Are we building a smile you used to have or a smile you have never had?
Cosmetic Dentistry can pertain to many aspects of dentistry. We all expect our dentistry to look beautiful and natural. Cosmetic Dentistry can be as simple as a tooth colored filling or tooth whitening. It can also be more complex involving porcelain veneers or crowns. In even more complex cases, it can involve a full-smile makeover which could include veneers, crowns or prosthetics such as dentures or implant crowns or implant supported dentures. Simply put, Cosmetic Dentistry can cover any aspect of dentistry. In order to perform exceptional services and provide options requires training and experience. Dr. Sherry has and continues to invest in further training and techniques in order to build the smile of your dreams.
In some cases, Porcelain Veneers are placed for patients seeking Cosmetic Dentistry. Porcelain Veneers are very thin laminates of porcelain that are bonded to the front of the teeth to change the color, shape and length of your current teeth. Porcelain veneers are one of the more conservative options to change your smile.
Where gums connect to the tooth’s surface impacts the overall appearance of a patient’s smile. With Gum Contouring and Connective Tissue Grafting, we are able to ensure a patient’s gums connect at the optimal position on the surface of the teeth. Gum Contouring is performed to correct a “ gummy smile”. This usually happens when adult teeth do not fully emerge from the bone and gums. Connective Tissue Grafting is for patients with receding gum lines and/or exposed roots. By covering the exposed root, patients not only improve the appearance of their smile, but they also protect the root from further damage.
