Cosmetic Dentistry for Lethbridge Families
Modern dentistry allows patients to straighten and whiten teeth while simultaneously strengthening smiles and combatting the progress of tooth decay. At the Lethbridge dental office of Dr. Harry Penner and Dr. Brad Low, we help patients achieve the smiles they’ve always wanted with functional cosmetic dental solutions.
Determining the Right Cosmetic Procedures for You
The first step in achieving your ideal smile is assessing your current oral health, and identifying which issues you would like to correct. Our smile analysis process includes a complete oral exam, where we determine the health of teeth and soft tissue.
Our practice prefers to take a conservative approach to cosmetic treatment, enhancing the natural beauty of your smile. Drs. Penner and Low help patients to preserve their natural tooth structures with procedures like porcelain crowns, allowing you to maintain your teeth, while restoring your smile’s aesthetic.
Aesthetic Dental Treatment Options
Our Lethbridge dentists’ cosmetically oriented dental procedures help your smile look healthy, bright, and balanced. With E.Max, Opalite, and other advances in cosmetic dental porcelain, we are able to provide patients with cosmetic treatments that maintain your smile’s function and balance, as well as beauty. We can help patients to achieve their ideal smile with any of the following treatments:
Veneers – Our Lethbridge dentists are skilled in utilizing veneers – made from thin shells of dental porcelain – to cover surface damage to teeth as well as minor misalignment. With porcelain veneer therapy, we can easily correct chips, cracks, severe staining, and even slightly overlapped or gapped teeth.
Take-Home Bleaching Kits – Teeth whitening is a popular and effective way to achieve a renewed smile. If you have yellowed or darkened teeth as a result of drinking tea, coffee, or smoking we can lift discoloration with customized take-home whitening kits. The teeth whitening treatment from our Lethbridge practice includes trays custom-made for your smile, creating a seal against your teeth to better whiten your smile.
Composite Fillings – While effective, metal amalgam fillings lead to unattractive spots on the teeth. Our practice can use tooth-colored composite material to restore teeth in a way that is cosmetically appealing and durable. Drs. Penner and Low can even remove old, silver fillings and replace them with tooth-colored composite.
Porcelain Crowns – To prevent severe tooth decay from spreading and to re-enforce teeth, damaged parts of tooth enamel should be removed and replaced. We use strong and life-like porcelain dental crowns to protect your teeth and allow them to look beautiful and healthy.
Our Commitment to Natural-Looking, Long-Lasting Dental Cosmetics
Improvements in restorative materials over the last few years have made cosmetic dentistry more conservative, durable, and life-like. Dr. Penner embraces the new technology and materials used in many dental labs today, such all-porcelain Opalite, and E-max. With these options for cosmetic restorations, patients are finding that their restored smiles are stronger, more attractive, and promote better oral health.
