Cosmetic Dentistry

 
 

Part of our job is to make you feel good about your smile. Sometimes a simple reassurance will help a self critical patient perceive their smile in a better light.

However, if you still have doubts about your smile, if you refrain from smiling fully, or smiling altogether, cosmetic dentistry offers you the opportunity to regain the freedom and the confidence you have lost.

Cosmetic dentistry can brighten dull teeth, whiten stained teeth, close gaps between teeth, repair chipped teeth, mask metal fillings, and straighten crooked teeth. Cosmetic dentistry opens doors and removes obstacles to professional and social success.

Dr. Lehman and Dr. Thibaudeau use state-of-the-art dental technology to design customized, beautiful smiles that fulfill the unique wants and needs of each of their patients. We offer a wide array of cosmetic services to obtain superior results.

Bleaching

This tooth whitening process offers those with stained, discolored, or dull teeth a whiter, brighter smile. Bleaching significantly reduces sub-surface stains caused by the enamel absorption of staining  food or drink. We provide both an at-home (custom upper and lower trays) bleaching system as well as an in-office procedure. It is a painless and affordable process.  In-office "power bleaching" gives you that bright, white smile in one 1 hour visit. Crest white strips also are effective and are available at our office or over the counter at your local pharmacy center.

Veneers

Veneers, usually customized from porcelain, are thin, semi-translucent facings bonded to the front teeth. Veneers are durable, stain resistant, and are exceptionally natural looking. They conceal broken, chipped, discolored, crooked, and misshapen teeth.

Concept Restoration

A process in which tooth-colored composite resin is applied to tooth surfaces, sculptured into shape, hardened, and polished to match surrounding teeth. Concept restorations can close gaps, repair chipped or fractured teeth, and disguise discolored teeth. It usually requires one office visit and no anesthetic. They adhere to actually strengthen the remaining tooth structure. This reduces the possibility of future fractures and other difficulties that can result from the natural chewing process.
