The Dental Parlour is proud to be one of the world's premier locations for patients seeking natural-looking porcelain veneers. Veneers are extremely thin shells that are permanently adhered to the front of the teeth, to give the illusion of a different size, shape, position, or color. When done properly, they mimic natural teeth perfectly. Dr. Sivan Finkel is an artist by nature who has been extensively trained in veneers, and has refined his unique approach to smile transformations for more than a decade. Unlike a crown, which involves more extensive shaving of a tooth (and which is appropriate in some situations) a properly done veneer only requires the removal of the outermost layer of enamel (0.3 - 0.5 mm to be specific) and so is a relatively conservative treatment option. Before the technical elements come into play, however, your new smile must be envisioned and designed by a doctor with an artistic eye and a deep understanding of natural beauty. Dr. Finkel has developed a personal approach to this design stage that you will not find anywhere else. His background in art, combined with respect for the biology involved and the functional requirements of our teeth, allows him to create beautiful, natural looking smiles that are in harmony with the overall face. And perhaps most importantly, the work is always done ethically, which means minimal drilling on your teeth.
Misaligned teeth are not just unesthetic; it's been shown that crowded teeth invite a more aggressive type of bacteria into those unnaturally tight spaces. Using a series of clear plastic trays, we can correct a crooked smile in a matter of months.
Our in-office Zoom teeth whitening system allows patients to achieve dramatic whitening results with a minimal time investment. Zoom is one of the best known and most effective professional whitening systems on the market. You can expect to leave our office with significantly whiter teeth after a single appointment that lasts an hour and a half. The procedure is completely non-invasive and can eliminate or substantially lighten even the most persistent stains and discoloration. With an appropriate oral hygiene regimen and regular cleanings, teeth whitening can last for years. For future periodic touch-ups at home, we can provide you with custom take-home bleach trays as well. Before performing tooth whitening, we must make sure you don’t have signs of active gum disease, untreated tooth decay, or dental restorations that are leaking or crumbling. Broken fillings and untreated dental disease allow the teeth whitening gel to penetrate your teeth more deeply than is desirable, potentially causing sensitivity and tooth pain. Also please note that existing dental restorations like crowns, bridges, veneers, and composite bonding will not change color during teeth whitening, a fact that should be considered beforehand. Whitening is also not suitable for pregnant women or women who are breastfeeding. After first protecting your lips and gums, we carefully coat your teeth with the whitening gel. The gel is activated with the Zoom laser and we begin the first fifteen minute session. We will remove and reapply the gel several times during your treatment, aiming for 3-4 rounds. Once complete, your teeth will be several shades whiter. Afterwards, it will take the new shade of your teeth forty eight hours to settle. During this time window, your teeth are more vulnerable to staining, and so it’s recommended to avoid very strongly colored foods and beverages (think red wine, tomato sauce, black coffee.) Your teeth may likely even continue to lighten in this two day period. After this, moving into the future, we recommend at-home bleach trays for periodic maintenance.Why do I need a dental checkup before teeth whitening?
