Zoom! TEETH WHITENING

The Zoom2! In-Office Whitening System is a revolutionary tooth whitening procedure. It's safe, effective and fast - very fast. In just over an hour, your teeth can be dramatically whiter. Zoom2! Whitening is ideal for anyone looking for immediate results. The convenience of Zoom2! in comparison to days of wearing trays and gradual whitening makes it the perfect choice for the busy individual.

Get ready to Zoom2!

The Zoom2! Whitening procedure is simple and painless. It begins with a short preparation to isolate your lips and gums. Then the proprietary Zoom2! Whitening Gel is applied, which is activated by a specially designed light. Teeth on average become at least six to eight shades whiter, sometimes more. You will be amazed with the results! In most cases, your teeth will get even whiter the first few days after the procedure.

How Zoom2! Works

The Zoom2! Light-activated gel was developed after years of research by Discus Dental, the leaders in professional take-home tooth whitening. The gel is a scientifically formulated, pH balanced hydrogen peroxide that, when activated by the Zoom2! light, gently penetrates the teeth to remove deep stains and discoloration. With proper care and an occasional touch-up at home, your whiter smile will sparkle for years.

BONDING

Bonding can be used as a restorative procedure for teeth that are chipped, cracked, or unevenly spaced. Bonding is done by lightly etching the tooth surface and applying a bonding liquid. Once the liquid sets, a plastic composite resin is applied and sculpted into the desired shape by Dr. Rubin. Once set, the resin is trimmed, smoothed and polished to a natural appearance.

PORCELAIN VENEERS/SMILE MAKEOVERS

Porcelain veneers are very conservative esthetic dental restorations that feel natural! They offer vitality and beauty that is so life-like that people will believe they are your natural teeth. At the same time, porcelain veneers are incredibly strong. When bonded with today's adhesive technology and procedures, they can increase and restore a tooth's strength. Generally, a veneer can correct or enhance any cosmetic situation. A thin layer of the tooth is removed to allow a custom porcelain tooth facing to be bonded to the tooth.

This allows us to lighten dark or discolored teeth, fix fractured or chipped teeth, and straighten crooked or misaligned teeth without the need for braces. It can also close gaps and increase the length and size of teeth that have worn down with time. Amazingly, all of this can usually be accomplished in only two visits.

Have you ever dreamed of having a movie-star smile? Straight, even, incredibly white teeth that look and feel perfectly natural?

You can stop dreaming.

The possibilities seem endless. Metal fillings and restorations? Naturally white. Chipped or worn teeth? Smooth and perfect again. Gapped or overlapping teeth? Straight and even – without braces. It's possible. And it's what you've always wanted.

Often, a combination of veneers, crowns, inlays/onlays, and bridges helps to create the masterpiece. Dr. Rubin works directly with each patient to design a smile in perfect proportion to your bone and facial structure, using a series of sophisticated facial measurements to ensure a natural appearance.

A custom wax model of the smile are created for each patient to help them visualize the final result. Patients even help choose the best color for their smile!

The procedure is in no way complicated. The affected teeth undergo a simple, painless preparation, and natural looking temporaries are placed so that your teeth look and feel normal. At the next visit, the resin temporaries are replaced with lifelike porcelain restorations, bonded to the natural tooth structure. The entire process usually takes no more than two visits, so an entirely new look and a new outlook can be obtained literally overnight. Your new smile is gorgeous, and you will feel incredible! Please call us to schedule your initial consultation, a first step toward turning your dream into reality.

TOOTH REPLACEMENT OPTIONS (Dental Implants)

There is a better solution to restoring lost teeth due to accident or disease than the traditional partial, denture or bridge. Restoring your mouth where one or more teeth have been lost starts by replacing the lost tooth root, this is what a dental implant does. Dental Implants are artificail tooth roots that are placed in the jaw bone. We then can attach replacement teeth that look and feel just like the real thing. You can bite, chew, speak and smile with confidence. New technology has enabled the implant to be done in a single appointment, without the multiple surgeries associated with implants in the past. A consultation appointment to explain treatment options and to verify that your jawbone is ready to support dental implants begins the process.

DIGITAL RADIOGRAPHY

With this exciting new technology, instead of a trip to the developer, the dentist and patient can view their x-ray images on the computer screen just seconds after their radiographs are taken. The images are stored in the computers memory, from where they can easily be retrieved. The chemical waste associated with film processing is eliminated and more significantly, patients are exposed to 90% less radiation dosage.

INTRA-ORAL CAMERA

The latest in dental technology gives us the Acucam intra-oral camera. It is a wonderful tool that allows us to take a very close look at the patient's teeth. With a miniaturized camera, we can display things in the mouth that are magnified 25 times on the monitor. This way, it allows the patient to see everything we see!

Nonsurgical Periodontal (Gum) Therapy

Research has shown that periodontal health can be achieved with less invasive and more cost-effective procedures. If you have been diagnosed with periodontal disease, we will begin with scaling and root planing, anti-microbial rinse irrigation, and placement of antibiotics as indicated. These procedures are completed with little to no pain and injection-free anesthetic is available and will wear off by the end of your appointment. 85% of Americans have some form of periodontal disease and when left untreated can lead to tooth loss and harmful systemic risks.
