A smile is a universal expression of happiness and is often the first thing we notice when we meet someone. In fact, 99.7% of adults say an attractive smile is an important personal asset. But for some people smiling is a dreadful thing. They avoid smiling because they’re unhappy with how their teeth look. As a result, their self esteem suffers and they feel self conscious in social situations. In this day and age, nobody has to live that way.

We use many of the newest and advanced techniques in our office ranging from Invisalign and 6 month braces to porcelain veneers or in-office bleaching.
