February 22, 2009	Bonding The tooth enamel is gently etched to enhance adhesion before a dentist applies color-matched resin compound over a crooked, short, chipped, decayed or broken tooth. A special light is then used to harden and bond it to the tooth underneath.
February 22, 2009	Cosmetic Contouring In the economical aesthetics procedure, the dentist gently sands and shaves away small areas of the teeth. The procedure can help bring harmony to slightly uneven teeth, smooth ragged edges or bulges, soften pointy canines and even round square-angled teeth to create a more feminine smile in women.
February 22, 2009	Crowns Also called caps, crowns can be used in place of veneers to make a crooked smile appear straighter, to repair broken or damaged teeth or to cover a bridge or implant. The tooth surface is reduced, then covered with a custom cap in porcelain, porcelain bonded to metal, or another durable substance. Crowns are sometimes used side-by-side with veneers in a full-mouth restoration procedure.
February 22, 2009	Dental Implants Titanium metal root placed where tooth was previously. Bone forms an extremely solid and stable structure. Implants can hold a single crown, a bridge, an entire arch or even dentures. The ‘gold standard’ of dentistry.
February 22, 2009	E4D CAD/CAM Dentistry The use if a computer to scan the mouth and create a tooth. The design is then milled out of solid porcelain. Patients may have one appointment option. The strength of the porcelain is very high. Porcelain can mill crowns, inlays, onlays, and even veneers.
February 22, 2009	Veneers Natural-looking , strong and stain-resistant, wafer-thin porcelain veneers can be used to correct just one, or multiple teeth. Veneers can be used to correct crooked teeth or to improve the appearance of a discolored, worn or chipped smile. To create a perfect fit and adhesion, the dentist reduces the thickness of the teeth, then chemically etches the enamel before placing the veneers.
