IN OFFICE PROFESSIONAL BLEACHING
If you want your teeth whiter right now, Aspen Dental House offers the very latest in the Zoom whitening system technology with the Zoom! Advanced Power lamp and whitening gel. The Zoom! Advanced Power whitening system uses a proprietary technology to whiten your teeth an average of eight shades in a little over an hour.
In the past, patients' have reported that uncomfortable tooth sensitivity during and after Zoom! limited their results. At Aspen Dental House, we developed a unique "sensitivity-reduction" protocol allowing most patient's to finish FOUR 15 min. sessions with minimal sensitivity during and after the procedure, optimizing the results of Zoom whitening.
This is the technology seen on ABC's television hit series "Extreme Makeover". We recommend "jump" starting your whitening process with Zoom, and completing the process with our home bleaching system, included with your Zoom! Advanced Power treatment.
The procedure begins by painting the lips and gum tissue with a protective coating. The clinician then applies the Zoom whitening gel to the tooth enamel surface, and places the Zoom activation light near your mouth. The Zoom activation light allows the solution to gently penetrate the teeth to remove deep stains and discoloration.
Combined with the included take-home custom bleaching trays and bleach, your whiter smile will sparkle for years. Learn more about Zoom bleaching at www.discusdental.com or contact our office.
Take-home bleaching
If Zoom isn't for you but would still like to get your teeth whiter through bleaching, Dr. Whitfield can fabricate custom bleaching trays for you to be used with take-home bleach.
VENEERS
Veneers are a fantastic way to create a whole new smile. For teeth that are abnormal in shape, color, or position, veneers are a great way to create the smile you've always hoped on having. Aspen Dental House is committed to creating natural looking life-like veneers, based upon your wish for a beautiful smile.
(actual patient's of Dr. Whitfield)
Veneers are very thin and are bonded on the front of your teeth. Dentists use some of the same techniques to bond plastic resins for minor smile corrections. These veneers vary in thickness depending on you current tooth condition and position. They can be as thin as 0.3mm but are very strong once bonded to your teeth. They have a "life like" appearance with the strength, beauty, and durability only porcelain restorations can afford. People are often concerned that too much tooth structure will have to be taken away but that isn't always the case. A thorough examination and smile analysis is always needed to know exactly how much if any tooth structure needs to be removed.
How is it done? Your first appointment involves a through discussion with your dentist to establish just what you wish to accomplish AND establish what can or can not be done. Then you return for some minor contouring of the front teeth followed by an impression of the teeth and the fabrication of some temporary veneers for you to wear while your real ones are being created. Once your veneers are ready, they are tried in, and, if satisfactory, they are bonded in place. A follow up visit is made in a week. The results are instant and spectacular! Many times, we combine bleaching with porcelain veneers to make that perfect smile. If some front teeth are already badly broken down, we can place new all porcelain crowns combined with veneering and other cosmetic techniques. As always, good communication with your dentist is always necessary in creating the smile you envision.
