Your Cosmetic Dentist in Homer Glen Meets All Your Needs

If there’s one thing that’s smart to invest in, most people would say something like buying a home or opening up an IRA for retirement. But if there are two things that make a wise investor, the second has to be in setting aside some funds for none other than… yourself.

As your cosmetic dentist in Homer Glen, Dr. Alan R. De Angelo can help you smile with full confidence with a number of popular treatments. Keep reading to learn about how Invisalign, porcelain veneers, and/or professional teeth whitening can change your life (truly).

Invisalign Clear Braces

If your teeth are misaligned, getting them straightened out can benefit your oral and overall health by making them easier to brush and floss and promoting better function of the jaw. There’s no need to worry about covering up your smile with metal brackets and braces, though, when you can choose Invisalign.

This orthodontic option works using a series of clear plastic aligners to reposition the teeth over the course of about a year. The aligners are created to fit your unique dentition at each stage of the treatment. You’ll wear each one for one to two weeks before advancing to the next in the series, gradually making your way to a straighter, more beautiful smile.

Most patients are eligible for Invisalign.

Porcelain Veneers

Porcelain veneers are thin, tooth-shaped coverings that can hide the appearance of virtually any cosmetic imperfection affecting your front teeth. Completed in just two visits to the dentist’s office, veneers can last for years and years with proper maintenance.

Veneers can be completely transformative, but they are also highly customizable — because we know not everyone wants a perfect Hollywood smile.

Professional Teeth Whitening

Professional teeth whitening is a wonderful solution for smiles that just need a little rejuvenation. A high-powered solution like Zoom! Whitening is applied in-office, and can brighten smiles by up to 8 shades in just one, one hour visit. Take-home whitening works over the course of about two weeks and is a better option for people who are prone to tooth sensitivity.

Is Cosmetic Dentistry Right for You?

If you are in good oral and overall health but are not completely happy with the appearance of your smile, you can benefit from cosmetic dentistry. After a cosmetic consultation, we will schedule a checkup and cleaning to make sure your smile is free from cavities and gum disease. Both should be treated by your dentist in Homer Glen before or alongside any elective treatment.
