Lumineers, Dental Porcelain Veneers & Dental Bonding

Porcelain Veneers can rejuvenate your smile. They can lighten, lengthen, fill-in spaces, or cover stains, chips and cracks. Done properly, porcelain veneers can provide you with the smile of your dreams.

Lumineers are a brand of porcelain used to make porcelain veneers. DenMat Corporation owns this brand of porcelain. There are limitations with using only this type of porcelain. Let the expert cosmetic dentist suggest the type of porcelain which will achieve your desired smile goals.

Dental Bonding can improve the appearance of teeth that are chipped, broken, cracked, stained, or have spaces between them. To do this, tooth colored materials are bonded to the surface of the tooth.

Porcelain Crowns (Caps) and Dental Bridges

Dental Porcelain Crowns are custom-made to cover your tooth so it will look and function naturally. It is especially beneficial when you have large silver fillings that have been weakening the tooth making it susceptible to breaking. If there isn't enough supportive tooth to receive a dental filling, a crown may be a long-term solution

Today, porcelain (White) crowns or caps can be made without metal. This makes the tooth appear natural and eliminates forever those black lines and dark areas around the gums that plagued older crowns.  A porcelain dental bridge has the same qualities as a porcelain crown but can be used to replace missing teeth, too.

Laser Gum Recontouring and Tooth Re-Shaping

Perhaps you already have a nice smile but it looks "gummy". Sometimes your beautiful teeth are hiding under the curtains of your gums. Quite often, we can expose your pearly whites by simply using a laser to erase all that extra tissue.

Re-contouring isn't limited to gums. Often, pointed, slightly rotated, or uneven teeth can be gently re-shaped to look great and give you the overall appearance you desire.
