Porcelain Veneers
We can use porcelain veneers to conceal a variety of dental imperfections, from chips and cracks to stains and slight misalignments. These ultrathin shells of porcelain are bonded to the front surface of a tooth and look extremely natural.

Dental Crowns
When a tooth becomes broken, worn down, or discolored, a dental crown can restore its appearance. Dental crowns cover the entire surface of a tooth, protecting it from further damage.
To place a dental crown, Dr. Downey will first examine the existing tooth and remove any decay before making an impression of the area. This impression will be used to craft a crown that is customized to fit the prepared tooth. When your crown is ready, we will bond it to the tooth, where it will remain in place for years with proper maintenance.
Depending on your needs, we can either produce your unique crown in our lab or use our CEREC machine to create a beautiful, durable crown right here in our own office! Either way, we will restore your smile and protect your tooth for years to come.
In addition to the cosmetic uses for dental crowns, they can also be used to restore and protect damaged teeth. You can learn more about the restorative benefits of dental crowns by visiting our restorative dentistry page.

Dental Bonding
Dental bonding is a simple cosmetic dentistry procedure that can be performed to repair teeth that are chipped, cracked, or decayed.
Dr. Downey will begin the dental bonding procedure by using a shade guide to determine the precise color of your teeth. He will then apply the bonding material — a color-matched composite resin — to your tooth. This resin is smoothed down and molded over the tooth. A high-intensity light is used to harden the resin, which is then shaped and polished to match the texture and contours of your natural teeth.
Dental Bridges
Dental bridges can restore the smiles of those who are missing teeth. Dental bridges are composed of a replacement tooth or teeth supported by two dental crowns, which are attached to the remaining natural teeth on either side of a gap.
Dr. Downey will first prepare each tooth adjacent to the gap and make impressions of the teeth to use in constructing the crowns. A temporary bridge is placed to protect the teeth until the permanent bridge is made. Before cementing the bridge to your teeth, Dr. Downey will check and adjust the bridge so that it fits properly and appears natural.
In addition to addressing the obvious cosmetic issues associated with missing teeth, dental bridges can also help correct speaking and chewing problems. Visit our restorative dentistry page to learn more about how dental bridges can restore function to your mouth.
