Vaneers are thin porcelain facings that are bonded to the surface of teeth. They can be used to build up teeth that are broken, chipped or misaligned, Vaneers can also be used to mask stained teeth and to close unsightly gaps.
Porcelain vaneers are not only effective because the use of modern bonding techniques but also becausae they require a minimum of tooth reduction thus better retaining the integrity of the healthy tooth.

teeth whitening

Most psychologist agree that a first impression is an important aspect of establishing any relationship. A winning smile goes a long way in making the first impression a positive one. With the advent of modern dental techniques a dazzling smile is possible for everyone. We no longer have to put up with chipped, stained, or misaligned teeth. A perfect smile can improve your self-esteem and affect not only your professional life but also your personal relationships.

One of the procedures, now widely used is teeth whitening also known as bleaching.
This is an effective way of enhancing an already beautiful smile by lightening the shade of the teeth. There are two dentist-supervised methods that I would recommend.

The first is a home bleaching system that requires the application of a gel in a special trays, fabricated from accurate impression of your mouth.

The second method is performed in the office using a laser to activate bleaching material that achieves the same result in one simple visit.

A consultation with your dentist will determine the best method suited to help you obtain that dazzling smile you desire.
