Smile Design Porcelain Veneers Prepless Veneers: Lumineers® Invisalign® Teeth Whitening Laser Dentistry Cosmetic Bonding Smile Design & Makeover Dr. Tsangaroulis utilizes advanced digital smile design (DSD) technologies to create smile simulations and models to help you visualize your future smile before any dental procedures physically start. With this innovative process, you can see the potential results of a variety of cosmetic and reconstructive treatments that may be included in your smile makeover, such as porcelain veneers and crowns. We are dedicated to artfully crafting the perfect smile that improves your appearance while reflecting your unique beauty. Learn More Porcelain Veneers Porcelain veneers are one of the most popular cosmetic dental treatments available. Using thin porcelain shells, teeth can be strengthened and enhanced in a multitude of ways. If you’re bothered by chips, gaps, cracks, misalignment, stains, or other concerns, porcelain veneers provide a beautiful, natural-looking solution for one tooth—or your entire smile. Our innovative techniques allow for a bare minimum of tooth reshaping, helping to keep your smile looking and working its best for years to come. Learn More Prepless Veneers: Lumineers® Lumineers® are made up of ultra-thin, highly durable porcelain material that can cover up dental concerns like stained, discolored, chipped, crooked, misaligned, or misshapen teeth. Lumineers® are designed to look and feel natural while requiring little to no prep work, leaving the original tooth enamel untouched. Since Lumineers® can bond directly to the tooth’s front surface, no drilling or numbing injections are necessary. Also, if patients decide that they do not want their Lumineers® anymore, the procedure can be easily reversed and their normal tooth structure will remain. With proper care and maintenance, Lumineers® can last for decades and can be an ideal veneer option for patients who desire quick, natural-looking results. Learn More Invisalign® Correct misalignment, gaps, crowding, and other common orthodontic concerns with a series of clear aligners. Invisalign® uses an innovative system to gently and optimally reposition your teeth for a more beautiful smile and better functioning oral structures. Removable, virtually invisible, and more comfortable than traditional metal braces, Invisalign® may be able to help you achieve your goals.

Whether you choose an in-office procedure, take-home trays, or a combination approach, we can help you clear away years of stains and discoloration for a more brilliant smile. Learn More Laser Dentistry A laser can be used to gently remove unwanted gum tissue and eliminate high gummy smile lines or short-appearing front teeth. This treatment has become popularly known as gum shaping, contouring, reshaping, recontouring, and crown lengthening. Laser treatment is so precise that Dr. Tsangaroulis is capable of changing the overall appearance of the gumline, from tooth to tooth, producing a great smile. Learn More Cosmetic Bonding Cracks, chips, and small imperfections can be disguised and corrected with cosmetic bonding. Tooth-like material is applied to the area of concern to create a smooth, natural-looking finish. Cosmetic bonding is one of the most affordable and popular ways to address minor concerns, although it is not appropriate for all situations. Our team can help you decide if this or another technique can provide the ideal outcome based on your needs and goals. Learn More
