Cosmetic Dentist Ironwood, Richmond, BC
Your Cosmetic Dentist Ironwood, Richmond, BC
Your cosmetic dentist Ironwood wants to help you with your smile. Cosmetic dentistry has taken great strides, creating advances and procedural developments that provide patients with a vast assortment of options designed to transform the overall appearance of less-than-perfect smiles into beautiful ones. Each of the cosmetic procedures that we offer has a specific purpose in mind and a unique process that must be completed.
Some of our cosmetic procedures are designed to whiten yellowing teeth or minimize the appearance of discoloration and food stains, while others are intended to re-align the teeth, eliminate dental decay and repair the damaged tooth, replace missing teeth, or strengthen damaged teeth. Together, all of these cosmetic procedures can completely transform the look of a patient’s mouth to a more pleasing appearance.
Teeth Whitening
Your cosmetic dentist Ironwood can apply a cosmetic treatment that uses a special bleaching agent to whiten the coloration of tooth enamel.
Our clinic offers both in-office custom formulated whitening solutions and at-home whitening trays by Poladay. Brighten your smile safely in just one visit, or over time on your own schedule.
In-office whitening lasts about 90 minutes and whitens stained teeth up to 7 shades, instantly. Take-home whitening with custom trays takes about 30 minutes each day and whitens your teeth several shades in under 2 weeks.
But remember that whitening treatments only work as long as you are practicing good dental habits like coming in for routine cleanings an exams.
Veneers
Veneers are cosmetic shells bonded to the front of teeth, creating a facade that also protects your smile. Your cosmetic dentist Ironwood uses porcelain veneers, perfectly shaded to match the colour of your real teeth to create a set of natural, perfect pearly whites.
Veneers are used to correct badly worn, chipped, stained or crooked teeth in the front of the mouth. Usually a two-step process, our dentist will first remove part of your existing tooth to make room for the Veneer, essentially making the procedure irreversible. Eventually after a few years, veneers do require some maintenance to look their best. Talk to us to find out if they are right for you.
Dental Implants
Dental implants are used to restore areas of your mouth where teeth have been lost. A titanium post is placed in the jaw bone and a prosthetic tooth is attached to this post to restore the area without having to touch the teeth on either side of the space. The implant replaces the missing tooth and acts as a new root of the tooth. Dental implants can also be used to attach dentures to increased retention and stability.

Invisalign® Treatment
Have you always wanted to straighten your teeth but didn’t want to commit to a long-term treatment plan? Or are you self-conscious of wearing brackets and wires? If so, Invisalign® treatment may be the solution for you. Visit our page on Invisalign in Richmond to learn more and take the first steps toward your new smile.
Crowns and Bridges
Crowns and most bridges are cosmetic prosthetics fixed to your teeth. We use porcelain or gold to craft both crowns and bridges, bonding them to your teeth and carefully matching the colour to the rest of your smile. Crowns and bridges make your teeth more attractive, improve your bite and protect your smile all at the same time.
Crowns
A cosmetic process that covers a severely damaged tooth with a synthetic cap (crown) to protect it and restore functionality to the tooth
Crowns are typically used by our dentist to cap or cover a damaged tooth, or to repair and protect an existing tooth.
Bridges
The use of a fake tooth attached by two crowns on adjacent teeth to replace a missing tooth.
Bridges are commonly used to fill a large gap or a space between teeth. A bridge is often an alternative to a dental implant or orthodontic work, for which many insurance plans will offer partial coverage.
