Bridging the Gap
The goal of cosmetic dentistry is to give you a complete, beautiful, natural-looking smile. If this is the kind of smile you are looking for, you have come to the right place!
A number of cosmetic procedures exist to remedy your smile woes, but each procedure can have a different effect on a smile in need of some help. Some procedures are more invasive than others, so if you are looking for a minimally invasive smile fix, a dental bridge may be the procedure that will give you the smile you have been searching for.
Upgrade Your Old Fashioned Fillings
I’m Dr. Villani, one of the dentists at Brighton Family Dental Group, and I am proud to offer quality dental care to my patients. To do this, my team and I incorporate the latest and most advanced technological developments in the way we treat our patients.
I often see adult patients who have fillings they got when they were kids. I’m sure you know what I’m talking about: those metal, black/silvery looking fillings. Well, it seems like these fillings may not be as safe as dentists once thought. These traditional fillings are made from amalgam, which is a combination of silver, copper, and mercury, have been thought to be toxic.
Want a New Smile for the Holidays?
What does a smile makeover entail? It depends entirely on your unique needs and preferences. Schedule a consultation with me, Dr. Villani, or my associate, Dr. Kondrat. We’ll sit down and discuss your ideal smile, and we can talk about which procedures would achieve the results you want. Most commonly we suggest, custom porcelain veneers, teeth whitening, cosmetic bonding or recontouring, and white fillings and crowns. But rest assured, your treatment plan will be designed exclusively for you. There is no packaged solution in cosmetic dentistry. We aim to preserve your unique appearance, while giving you a more attractive overall image.
Get a Straight, Beautiful Smile without a Mouth Full of Metal
For many people, having a mouth full of metal is the way they remember their teenage years. Even if you wore braces when you were younger, it is likely that your teeth have shifted. No matter what your dental history is, if you look in the mirror and see crooked, widely spaced, or overlapping teeth, I, Dr. Thomas Villani, have a solution you will love.
For most adults, especially those in the professional world, wearing metal braces simply isn’t practical. Here at Brighton Family Dental Group, we are proud to offer you another option. Invisalign is a clear, removable aligner that allows you to get the result of traditional braces while maintaining a mature, natural appearance.
