When you commit to a cosmetic dental makeover, you deserve a dazzling smile you’ll be proud to show off for years to come.
We have been putting new and long-lasting smiles on our patients’ faces for over 30 years. As the architects for your new smile, Dr. Pajek considers your cosmetic issues only after doing a thorough examination of your oral health (your teeth’s foundation) to make sure there are no hidden problems that could affect your new teeth over time.
Depending on your unique situation, they can change the size, shape, alignment and color of your teeth; close gaps; correct your bite; replace missing teeth and/or failed fillings and solve the most complex dental issues—all with an eye on making your smile beautiful.
Cosmetic Solutions That Are Just Right for You
If you have complex issues that require partial dentures or bridges, all replacement work will be done to match the rest of your healthy teeth. You can decide whether you want to enhance your own teeth with whitening, crowns or veneers before your replacement teeth are fabricated.
We treat damaged or discolored teeth with a range of options, depending on your situation and oral health:
Teeth Whitening:
Advances in cosmetic dentistry have made teeth whitening an easy way for patients to brighten their smiles. We offer in-office treatments, such as ZOOM whitening, as well as bleaching products you can use on your own, at home. We can discuss your options during your first consultation.
Crowns (Also Known as Caps):
A crown covers or “caps” a fractured or diseased tooth to restore its normal function and appearance. Crowns can be made of porcelain, porcelain fused to metal or all metal.
Veneers:
Porcelain veneers are thin shells of porcelain used to modify the shape and color of your teeth. They are extremely durable and resistant to staining, and match the texture of your existing teeth. However, if you are prone to grinding your teeth, we may recommend a crown for extra durability. Veneers are bonded to your existing teeth, Dr Pajek also offers composite resin veneers that can be done in one visit – that can be a great alternative in some patients.
Inlays and Onlays:
These pieces of porcelain or composite resin are bonded to (laid on) a damaged or misshapen area of tooth. They are like a filling but used to rebuild the shape of the tooth.
Cosmetic Reconstructions:
A cosmetic reconstruction is a procedure that involves the use of several cosmetic, restorative and other treatments with the goal of improving the overall quality of your smile. In the process, many of the treatments can also help to improve your oral health, chewing, speech and the overall function of your mouth.
