Whitening & Cosmetic
Cosmetic dentistry pertains to solutions and techniques that change the appearance of your teeth although not specifically required due to tooth decay, damage or loss.
Whitening your teeth is a great way to make your smile look younger and more attractive. Some discoloration of the teeth as we age is natural. However, anyone who drinks dark sodas, coffee, or tea, or uses tobacco products, will find that their teeth will become stained over time. We offer whitening solutions with BriteSmileŽ products, including in-office treatments for almost instant results, and at home kits that are applied while you sleep.
Other cosmetics include crowns, caps and veneers. These solutions are more involved than whitening, but the results are also more dramatic. It is best to consult with Dr. Gallagher and his staff for the specifics about these techniques.
The images below show the technique of correcting a chip in the front teeth. The correction gives the patient a natural smile again. Notice that not only is the gap between the teeth corrected, but the bottom edges of both front teeth are straightened.
