Why do your teeth need this kind of attention?
Essentially, it's because over time they tend to build up a layer of plaque (a sticky, bacteria-rich film) and hard deposits (called tartar, or calculus) that are very difficult to remove without special tools.
When these deposits are allowed to remain on the tooth surfaces or below the gum line, they provide ideal conditions for bacteria to grow and multiply.

Teeth whitening done in a professional dental setting is a safe, effective way to brighten your smile.
It's also perhaps the most economical cosmetic dental procedure.
Depending on the whitening method you choose, results can be dramatic: in-office whitening, for example, can lighten teeth three to eight shades in a single hour.
Professionally supervised whitening will work faster, and protect sensitive gums and tooth-root surfaces better, than over-the-counter whitening products.
Having an oral exam before you begin any whitening process is an important first step to make sure your tooth discoloration is not the result of a dental condition in need of treatment.

Bonding is a conservative way to repair slightly chipped, discolored, or crooked teeth.
During dental bonding, a white filling is placed onto your tooth to improve its appearance.
The filling "bonds" with your teeth, and because it comes in a variety of tooth-colored shades, it closely matches the appearance of your natural teeth.
Tooth bonding can also be used for teeth fillings instead of amalgam fillings.
Many patients prefer bonded fillings because the white color is much less noticeable than the silver amalgam fillings.

A bridge, also known as a fixed removable denture, is made to replace one or more missing teeth.
A traditional bridge is made by creating a crown for the teeth on either side of the space and placing a false tooth or teeth between the crowns.
The crowns, sometimes called caps, can be supported by natural teeth or by implants.
The false tooth or teeth are attached to the crowns and fill the empty space.
If the teeth receiving the crowns are healthy and strong, they probably will not need root canal therapy.
