Not every patient can pinpoint exactly what they dislike about their smile. The primary purpose of a smile makeover is to design the smile of your dreams. Dr. Heringer can identify imperfections in your smile as well as the treatments needed to correct them. If you are unsure of why you are self-conscious of your smile, it is highly recommended that you bring in examples of smile characteristics you admire. Dr. Heringer can help you achieve the stunning smile you desire.

Is a smile makeover right for me?

Factors to Consider

Extent of Restorative Issues

If you have issues such as broken, chipped, or missing teeth, you may be better suited to a full mouth reconstruction.

Age

Since the teeth and jaw develop well into the teen years, patients should wait to undergo treatment until approved by the doctor.

Pregnancy

It is typically recommended that patients wait until after giving birth to undergo dental treatments.

But I am of afraid of even the most minor dental care...

A Gentle, Comfortable Treatment Experience

In addition to providing excellent dental work, Heringer Dentistry also offers a wide range of amenities to help patients have a relaxing and enjoyable experience. You can listen to music, view movies through high-tech goggles, and relax with warm blankets and supportive neck pillows. We gently administer local anesthesia to numb the treatment area for some procedures and provide sedation upon request to help you feel at ease. We also use lasers for many treatments, which can provide comfortable and precise enhancements.

How can these treatments improve my smile?

Popular Smile Makeover Procedures

Dr. Heringer and his team of dental professionals are ready to help you transform your smile through a customized combination of cosmetic procedures. Some of our more popular smile makeover treatments include:

Gum Recontouring

Using state-of-the-art laser technology, Dr. Heringer can recontour the gum lines of people with "gummy" smiles. Laser gum lifting or recontouring is a procedure which removes excess tissue from the gum line, leaving a patient with a beautifully enhanced smile. Dr. Heringer uses a Waterlase® laser for this procedure, which provides a precise and pain-free treatment, followed by a very quick and comfortable healing process. With Dr. Heringer's feather-light touch and expertise with the laser, there is no anesthetic or numbing required with this procedure.

Porcelain Veneers

The appearance of teeth that are stained, chipped, cracked, and misshapen can often be improved with porcelain veneers. These thin and custom-made ceramic shells are bonded over the patient's natural teeth to transform their smiles. In our office, Dr. Heringer prefers to use daVinci Veneers™, as they provide beautiful, durable and natural-looking results.

Teeth Whitening

In just one appointment, Dr. Heringer can whiten and brighten a patient's smile using the Zoom!® WhiteSpeed in-office treatment. This procedure can lighten a patient's tooth color anywhere from three to eight shades whiter in just one sitting. Unlike other teeth bleaching systems, Zoom!® WhiteSpeed works well on sensitive teeth and provides beautiful, long-lasting results. We also offer a convenient take-home bleaching system for patients wishing to whiten their teeth in the comfort and privacy of their own homes.
