Fully participate in creating your new smile with before and after photos. And thanks to the advances in modern cosmetic dentistry, the treatments are quick, painless and surprisingly affordable.
Teeth whitening is the simplest and fastest way to brighten your smile. The process uses a bleaching method and targets the natural color of tooth enamel and brightens the enamel to create a whiter smile.
Veneers are thin, semi-translucent “shell” typically attached to your front teeth. Veneers are customized from porcelain material and permanently bonded to your teeth. Veneers are a great alternative to otherwise more invasive dental procedures to improve the appearance of your smile.
ClearCorrect is an orthodontic alternative to braces design to straighten crooked teeth. A series of custom ClearCorrect aligners or plastic trays are prescribed based on each patient’s needs.
A crown (cap) is a restoration that is placed on teeth that have lost a lot of their structure. There are various types of crowns, ranging from full porcelain to full metal crowns. We will explain the advantages and disadvantages of each kind to you before making your crown.
A composite (tooth colored) filling is used to repair a tooth that is affected by decay, cracks, fractures, etc. The decayed or affected portion of the tooth will be removed and then filled with a composite material that matches your tooth color. There are many types of filling materials available, each with their own advantages and disadvantages. Composite fillings are the most widely used today.
Our in-office laboratory expedites the process of creating crowns and appliances, allowing us to serve you in a more efficient manner. Fred (our lab tech) has been working with Dr. Norm Saager in our in-house dental lab since the early 90’s. Very few offices have an in-house dental lab and lab tech; allowing for the best match and quality of your care.
