Single-Visit Smile Makeovers from Your Arcadia Dentist

Almost everyone can pinpoint some aspect of their smile that they dislike. Maybe you have a dark spot on one tooth or yellow stains that age your appearance. Maybe you think that cosmetic dentistry is a luxury that only celebrities can afford. I’ve been practicing dentistry in the Arcadia area for over 25 years, and I’m here to tell you that almost everyone can benefit from a little conservative cosmetic dentistry. At our office, we even offer several procedures that can be completed in just one visit.

One-Visit Cosmetic Dentistry

Redesigning your smile doesn’t always mean an extensive time commitment or financial strain. Many patients are unaware that we can perform simple, economical procedures that can have a drastic impact on the overall appearance of a smile. In just one visit, I can often close gaps, repair chips, eliminate stains, and create a more uniform smile. Here are some of our most popular one-visit smile makeover procedures:

• Cosmetic Bonding – This treatment involves a tooth-colored composite resin that’s bonded to the teeth. I have over 27 years of experience working with bonding material, and I can add grooves, contours, and shading for a very lifelike appearance. Bonding can close gaps, repair chips, and cover stains in just one visit.
• In-Office Teeth Whitening – Whitening is a simple and effective way to instantly update your smile. We use Zoom! in the office to erase years’ worth of stains caused by tobacco, coffee, and the natural aging process. In about an hour, Zoom! can lighten teeth ten shades.
• Laser Gum Lifts – Using a special laser, I can remove excess gum tissue around teeth. This procedure alleviates “gummy smile” syndrome, so patients have a fuller, broader smile.

In addition to one-visit smile makeovers, I also recommend high-quality treatments, such as porcelain veneers and porcelain crowns. These procedures use the latest porcelain technology to completely transform a smile. Veneers and crowns can be placed in two visits, though as a perfectionist, I will work closely with you, for as long as it takes, to ensure the end result exceeds your expectations.
