Washington DC Cosmetic Dentist

Washington DC Cosmetic Dentistry

 

General dentistry mainly concentrates on maintaining the health of your teeth and gums, while cosmetic dentistry prioritizes the look of your smile. However, there are situations where the two areas overlap.

If you desire to enhance the health and appearance of your smile, our cosmetic dentists in Washington DC provide various options to achieve this goal, including:

  • Bonding: Bonding involves the application of a liquid adhesive and a plastic resin to the surface of your teeth. This technique can be used to repair cracked or chipped teeth, as well as to reshape misaligned teeth.
  • Inlays and Onlays: Inlays and Onlays are restorative options made from materials like gold, silver, resin, or porcelain. Inlays are similar to fillings but are more durable, while Onlays cover a larger portion of the tooth’s surface.
  • Veneers: Veneers are thin shells, usually made of porcelain, that are bonded to the front surface of teeth. They can be used to correct significant damage or to improve the appearance of slightly misaligned or uneven teeth.
  • Whitening: We offer two teeth whitening options at our Washington, DC office. Our in-office treatment can be completed in a single visit, or we can provide custom-fitted take-home bleaching trays for maximum convenience.

At our dental office, we take pride in utilizing the latest technologies to provide our patients with the most comfortable and efficient dental experience possible. One such technology that we use is air abrasion, which we employ when preparing the surface of your teeth for veneers or other general and cosmetic procedures.

Air abrasion is a technique that utilizes a stream of tiny abrasive particles to remove small amounts of tooth material. Unlike the conventional drill, air abrasion is much quieter and produces less vibration. Additionally, it’s a more gentle method that preserves more of the tooth structure, making it a great option for patients who are nervous about the sound and pressure of a drill.

Our patients consistently report that air abrasion is a more comfortable and pleasant experience compared to traditional drilling methods. Moreover, because air abrasion can be more efficient, we can often complete procedures more quickly and with greater accuracy.

Overall, we believe that air abrasion technology is a game-changer in the world of dental procedures. By utilizing this innovative technology, we can provide our patients with the highest level of care while ensuring their comfort and satisfaction throughout their treatment.

Best dentist’s office ever. I had Ashley as my hygienist and she was fabulous. Dr. Pollowitz was very clear and kind and seems to have created a wonderful office atmosphere. Can’t recommend enough.
