Below, you can learn about some of the treatments we use every day to give people the smile of their dreams.

How to Choose Your Cosmetic Dentist

When choosing a cosmetic dentist to perform your treatments, it’s important that you recognize that just about any dentist can call themselves a cosmetic dentist without having any qualifications or certifications that prove their abilities or knowledge. That’s why it’s essential that you keep these following points in mind as you choose a cosmetic dentist:

  • Ask them about their previous dental work with other patients.
  • See if they belong to any organizations dedicated to staying updated on cosmetic dental treatments and techniques, such as the American Academy of Cosmetic Dentistry.
  • See if the dentist is actually willing to listen to all of your needs, rather than assume you need a specific treatment that you didn’t mention.
  • Do they have the specific treatments that you’re looking for? Are their options varied? Do you find yourself settling for treatments you weren’t initially trying to have completed?
  • Will they be able to complete your smile makeover within your schedule? Do they have multiple vacations planned that prevent you from getting it done quickly?

Invisalign® Clear Braces

Sick and tired of looking at your crooked teeth? Want to get them straightened but can’t imagine facing the world with metal braces? With Invisalign, you don’t have to! This system uses clear plastic aligner trays to give you the perfect smile you want and help you look great while doing it. It’s sleek, it’s simple, and you can always take the trays out when it’s time to eat or brush. More and more people are choosing Invisalign because of its look and convenience, and it’s easy to see why.

Porcelain Veneers

Porcelain veneers are one of the most comprehensive cosmetic treatments available today. With just one simple treatment, we can:

  • Instantly whiten your teeth
  • Fix chips and cracks
  • Close obvious gaps
  • Make teeth appear straighter

It’s the best way to enhance a smile that has multiple cosmetic flaws. Each set of porcelain veneers is custom-made, so they can provide everything from a minor touch-up to a complete smile makeover—it’s completely up to you.

Metal-Free Restorations

If you damage one of your front teeth, we know it requires extra special care. The appearance of your smile is vital, and we take it very seriously. For this kind of situation, we will only use natural-looking, metal-free restorations such as crowns, inlays, and onlays.

These are completely made out of color-matched dental ceramic, which will allow us to help your restored tooth look just like it did before. Plus, since they are metal-free, you won’t have to deal with any lasting sensitivity to hot or cold.

Teeth Whitening

Is your smile looking a little dull and yellow lately? Do you have persistent stains that make you hesitate when you smile? Thanks to our professional teeth whitening treatments, we can turn the clock back on your smile and make it shine brighter than ever.

You can either have a complete treatment performed in our office that only takes an hour, or we can give you a customized take-home kit to whiten at your own pace. Both treatments are safe, effective, and provide much better results than anything you can buy at the store today.

Gum Recontouring/Crown Lengthening

Sometimes, the reason a smile might not look its best isn’t because of the teeth, but the gums! An excess of gum tissue can create an unbalanced look and even make the teeth appear short and stubby. We can remedy this using a quick procedure called gum recontouring/crown lengthening. Utilizing a soft tissue laser, we can precisely remove any unwanted gum tissue to reveal more of your beautiful teeth. We’ll help you get that perfectly proportioned look.

Smile Makeovers

Our practice understands that sometimes multiple treatments are needed to address several dental issues at a time. Of course, you shouldn’t be expected to build this treatment plan on your own. That’s why Dr. Krell, an experienced cosmetic dentist, is more than prepared to help you determine the best treatments going forward. Whether you need to have multiple restorations or veneers placed, several rounds of teeth whitening performed, or gum recontouring to make more of your smile visible, you can get it done at his office. If you want to address multiple imperfections in your smile, you’re likely the perfect candidate for a smile makeover!
