Chart 02
Cosmetic Dentistry
Whitening in the chair in about an hour, or a take-home system if you'd rather do it slowly. Composite fillings that match the tooth, and invisible braces.
Chapter 01
Whitening, in the chair or at home
There are two real routes here: in-office same-day whitening, or an at-home system for anyone who'd rather spread it out. The in-office visit runs about an hour. A gum barrier goes on first, then the whitening gel, agitated every five to seven minutes, removed and reapplied once more after fifteen.
MI Paste is recommended afterward for anyone whose teeth feel sensitive. Both routes reach the same finish; the choice is really about how much of an afternoon you want to give to it.

Invisible restorations
Composite fillings are tooth-coloured, and the practice's own answer to the question everyone asks is that they hold up every bit as well as the older amalgam kind. Insurance often covers both at the same rate, so cost is rarely the deciding factor between them.
"Invisible" here means matched to the tooth around it, not hidden. A filling that disappears into a smile is the point, not a marketing word.
Chapter 03
Invisible braces, and the honest scope of this page
Invisible braces are a listed service at the practice. What isn't listed anywhere in the practice's own material is a brand name, a typical case length, or a price, and this page won't invent any of those to sound more complete.
The honest version is simpler: if straightening is something you're weighing, that's a conversation to have in the office, not a treatment plan to read off a website.
“First impressions are everything”
That line comes straight off the practice's own logo, sitting under the wordmark at the top of every page on this site. It belongs here more than anywhere else, on the page about the work people actually notice: a whiter smile, a filling nobody can find, a straighter line of teeth.
It isn't a slogan this site made up. It's the tagline the practice chose for itself, and cosmetic dentistry is the part of the practice it was written about.
