The BENEFITS of Cosmetic Dentistry at Southdale Dental Associates

Beautiful, Natural Results
Professional teeth whitening can remove years of stains and yellowing, bringing back a bright, winning smile.

Dental Art Meets Science
Veneers are strong porcelain bonds handcrafted and customized to fit your smile, hiding tough stains, chipped teeth, and unwanted gaps. They can even make misaligned teeth look straighter.

Good as New

When teeth are damaged due to cavities, heavy bite forces, or trauma, dental crowns or bonding procedures allow these teeth to be rebuilt and covered with materials that mimic nature.

A Lasting Investment

Dental implants feel and function like natural teeth and last a lifetime, allowing patients to eat, speak, and smile with confidence. Unlike removable dentures, dental implants are a permanent solution.

Frequently Asked QUESTIONS

Experience compassionate dental care led by our dedicated team, who are committed to making your visit as comfortable and stress-free as possible.

What is Invisalign®?

Invisalign® offers a subtle and nearly invisible approach to gradually straightening your teeth. Through a sequence of custom-made, removable aligners, your teeth are gently guided into the desired position, allowing you to achieve your ideal smile.

How long does the process take?

Typically, the process takes less than a year, with the duration dependent on the extent of tooth movement needed. Treatment times usually span around 28 weeks, but in some cases, as brief as 12 weeks. For single arch Invisalign® treatments, the average duration is approximately 18 weeks.

How soon will I see results?

You’ll experience the desired, transformative results of Invisalign® in as little as 4-12 months, although patients begin to notice positive changes well before then.

Is it guaranteed?

If for any reason, you are not completely happy with the results, we commit to addressing your concerns and, if necessary, providing corrective measures. Your confidence in our care at Southdale Dental Associates is our priority, and we’re committed to delivering exceptional dental experiences.
