offers the following cosmetic dental services:

Bleaching

Bleaching is a whitening based procedure to remove external stains from coffee, tea, and smoking. You may experience short term sensitivity which can be reduced by using a fluoridated mouth rinse for 1 to 2 weeks prior and during the active bleaching. You may consider using sensitive control toothpaste as well. Unfortunately, my fellow coffee drinkers, an annual re-bleaching will be needed since teeth will only re-stain over time.

• In-Office - Dazzle™; "Approximately 1 ½ hrs from start to finish. This treatment option is good for those individuals who need the whitening done overnight or simply cannot tolerate wearing the bleaching trays. We still give a free bleaching tray system future touch up." "Dazzle How To Video" (shows the uses of the product)
• Take Home Bleaching Trays - "Custom Made Bleaching trays are fabricated for your upper and lower jaws. You wear the tray for a minimum of 1 hour up to 4 hours. It is okay to wear them overnight. The initial bleaching treatment usually takes approximately 2 weeks. We encourage you avoid anything that can stain your teeth during active bleaching or the week afterwards. This includes food items like coffee, tea, red wine to name a few. The annual touch up usually requires a few nights of treatment."
• White For Life Program - "You receive the custom bleaching trays for both upper and lower jaws as well as 4 tubes of bleaching which gives you approximately 2 week supply if used properly. At your 6 month cleaning, you will receive an additional tube of bleach for touch up for just keeping your cleaning appointment. For more details and information about this program, please call the office at 732-920-7700."

Porcelain Veneers

Porcelain veneers are a fake front that are glued to your teeth to hide whats underneath. Veneers give us the ability to change the position, size, shape, as well as shade of your natural teeth. Veneers can be done independently or in conjunction with other treatment to give you the best results. We may consider doing wax ups and other diagnostic procedures to help determine what the desired outcome is. Please bring in a close up pictures of smiles that you like from magazines to your consultation appointment.

Orthodontic Treatment

Treatment to physically move your teeth from one position to a more desired position, aka straighten your teeth.

• Conventional Braces - "Conventional braces are the metal wire and brackets that you wear to gradually move your teeth. This is the preferred treatment for an adolescent patient. This office will usually start discussing in getting an orthodontist involved at 8 years old."
• Invisalign™ Retainers - "Invisalign™ retainers are a clear retainer that is worn through out the day. This treatment allows us to move your misposition teeth into a better smile without the need to wear those cumbersome metal brackets and wires." Invisalign - Before and After
