned or crooked teeth. They look like mouthguards, but they may go over the upper and lower teeth and correct imperfections, not guard against hits to the head and mouth.

Inlays and Onlays

Inlays and onlays offer several benefits. For example, unlike dental fillings, inlays and onlays in Pittston, PA strengthen the tooth structure and add at least 50-60% additional chewing force to a damaged tooth.
