Cosmetic dentistry can dramatically improve the appearance of flawed teeth by addressing a wide range of issues, including:
- A dull smile
- Crooked teeth
- Oddly shaped teeth
- Stains and discolorations
- A chipped or cracked tooth
- Excess spacing between teeth
- Crowded or overlapping teeth
- A gummy smile
Cosmetic Dentistry Services
We offer many cosmetic dentistry services, procedures, and treatments at our office in Jersey City, NJ. The dentist can recommend specific services to help you achieve the smile you desire. Some of the many exciting cosmetic dentistry services we offer include:
Whitening: We offer a tray whitening system that allows you to quickly brighten your smile by 4-8 shades in the comfort of your own home when it’s convenient for you. The system includes two custom whitening trays made from an impression of your teeth, as well as a professional-strength whitening gel. Simply add the gel to the trays, then place the trays over the top and bottom rows of teeth when ready to whiten. Within a few days, your smile will be noticeably whiter.
Porcelain Veneers: Veneers are thin laminate covers permanently affixed to the front of teeth with cosmetic concerns, such as stains, discolorations, or chipped edges. Veneers conceal flaws and give teeth a flawless appearance. Veneers are often made from porcelain because it looks so much like tooth enamel. Once in place, porcelain veneers look like part of your natural teeth.
Bonding: A procedure for repairing chipped, cracked, or broken teeth, as well as covering stains or closing small gaps between teeth. Bonding involves applying a tooth-colored resin material to the problem area of the tooth. The resin becomes bonded to the tooth as it dries. Once dry, the bonded area blends in completely with the rest of the tooth.
Snap-On Smile: A method for improving the appearance of your smile without drilling or extensive dental work. Using a physical impression of your teeth, a new set of teeth is made from a lightweight resin material. The new teeth snap into place over your existing teeth and can be easily removed as needed. For instance, your snap-on smile can be removed to brush and floss your natural teeth, then snapped back in place.
