Dental veneers are thin pieces of tooth-colored porcelain cemented to the front surfaces of your natural teeth, and are an easy way to address a variety of physical and aesthetic problems. Because they're also permanent, however, you'll need to carefully weigh the pros and cons of the procedure before you decide to get them. Here are six things to think about and discuss with your dentist. Pro #1: Easily Whiten Your Smile Years of drinking coffee, smoking cigarettes or eating highly pigmented foods eventually take their toll on your teeth, turning them an unattractive shade of yellow or brown. Stained enamel can be bleached at home or by your dentist, but it can become stained again. If you're looking for an easier way to whiten your smile for good, dental veneers may be a good fit for you. Veneers are largely stain-resistant, according to the National Institutes of Health (NIH), so you won't have to worry about discoloration or needing to have your veneers whitened.

The standard filling material for a number of years has been the silver-mercury amalgam. Although some practices still use this material, we do not. They have not been aesthetically pleasing, nor do they bond as tightly to a tooth as is ideal. The chance of decay eventually setting in is high. Our filling materials are composite resin and bond very tightly to a tooth, and even add strength to the tooth structure, while reducing the chances of decay developing around the restoration. They are made to match the shade of the tooth and make for a pleasing smile.

We also make natural-looking and totally functional bridges to replace missing or damaged teeth. We custom make your bridge from the best materials, and it is anchored on both sides with crowns. It takes care of the gap in your smile from multiple missing teeth and functions just like your natural teeth.
Sometimes the damage to a tooth is more than a filling can repair. A crown will be necessary to return it to full functionality and to complete a full smile.
We use the highest-quality materials that are lasting and enable you to chew all types of food. They look so natural, you cannot distinguish a tooth with a crown from your other teeth.
Every unsightly problem in your teeth can be taken care of. With veneers, you can correct misshapen teeth, deep discoloration, or wide gaps in just two visits! Our porcelain veneers are very durable, and this thin covering is bonded to your natural teeth to give a straight, uniform appearance to your teeth.
They also work well for cracked, chipped, or worn-down teeth. They conceal the problem tooth and blend with surrounding teeth, as the shade of the veneer matches your natural enamel.
Wearing dentures can mean having to deal with the annoyances of poorly fitting dentures that slip and tilt when eating or speaking. Adhesives don't work as well as they should, and the same problems continue. Dr. Marino is pleased to present an alternative to the use of messy adhesives. Overdentures will keep your dentures in place and let you eat whatever you like. By the strategic placement of just a few dental implants, your dentures are anchored in place. They snap off for cleaning and are easy to re-insert. Come in to see if you are a candidate for overdentures that will add a new quality to your life.
