Veneers

Have you ever wished you had better-looking teeth without all the hassle of braces (orthodontics) or crowns (caps)? NOW YOU CAN! Porcelain veneers are the answer for instant orthodontics to straighten smiles, close spaces, reshape, and accomplish minor realignment of your teeth. You can even have that "Hollywood" Smile you've always wanted.

Veneers can brighten teeth, hide discoloration, and improve your appearance. Requiring little or no anesthesia, veneers are strong and stain resistant. They have a "life-like" appearance with the strength, beauty and durability only porcelain restorations can afford. Veneers have several advantages over crowns (caps):

• - There is no "dark line" that is sometimes seen with older front caps.
• - They transmit light better and, therefore, have a more translucent appearance giving a natural, aesthetic look.
• - Veneers do not require the massive grinding of tooth structure that caps do, yet they accomplish a lifelike aesthetic result.

How is it done?

After a thorough discussion with Dr. Goduco to establish just what you wish to accomplish AND what can or cannot be done, your first appointment usually involves some minor contouring of the front teeth and taking an impression of the teeth. Next, the veneers are tried on, and if satisfactory, they are bonded in place. A follow-up visit is made in a week. The results are instant and spectacular! Many times, we combine bleaching with porcelain veneers to make that perfect smile. If some teeth are already badly broken down, we can place new, all-porcelain crowns combined with veneering and other cosmetic techniques.

Implant Dentistry

What are Dental Implants and how do they work?
A dental implant is an artificial tooth placed into your jaw to replace a single tooth, multiple teeth or to hold a replacement crown or bridge in place. Dental implant restorations are so natural looking and feeling that you may forget you ever lost a tooth. Dental implants can be the best solution to the problem of missing teeth. Since dental implants integrate into the structure of your bone, they can prevent bone loss and gum recession that often accompanies bridgework and dentures. No one will ever know that you have a replacement tooth.

Some of the benefits are:

• - Cost-Effective Because only one tooth is usually replaced, dental implant tooth replacement can actually cost less than traditional bridgework.
• - Tooth-saving Dental implants do not sacrifice the quality of your adjacent teeth because neighboring teeth are not altered to support the implant. Your own teeth are left untouched, a significant long-term benefit to your oral health!
  - Reliable The success rate for dental implants is highly predictable. They are considered an excellent option for tooth replacement.
