Dental Implants
Implant dentistry is the most trusted tooth replacement procedure. This is because implants are permanent and are securely attached to the jawbone for a base that is as solid as a natural tooth root. At Middlebury Smiles, we provide the restoration for this procedure. This means that we design beautiful, natural-looking crowns that are attached to the top of the implant. Our dentists take the time to make impressions and match the crown perfectly with the surrounding teeth for a flawless smile that does not look fake but perfectly natural.
Inlays & Onlays
Inlays and onlays are restorative procedures that are similar to dental crowns. However, unlike a crown, which surrounds the entire natural tooth, inlays and onlays only cover and protect a small portion of the outer tooth. These procedures are mainly needed when a small portion of the tooth is damaged by decay, accidents, or worn down by bruxism. Just like a dental crown, though, inlays and onlays are designed to match the natural tooth perfectly.
Dental Crowns
Dental crowns are used for many different reasons. They can be used in implant dentistry, to repair a broken or weak tooth, to restore a tooth after root canal treatment, or they can be used in dental bridges. Whatever the case may be, our dentists are experienced at matching the exact shape and shade of the surrounding teeth to provide a natural smile. We provide dental crowns in our area that are beautiful and long lasting.
Root Canal Treatments
When a patient undergoes this treatment, it means that they have been suffering from a badly decayed tooth. Often, the decay has reached deep into the inner layer of the tooth and this can result in severe pain. Our treatment itself, however, is relatively painless because we use anesthesia for your comfort. We also guarantee short healing times with our quality root canal treatments.
Cosmetic Dentistry
Our dentists and staff also offer our patients cosmetic dentistry procedures in Middlebury, CT. This area of dentistry goes beyond just correcting the function, o your teeth and actually works on improving the appearance of your smile. However, we believe that it is important to realize that the majority of our cosmetic dental solutions are not simply esthetic in nature; they can also help improve the function of your teeth. For example, our veneers can actually work to correct and improve a patient’s bite.
When you look good, we know that your self-confidence and social interactions improve and we believe this also improves your quality of life. We’ve included several of our popular dental cosmetic treatments below. For a complete list of our cosmetic procedures, click here or call our office today.
Teeth whitening
Teeth whitening or teeth bleaching services are often the easiest and least expensive ways to boost your smile’s appearance. Removing deep-set stains that have accumulated over the years can make you look younger, create a warmer smile, and convey a sense of success and intelligence. We offer both in-office and take home Opalescence whitening procedures.
Veneers
Veneers offer a dramatic makeover for your smile. These thin shells are placed over the natural tooth to hide any number of dental flaws including gapped, broken, chipped, stained, or misshapen teeth. Our veneers are custom designed to match the patient’s desired results and to provide a natural looking smile.
Smile Makeovers
Our dentists often have patients who are unhappy with the overall look of their smile. Our smile makeover procedure allows patients to completely restructure their smile and make major cosmetic changes. Our dentists work with the patient to combine multiple cosmetic procedures that will create the perfect smile for each patient.
