Cosmetic dentistry

Cosmetic dentistry

You can look good and have a healthy smile. Cosmetic dentistry can correct crooked teeth, spaces between your teeth, stained or discolored teeth, chipped teeth, and broken or missing teeth. Dr. Matlaga and Dr. Simmons dental offices will create a customized treatment plan for you, based on your age, goals and financial comfort level.

Teeth whitening

Opalescence® Take Home Whitening Gels allow you to whiten your teeth at your convenience – in a safe, effective, and customized way.


Safe

Opalescence® Take Home Whitening Gels are available at Parkside Dental and we will supervise your treatment from initial consultation through completion. The gel won’t migrate to gums, and most formulations include Potassium Fluoride (PF), which helps improve oral health by strengthening enamel, decreasing sensitivity, and offering increased cavity prevention. If you’re unsure what all this means, our dental offices would love to tell you more.


Effective

Powerful, prescription-strength Opalescence® Take Home Whitening Gels are available with 10%, 10%PF, 15%PF, 20%PF, and 35%PF carbamide peroxide. Opalescence® Take Home Whitening Gels can provide results after just one night; though expect to see results in about a week.


Customized

Opalescence® Take Home Whitening Gels are delivered via customized bleaching tray. Your Parkside Dental dentist will create this tray from an alginate impression of your mouth; this customization is part of why Opalescence® Take Home Whitening Gels are so effective. You can further customize your experience by choosing from the five formulations and three flavors (mint, melon and regular).

Porcelain Veneers

Imagine a whiter, more brilliant smile! Porcelain veneers are a form of conservative cosmetic dentistry that can make a dramatic difference in the appearance of your teeth. If you have chipped teeth, crooked teeth, gaps in teeth or dull or stained teeth, veneers may be the perfect solution for you. Your dentist will skillfully bond and shape thin strips of porcelain to your teeth, creating a straight, brilliant smile that enhances your appearance and your self esteem.


Porcelain Crowns

You can erase years of wear and tear with porcelain crowns through dental services. Sometimes called “caps,” porcelain crowns are customized for you, covering broken, cracked or discolored teeth. Crowns are a durable, strong, long lasting method of enhancing both the look and functionality of your smile. After some preparation of the tooth or teeth that will receive the crown(s), your dentist will position a custom milled, lifelike porcelain crown over your damaged tooth, restoring and rejuvenating your oral health.



Porcelain Bridges

When teeth are missing, your smile undergoes significant changes. Missing teeth will cause you to chew differently, may cause mouth pain, and your remaining teeth work to compensate for the loss, gaps and spaces form to only make the situation worse. A porcelain bridge, custom designed by your doctor at Parkside Dental, keeps your smile aligned and your bite functional. Bridges are anchored to existing teeth or crowns on either side of the missing tooth. They are semi-permanent, meaning they can only be affixed or removed by a dentist and are a long-term restorative solution to your damaged smile.
