Cosmetic Dentistry
Improving a patient’s smile has beneficial effects far beyond just making their teeth prettier. For so many patients, it actually makes their lives better. A smile a person wants to hide can affect their enjoyment of life and even their professional advancement.
Dr. Lipson and his staff are very happy to help patients achieve a more beautiful smile. Our patients should feel completely free to respond to life events with big smiles or laughter. When we improve a smile and give a person that freedom, we feel just as delighted as they do.
Veneers
Dental veneers enable us to quickly make improvements in a patient’s smile. These thin, tough shells of porcelain are bonded to the front of a person’s teeth to improve their appearance. We can apply a veneer to a single tooth that has darkened or chipped or we can apply them to all the visible teeth for a brilliant new smile.
Bonding
Dental bonding is such a versatile procedure that we use it for small repairs or big changes. When a corner of a tooth is chipped, quick use of dental bonding material quickly fixes it. It can also be used for larger improvements such as reshaping several teeth to make them more uniform. Or it can conceal discolored teeth that won’t respond to whitening. This procedure has the additional benefit of being able to be completed in a single office visit.
Tooth-Colored Fillings
Many of our patients have requested that we improve their smiles by replacing old, dark metal fillings with tooth-colored fillings. We are happy to help. Tooth-colored fillings also help keep a smile beautiful when fillings are needed in visible areas of the smile.
At-Home Whitening
Dark drinks or foods or aging can make a smile dingy. Improving a darkened smile can be accomplished with one of our at-home whitening kits. This kit can achieve whitening at the pace the patient desires.
We look forward to helping you enhance your smile. Please call us with questions about our cosmetic procedures, or if you are ready to schedule an appointment: 708-532-9303.
