What can we help you with today?

Everyone gets stained teeth. Stains accumulate as a result of the foods and beverages we consume, and for some, lifestyle choices like tobacco usage or neglecting one’s oral health can lead to dental stains. But try as you might by brushing and flossing diligently every day, and yet you’ll likely still get tooth stains.

It can be tempting to buy teeth whitening products from the store, but unfortunately, these products produce subpar results and end up being a waste of money. Most people will see only minimal changes to the color of their teeth.

Instead, consider professional teeth whitening in Sciota at Quiet Valley Dental. Using our professional and safe whitening agent, we can brighten your teeth multiple shades brighter for a more confident smile. We can even make custom-made trays that you can use at home for touch-up whitening treatments. Teens and adults with stained teeth are usually ideal candidates for teeth whitening.

Also referred to as dental bonding, this cosmetic dental treatment can be completed in a single office visit. It is ideal for repairing small chips and fractures in your teeth, as well as concealing gaps between teeth and filling small areas of tooth decay. A bonding treatment uses a composite material that matches the shade of your teeth and looks completely natural once finished.

Porcelain veneers are touted as one of the most popular cosmetic dental treatments available. They look completely natural, like perfect teeth, and can be used to repair one or more teeth. Veneers may take a couple of weeks to get the final results, but the wait is worth it. If you have teeth that are chipped, broken, discolored, crooked, or gapped, then veneers may be the right choice for you.

Ideal candidates for dental crowns are adults with severely damaged or decayed teeth. Dental crowns are made from solid porcelain and are shaped and formed to look like real teeth. Also referred to as a cap, dental crowns cover the entire exterior portion of your tooth down to the gum line. The purpose of a crown is to prevent a severely damaged tooth from extraction. You might need a crown if your tooth is cracked, has significant decay, or an old filling falls out.

Dentists often recommend dental implants to replace missing teeth. Known as the best tooth replacement available, implants can restore a single missing tooth or replace all of the missing teeth on a dental arch. In some cases, implants are used in conjunction with dentures to provide the most secure fit.
