Instilling Good Habits During Childhood
We encourage children to keep their teeth healthy with proper daily cleaning
and food choices that are nutritious to prevent cavities and help them keep
their natural teeth for a lifetime.
It's important for our young
patients and their parents to understand that children's teeth are very
susceptible to cavities during their childhood for many reasons. Eating
produces acid in the mouth, and children tend to eat frequently throughout
the day. This increases exposure to that acid, which can start the decay
process. More often than not, kids don't brush properly. If teeth already
have plaque build-up in certain areas, frequent exposure to more acid will
both produce more cavities and increase the rate that each cavity develops.
In addition to daily brushing and flossing and consuming less
cavity-causing food and drink, we recommend that your children and teens
have one application of a dental sealant to their back teeth. It is quick,
easy, and painless but greatly helps in the reduction of cavity development.

A New Smile in Only Two Visits!
Don't think that correcting your smile is a hopeless case because you have unsightly gaps, dark stains or discoloration, or badly shaped teeth. With porcelain veneers, all these problems can be easily corrected in only two visits. They can give you a smile that will look like you have had years of straightening. Veneers are very durable, thin sheets of the best dental ceramic. They are bonded to your natural teeth to give you that even, straight, and very attractive smile.
Veneers can also correct a chipped, cracked, or worn tooth. They are bonded to the natural tooth and easily conceal the damage. The veneer will be made to match the shade of your surrounding teeth, so they look very natural and function as well as real teeth.
We also offer Lumineers™. These are super thin and very translucent. Little to no tooth reduction is necessary and most of the time, a shot is not needed.
