Our Cosmetic and Restorative Dentistry Treatments
Porcelain Veneers
Porcelain veneers are among the most transformative, yet natural-looking, cosmetic dentistry treatments available. With porcelain veneers, our Wichita area cosmetic dentist can completely make over a smile affected by teeth that are chipped, stained, or crooked.
Porcelain veneers are shells that are custom crafted to be placed on the front surfaces of aesthetically damaged teeth. Each veneer is translucent, meaning that it allows some light to pass through its surface much like natural tooth enamel. Veneers can be placed on one or two teeth or be used as part of a comprehensive smile makeover. In addition to concealing aesthetic flaws, they can be used to improve the shape of malformed teeth, change the length of teeth that are too short, and make other orthodontic corrections. Whatever your treatment needs, Dr. Winter will discuss your goals with you in detail to ensure that your veneers are crafted to your exact specifications.
ZOOM!® Teeth Whitening
Dr. Winter offers ZOOM!® whitening at our Wichita practice because of its speed and effectiveness. ZOOM!® professional in-office teeth whitening takes about an hour. The ZOOM!® procedure begins with an application of a hydrogen peroxide-based gel to the teeth. The teeth are then exposed to the proprietary ZOOM!® light, which breaks down the hydrogen peroxide and lets air into the teeth for an additional whitening benefit. You will emerge from the procedure with teeth that are radiant and noticeably whiter. We are confident that you will love the results!
At-Home Teeth Whitening
In addition to professional in-office ZOOM® teeth whitening, we also offer the advanced at-home whitening kit. The take home teeth whitening kit includes a comfortable, custom-crafted whitening tray. This tray is designed to hold a mild solution, which the main ingredient is carbamide peroxide, a substance that reacts with water to release a non-toxic bleaching element (hydrogen peroxide). While the at home whitening requires more time than an in office ZOOM® whitening procedure, it produces similarly stunning results.
Bonding
Bonding is used to improve the appearance of teeth that are discolored, chipped, or otherwise cosmetically flawed. The procedure involves the application of a composite resin to the teeth, resulting in a more aesthetically pleasing appearance. Cosmetic bonding is popular among people looking for a quicker, less expensive alternative to porcelain veneers.
Crowns
Crowns are used to correct teeth that have large cavities, are worn or broken, or have undergone root canal therapy. When the structure of a tooth is weakened, a crown can help to provide stability, prevent tooth loss, and create a more stable bite. Crowns may be constructed using various porcelains, porcelain-fused to gold, new high-strength porcelains or all gold.
CEREC®
For patients who don't wish to wait for their crowns to return from a laboratory, Winter Park Dentistry is proud to offer single-visit crown, courtesy of the revolutionary CEREC® system. CEREC® technology allows us to design, mill, and place beautiful, fully customized porcelain crowns in a single office visit. For further information about CEREC® restorations, please contact Winter Park Dentistry today.
Bridges
A dental bridge consists of a replacement tooth or teeth supported on either side by two dental crowns. The result is a strong and functional replacement for one or more missing teeth. During the procedure, the crowns are placed on the teeth adjacent to the gap where the tooth or teeth are missing. The replacement tooth or teeth are then attached to the dental crowns, which hold them securely in place.
Composite, Amalgam-free Fillings
Amalgam-free dentistry means that you can have a cavity filled without the whole world knowing. That's because these tooth-colored fillings are virtually undetectable. Because composite fillings can be customized to match the color of the treated tooth and surrounding teeth, amalgam-free fillings can restore your oral health while providing you with a natural-looking, aesthetically pleasing smile.
Inlays and Onlays
Inlays and onlays are used to repair teeth suffering from mild to moderate decay and, as well as replace older silver amalgam fillings. Inlays treat decay that lies between the cusps, or points, on the top surface of a tooth. Onlays treat decay that has spread to one or more cusps. Inlays and onlays help to preserve tooth structure because they are virtually undetectable to the naked eye.
