Bonding is a popular method to enhance the aesthetics of your smile.
Bonding can be used to correct cracks or gaps in teeth, as a filling after a cavity has been removed, or to cover up stains or discolored teeth.
A composite resin is used on the affected tooth or teeth.
It is molded and sculpted over an adhesive gel that is placed on the tooth.
After the resin has been applied an, LED light is used to harden the resin, which is then polished to give you a fresh, new smile.

Dental bridges are a great way to replace missing teeth.
Your existing teeth are used to literally create a bridge to cross the area where your tooth is missing.
Bridges are made from gold, metal, alloys, or porcelain to ensure that they are strong and durable.
The process of creating a bridge begins by creating abutments out of your existing teeth where the bridge will be attached.
The existing teeth are recontoured to provide a base for the bridge.
After the abutments have been created, a mold is taken of the area which is sent to a dental lab.

Over time our teeth begin to weaken and become more susceptible to problems such as decay, cracks, discoloration and others.
If you feel your smile isn't what it once was, crowns can help you recover your smile.
If your dentist notices that a tooth is decayed or seems weakened/cracked a crown may be necessary to make sure that there are no additional problems with the tooth.
In cases like this a filling or bonding will not be sufficient.
Crowns can be made from porcelain, porcelain fused to metal, or a full gold crown.

Dentures are a replacement for missing teeth that can be removed and put back into your mouth as you please.
Depending on each individual patient case, they may receive full or partial dentures.
Full dentures are used when all of the natural teeth are removed from the mouth and replaced with a full set of dentures.
There are two types of full dentures.
Conventional Full Dentures - This is when all the teeth are removed and the tissue is given time to heal before the dentures are placed.
It could take a few months for the gum tissue to heal completely, and during this time you will be without teeth.
