Brighten up your smile. A professional whitening procedure can improve a yellowed and dull-looking smile. Advanced in-office whitening techniques give your teeth a brighter and more youthful look that could last for years with proper oral hygiene and care along with maintenance touchups.

Fix a chipped tooth or dark triangle spaces between teeth with bonding. You may have a great smile, except for that one tooth that’s missing a little piece or perhaps there are two teeth that have small dark space seen at the gumline. You can repair minor chips and other defects or voids with a cosmetic dental bonding treatment. Cosmetic bonding uses a composite resin that can be color-matched and shaped to fit the tooth being repaired so that it looks completely natural. Best of all, the transformation of your tooth’s appearance typically takes just one visit.

Gain a new look with veneers. If you have one or more teeth with mild to moderate chipping, staining, or misalignment, dental veneers could change their appearance altogether. These wafer-thin pieces of dental porcelain are bonded to the front of teeth to permanently mask imperfections and can deliver a true “Hollywood smile.”

Straighten your smile. It’s never too late to have your smile straightened. Clear aligners teeth straighteners, such as Invisalign™ or MOD Mouth Pro™ are computer-generated plastic trays worn in sequence to straighten teeth available by your dentist. They’re removable, so you can take them out to eat or clean your teeth. Best of all, they’re hardly noticeable while they are working on giving you a more attractive smile.

Preventive dental care is important throughout your life no matter your age. By practicing good oral hygiene at home and scheduling regular checkups with your dentist, you can help keep your smile bright and healthy for many years to come.

• Proper oral hygiene at home is crucial. Remember to brush, floss, and rinse.
• Eat a balanced diet and try to avoid extra-sugary treats. Nutritious foods such as raw vegetables, plain yogurt, cheese, or fruit can help keep your smile healthy.
• Remember to schedule regular checkups and professional teeth cleanings with your dentist every six months.
• If you play sports or if you are a known teeth grinder, be sure to ask your dentist about special mouthguards designed to protect your smile.
