Boost! Whitening

There are many different factors that contribute to the discoloring or staining of the teeth, including drinking dark liquids such as coffee and wine, smoking, and aging. We now offer a new and more efficient whitening system called BOOST! Chair-side Whitening System. BOOST Whitening is the fast, new way to whiten your teeth that is done in 1 visit! With BOOST, all teeth can be whitened simultaneously, and treatment is shown to be more effective than other whitening systems. Results are longer lasting and cause less sensitivity in the teeth.

BOOST is a gel that bleaches the dentin and enamel of the teeth, resulting in whiter, brighter teeth after treatment. During treatment, cheek retractors are placed so that all teeth may be exposed to the whitening gel. The gums will be covered to protect them from sensitivity. The BOOST gel will then be painted on the teeth. After 15 minutes, the gel will be removed and the mouth will be rinsed. This process is repeated another 2 times for a total of 45 minutes. You will see immediate results after treatment.

LUMINEERS

LUMINEERS are an excellent option for those looking for beautiful teeth without surgery or painful treatments. LUMINEERS are thin porcelain slips that are placed over the teeth to make your teeth instantly appear white and straight. LUMINEERS are a great option for those with large gaps in between the teeth, misaligned teeth, misshapen teeth, stained teeth, uneven gums and teeth, or unnatural looking bridges and crowns. They are long lasting (20 years), pain-free, and completely reversible. Multiple LUMINEERS can be applied at a time and will not affect speech or eating.

LUMINEERS require just two appointments. During your first appointment, impressions and X-rays will be taken to determine the exact shape of your teeth so that the LUMINEERS bond perfectly to your teeth. During this appointment, we will discuss what color and shape you hope to achieve. At your second appointment we will bond the LUMINEERS to your teeth. Once they are bonded, they will be polished and smoothed, leaving you with a beautiful white smile.

Dental Implants

Dental implants are a permanent solution for missing teeth. Dental implants are placed in the jaw to replace the natural root of the tooth. It is then covered with a crown (an artificial tooth, a cap). Implants are strong, durable, and imitate the function and feel like a natural tooth. After surgery, you will be able to chew and speak as you did with natural teeth. Among the benefits of dental implants, patients consider that with dental implants, the neighboring teeth are not affected, joint paint and bite irregularities can be fixed, facial tissues are restored or enhanced, and bridges and dentures can be supported.
