Bonding
Amalgam Removal
Although some practices still use silver-mercury amalgam fillings, we use composite resin fillings that do not contain any metals and match the shade of the natural tooth. They bond very tightly to the natural tooth structure to greatly reduce the chance of decay setting in and around them. They also provide better support to the tooth structure.
Metal amalgam fillings detract from the appearance of a smile, as it is a dark, very contrasting material to the natural tooth. These fillings also have some shortcomings as metal does not bond well to tooth structure, eventually pulling away from the tooth margin and allowing decay to set in.
ZOOM! WhiteSpeed™ – A Whiter, Brighter Smile in a Day!
Part of an attractive smile is the brightness and whiteness of your teeth. Teeth become dull in color or lackluster from certain foods, caffeine, and tobacco. With modern treatments, returning your teeth’s brightness is easier to achieve than you may think.
ZOOM! bleaching is an in-office technique that is able to change teeth up to 8 shades lighter within 45-90 minutes. This is an immediate solution for stains caused by years of smoking, coffee, red wine, or cola that cannot be brushed away. Whitening gel is combined with a special light to give an accelerated result in just one visit. The intensity settings can be adjusted so sensitivity is minimal. You will be very impressed with this safe and very effective treatment.
