Dental
veneers are thin pieces of tooth-colored porcelain cemented to the
front surfaces of your natural teeth, and are an easy way to address a
variety of physical and aesthetic problems. Because they're also
permanent, however, you'll need to carefully weigh the pros and cons of
the procedure before you decide to get them. Here are six things to
think about and discuss with your dentist.
Pro #1: Easily Whiten Your Smile
Years
of drinking coffee, smoking cigarettes or eating highly pigmented foods
eventually take their toll on your teeth, turning them an unattractive
shade of yellow or brown. Stained enamel can be bleached at home or by
your dentist, but it can become stained again. If you're looking for an
easier way to whiten your smile for good, dental veneers may be a good
fit for you. Veneers are largely stain-resistant, according to the National Institutes of Health (NIH), so you won't have to worry about discoloration or needing to have your veneers whitened.

See What Invisalign® Can Do For Your Smile
IF YOU WANTED TO STRAIGHTEN your teeth back in the day, you really only had one option–traditional metal braces. Nowadays, our patients have a variety of different options when it comes to how they would like to have their teeth straightened and what is most convenient for them. At our office, we offer Invisalign®!
Invisalign Treatment Provides Many Benefits
Not everyone is a good candidate for Invisalign, but if you are, it may be a great option to achieve your dream smile!
Many of our patients have been apprehensive about treatment due to time, cost, and comfort but during treatment and upon completion of their Invisalign treatment, they have been thrilled and wished they had gotten started sooner!
As the name implies, Invisalign trays are nearly invisible, allowing you to go throughout your daily activities with most people being unaware that you are undergoing orthodontic treatment! The aligners are custom-made for you, ensuring a perfect, comfortable fit.
Of course one of the best perks of choosing Invisalign is being able to eat whatever you want! Because you can take your aligners off while eating and drinking, you don’t have to worry about staying away from the foods that you love. Invisalign trays also don’t affect your oral hygiene routine like traditional braces do. You can brush and floss as you normally would!
You also won’t have to worry about getting used to metal brackets that may cut into your cheeks and lips at the beginning of treatment or during sporting events. With Invisalign, you don’t have to sacrifice comfort to get the smile you’ve always wanted.
Comparatively, Invisalign and braces can be generally the same amount of investment in terms of cost and time. When it comes to cost, our office offers payment and financing options to make this type of treatment fit into our patients' monthly budget.
Dr. Ha also offers Accelerated Invisalign as a courtesy to our patients. As an Accelerated Invisalign patient, you'll be in treatment for less time than traditional braces. Dr. Ha's Accelerated Invisalign typically ranges from 4-10 months. So if you have a busy schedule but still want to improve your smile, Accelerated Invisalign might be just the thing for you!
Here is an Invisalign case of an actual patient of Dr. Ha's. Jennifer was thrilled with the results after she was completed. The case took 4 months from start to Jennifer finishing and getting her retainers!
Watch the video below to hear why Fred chose Invisalign over traditional braces.

Porcelain Dental Veneers
Our porcelain veneers may offer the smile solution for which you've been looking. Veneers are thin, durable sheets of the most advanced dental ceramic available. They are bonded to natural teeth in a way that makes your teeth appear straight and uniform, creating an attractive smile. In no time, your crooked teeth can look like they've had years of straightening. Veneers can also be applied to a tooth to completely conceal a chip or crack or to reshape a worn or misshapen tooth. The veneer is made to match the color of the surrounding teeth, so your smile looks completely natural. If you have misshapen teeth, unsightly gaps, or deep discoloration, ask us if veneers are right for you.
