Cosmetic dentistry is one the fastest growing areas in the dental profession. Everyone deserves a beautiful, bright smile that will boost their self-esteem and self-confidence. At the practice of Dr. Sandra Hess, she offers a variety of cosmetic procedures, all with the goal of creating that special smile for her special patients.
Dr. Hess has more than two decades of experience and is well qualified to perform all of the cosmetic procedures that are offered. Whether it’s whiter, straighter, or stronger teeth, Dr. Hess can offer a solution to meet your needs. Read on to learn more about some of the specific procedures she offers.
Teeth Whitening
Through a simple teeth whitening treatment, Dr Hess can help you achieve a bright gleaming smile that will provide you with added confidence. She offers the most technologically advanced in-office system available, ZOOM!® Chairside teeth whitening. Zoom!® is the teeth whitening system featured on the popular television show Extreme Makeover. Dr. Hess also offers the take-home version of this whitening system called the Zoom!® Weekender. Both systems have been proven to produce excellent results, and patients are very pleased with whichever system they choose. Contact Dr. Hess today to learn more about advanced teeth whitening.
Porcelain Veneers
Porcelain veneers are yet another way to change your smile to the bright, gleaming, attractive smile that you have always wanted. Porcelain veneers are customized to your teeth to achieve the outstanding results that you expect. Dr. Hess can use porcelain veneers to hide permanently stained teeth, close spaces, correct misalignment, restore broken or chipped teeth, and other cosmetic flaws. Because veneers are crafted from the highest quality porcelain available, they have an extremely natural looking appearance. Porcelain veneers are securely bonded to the front surfaces of the teeth, which provides lasting strength. If you would like to improve the appearance of your smile, porcelain veneers can help you achieve the smile of your dreams.
Porcelain Crowns
Crowns are permanent, all-porcelain coverings that fit over your natural tooth to restore health and strength. They are custom matched to your natural tooth color, which helps improve both the appearance of your smile and your dental health. Crowns can be used to restore damaged or decayed teeth, create a whiter smile, and to reshape or realign teeth. Because porcelain crowns are bonded to your natural tooth structure, they are a strong and long-lasting restoration. Contact us today for more information about enhancing the appearance and function of your smile with porcelain crowns.
Cosmetic Bonding
Cosmetic bonding is a simple way to restore chipped or fractured teeth, and fill in spaces between teeth. Bonding utilizes a natural looking, tooth colored material that is applied to the tooth and then hardened upon exposure to a curing light. Bonding material is available in a wide range of tooth colored shades, which allows us to match the shade of your teeth exactly. Cosmetic bonding is an extremely effective and relatively simple smile enhancement procedure that can be completed in one appointment. Contact the practice of Dr. Sandra Hess for more information about cosmetic bonding to improve your smile quickly and easily.
Tooth-Colored Fillings
Tooth-colored fillings provide lasting strength and aesthetics that older "silver" fillings are unable to achieve. Dr. Hess uses this natural looking, mercury-free material exclusively to restore her patients teeth to their proper form and function. After the material is applied to the tooth and allowed to set, the filling is practically undetectable. Unfortunately, many of the teeth that Dr. Hess has restored with porcelain crowns had been treated in the past with "silver" fillings that have since failed and caused additional dental complications. Contact Dr. Hess today for more information about repairing cavities with tooth-colored fillings.
Dental Implant Restoration
Dental implants are a state-of-the-art way to replace missing teeth. Dr. Hess works very closely with excellent oral surgeons in the area who are able to place the implant portion of the restoration. She, in close communication with the surgeons, will place the implant secured crown or dentures after the implant has healed to restore function and beauty to your smile. How wonderful would it be to be able to "snap" a denture into place and to eat like you have all of your natural teeth again? This can be accomplished with an implant supported denture. Contact our office today for more information about replacing teeth with dental implants or implant supported dentures.
