Cosmetic dentistry is a passion, an emotion, and a desire that is expressed by a patient and is brought to life by a dental team that shares and understands your wishes. Technically, cosmetic dentistry is the creation of natural-looking restorations that blend into or improve the appearance of your teeth and smile.

Invisalign
If you are dissatisfied with your smile due to crooked or misaligned teeth, Invisalign may be the solution. Invisalign is an orthodontic treatment without the use of metal. The Invisalign system uses invisible clear aligners to straighten your teeth. These aligners are custom made for each patient to precisely fit your teeth. These are comfortable, removable, and easy to clean. You don’t even notice you are wearing them, and you may remove them from your mouth while eating.
Smile Makeover
For someone who is unhappy or ashamed of their smile, we may suggest a smile makeover to transform it. When we meet some patients, they may be so unhappy with their smile that they limit their social interactions. We have seen this many times. With all the advances and options available in dentistry today, there is no reason not to smile proudly. Depending on your specific situation, there are many dental services that can be used to change what your smile looks like. A smile makeover uses various cosmetic and restorative dental treatments including veneers, implants, fillings, and/or teeth whitening. Our goal is to give you a beautiful, luminous smile that looks natural and allows you to feel rejuvenated and happy.
Implant Supported Dentures
Implant supported dentures is a method of tooth replacement that combines the convenience of full dentures and the security of dental implants that restores your smile. There are many benefits to implant supported dentures including bone preservation and preservation of your facial structure, ability to chew, and improvement to your speech. No adhesive is ever necessary; teeth are not slipping in and out and your speech is clearer. The implants anchor, stabilize and retain the denture which gives you biting and chewing ability. You can eat in restaurants with complete confidence.

Dental Implants
For missing teeth, dental implants are clearly the best option for restoring your smile. An implant is an artificial tooth that is placed into the jawbone to function and look like a natural tooth. Dental implants are a permanent solution for missing teeth where patients can receive all the benefits of natural teeth, along with a luminous, beautiful smile.
Dental Bridges
While not as long lasting as implants, dental bridges provide a good tooth replacement option for our patients. You may choose to replace your teeth with a bridge in order to prevent tooth movement, restore chewing and biting, help you speak clearer, distribute your bite across various teeth, and maintain jawbone health. If you are diligent about your dental hygiene and your professional exams and cleanings with Dr. Slepchik, your bridge should last from 10-15 years.
