Needs

As one of your most visible features, your smile is the first thing you communicate to the world. Dr. Harris doesn’t want anyone to hide or be embarrassed of their smile, especially when treatment to achieve perfect teeth has come so far. Taking people from “before” to “after” is one of the most rewarding parts of his practice.

Bonding

To save a cracked or chipped tooth from becoming worse, or lengthen or fix a misshapen tooth, the bonding process involves sculpting a tooth with a resin composite.

Bonding Process

Here are the steps Dr. Harris will take during a single appointment:

1

He will pick a solution that exactly matches the color of your existing teeth.

2

The surface of your tooth’s enamel will be roughened to allow for optimal attachment.

3

Resin material is applied and molded into shape.

4

A special light is applied to cure the material and then the tooth is polished.

Veneers

For uniform teeth and a gorgeous smile, veneers are overlays are attached to teeth. He can transform jagged or misshapen teeth in even and perfectly matches ones.

Veneer process

Here’s what you can expect the day of the procedure

1

Dr. Harris will clean the affected teeth and then remove a scant amount of enamel so the new veneer will not affect a patient’s bite.

2

He creates an impression that’s sent to the lab to build the veneers to your exact teeth size, shape and dimensions.

3

Temporary veneers are placed on the teeth while the permanent ones are being made.

4

At a second visit, the permanent veneers are cemented over the teeth, providing a

natural-looking effect. There’s no downtime to this procedure.

Dental Implant Restoration

When there is an existing base for an implant, Dr. Harris can restore it, creating a perfectly color-matched tooth to the space. He will examine the teeth and existing base, then create the new tooth to attach to it.

Who is a Good Candidate for Dental Implants?

Anyone who is missing a tooth or teeth, has sufficient bone density in their jaw and healthy gums, is an excellent candidate for this procedure. Since the titanium base fuses with the bone, implants are ideal for long-term stability of the tooth and bite.

Digital Smile Design

Wonder what your smile could look like? You don’t have to anymore. Dr. Harris can show you exactly how it could look through taking images & taking them to what’s possible through a digital smile design.

Clear Aligners

Invisalign & Clear Aligners

To perfect smiles by moving and realigning teeth in as little as six months, clear aligner orthodontics are a great fit for adults and teens. This transformative treatment is one of Dr. Harris’ favorite parts of his practice—creating beautiful, confident and lasting smiles for his patients.

Invisalign process

Dr. Harris sets you up for success with three simple steps

1

During your first visit, he creates a precise picture of your mouth using the state-of-the-art

iTero scanner and shows you a sneak peek image of what your smile will look like after treatment.

2

The images are sent to a lab, where your trays are built. You’ll pick them up at his office.

He’ll make sure they are a perfect fit and educate you about how to use them.

3

Dr. Harris will schedule check-in appointments as you change out the trays .

When treatment is finished, he will make an assessment.

Difference between Invisalign and conventional braces?

By creating trays that fit invisibly over teeth, teeth are gently moved or shifted into a desired position.

Teeth Whitening

Teeth naturally lose their luster with age. And lifestyle factors such as smoking, drinking coffee, tea, wine or soda worsens the effect. Professional whitening through light treatment combined with whitening gels can lift years of stains and discoloration, taking your smile to its brightest sparkling white.
