Veneers can hide an array of dental imperfections and can provide the confidence boost you need to let your smile shine! Two options are available at Lakeshore Family Dentistry and talking with our doctors will help you find the best fit.
Ceramic veneers are thin pieces of porcelain shaped to fit over the front side of the patient's teeth. The ceramic is chosen to match the shape and color of the surrounding permanent teeth for a natural look that seamlessly blends the veneers with the remaining teeth.
Composite veneers use a tooth-colored resin to improve the appearance of teeth. Unlike porcelain veneers, the dentist applies the resin directly to the tooth and then sculpts and shapes it to achieve the desired aesthetic.
Fillings are one of the most common dental procedures and are performed to treat a cavity and fix the damage caused by decay. Composite resin is used for most of our fillings and comprises a mixture of glass or quartz filler that provides durability and resistance to fracture. Composite resin is tooth-colored and the shade is chosen to closely match the color of the natural tooth. Composite fillings can be used on either front or back teeth which help preserve the aesthetics of your smile.
For a brighter, whiter smile, in-office whitening and custom whitening trays are a safe and effective way to highlight your smile! Both options offer great results and will be able to fit your needs and lifestyle. Please check out our whitening and white spot page for more information on our treatment offerings.
For patients with discolored teeth and white spots, resin infiltration is a great option to minimize their visibility. This treatment effectively removes white spots without the need for anesthetics, it is a minimally invasive treatment that can be completed in a minimal number of visits.
Please consult with our Dentists to see what treatment is right for you.
