Professional In-Office Teeth Whitening
Having a bright, white smile can give us a great boost of confidence, but unfortunately, regular habits of drinking coffee, tea, soft drinks, and smoking tobacco can leave behind unpleasant discoloration. To help you achieve your desired smile, we offer a variety of whitening options tailored to your needs. With professional in-office whitening or custom whitening kits, you can restore your glowing, white teeth and feel great about your smile.
Tooth-Colored Dental Fillings
Composite tooth-colored fillings can be an excellent option for filling cavities. These dental restorations are designed to be unnoticeable and natural, blending in with the teeth. These fillings repair chipped teeth and fill in decayed tooth areas. These fillings are made of a specific resin, blending plastic and ceramic particles to make a durable material easily molded and shaped during placement. Composite fillings can be made with the same color as your natural tooth, and are a discreet way to repair teeth and are direct fillings, so they can be performed in one appointment. In being less expensive than other options, such as gold fillings, composite fillings are also excellent for those with metal allergies.
Invisalign
The dental industry was revolutionized with the introduction of Invisalign clear aligners in 1998. Our orthodontic team was thrilled to be able to offer a more comfortable and convenient treatment option for our patients. The clear material and removable feature of the aligners was a welcome change to traditional bracket and wire braces.
Many patients who have received Invisalign report satisfaction with their aligners, although they are not a complete replacement for traditional braces in all cases. If you want to correct overbite, underbite, gapped teeth, or overcrowding, ask your dental expert at Vibrant Square Dental if you’re a good candidate for Invisalign.
Porcelain And Composite Resin Veneers
Porcelain veneers are a great option for cosmetic dental care as they have a semi-translucent quality and are very durable. These thin sheets of custom-made porcelain are designed to look like a tooth’s natural enamel and can be used for both cosmetic and restorative purposes. Porcelain veneers can provide a brighter white than whitening treatments alone, and with proper care and hygiene can last from 7-15 years.
Composite resin veneers are an alternative to porcelain veneers and are made up of thin layers of composite bonding which are carefully shaped and hardened by a dentist. They can be used to repair chipped, worn, or otherwise damaged teeth, as well as to fix teeth that are crooked, discolored, or misshapen. The composite material is malleable and tintable, making the veneers look natural and fitting. With good care, composite veneers can last up to 10 years.
Dental Crowns And Bridges
A dental crown, sometimes referred to as a dental cap, is a type of dental restoration that completely covers and encases the visible portion of the tooth. It is often used to restore a damaged or weakened tooth, protect a tooth after a root canal, or cover a dental implant. Usually made from porcelain, the crown is custom-made to match the color and shape of the patient’s existing teeth. A dental crown can improve the strength, function, and appearance of a person’s tooth. If there is one or more missing teeth, a dental bridge can be used to fill the gap with one or more replacement teeth.
Dental Implants
After removing a tooth, many patients seek ways of restoring their smile. For many years a common approach has been getting bridges or crowns. However, dental implants have become an increasingly popular option among our patients. They are stable, aesthetically pleasing, functional, and serve to strengthen the jawbone. They’re appropriate whether you’re missing one tooth, several, or an entire arch of teeth.
A Complete Smile Makeover
If you feel like multiple issues are affecting the look of your smile, then it might be time to consider a smile makeover. This type of cosmetic dentistry takes into account all aspects of your smile, such as the use of crowns or bridges for restoration, dental implants, veneers, and orthodontic care. With a smile makeover, you can finally achieve the smile of your dreams!
