Porcelain Veneers, Lumineers, Implants, Castlegar Cosmetic Dentists
Veneers and Implants,
technology came a long way.
Porcelain veneers are one of the most pleasing restorative procedures. Thin, custom-made laminates are permanently placed on your teeth. Veneers can be used to close gaps, resurface discolored teeth, replace worn surfaces and edges and straighten teeth. Typically, veneers cover the visible front part of the tooth and they wrap over the biting edge of the tooth, but you (or anyone else) won't even know they are there.
First you select the style of veneers you feel will best enhance your smile. Then a resin mock-up will be made. Your teeth will be prepared for the veneers and temporary veneers are placed. During your second appointment, the permanent veneers are created and placed.
No pain! A lot to gain!
Dental Implants
Unhappy Denture Wearers - let's talk technology. Technology most likely has changed since your original prosthetics were made and there are viable alternatives available for you. There have been advances in implants and the procedures used to place them that now allow patients who were once told they are not a candidate, to be a candidate!
Today, dental implants are a common procedure. Implants can used to replace teeth, support permanent bridges and missing teeth, or support full/partial dentures. With an X-ray and examination, we can help advise which new options you may have available to you.
Dentures secured by implants
Strategically placed implants are surgically inserted into the jaw bone that connect to your dentures and secure them firmly in your mouth. With today's modern implant technology we can secure teeth to the implants, keeping the dentures from moving or coming out entirely.
