As your dentist in Little Chute WI, we understand the profound impact of a confident smile! Dr. Elese McClarie and the team at Riverside Dental Care work with patients on the specific things that bother them about their smile, whether that's a chipped front tooth, years of coffee stains, or a gap that's always felt self-conscious. Cosmetic treatment here starts with a conversation about what you'd actually like to change, not a standard package.
Smiles are more than just facial expressions; they have the power to boost confidence, enhance relationships, and improve overall quality of life. With our cosmetic dentist in Little Chute, you have personalized options to address concerns like discoloration, misalignment, or missing teeth.
Choosing Riverside Dental Care for your cosmetic dentistry needs comes with numerous benefits:
Whitening lifts years of coffee, wine, or tobacco staining. Veneers cover chips, close small gaps, and mask teeth that are worn down or oddly shaped, without the years of movement that orthodontics would take.
Patients often tell us they stop covering their mouth when they laugh, or feel more comfortable smiling in photos, once a chip or stain they'd been self-conscious about is fixed.
Veneers seal off chips and rough edges where bacteria and plaque tend to build up. Straighter, better-aligned teeth are easier to brush and floss thoroughly, which cuts down on decay and gum irritation in spots that were previously hard to reach.
We offer a range of state-of-the-art cosmetic services tailored to meet your unique needs and desired results:
Banish stubborn stains and discoloration with our advanced teeth whitening treatments, leaving you with a noticeably brighter smile in just one visit.
Custom-made to fit over your natural teeth, porcelain veneers correct issues like discoloration, chips, gaps, and minor misalignments for a flawless smile.
Restore missing teeth with our permanent, natural-looking dental implants, providing functionality, comfort, and long-lasting results.
No. A veneer that covers a chipped tooth also protects it from further cracking. Straightening overlapping teeth makes them easier to clean, which lowers the risk of decay along the crowded edges. Aesthetic and functional benefits usually go hand in hand.
It depends on the treatment. Whitening doesn't require anesthesia, though some patients notice mild tooth sensitivity for a day or two afterward. Veneers involve removing a thin layer of enamel, so the area is numbed with local anesthetic first, and there's little to no discomfort once that wears off. Implants involve a minor surgical placement, so anesthesia is used during the procedure, and it's normal to have some soreness or swelling for a few days afterward that's manageable with over-the-counter pain relievers.
Whitening: An in-office session typically takes about 60 to 90 minutes and shows results the same day. Take-home trays usually take 1 to 2 weeks of nightly use to reach full results.
Veneers: Usually 2 to 3 visits over 2 to 3 weeks, starting with prep and impressions, then a temporary veneer while your custom ones are made, then final bonding.
Implants: The longest process of the three, generally 3 to 6 months or more from placement to final crown, since the implant needs time to fuse with the jawbone before it can support a permanent tooth. Timelines run longer if an extraction or bone graft is needed first.
