Hear From Our Happy Patients

Life Changing Transformations

"People have never seen me smile as much as I have now!"

Growing up, Aubrey's teeth seemed to stop growing and she was left with small teeth that looked chipped and broken. I love seeing the transformation of her confidence and seeing her smile bigger than ever before. This boost in confidence is just what she needed during a big transformation in her life.

Most people would say Trevor has a lot going for himself, but his smile always left him feeling insecure. Combine that lack of confidence with some dental issues and Trevor was ready to make some big changes for his smile. With 10 upper porcelain veneers and two dental implants, Trevor has experienced a huge boost in confidence and other people are noticing.

How It Works:

The Cosmetic Smile Makeover Process

Consultation & Oral Exam

To begin, you'll speak with our team about how you honestly feel about your smile. What are the issues or imperfections that make you feel self-conscious? What would you change? What are the parts you like and appreciate about your smile?

You will then get a comprehensive oral exam to identify any issues that may disqualify you from a particular treatment. Cosmetic dentistry should only be performed on healthy teeth. If you require any restorative work, your dentist will let you know at this time.

Design a Treatment Plan

Once we've examined your mouth and discussed with you your problems and preferences, we'll provide you with a recommended treatment plan. There are many different ways to restore a smile, so we may provide several options and let you choose which best suits your lifestyle, budget, and priorities.

Schedule Your Treatments

Once you've agreed on a treatment plan that works for you, we’ll help you schedule your treatment appointments. We can also discuss payment options with you at this time.

Why choose implant restorations?

Implant restorations look, feel, and function just like real teeth. No matter how many teeth you’ve lost, you may be a good candidate for treatment with dental implants and an implant restoration.
LONG-LASTING RESULTS. When you care for them properly, your dental implants and your restorations could last decades. This is much longer than alternatives like dentures and traditional dental bridges, which makes implants a great long-term investment.
MINIMAL SPECIAL CARE. If you get a single-tooth restoration with a dental crown, you can just treat it like a normal tooth, and it’s easy to care for implant-supported bridges and dentures, too. This makes your life more convenient.

How it works:

The dental implant placement and restoration process

Placement

Once you’ve been approved for treatment, your doctor will schedule your oral surgery appointment and provide a surgical plan. During the surgery, your dentist in Flagstaff will make an incision in your gum tissue to securely place a dental implant in the jaw. Next, the area will be cleaned and sutures will be placed to begin the healing process.

Healing & Osseointegration

Your gums and jawbone will begin to heal once your implant has been placed. After 1-2 weeks, the incision site will be healed, but it will take 3-6 months for the implant to permanently bond with your jaw bone through a process called osseointegration. To ensure you are healing properly, we will see you for a couple of check ups during the osseointegration process.

Applying The Restoration

The final step in the implant treatment process is the restoration. Your restoration, or prosthetic dental crown, will be custom crafted to match your smile and securely affixed to the titanium implant. Once your new tooth is in place, your smile will be complete!

Digital Scans

Say goodbye to goopy impression trays and hello to comfortable and convenient digital scanning! Creating your custom Invisalign trays has never been easier.

Invisalign-Certified Provider

Dr. XYZ is an Invisalign Certified Provider. You can rest assured that your smile will be getting the industry’s best expertise when you come to our practice.

Digital Smile Design Mockups

Frequently Asked Questions

Who is a good candidate for Veneers?

Anyone can get veneers! As long as you have teeth and healthy gums, veneers are an excellent option for improving smile appearance and function. Missing teeth may need additional solutions such as implants or bridges, and teeth that are broken or decayed may need crowns or root canals. These treatments can be done in combination with veneers to create a smile that is both healthy and beautiful. Dr. Hales recommends that patients maintain good oral hygiene, attend regular dental visits, and treat dysfunctional issues like bruxism (teeth grinding). If you think you are a good candidate for veneers, you can schedule a consultation with Dr. Hales who will develop a treatment plan that addresses your unique needs.

When should you get veneers?

Porcelain dental veneers are an aesthetic and functional solution for a variety of dental concerns. Veneers are used to:

Improve the shape of the teeth
Brighten the smile
Repair chipped or damaged teeth
Improve teeth alignment by straightening or repositioning the teeth
Protect the teeth from sensitivity
Strengthen tooth structure
Improve TMJ or other bite issues

No matter the reason, veneers will make you feel comfortable about showing off your smile. If you feel you have healthy teeth and any of the issues or concerns listed above, it is time to start your veneer journey TODAY!

How do veneers work?

Veneers are thin shells of porcelain that are bonded directly to the natural tooth. Veneers are made to cover the front surface and edge of the tooth to make changes to the color, shape, size, alignment, and overall look of the teeth and smile. Porcelain veneers are individually hand-crafted and custom-made for each tooth.

How long do Harmony veneers last?

There are several things that can be done to increase the lifespan of Harmony veneers, including maintaining good oral hygiene habits and attending regular dental visits and check-ups.

Am I a Candidate for No-Prep Veneers?
