Smile Design. More than Just Cosmetic Benefits.
Whatever it is, the way you smile can make all the difference.
Dental treatments that improve the appearance of your smile have more than just cosmetic benefits. For example, moving your teeth into a better position with Invisalign will not only give you a straight smile, it will also make it easier for you to clean between your teeth and gums, reducing your risk of gum disease. Treatments like porcelain veneers can also strengthen your teeth while enhancing their appearance. It has been proven that patients who take pride in the cosmetic aspects of their smile are more likely to care for their teeth and gums with proper oral hygiene habits. You deserve a beautiful smile that makes you feel proud!

Benefits of Dental Implants
Make Your Smile Stand Out
Long Lasting & Durable
Dental implants are built to last, and they integrate with your jaw to become a natural part of your body. You can expect your dental implants to last 30+ years with proper care, and most people are able to keep their implants for the rest of their lives. This means that, in the long run, dental implants are often the most cost-effective method for restoring your smile, since dentures and bridges usually must be replaced every 5-15 years.
Completely Natural Look & Feel
Your dental implant and restoration will look and feel just like a natural tooth in every way. It will be indistinguishable from a real tooth when you smile, speak, and eat. With a dental implant, you’ll be able to get back to your day-to-day life and reverse the negative effects of tooth loss.
Supports the strength of your jaw bone – Unlike dentures and dental bridges, implants bond with your jaw and help support the bone by placing pressure on the jaw when you chew and smile, preventing resorption.
Requires No Special Care
To care for your dental implant, all you need to do is brush twice a day and floss once per day, just like you would for your natural teeth. It’s also important to see your dentist at Enamel Dentistry for regular six-month cleanings and check-ups. That’s it! No other special care or precautions are required.
Keep Adjacent Teeth Intact
he most popular permanent alternative to a dental implant is a fixed bridge. Fixed bridges use two crowns that attach to healthy “abutment” teeth and suspend a false tooth (pontic) in the gap where your missing tooth used to be. This restores your smile, but requires the intentional removal of healthy enamel from the abutment teeth. With a dental implant, this is not necessary.
