Dental Veneers
At the office of Ronald C. Fuhrmann DDS, dental veneers offer a fantastic way to correct imperfections such as stains, chips, gaps, or misshapen teeth. Veneers are thin, custom-made shells that are bonded to the front surface of your teeth, instantly transforming their appearance. We offer two main types of dental veneers:
Composite Veneers: These veneers are made from a tooth-colored resin material that is applied directly to your teeth. The composite is sculpted and hardened, often in a single appointment. Composite veneers are typically a more cost-effective option and can be a great way to address minor cosmetic issues. They can also be more easily repaired if needed.
Ceramic Veneers: Ceramic veneers are fabricated in a dental laboratory from high-quality porcelain. Porcelain veneers are known for their natural, translucent appearance that closely mimics tooth enamel. They are also more resistant to staining than composite veneers and tend to be more durable. The process for ceramic veneers usually involves two visits: one for preparation and impressions, and another for the bonding of the custom-made veneers.
Dr. Fuhrmann can discuss the pros and cons of both composite and ceramic veneers with you to help you choose the best option for achieving the smile you desire. To learn more about how dental veneers can enhance your smile, contact our Virginia Beach office to schedule a consultation.
Dental Bonding
Dental bonding is a versatile and relatively conservative cosmetic dental procedure used to improve the appearance of teeth. At our office, we use a tooth-colored composite resin that is applied to the tooth, sculpted into the desired shape, and then hardened with a special light. Bonding can effectively address issues such as chipped or cracked teeth, closing small gaps, reshaping misshapen teeth, and covering stains or discoloration. It's often a more affordable and quicker solution compared to other cosmetic treatments like veneers or dental crowns. If you have minor imperfections in your smile that you'd like to correct, dental bonding could be an excellent option for you.
Teeth Whitening (In-office and Take-Home by Opalescence)
Ready to brighten your smile? We offer effective teeth whitening options to help you achieve a noticeably whiter and more radiant smile. We provide both in-office and take-home whitening treatments using the trusted Opalescence system.
- In-office teeth whitening: Teeth whitening with Opalescence is a convenient option for those seeking immediate results. This professional-strength whitening gel is applied by our trained team in the office. It's chemically activated, so no light is needed, and the process typically takes about an hour. You can leave our office with a significantly brighter smile after just one visit!
- Take-home teeth whitening: For the convenience of whitening in the comfort of your own home, we also offer whitening kits by Opalescence. These kits include a customized set of trays that are made to fit your teeth precisely and a supply of Opalescence whitening gel. You'll wear the trays with the gel for a specified amount of time each day, to achieve a brighter smile over time. Take-home options come in various strengths to suit your sensitivity levels and desired results.
