Cosmetic dentistry is a wonderful option for any patient who wants to improve the appearance of their smile. Our team of cosmetic dentistry professionals provides a variety of treatments — including dental bonding and veneers — to hide big and small flaws. But which one should you choose? That depends on your needs and the results you want to achieve.
Have you ever bitten down and felt an unexpected twinge of pain? Or maybe you’ve noticed a tooth that doesn’t look or feel as strong as it used to. When a tooth is damaged, weakened, or worn down, a dental crown can restore its strength, protect it from further harm, and keep your smile looking great.
When people hear “veneers,” they often picture a perfect, Hollywood-style smile—but that’s not the whole story. The best veneers don’t create a new smile; they enhance the one you already have, making it look brighter, more balanced, and completely natural.
If you’ve been dreaming of a radiant, confident smile, teeth whitening is one of the simplest and most impactful ways to achieve it. With the Pola Advanced Whitening system, you don’t have to wait weeks for noticeable results or worry about discomfort during treatment.
Your smile is one of your greatest assets, but does it reflect how you truly feel inside? If you’ve ever dreamed of a brighter, more polished look or fixing imperfections that make you self-conscious, a smile makeover might be the perfect next step.
Do you ever feel self-conscious about your smile? If concerns like misaligned, chipped, missing, or discolored teeth keep you from laughing freely or smiling in photos, you’re not alone. Many patients tell us they used to cover their mouths or avoid being in pictures altogether. But it doesn’t have to be that way—cosmetic dentistry can make all the difference. Just ask Janet and Melissa, two patients who now smile with confidence. Continue reading to hear their stories and learn how cosmetic dentistry can help you achieve the smile you’ve always wanted.
At Smiles by Holsinger & Higgins, we’re committed to helping our patients achieve smiles that reflect their true selves. For one patient, Skylar, a combination of orthodontics and custom bridgework helped her regain her smile and her confidence.
Missing teeth can be unsightly, uncomfortable, and difficult to live with. They can change the shape of the face, and, most importantly, they pose a serious oral health risk. Bridges and dentures are two great solutions to the problem of missing teeth.
We are very proud of the work we do and that patients feel safe with our team. One of our patients, John, recently recorded a short video explaining his treatment journey, and we think you’ll want to hear what he has to say. Watch the full video here, and then keep reading for more.
When you look in the mirror, do you focus on the fine lines and wrinkles that frame your eyes and mouth and then complain about how they make you look older? Sure, smoother skin will give you a more youthful look, but do you realize how much your smile contributes to the appearance of your face? An unhealthy-looking smile can age you just as much as wrinkles and sagging skin.
Screening Patients
When our patients update their medical histories, we have been actively screening them to learn about any history of travel or signs of infection like cough, fever or shortness of breath.
Taking Temperatures
Before performing any dental procedures, we have been taking everyone’s temperature. This is our new routine protocol during assessment of all patients.
Washing Hands
All patients and team members are required to perform proper hand hygiene by washing their hands thoroughly.
Wearing Personal Protective Equipment (PPE)
At our office, we have a strict policy to only practice dentistry when the right protective equipment is in place. We always wear surgical masks and eye protection. Masks are changed between patients. Rest assured, we are fully stocked in dental supplies.
Cleaning and Disinfecting
Throughout the day, we are rigorously cleaning all public areas in our office, including the reception area, bathroom, and operatories. This intensive cleaning includes everything from door handles to chairs.
Proper Social Distancing
You can rest assured that we are practicing proper social distancing in our office. We are actively working to make sure that patients are 6 feet or more away from others. We are encouraging patients to come in at their exact appointment time so that no one is waiting in our office.
