Cosmetic Dentistry

Highly visible, traditional silver fillings are a thing of the past! Repairing teeth with durable composite resin fillings retains the natural beauty you expect to see when you smile. 

Fillings are essential to stop cavities in their tracks and keep them from growing larger. But with the traditional amalgam “silver” fillings, they can often be seen when someone smiles or laughs. If you don’t want to advertise that you have fillings in your teeth, then let the professionals at Metropolitan Dental Center help you. We offer tooth-colored fillings that match your teeth’s natural color, so your teeth don’t call attention to past cavities. These fillings can strengthen a tooth and keep it functional for many years.

Metropolitan Dental Center is excited to offer GLO G-Vial® Teeth Whitening Gel for convenient, at-home teeth whitening!

Since tooth enamel is porous and hangs onto stains from things like coffee and tea, it’s only a matter of time until your teeth become duller than they once were. Even if you practice perfect dental hygiene, it can still happen. If the color of your teeth is hurting your self-confidence, we can help. Our professional teeth whitening service is safe, convenient, effective, and affordable. It’s a simple, quick procedure, call today to schedule your teeth whitening for a beautiful bright smile!  

When you’ve got problems with your teeth, like chipped, cracked, or missing teeth, it can be tough to be confident in your smile. If you don’t want to go through surgical procedures to fix your teeth, we can still give you a full perfect smile without the invasive work! Our porcelain veneers are custom fit to your teeth so you can have a beautiful smile without having surgery. Over the course of a few visits, we’ll create a mold of your teeth to make your new veneers, then fit them to your teeth and adhere them in place. The result will be a perfectly straight, full smile!  

Getting chips and cracks in your teeth, or losing a tooth, don’t just affect your appearance. They can affect the strength and positioning of other teeth as well as your ability to chew food comfortably. At Metropolitan Dental Center, we can put in crowns and bridges that restore the appearance of your teeth and strengthen your bite. 

Our focus when putting in crowns and bridges is to restrengthen your teeth while making your smile look naturally whole again. These procedures are not time-consuming, but the results last. If you’re interested in a crown or bridge, come in today for a consultation and we’ll explain how we can help! 

If you’re unhappy with the color, shape, or size of your teeth, you’re not alone. Plenty of people are, and that’s why we have so many cosmetic dentistry solutions to these problems. One effective solution to improve the appearance of your teeth is to have veneers put on. Our veneers are made of porcelain, giving them a smooth, bright white appearance. Veneers are made very thin, allowing them to be placed naturally over your teeth to give them a brand new appearance without looking bulky or being uncomfortable. 

Veneers work in a similar way to fake fingernails, they are placed over the teeth and adhered to their surface. The process of getting veneers is simple. Dr. Ingber will take a diagnostic wax of your natural teeth to custom fit the shape and size of your veneers and have them made. Then, he’ll shave off a small amount of your tooth enamel to ensure a strong bonding surface. Once that is done, the veneers will be bonded over your teeth and be ready to last for years! We offer a digitization of your smile before you commit to veneers, so you can get a picture of what you’ll look like with them. 

Porcelain veneers last for a long time, and they are completely functional for eating and drinking. If you have one or more of the following issues with your teeth, veneers may be right for you: 

• Tooth discoloration that hasn’t responded to teeth whitening 

• Hairline fractures 
• Chips and cracks 
• Large, visible cavity fillings 

While veneers can be used for crooked teeth, they are generally the last resort of treatment that Dr. Ingber will suggest in this situation. Instead, he’ll recommend having the teeth straightened through orthodontic treatment for a solution to the cause of the issue. He can explain further the benefits of addressing the root cause of crooked teeth rather than covering them with veneers, but should you still decide to go with veneers then the choice is ultimately up to you. 

 
If you are interested in learning more about the benefits of porcelain veneers, as well as other alternatives, call Metropolitan Dental Center today and schedule a consultation appointment with Dr. Ingber and his staff!
