Cosmetic Dentistry
A bright, healthy smile says so much. A healthy smile
shows you have a healthy attitude about yourself. Your
first smile and greeting are etched in the minds of people
you meet and can form the foundation of your ongoing
personal and professional relationships. If you are
interested in creating a great first impression every time,
you've probably polished your greeting, but have you
done the same for your smile?
With advances in cosmetic dentistry, you can have a
perfect smile in just a few weeks. The contour, color and
alignment of your teeth can be changed by such
cosmetic techniques as bleaching, bonding, veneers,
tooth colored fillings, cosmetic crowns and inlays.
Cosmetic dentistry provides new choices that will improve
your dental health and retain a youthful, natural looking
smile.
Tooth Whitening (Bleaching) is one of the most
requested, simplest and least costly cosmetic treatments
available in cosmetic dentistry. Tooth whitening is used to
remove stains and improve the overall appearance of
your teeth.
There are a few different treatment options we offer. The
easiest and fastest is chairside power whitening in one
hour. We use Opalescence BOOST. Our office also
offers ZOOM! as seen on CBS's Extreme Makeover. You
may also use a take-home whitening system that uses
custom made trays and whitening gel. This process may
take up to two weeks for results. Pre-loaded whitening
trays are also available for your convenience. Contact us
to schedule your whitening appointment today!
Veneers are custom-made tooth colored porcelain
laminates designed to cover the front portion of your
tooth and are generally recommended to improve the
following dental conditions:
- Spaces between teeth
- Cracked or chipped teeth
- Slightly crooked teeth
- Poorly shaped teeth
- Permanently stained teeth
- Worn teeth
- Old crown and bridgework
Veneers can be customized to match the color of your
exiting teeth, or you may choose to create a whiter smile
by combining tooth whitening with your new veneers.
Bannockburn Dental Group is an official LUMINEERS
smile design office. Lumineers are porcelein veneers
that can be made as thin as a contact lens and are
placed over existing teeth without requiring removal of
sensitive tooth structure. In just two visits, you will have a
customized smile without pain, shots, grinding or
sensitivity. Lumineers are clinically proven to last over
20 years.
Once completed, your veneers will feel like your own
teeth, only better! Stains, chips and crooked teeth
disappear and you're left with a great looking smile and
healthy, natural looking teeth. For more information, visit
the LUMINEERS website at www.lumineers.com.

interested in improving your smile with LUMINEERS.
Snap-On Smile is a patented, removable custom
appliance requiring no prepping, no injections and no
adhesives, which simply snap over natural teeth. Snap-
On Smile is easily removable, completely reversible and
is an excellent option for patients looking for a non-
invasive, affordable approach to restorative and cosmetic
dentistry.
Tooth Colored Fillings and Bondings can replace
your old, silver fillings you've had since you were young.
Composite fillings match your teeth so well it will appear
that you were cavity free your whole life. Teeth dulled by
old amalgam fillings don't reflect light, and may give the
appearance of darkened, gray teeth. Your old amalgams
could also possibly be leaking, welcoming decay. Also
amalgam fillings do contain mercury.
If Dr. Andy needs to restore a decayed tooth he uses a
composite bonded filling. We no longer offer silver
amalgam fillings in our office.
The process of applying the composite filling is quite
simple. We place what is called a rubber dam over your
teeth so only the tooth we are working on is exposed.
The rubber dam prevents the removed materials, such
as the amalgam and mercury, from getting into your
mouth. Then we remove any decay and prepare the
tooth for the bonding of the filling.
Several layers of composite are applied in a
predetermined shade that matches your own. The filling
is then trimmed and polished to look like a brand new
tooth.
ClearCorrect Invisible Braces Do you have a small
imperfection in your smile? Do you often wish your teeth
were straight but don’t want the hassle of braces? Dr.
Andy can provide you with ClearCorrect, the clear and
simple choice. No brackets. No wires. Just clear,
convenient comfort. With ClearCorrect, Dr. Andy can
straighten your teeth using a series of clear, custom,
removable aligners. Each aligner moves your teeth just a
little bit at a time until you eventually get straight teeth.
Tooth Colored Crowns may be used instead of
standard porcelain fused to metal crowns. Dr Andy may
suggest cosmetic crowns to renovate your smile. A crown
is a dental restoration that covers the entire tooth and
provides the following solutions:
- Replaces a cracked or leaking filling
- Replaces a very large filling
- Restores cracked or leaking fillings
- Covers fractured or broken teeth
- Covers discolored or misshapen teeth
- Covers a dental implant
- Covers a tooth that has been treated with a root
canal
Cosmetic crowns start with a tooth colored base
instead of metal to give them a more natural look. Light
cannot pass through metal which gives a dull gray
appearance. The core materials, such as Procera or
Zirconia, allow light to pass through the tooth and do not
create a gray edge at the gumline creating a more
natural look. Also starting with a tooth colored base
means the lab does not have to block out the darkness,
allowing for a more natural shade. To replace any of
those old, dark, unsightly crowns you may have or to
makeover your smile give us a call today!
In today's fast paced world, we all have high profile lives.
Whether your home is in the bustling city or a quiet, rural
community your image matters. An attractive, bright smile
tells your audience, whether your a kindergarten teacher
or a CEO of a large corporation, you value the image you

that you are aware of techniques Dr. Andy can use to
make your smile what you want, give us a call today with
any questions or to book your appointment. We look
