Veneers in Edmonds, WA

There’s no reason to put up with gaps in your teeth or with teeth that are stained, badly shaped or crooked. Today a veneer placed on top of your teeth can correct nature’s mistake or the results of an injury and help you have a beautiful smile that absolutely dazzles.

Veneers (sometimes called porcelain veneers or dental porcelain laminates) are wafer-thin, custom-made shells of tooth-colored materials designed to cover the front surface of teeth to improve your appearance. These shells are bonded to the front of the teeth changing their color, shape, size, or length.

What Types of Problems Do Dental Veneers Fix?

  • Teeth that are discolored — either because of root canal treatment, stains from tetracycline or other drugs, excessive fluoride or other causes, or the presence of large resin fillings that have discolored the tooth

  • Teeth that are worn down

  • Teeth that are chipped or broken

  • Teeth that are misaligned, uneven, or irregularly shaped (for example, have craters or bulges in them)

  • Teeth with gaps between them (to close the space between these teeth)

What Are the Advantages of Dental Veneers?

  • They provide a natural tooth appearance.

  • Gum tissue tolerates porcelain well.

  • Porcelain veneers are stain resistant.

  • The color of a porcelain veneer can be selected such that it makes dark teeth appear whiter.

  • Veneers offer a conservative approach to changing a tooth’s color and shape. Veneers generally don’t require the extensive shaping prior to the procedure that crowns do yet offer a stronger, more aesthetic alternative.

Gum Reshaping in Edmonds, WA

If your gums rest too low or too high on your teeth (“gummy smile”) and you are unhappy with your smile, you may be a candidate for gum contouring surgery. Also called gum reshaping or tissue sculpting, this cosmetic dental procedure can even out an uneven gum line and give you a smile you can be proud of.

What Causes Uneven Gums?

A number of things can cause your gums to be too low or too high. Gums that cover a large portion of your teeth can make your teeth look small. This may be the result of genetics, a particular health problem, or taking certain prescription drugs.

Gums that are too high and make your teeth appear long are often caused by gum recession, a condition in which gum tissue pulls back from a tooth and exposes the tooth’s root. Not only can gum recession make your teeth look long, it can lead to serious dental problems such as decay and tooth loss. Gum recession may also be a sign of the deterioration of the supporting structures of the teeth (gums and bone) known as periodontal disease.

Bonding in Edmonds, WA

Dental bonding is a procedure in which a tooth-colored resin material is applied and hardened with a special light, which ultimately “bonds” the material to the tooth to restore or improve person’s smile.

For What Conditions Is Dental Bonding Considered?

  • To repair decayed teeth (composite resins are used to fill cavities)

  • To repair chipped or cracked teeth

  • To improve the appearance of discolored teeth

  • To close spaces between teeth

  • To make teeth look longer

  • To change the shape of teeth

  • As a cosmetic alternative to amalgam fillings

  • To protect a portion of the tooth’s root that has been exposed when gums recede
