Dental Implants Can Change Your Smile!
This is a great example of how dental implants can change someone's smile. Our patient lost 2 teeth and was a great candidate for dental implants. Over the course of a few months, the teeth were restored to their natural beauty. The advantage of dental implants is that they look and feel like your own teeth, you can floss easily between the teeth, and no neighboring teeth were damaged (which would be needed if a bridge were placed instead).

KoR Whitening is Amazing!
We recently adopted the KoR Whitening System into our practice and have been amazed with the results. Our patient had internal staining caused by tetracycline use while the enamel of the teeth was developing (as a child). Instead of a smile makeover with veneer or crowns, our patient was able to achieve whiter, brighter teeth using the KoR Whitening protocol. The results speak for themselves.
