Porcelain Veneers

Porcelain veneers, available at our Virginia office in Newport News, are an excellent cosmetic dentistry solution that can mask chips and stains and also correct misaligned teeth. Porcelain veneers are made of a custom-created material that blends in with your existing teeth. The wafer thin porcelain veneers are relatively easy to apply and are very durable. To learn more about porcelain veneers, contact our Newport News, Virginia, office today.

Porcelain Crowns

Porcelain crowns, available at our Virginia office in Newport News, are realistic caps that fit over your existing teeth. Porcelain crowns can be used to mask injured, discolored, chipped, or cracked teeth. While serving an aesthetic purpose, porcelain crowns can also provide support and minimize any physical discomfort you may experience associated with damaged teeth. To learn more about porcelain crowns, contact our Newport News, Virginia office today.

Take-Home Tooth Whitening

Many of us feel our best when our smiles are bright, white, and clean. Unfortunately, the luster of our teeth can be negatively affected by a number of stain-causing substances such as coffee, soft drinks, tobacco, and tea. Our office offers take-home tooth whitening that allows you to restore your smile in the privacy of your own home. For more information on take-home tooth whitening, porcelain crowns, sedation dentistry, and porcelain veneers, contact our Newport News, Virginia office today.

Zoom™ Teeth Whitening

Our cosmetic dentistry office in Newport News, Virginia offers the cutting edge Zoom!™ Teeth Whitening system, one of the most effective tooth whitening systems available. The safe and convenient Zoom!™ Teeth Whitening system utilizes a hydrogen-peroxide-based whitening gel in conjunction with a specially designed lamp. First, the Zoom!™ Teeth Whitening Gel is applied to the enamel of your teeth. Next, the gel's whitening properties are activated by the Zoom!™ Whitening Lamp. The Zoom!™ Teeth Whitening Gel is removed after an hour followed by a brief fluoride treatment. In a single brief visit to our Newport News, Virginia, office, your teeth may be brightened six to 10 shades. For more information on Zoom!™ Teeth Whitening, porcelain veneers, sedation dentistry, and porcelain crowns in Newport News, Virginia, contact our office today.

Bonding

Tooth bonding is a quick and painless way to restore the beauty of a smile that has been affected by stains, chips, cracks, or misalignment. The tooth bonding procedure involves the application of a thin plastic or resin coating to the affected tooth. This durable coating strengthens your teeth and looks natural. To learn more about bonding, sedation dentistry, porcelain crowns, and porcelain veneers, contact our Virginia office in Newport News today.

Metal-Free Bridges

Gaps between teeth are not just unsightly, but they can also cause several dental health problems. Tooth gaps can cause misalignment of surrounding teeth and chewing problems, both of which can lead to bite strain or speech impediments. Discreet metal-free bridges literally bridge gaps between your teeth. Unlike old-fashioned bridges, metal-free or porcelain bridges look completely natural and do not feature the telltale black lines at your gum line. If you would like more information on metal-free bridges, porcelain veneers, sedation dentistry, and porcelain crowns, contact our Newport News, Virginia cosmetic dentistry practice today.

Technology

At Dr. Griffin's office, we use the latest advances in technology to ensure the most comfortable and effective visit possible. With computer imaging, intraoral cameras, and digital x-rays at our Newport News, Virginia office, we make sure you receive optimal dental care. Below is a list of cutting-edge tools we use.

Computer Imaging

Some patients can benefit from a cosmetic dentistry procedure but postpone treatment because they are unsure of the end results. With cutting edge computer imaging, these patients can now get a preview of their completed treatment. Using a digital photo, we can create a digital image to show you what treatment will look like or to help you decide what option is best suited for your mouth. Thanks to computer imaging, you can now make an informed decision about the appearance of your smile.

Intraoral Cameras

The non-invasive intraoral camera is a remarkable diagnostic tool that allows us to easily examine your mouth more efficiently than ever before. This tiny, state-of-the-art tool takes pictures of the inside of the mouth and displays the images on a computer monitor. Both you and your dentist can view the images together, giving you a better understanding of any dental procedures that may be performed.

Digital X-Rays

Digital radiography offers a number of advantages over traditional x-rays. Though traditional x-rays expose you to a miniscule amount of radiation, digital x-rays reduce radiation exposure up to 90 percent. Digital x-rays are taken with a small camera inserted into your mouth. The images are immediately captured on a computer monitor where you and your dentist can review the pictures together. This allows you to be better informed about your own dental health as well as any procedures the dentist may perform.

Patient Amenities

Going to the dentist doesn't rank at the top of most people's lists of ways to spend an afternoon or morning. To make the experience more comfortable and enjoyable, Dr. Griffin's office offers a host of amenities to our patients, including headsets, music, educational patient videos, and a wealth of other options. Come see us and relax.
