EVERYONE WANTS A perfect smile, but stains, discoloration, wear, chips, misalignment, gaps, and other issues can get in the way of our smile goals. That’s where The Silverstrom Group comes in. We offer a variety of cosmetic dentistry services to our patients in and around Livingston, NJ so that they can feel confident when showing off their gorgeous smiles.
What Is Cosmetic Dentistry?
Cosmetic dentistry is dental treatment that focuses on improving the appearance of the teeth, but treatment options aren’t always limited to the smile; practices like ours also offer wrinkle reduction and filler treatments with Botox and Juvederm. When it comes to the teeth, there are several different approaches we can take, depending on the individual patient’s goals and needs.
Dazzle With Teeth Whitening
One of the simplest and easiest ways to improve your smile is with teeth whitening, which can be done in-office with a one-time visit where you get the benefit of our professional experience and facilities, or with custom take-home trays that we make for your teeth. What makes these options superior to over-the-counter whitening strips is that those aren’t designed to bring the whitening solution into contact with each surface of your teeth like custom trays, and they certainly won’t offer the precision of in-office treatment.
Beyond the Surface: Dental Veneers
For chipping or discoloration that can’t be fixed with simple whitening, veneers are a great cosmetic dentistry option. Dental veneers are custom-made, wafer-thin shells of porcelain or resin colored to match your teeth. We make room for them by removing about half a millimeter of enamel from each tooth’s surface, then bond them in place to change their color, shape, size, or length.
Repair Damaged Teeth With Dental Bonding
A simpler option than veneers is dental bonding, in which we apply a tooth-colored resin to a misshapen tooth or one that has been chipped, cracked, or damaged by decay and harden it using a special ultraviolet or laser light. We then trim, shape, and polish it to make sure it matches the rest of the smile. Bonding is a great alternative to silver fillings and it will blend in much better!
Straighten Your Smile with Invisalign
Sometimes the problem isn’t discoloration or damaged teeth; sometimes they’re just crooked. At The Silverstrom Group, we can dramatically improve a poorly aligned smile with Invisalign. Invisalign aligners are a great orthodontic treatment option for patients who want a discreet solution to their poorly aligned teeth. You can get the benefits of braces without being called a “brace-face.”
