Smile Enhancements
Cosmetic dentistry can be transformative to both your smile and your confidence!
In addition to improving the health and function of your teeth, we also pay close attention to the aesthetics of your smile. We want you to maintain great oral health but we also want you to have a beautiful smile and the confidence to smile often!
With our expertise, advanced technology and knowledge, we can help you visualize and attain the beautiful smile you want. Using one procedure, such as veneers, or perhaps a combination of procedures, we can transform your smile and help you have the confidence that comes with knowing your smile looks great!
Procedures used alone or in combination to create beautiful smiles include:
Porcelain Laminate Veneers
Veneers are a cosmetic treatment that can provide a dramatic smile makeover that mimics the look of natural dental enamel. Created to fit seamlessly with the contours of each natural tooth, porcelain veneers are the longest-lasting and most aesthetically-pleasing type of veneer. They are created to meet Dr. Youn's exact specifications using multiple thin layers of porcelain whose size, color, shape, and fit are fully customized to each patient.
Resin Bonding
Resin bondings are tooth colored fillings which can be utilized to enhance the shape or color of the tooth. In order to bond a tooth, composite material is added to the tooth structure to adjust the size, shape, or color of the existing tooth. It is relatively inexpensive and only requires one visit.
Teeth Whitening
Over time, teeth will naturally lose their brightness. Drinking coffee or tea, or using tobacco, as well as certain childhood medications can cause teeth to discolor or darken even faster than normal. Whitening, also known as bleaching, is the procedure used to whiten teeth and to brighten your smile.
Invisalign®
Teeth can be moved into proper position, to correct overbite, crowding and gaps. Orthodontic treatment is recommended to improve function, to prevent fracturing of teeth as a result of improper angulations of the teeth, to improve speech and to help you smile more confidently. Dr. Youn is certified in the orthodontic treatment via Invisalign®.
