Thanks to advances in modern dental materials and techniques, your dentist can help you attain the smile you've always wanted. The contour, color and alignment of your teeth can be changed by such cosmetic techniques as bleaching, bonding, veneers, inlays, and orthodontics.

Bleaching lightens stains or discoloration and can be performed on living teeth or teeth that have undergone root canal treatment.

Bonding restores chipped, cracked, miscolored or misaligned teeth by rebuilding the surface with a plastic or porcelain material.

Porcelain laminate veneers bond custom-made tooth-shaped shells to correct or camouflage discoloration, damage or misalignment.

 

Inlays and onlays can be tooth-colored restorations that are used on the chewing surfaces of the back teeth. They can be placed instead of silver fillings or to replace existing silver fillings.
