Cosmetic Dentistry in Steamboat Springs
Cosmetic dentistry can have a dramatic effect on your overall appearance. The smallest enhancements can make a tremendous impact on your confidence and appearance. Cosmetic dentistry may include a wide range of procedures, from color correcting whitening to replacing missing teeth. Our goal is to improve your appearance, function and overall health with every procedure we do.
Full Mouth Reconstruction
If you're looking for a way to improve the health, function, and beauty of your mouth, then full mouth reconstruction may be right for you. This procedure involves rebuilding and/or replacing all of the teeth in your mouth, and can be customized to meet your unique needs and goals. At Steamboat Advanced Dentistry & Implant Center, we use the latest aesthetic and restorative dentistry techniques to ensure that you get the best possible results. We'll work with you to create a treatment plan that meets your individual needs and goals, so that you can finally have the smile you've always wanted.
Gum Contouring
If you're unhappy with the appearance of your smile, gum contouring may be the solution for you. This minimally invasive procedure can reshape or resculpt your gumline, giving you the beautiful, even smile you've always wanted. During the procedure, Dr. Witty will carefully remove excess gum tissue around your teeth. If you have gum recession, they will also restore any lost gum tissue. The entire process is relatively quick and easy, and you'll be able to see the results immediately.
Dental Implants
If you're missing one or more teeth, dental implants are a great way to restore your smile. Dental implants are surgically placed in your jawbone and serve as the roots of missing teeth. The titanium in the implants fuses with your jawbone, making them incredibly sturdy and stable. That means they won't slip, make noise or cause bone damage like fixed bridgework or dentures might. Plus, dental implants can help preserve the health of your jawbone and nearby teeth. So if you're looking for a long-term solution to tooth loss, dental implants are definitely worth considering.
3D Printing and Same Day Crowns,Inlays, and Onlays.
We are proud to utilize SprintRay's 3D printers and Dentsply Sirona's Primemill for same day crowns, inlays, and onlays. These technologies improve the patient experience and final outcome by using precise technology to minimize discomfort and healing time once your final restoration is delivered. Dr. Witty saw the potential of 3D printing early on and was the first dentist in western CO and one of the first few in the state of CO to begin utilizing 3D printers. The technology of 3D Printers has exploded in recent years as more companies are now offering 3D printing solutions for dental clinics and more dentists are using them today.
