Invisalign® Clear Braces

Straightening your smile doesn’t have to require a mouthful of metal brackets and wires. Invisalign is a much more aesthetically pleasing orthodontic service that relies on an aligner system instead for gradual tooth movement. The clear aligners are extremely subtle when worn, and their removable nature also means that patients can continue to enjoy their favorite foods and practice oral hygiene at home like normal.

Porcelain Veneers

Porcelain veneers are custom-made, thin porcelain shells that can restore a tooth to its natural beauty. The tooth may have minor damage due to cracking, damage, or stains, but veneers can be designed to make them all disappear behind a flawlessly white smile. They’re actually the secret behind many of Hollywood’s most attractive smiles!

Metal-Free Dental Restorations

Rebuilding damaged, decayed, and hurting teeth doesn’t have to lead to a sacrifice in your smile’s cosmetic quality! With metal-free materials, our dentists here in Gorham are able to create seamlessly attractive and durable additions that blend right in with a person’s confident appearance. They’re also 100% biocompatible, which means that they won’t react strongly to temperature changes and are even safe for patients who’ve experienced allergies to common dental metals in the past.
Dental Bonding

Sometimes, patients don’t need a full-blown smile makeover – instead, they just have one small problem area that they badly want to correct, such as a thin gap between two teeth or a chip in the enamel. With direct bonding, it’s very simple to address these concerns subtly and quickly. One of our dentists will apply a tooth-colored composite resin to the area in question and sculpt it into place so that it seems like just another natural part of the smile. In most cases, this procedure will only require one appointment.

Teeth Whitening

Over the years, even healthy teeth can become dull or discolored. If you’re ready to give your appearance a new boost of brightness, talk to the Morgan-Hill Dental Care team about our professional teeth whitening solutions. We offer both fast in-office treatment and high-grade take-home kits so that our patients can improve their smiles in whatever way works best for them.

Gum Recontouring

In many cases, the teeth aren’t actually to blame if a patient is unhappy with their smile – it could be the gum tissue’s fault instead! If the natural gum line is too excessive or unbalanced, our dentists can aesthetically recontour its appearance with a state-of-the-art soft tissue laser. This modern procedure is highly comfortable and conservative. In addition to the clear cosmetic benefits, it may also prove useful in restorative situations – for example, if a patient needs a new dental crown but not enough of the tooth structure is accessible above the gum line.
Digital Imaging

Pursuing the cosmetic smile makeover of your dreams can oftentimes feel intimidating – what if you invest all of this time and money and don’t even like the end result? At Morgan-Hill Dental Care, we want to help you feel 100% confident about your brighter future; that’s why we use digital imaging to show you a beautiful sneak peek. Our dentists will take a photo of your current smile and carefully adjust the image to reflect the changes brought on by certain services, making it much easier to decide which treatment plan best fits your personal vision.
Botox & Juvederm

So you’ve finally achieved your ideal smile with cosmetic dentistry…but what about the facial skin that surrounds it? If you’re feeling frustrated by wrinkles, fine lines, and other like-minded flaws, talk to our dentists about the possibility of receiving Botox or Juvéderm injections. These in-office procedures take less than an hour, and they can easily take years off of your appearance by either preventing unnecessary muscles from contracting or filling the space beneath sagging skin.

Cosmetic Dentistry FAQs
Now you know all about the ways our cosmetic dentist in Gorham can brighten, straighten, and otherwise perfect your smile. If you’re ready to schedule your initial consultation, then don’t hesitate to get in touch with our team. However, if you want to do a bit more research before contacting us, that’s okay too! To make finding the answers you are looking for as seamless as possible, we’ve responded to some of the most frequently asked questions below!
How Long Does Cosmetic Dentistry Take?
Your smile transformation can take anywhere from a single appointment to a full year – it depends entirely on the cosmetic treatment you select. For example, if you are struggling with pigmented discoloration, then in-office teeth whitening can lighten your smile up to eight shades in just one appointment. If you are interested in addressing the size, shape, and shade of your teeth with veneers, then the process requires at least two appointments, which are typically spread out over the course of a couple of weeks. Lastly, addressing crooked or spaced-out teeth with Invisalign takes 12 months on average.
Is Cosmetic Dentistry Covered by Dental Insurance?
Usually, no. Since cosmetic dentistry isn’t considered medically necessary, treatments like teeth whitening and dental bonding typically aren’t included in dental plans. With that being said, it’s always a good idea to double-check, especially on services that address the look and function of your teeth, like metal-free restorations. We also have payment plans and periodic specials to ensure your treatment fits into your monthly budget. Don’t hesitate to ask us how we can help you make your care affordable!
Am I a Candidate for Cosmetic Dentistry?
Thanks to advancements in technology and the field of dentistry, nearly everyone is a candidate for cosmetic dentistry. The best way to find out if you are is by scheduling an initial consultation with our dentist in Gorham. This one-on-one appointment allows our team to better understand your dental needs and smile goals. If your oral health is in good condition, then we will move forward with the necessary steps to make your dream smile a reality. If an untreated dental issue is present, like severe decay, we can still help! We will just incorporate the appropriate restorative service into your treatment plan.
How Do I Know Which Cosmetic Dentistry Treatment Is Right for Me?
If your confidence has plummeted because of stubborn stains, unsightly chips, and other dental flaws, then there is no time like the present to talk to our cosmetic dentist. After learning about the details that make up your dream smile and the imperfections you’d like to address, they can provide you with a few recommendations, discuss the pros of each, and help you make an informed decision on which is best for you.
