In some cases, teeth stains originate from inside a tooth; this discoloration cannot be lifted. Additionally, teeth that have chips and spacing issues too mild to require crowns or braces need some manner of treatment to reshape them to be uniform. Morningside Dental Care offers porcelain veneers in these conditions. The thin shells conceal internal stains and refashion a tooth’s image to a natural-looking length and width, matching the overall smile.

Whereas too little gum tissue is a sign of periodontitis, too much gum tissue creates the appearance of shortened teeth and provides areas for bacteria to thrive. Dr. Williams performs gum contouring to give you a full, balanced smile. This selective removal of the extraneous gum tissue gives your teeth an appearance that matches their actual health.

Cosmetic dentistry is not only about looking your best but also making sure your teeth are healthy enough to remain beautiful and functional. To this end, our practice provides crowns and bridges made of porcelain. This material is durable enough to help your teeth function normally and is indistinguishable in appearance from the other teeth in your smile. Depending on the restoration being provided, we can also provide this cosmetic treatment more conveniently than traditional options. Our practice uses CEREC®, a computer-aided design and milling system that creates porcelain crowns. If you are diagnosed with the need for a crown, Morningside Dental Care can provide a natural-looking cap for the teeth during the same day.
