Both Invisalign and Angelalign are systems of clear, removable aligners that orthodontically straighten teeth. As an Angelalign Emerald Provider, we provide a trusted, nearly invisible alternative to traditional braces.
Traditional braces are a time-tested and powerful solution for correcting even the most complex dental issues. We offer high-quality metal braces designed to effectively move your teeth into their ideal positions.
A dental implant is a long-term, fixed solution for replacing one or more missing teeth. It involves placing a titanium post into the jawbone to act as an artificial tooth root, which is then fitted with a dental crown. This restores chewing function, appearance, and overall oral stability.
Dental veneers are thin, custom-made shells that are bonded to the front surface of teeth. They are used to improve the appearance of teeth affected by discoloration, chips, gaps, or uneven shapes. Veneers help create a more balanced, natural-looking smile.
Teeth whitening is a cosmetic dental procedure designed to lighten the color of your natural teeth and remove stains and discoloration. It is not a one-time solution but a process that can significantly enhance the brightness of your smile.
Teeth polishing is a professional dental procedure, typically performed by a dentist or dental hygienist, that smooths the tooth surfaces and removes minor surface stains. It’s often the final, finishing step of a routine dental cleaning.
