No two smile makeovers are the same. At the office of Snikeris Family Dentistry your smile makeover is customized to fit your goals. It may include basic teeth whitening or cosmetic reconstruction. Your options include: in-office teeth whitening with a new state-of-the-are process, Zoom!, professional take-home whitening trays, porcelain veneers, tooth-colored fillings, porcelain crowns, and dental implants. Depending on your goals, your smile makeover may include one of these options or a selection of treatments over time.

When you meet with your dental care provider here at Snikeris Family Dentistry, we will explain the pros and cons of each of your options and even show you how your smile can be remodeled in phases.

While you may be tempted into purchasing a generic teeth whitening kit at the store, it isn’t the same as what your dentist uses. Over-the-counter whitening kits contain a milder bleaching agent that generally only gets rid of surface stains.

When you have your teeth professionally whitened, your dentist uses stronger solutions reaching the deeper layers of your teeth, so bleaching occurs from the inside out. Professional teeth whitening is also beneficial because it minimizes irritating chemical exposure to sensitive gums, cheeks, and lips, whitens your smile by several shades during a single visit, and decreases your risk of tooth sensitivity. Plus, because your dentist applies the whitening agent tooth by tooth, your results are more even.

Dental veneers are one of the quickest and most effective ways to beautify your smile. These wafer-thin porcelain covers are designed to fit right on top of your teeth, so all those imperfections can become a thing of your past. You should consider getting veneers if you have: small gaps, slightly crooked teeth, yellow or discolored teeth, or minor cracks, chips, or fractures.

Veneers are individually designed to match the size and shape of your teeth, so your new smile is entirely natural-looking (and feeling).

Have you always wanted to straighten your smile but don’t want to go through the long process of traditional braces? The team at Snikeris Family Dentistry is here to help! Invisalign is an esthetic, modern, comfortable, and fast way to straighten your teeth. Invisalign is a series of clear custom trays that put gentle pressure on your teeth to make them straight again. These trays are removable so you can take them out when you need to and reinsert them to continue the straightening process. Call our office if you are interested in beginning your smile transformation! We can’t wait to give you the smile of your dreams!

Dental bonding is a tooth-colored composite resin material that resembles the look and feel of your natural tooth. You may need dental bonding for restorative or cosmetic purposes, such as filling in an opening after a cavity is removed, repairing a chipped or cracked tooth, covering severe tooth discoloration, filling in gaps between teeth, and even correcting misshapen teeth.
