Cosmetic Dentistry Q & A

Volterra Dental offers a variety of cosmetic treatments to improve your smile:

  • Invisalign: Invisalign® is a teeth-straightening method that involves a series of custom-made, near-invisible plastic aligner trays that fit over your teeth. The removable trays gently straighten and shift your teeth into alignment. Invisalign acts like braces, but the process is more comfortable and discrete.
  • Teeth Whitening: Professional teeth whitening at the Volterra Dental office can yield impressive results and is more effective than do-it-yourself methods because of a higher concentration of bleaching chemicals and the skill of a dental professional. The Volterra Dental group also provides the Zoom!® laser — an in-office teeth whitening procedure combining laser energy with hydrogen peroxide gel that can transform your teeth up to eight shades whiter.
  • Dental Implants: Dental implants are artificial tooth roots that securely hold your dental prosthesis, such as dentures or crowns, in place. The implant is surgically attached to your jaw bone.
  • Veneers: Volterra Dental offers quality veneers — thin porcelain sheets that cover the front surface of your tooth. Veneers work well for teeth that are stained or chipped.
  • Bridges: A bridge can replace a missing tooth or teeth. It works by bridging the gap between the teeth using a row of crowns that are connected together.
  • Crowns: Your dentist places dental crowns, or caps, on top of discolored, broken, or chipped teeth.

There are other cosmetic dentistry options available that your Volterra dentist can discuss with you at your consultation.
