The Team in Dentistry in Paradise
Cosmetic dental bonding is one of the many cosmetic services we offer, but do you know about its many applications? In this blog, we share everything you need to know about cosmetic dental bonding and how it can transform your smile.
Dental crowns, or caps, protect teeth weakened by damage or severe decay, but you don’t have to wait weeks between being prepped for a new crown and having it placed. With CEREC® same-day crowns, you can have a new crown in just one day.
Chances are high that you know someone who’s had their wisdom teeth removed, but how do you know if you need yours removed, too? In this blog, we explain what impacted wisdom teeth are, the top signs of trouble, and how we approach treatment.
Porcelain Crowns

The patient needs Upper Arch Rehabilitation. Presents with Upper Anterior teeth that are stained, incisal edges (tooth edge) are worn down and chipped, and gumline recession is present.

Placement of veneers and all porcelain crowns to restore her natural smile.
Dental Implants

The patient needs a single tooth replacement of one upper central incisor.

Cosmetic Bonding
