COSMETIC VENEERS AND CROWNS

Gaps, chips, stains, or misshapen teeth can now be treated with wonderful results and very conservatively using porcelain veneers. Veneers are natural in appearance and are a perfect alternative for patients wanting to make minor adjustments to the look and feel of their smile.

Veneers are thin, custom-made shells made from tooth-colored materials (such as porcelain) designed to cover the front side of your teeth. For dental veeners schedule a veneer consultation.

The terms dental crowns and caps are synonymous. Crowns are typically used to restore a tooth’s function and appearance following a restorative procedure such as a root canal.

When decay in a tooth has become so advanced that large portions of the tooth must be removed, crowns are often used to restore the tooth. Crowns are also used to attach bridges, cover implants, or to prevent a cracked tooth from becoming worse.

Crowns also serve an aesthetic use, and are applied when a discolored or stained tooth needs to be restored to its natural appearance. Crowns are fabricated in a laboratory and are made either of porcelain baked onto a metal substrate, all-porcelain, or many of the new ceramic materials that have been developed.

WHAT IS SNAP-ON SMILE?

Snap-On Smile is a patented, easy and painless way to obtain a beautiful smile. It was invented by a dentist who realized that not everyone can afford thousands of dollars to get a Hollywood smile make-over.

After years of extensive research and development, your dentist can now provide you with a Snap-On Smile that is thin and strong with the look of natural teeth. You can eat and drink with your Snap-On Smile. It’s easy to care for and can be a temporary or permanent cosmetic solution. It’s available for upper and lower teeth.

Lumineers®

As the most requested dental veneer system in the world, Lumineers® by Cerinate can quickly and comfortably transform an imperfect smile into one that dazzles. Ultra-thin porcelain facings that are placed over your existing teeth, Lumineers are a painless, permanent cosmetic solution for stained, chipped, discolored or misaligned teeth.

Replicating the natural translucency of dental enamel to create a natural and beautiful looking smile, Lumineers offer the outstanding advantage of being thinner than traditional veneers. This means that the removal of sensitive tooth structure to achieve a perfect fit, or any injections to numb the area, are typically not required. Since little to no tooth preparation is necessary, there is also no need to wear temporary veneers until your permanent Lumineers are placed. In just a couple of comfortable and stress-free visits you can attain the beautiful smile that you’ve always wanted.

Looking natural and feeling comfortable from the moment they are permanently bonded to your teeth, the extraordinary durability of Lumineers allows them to resist wear and remain resilient for many years to come.
