We see anything that hastens the presence of a smile as a good thing! It is quite literally true that a smile enhances the body's immune system. The following techniques make it possible to quickly and comfortably enhance a smile.

• Bleaching

The photos on the left demonstrate the effect that bleaching can have on teeth that have grown naturally darker with age.

This simple and inexpensive process can dramatically brighten a smile.



• Porcelain Laminates

This wonderful technique allows us to cover the existing surface of a tooth with a thin layer of porcelain to instantly change the shape of a tooth.

As shown on the left, this technique has allowed us to dramatically alter the appearance of these front teeth.



• Cosmetic Bonding

Bonding is a procedure where we can add small amounts of tooth colored material to make small changes in the shape of a tooth. Shown here, it has allowed us to slightly alter the shape of these two front teeth to eliminate an unsightly space.

In addition to placing a small amount of bonding material between the two front teeth, the lateral incisors (on either side of the two front teeth) have been made longer by altering the gum line and have had laminates placed.
