Cosmetic Dentist – Schoharie, NY

Veneers

You can get a pristine white smile just like your favorite stars in as little as two appointments with veneers. Thin, custom-made porcelain shells are placed on the front of the teeth, enabling them to fix and mask stains, chips, cracks, gaps, and even minor crookedness instantly. It’s the same treatment most famous actors, athletes, and music artists receive, and now you can get the same results (while paying a lot less compared to them!).

Lumineers

Lumineers look and function just like veneers, so what makes them different? To ensure veneers lay flat and don’t look too bulky, a small amount of enamel has to be removed (about half a millimeter, the thickness of a contact lens). With Lumineers, the shells that go over your teeth are so thin that this initial step isn’t necessary. Many patients prefer this approach because it allows them to preserve their natural teeth and make future changes to their smiles if desired. 

Metal-Free Dental Restorations

In the past, dentists would use metal to craft dental restorations. Not only could this cause unwanted side effects like dental sensitivity and tooth discoloration, but it also highlighted damaged and decayed teeth so everyone could see them. Dr. Elbialy crafts his restorations from high-quality materials that can be customized to match the appearance of natural teeth, like ceramic and porcelain. Now, getting a cavity filling or dental crown doesn’t have to impact the appearance of your grin at all.

Direct Bonding

Also known as a “lunchbreak smile makeover,” direct bonding can be used to correct minor chips, cracks, gaps, and stains in as little as an hour. We simply apply a color-matched composite resin to the enamel and then sculpt and shape it to perfection. You’ll barely feel anything in the chair, the result is seamless, and you can trust the bonding to last for a decade or more.

At-Home Teeth Whitening

Most people wish their smile was brighter, especially those who have noticeable stains stemming from years of smoking or darkly colored beverages. We can send you home with a custom set of mouth trays as well as a bleaching gel that is several times stronger than anything you’ll find in stores. Using the kit for just 20-30 minutes every day for a week or so will lead to a dramatic result that everyone will notice. It’s the best combination of convenience, effectiveness, and flexibility—you can stop whitening once you reach your perfect shade and use your kit for touch-ups down the line.

Gum Recontouring

While your teeth are certainly the stars of the show when it comes to your smile, your gums play a big role as well. Too much gum tissue can cause the teeth to look short and stubby, but we can comfortably remove what’s not needed to reveal more of your pearly whites. It can give your smile the balance and proportion it needs to complement your entire face in just one appointment.

BOTOX/Juvederm

Many patients mention to us that one of the big things they don’t like about their smiles is the lines and wrinkles that appear when they show their teeth. Thankfully, we can help you with this! Botox is well-known for making wrinkles on the forehead and around the eyes disappear, and Juvederm can bring back lost volume to get rid of the line between your cheeks and lips. These services can be done at the same appointment as your regular cosmetic work, ensuring you walk out of our office looking (and feeling) like a new person.

Smile Makeovers

If you have several changes that you’d like to make, like replacing missing teeth, treating oral health problems, and restoring teeth that have been damaged, then a smile makeover may be the best option for you. During a consultation, we’ll ask you about the improvements you’d like to see, your budget, and the timeline you have in mind. Based on all of this information, we’ll develop a treatment plan that will include two or more of our restorative and/or cosmetic dentistry treatments to efficiently achieve your goals.
