Full Mouth Rehabilitation
Full Mouth restoration involves restoring the teeth, bite, and muscles back to a natural looking and youthful feeling condition, thereby improving self-esteem. Full mouth restoration may be the answer to many problems, such as sore jaw muscles and recurring headaches.
Zoom II Whitening (in office)
Our office specialize in the latest, most effective tooth whitening procedure available - the Zoom! II In-Office Whitening System. Safe, fast and convenient, Zoom! II Uses a combination of formulated lighting and hydrogen peroxide based bleach to whiten teeth, typically by six to ten shades, in one brief office visit. With simple, regular home touch-ups and careful maintenance, a beautiful Zoom! II Smile can last indefinitely.
Zoom! II Whitening Gel is carefully applied to the enamel (the tooth's protective coating) and heated by a special Zoom! II Whitening Lamp. The gel breaks itself down and then releases oxygen into the teeth's dentin (the main, hard part of the tooth ) and enamel. The oxygen bleaches away stains without affecting the structure of the teeth. After three applications, the gel is removed, and a five-minute fluoride treatment is administered. The end result is brighter, whiter teeth that are essentially free of coffee, tea, soft drink, wine, or tobacco stains.
Although many patients who do try Zoom! II Have no side effects, some might experience tooth sensitivity, discomfort from the heat lamp, or mild tingling sensations. Zoom! II In-Office Whitening System is safe for most patients, although those who nurse, are pregnant, take prescription or homeopathic light-sensitive drugs, have skin cancer, or receive chemotherapy should not undergo the procedure.
Teeth Whitening (take home)
With take home teeth whitening, the tray is usually worn nightly, for 2-3 weeks, until you reach the result. Even subtle changes in shading can make someone look years younger. Several factors can contribute to the darkening of teeth, including the effects of age, certain foods and drinks, smoking, and medications.
