Cosmetic Dentistry
Digital Smile Design
Digital Smile Design is a treatment planning protocol that helps dentists and patients work together to plan the outcome of cosmetic and restorative treatments. Using advanced technology and images of your teeth and face, we can show you a realistic preview of what your new smile will look like. We’ll make adjustments as needed so you can achieve a look that complements both your natural oral structures and your facial features. The protocol also helps to minimize errors and ensure functional, high-quality treatment results.
Porcelain Veneers
Whether you have stains, chips, cracks, gaps, or even slightly rotated teeth, they are all no match for porcelain veneers. This treatment can mask a wide variety of aesthetic flaws simultaneously to create a Hollywood-style smile in just two appointments. They are actually extremely thin ceramic shells that are bonded to the front of the teeth, and with them, we can give you everything from a minor touch-up to a dramatic makeover. They are always custom-made, so it’s entirely up to you.
Metal-Free Dental Restorations
When the teeth that show when you smile become damaged or decayed, they require extra special care because your oral health and appearance are on the line. To take care of both of them, we’ll only use all-porcelain restorations. Dental porcelain can be shaped and shaded to emulate real enamel in almost every way, and in the end, even YOU will have trouble seeing where your natural tooth ends and the restoration begins!
Direct Tooth Bonding
Direct tooth bonding offers a quick, easy, and affordable solution for minor cosmetic flaws that can create big problems for a smile. Your dentist will apply a naturally-colored composite resin to your tooth to build up any damaged/missing enamel, and then they’ll literally sculpt it to perfection. It’s just that simple, and often, the entire procedure takes less than an hour. And, with the proper care, you can look forward to the results lasting for 10 years or more.
Teeth Whitening
Whether your teeth have discolored due to coffee, wine, tobacco, aging, or unlucky genetics, we can easily restore your smile’s natural shine with our professional teeth whitening treatments. Whether you want a quick in-office treatment or a convenient take-home whitening kit, we can provide the means to make your smile up to eight shades whiter in no time. Our treatments will give you the dramatic results you just can’t achieve with generic over-the-counter whitening products.
Invisalign
Have you always wanted straighter teeth but haven’t done anything about it because you didn’t want to get metal braces? If so, then Invisalign is exactly what you’ve been waiting for. Instead of noticeable brackets and wires, it uses a series of crystal-clear plastic aligner trays to gradually straighten the teeth in the most discreet and comfortable way possible. Better yet, the trays are removable as well, meaning you’ll be able to eat and take care of your teeth without having to worry about your treatment.
Understanding the Cost of Cosmetic Dentistry
Some people are reluctant to commit to cosmetic dentistry because of cost concerns. While it is not covered by dental insurance in most cases, as your cosmetic dentist in Hackensack, NJ, we will gladly help you figure out your best course of action financially and which treatments make the most sense accordingly. Cosmetic services have varying price points, so it’s important to find the solution that best suits your grin as well as your wallet.
