Cosmetic Dentistry

Veneers
Improve the way your teeth look by having one of the dentists at Benyammi Family Dental place veneers. Veneers are ultra-thin porcelain-like shells placed over the front of teeth, concealing cosmetic issues such as:

  • Stains
  • Chips or fractures
  • Gaps
  • Slightly crooked teeth
  • Uneven teeth (too short)

Bonding

  • Dental bonding can be performed by the dentists at Benyammi Family Dental to resolve a variety of cosmetic dental issues. To perform a cosmetic bonding, the dentist applies a tooth-colored resin (composite) to the tooth or teeth in question. That resin is then hardened through the use of a special ultraviolet light. The material is then polished and shaped to ensure a natural look and feel.
  • Cosmetic bonding can be a wise treatment choice in any of the following situations:
    • Damage sustained from a cavity or tooth decay
    • To alter the appearance of a tooth that is short, discolored, or misshapen
    • To close an existing space or gap between teeth
    • To repair a slight fracture in a tooth
    • To replace older dental fillings that have started to fail
    • To protect tooth roots, which have been exposed because of receding gums
    • To repair minor tooth crookedness

Implant restorations
Implant dentistry provides a great alternative to replace missing teeth. Once the implant is placed by a dental specialist, one of the dentists at Benyammi Family dentistry will restore the tooth with an implant crown. Similar to crowns, an implant crown is placed on top of the implant and is made to look like your natural tooth.
Whitening
Many factors, including diet and aging, affect the color of your teeth. Tooth enamel is porous, allowing dark-colored food and beverages to stain it over time. The natural aging process also results in a yellow tooth appearance, as the outer layer of your teeth becomes thinner and the inside, darker layer of your teeth, shows through. Cosmetic teeth whitening can lighten and restore a whiter color.

  • The most common causes of stained teeth include:
  • Poor oral hygiene practices
  • Drinking cola, coffee, and red wine
  • Smoking
  • Excessive fluoride
  • Prescription medications
  • Dark-colored foods

Benyammi family Dental offers Opalescence® tooth whitening products for on-the-go whitening, custom take-home whitening, and in-office treatments.

At-home tooth whitening involves custom-made dental trays you fill with gel. While you may see results after the first use, it may take several sessions to achieve full results.

In-office Zoom® whitening involves your dentist applying a hydrogen peroxide whitening gel to your teeth and using special lights to help break up stains and penetrate the deeper layers of your teeth. In-office teeth whitening takes about an hour and you’ll leave the practice with whiter teeth and the smile you’ve always dreamed of!

Restorative Dentistry

Fillings
At Benyammi Family Dental, fillings are one of the most common procedures we perform. Rather than install one of the metallic restorations you may think of when you consider fillings, we use tooth-colored fillings to repair cavities or replace old fillings. The composite material we use will look like your other natural teeth.

The dentist will remove any area of the tooth that has been damaged. The tooth is thoroughly rinsed clean.An adhesive agent is applied to the tooth and then dried.The composite material is bonded to the tooth and cured using a special ultraviolet light. The dentist will shape and polish the restoration to ensure a smooth, natural look and feel.

Crowns
Installing a crown can restore or repair even a seriously damaged tooth and prevent total tooth loss. Having a crown is more convenient and comfortable than ever before thanks to advances in modern dental technology, techniques, and materials used at Benyammi Family Dental.

Installing a crown only takes one visit at our office. The dentist will first remove any area of the tooth that has been damaged or compromised by decay, after which we use our state-of-the-art CAD/CAM technology to fabricate your dental crown while you wait! The final restoration will be permanently bonded to your tooth, giving you a completely natural look.

Inlay/Onlay
Sometimes, a patient has a tooth with decay that is too significant to be repaired with a filling, but the area is too small for a crown. In these cases, the dentists at Benyammi Family Dental may recommend an inlay or onlay to repair the damage and save the tooth. Inlays and onlays are considered the ideal treatment for intermediate areas of damage because a greater quantity of the natural tooth structure is retained—as opposed to a crown, which replaces the entire exterior structure.
Bridges
A dental bridge can replace one missing tooth or multiple lost teeth that were adjacent to one another in the mouth. Bridgework consists of a tooth replacement (known as the pontic) with an abutment at either end that fit over your remaining natural teeth or dental implants that reside on either side of the space, essentially “bridging” the gap.
