A smile makeover is a fully personalized treatment plan that can consist of several different dental treatments, all designed to work together to make your smile shine! Here are some of the most common treatments that Dr. Van Dyke or Dr. Garcia will consider for your smile makeover.
A veneer is a thin covering of porcelain placed on a tooth, lending a beautiful appearance that can form a key part of any smile makeover. Veneers can be placed on any surface of the tooth for either aesthetic reasons or to address functional changes. When placed on the front surfaces of the front teeth, they are typically used to change shape, color, close spaces, repair extensive decay and regain correct dimensions from wear or trauma. They can block the stains from dark teeth and can also be placed on the biting surfaces of back teeth (onlays) to change the bite, restore worn tooth structure and/or decrease sensitivity. They can also be placed on the inside surfaces of certain teeth to improve the way the upper and lower jaw functions. Veneers provide an effective means to restore the proper form and function of your teeth, and ultimately, your smile.
If dentures are the correct option for you, Dr. Van Dyke and Dr. Garcia have the skill set and attention to detail to create a set of dentures that look so natural that no one except you will ever know you wear them. Your custom denture can be comfortable and provide your face with support needed to give it a natural looking and more youthful appearance. If dentures are right for you, they can result in an incredibly effective smile makeover.
An additional process you may want to consider is the placement of implants under the dentures, which helps stabilize the dentures and provide a very effective chewing surface. With creative designs by our dentists, and a wide range of choices on how to attach the dentures to the implants, a smile makeover will not only allow you to be able to chew through hard and sticky foods, but also have the opportunity to uncover the roof of the mouth in the design, so you can regain the sense of texture and taste that traditional dentures have taken away.
Professional tooth whitening is an excellent means of brightening up a dull smile. A whiter smile can help you feel better about yourself, and help you make a better impression. Drinking cola, tea, coffee, and red wine, as well as smoking, can contribute to stained and darkened teeth. Non-professional procedures and clinically unproven teeth whitening systems often lead to unsatisfactory results; however professional whitening can help your smile look its best.
We offer a variety of smile makeover whitening procedures that are custom designed for your particular case, including Zoom!,™ as well as several different types of custom tray procedures designed to safely and effectively whiten your teeth. For those very difficult to lighten cases, or cases which have not achieved the expected results, Island Tower Dentistry has discovered the most powerful and effective method known to whiten those stubborn cases—the KOR™ Whitening System. Please consult with our dentists to determine the best technique for your particular condition.
The contour of the gum tissue that helps frame the smile is a critical part of defining what makes a terrific and bright smile. Dr. Van Dyke and Dr. Garcia are absolute artists in creating the proper form to the gums by using a laser to gently sculpt the tissue.
