PROCEDURES
TOUCH-UPS
Yellow or brown stains, white spots, asymmetrical gum contours and uneven edges can disfigure your smile. Simple corrective techniques can bring dramatic results immediately. All of the following procedures can be performed in the office in one or two visits.
Jagged tooth edges can be recontoured and polished in one.
Asymmetrical soft tissue contours can be corrected in a simple office visit with minimal local anesthetic.
Yellow or brown stains can be reduced by a simple "whitening" process which you can do at home. Your dentist custom molds a flexible plastic tray to fit your teeth. You place a few drops of prescribed dental whitening solution in the tray and wear it six to eight hours per night for six to eight night. The procedure has proven to be safe and the results and dramatic.
Dark and super-white spots can be reduced in one office visit with an acidic-micro-abrasion scrub.
"Touch-up" cosmetic dental procedures are techniques which give you the biggest "bang for your buck" these procedures are proven to be simple, safe, quick and non-invasive. They are inexpensive and the results are immediate, dramatic, and long lasting.

Anterior soft-tissue recon tour is a minimal procedure accomplished in a single visit with laser and/or electro-surgery techniques the results are dramatic and predictably last a life time.
