\n\t\tCosmetic Dentistry Services\n\t<\/h2>\n\t

Most people who are unhappy with the appearance of their teeth do not realize the numerous ways that cosmetic care can heal a smile. Cosmetic dentistry can correct crooked teeth, spaces between your teeth, chipped teeth, broken or missing teeth, stained or discolored teeth, and having a “gummy” smile. The dentists of Garner Dental Group create a customized treatment plan for you, based on your age, goals, and your financial comfort level. Discover why families of North Iowa have trusted us with with their smiles for many years.<\/p>\n

\n\t\tPorcelain Veneers\n\t<\/h2>\n\t

Imagine a whiter, more brilliant smile! Placement of porcelain veneers is a conservative cosmetic treatment that makes a dramatic difference in the appearance of your teeth. If you have crooked teeth, chipped teeth, gaps in teeth, or dull\/stained teeth, veneers may be the perfect solution. Your dentist will skillfully create a straight, brilliant smile that enhances both your appearance and your self-esteem.<\/p>\n\t\t\t\t\"quote\"\n\t\t\t\t\t\t

Excellent doctors and staff! I have had all of my dental work done here and they have never disappointed me. I am grateful for the care they have given to my teeth over the years.<\/p>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\tTheodore Schoneman\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\n\t

\n\t\tTeeth Whitening\n\t<\/h2>\n\t

You can have the confidence that comes from a bright, white smile. If you are happy with the alignment and spacing of your teeth, a teeth whitening procedure may be all that separates you from a dazzling smile. Teeth whitening is safe, effective, and long lasting. Your home whitening kit involves a special tray that is customized to fit over your teeth, evenly dispersing prescription whitening gel that is inserted into the tray before you wear it. You can expect the entire home whitening process to take between two and four weeks, leaving you with a whiter, brighter smile. With home whitening, you can reuse your trays to touch-up your smile whenever it needs a little boost. If you are thinking of other cosmetic improvements, such as crowns, porcelain veneers or replacing old discolored fillings, consider whitening your teeth first. Then, any future restorations will be matched to your whitened teeth, giving you fantastic results.<\/p>\n

\n\t\tInvisalign\u00ae\n\t<\/h2>\n\t

You can straighten your teeth without metal braces. Invisalign\u00ae is an FDA-approved system that uses clear, removable aligners to incrementally straighten your teeth. There are no uncomfortable brackets or wires, and because you remove the aligners to eat and drink, there is no need to worry about food restrictions or problems with brushing or flossing.<\/p>\n

Invisalign\u00ae begins with the use of 3D computer imaging to map out your entire treatment plan in advance, allowing you to see what your teeth will look like before you begin treatment. Then, using the imaging, a series of custom aligners will be created that will incrementally move your teeth. You will replace each aligner every two weeks with the next aligner in the sequence. Average treatment time from your initial teeth position to a brilliant, straight smile ranges from 9-to-15 months. The best part is that most people will never even notice you are undergoing treatment!<\/p>\n

\n\t\tPorcelain Bridges\n\t<\/h2>\n\t

If you’ve lost a tooth, a large gap in your smile, left uncorrected, can create significant problems for your dental health. Gradually, your bite pressure may shift to other parts of your mouth to compensate for an inability to efficiently chew in the area of the missing tooth. Neighboring teeth may begin to move into the gap resulting in discomfort, pain, and more problems in the future. After some preparation of the two neighboring teeth, crowns are created for them. A prosthetic tooth (or pontic) is fused between the crowns. Fixed bridges literally “bridge the gap” in your smile. Your dentist creates a functional, natural-looking bridge to correct your smile, restore your bite, and alleviate your discomfort.<\/p>\n

\n\t\tPorcelain Crowns\n\t<\/h2>\n\t

You can erase years of wear and tear with porcelain crowns. Your Garner Dental Group dentists use a tooth-like crown made of porcelain to restore your tooth after the decay has been removed. Crowns are also used to restore chipped teeth, broken teeth, gaps in teeth, and other damage. Also called “caps,” porcelain crowns mimic natural-looking teeth in both shape and color.<\/p>\n

\n\t\tTooth Colored Fillings\n\t<\/h2>\n\t

Are you embarrassed about your smile because of decayed, disfigured, or discolored teeth? If so, you may be a good candidate for composite resins, also known as tooth-colored fillings or restorations. When the decay has been removed from the tooth, it is replaced with “filling” material. In the past, amalgam (silver) fillings were placed into the cleaned-out portion of the tooth. With new advancements in dentistry, you can now have tooth-colored fillings instead of silver fillings, resulting in a longer-lasting, brighter, whiter smile. The new tooth-colored material is bonded to the teeth for a stronger restoration.<\/p>\n\t\t\t\t\"quote\"\n\t\t\t\t\t\t

I have been with Drs. Tesene Mauer & Mauer for as long as I can remember. My husband, children, and I travel almost a hour for our visits. Well worth the trip! Wouldn’t go anywhere else!<\/p>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\tStephanie Hennigar\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\n\t

\n\t\tBonding\n\t<\/h2>\n\t

Bonding is a tooth-colored material applied and adhered to the surface of the tooth, often without reducing the structure of the tooth. The bonding material is sculpted by your dentist to resemble a natural tooth, correcting chipped, broken, stained, or discolored teeth, and in some cases, correcting gaps. While it is less of an investment than porcelain veneers, bonding doesn’t last as long and can sometimes become stained from foods and beverages. We encourage you to come in and talk with the Garner Dental Group team about your options.<\/p>\n

\n\t\tGum Contouring\n\t<\/h2>\n\t

Do you have a “gummy” smile? If so, you may be a good candidate for cosmetic contouring of your gum tissue. Your dentist can give you a more aesthetic appearance when you smile by shaping and sculpting your gums, using a laser to minimize recovery time. This procedure can make a dramatic difference in the look of your smile, especially when combined with other cosmetic dentistry.<\/p>\n
