Get a straight, aligned bite at Prentice Dental
Putting a porcelain veneer over a darkened or discolored tooth, or building up a cracked tooth with bonding certainly improves your aesthetics, but they also support a straight, aligned bite that contributes to better speech and makes it a lot easier to enjoy food by biting it comfortably and chewing properly.
Porcelain Veneers
Sometimes, teeth need a little help. Maybe they’re broken, stained, shaped oddly, or worn down—there can be a lot of reasons to consider porcelain veneers. By preparing the enamel to create a bondable surface, we can then place thin, super-strong, custom-molded porcelain veneers over your teeth, giving your smile a straight, even look and plenty of strength for biting and chewing. Veneers are a perfect example of cosmetic dentistry that makes you look better while improving the function of your teeth.
Full-Mouth Restoration
When a lot of issues present themselves at the same time—for instance, numerous missing or broken teeth—or one large issue is present, such as the effects of widespread gum disease, Dr. Prentice may recommend a full-mouth restoration. Using advanced treatment mapping technology, he’ll devise a personalized plan and lay out a series of procedures designed to get your teeth looking great and your mouth feeling healthy.
Smile Makeovers
There are few things more uncomfortable than being asked to smile when you know your smile doesn’t look anything like you want it to look. Whatever is holding you back from smiling, talk to us about fixing the problem. Whether you need a little straightening, a few chips fixed, some whitening, or a combination of other treatments, let us get you ready to smile confidently on cue.
Gum Recontouring
Gum recontouring can be a great option for those who are unhappy with a ‘gummy’ smile or uneven gum lines. By reshaping the gum tissue and creating an even smile that complements your teeth, gum recontouring also benefits oral hygiene by reducing bacteria buildup.
Composite Bonding
Smaller dental issues like chips, cracks, discoloration, or even an irregularly shaped tooth can dull an otherwise great smile. Using a small amount of custom-shaded bonding material, Dr. Prentice can make those minor problems disappear from view. Let’s talk about this affordable, long-lasting option for brightening your smile. One visit, and you’re done.
Tooth Recontouring
If you have teeth of varying lengths, teeth with surface indentations, or teeth with irregular enamel on the surface, let’s talk about tooth recontouring. It’s a simple process in which teeth are smoothed out and shortened to create a more harmonious smile. Recontouring is a painless procedure, done with a hard-tissue laser for greater accuracy. Get your smile looking better in just one visit.
Smile Whitening
There’s nothing like a whitening treatment for making a fast difference in your smile. At Prentice Dental, we rely on the KöR whitening system that allows for an intensive whitening treatment in the office, and lets you do at-home whitening, as well. Whether you have a big interview, a family event, or just want to feel better about your smile, KöR whitening is the way to go.
