Types of Dentistry

Cosmetic Dentistry - What is Cosmetic Dentistry? Your dental
work can be beautiful and does not need to be made of old-fashioned, unattractive materials, but Cosmetic Dentistry encompasses so much more than beautifying your teeth.

Restorative Dentistry - Dr. Bernstein has received extensive training in full mouth restoration at LVI, and he is one of a select few dentists trained to provide this service. Full mouth restoration can dramatically improve your bite as well as the appearance of your smile and your face.

drastic measures. Gaps, chips, crooked, unattractive or discolored teeth can all
be restored to a beautiful and completely natural looking smile.

More About Smile Makeovers - As dramatic as they are, smile makeovers with porcelain veneers are a minimally invasive dental procedure, not surgery. Porcelain veneers are strong, beautiful, natural looking, and they bond to your tooth with a very strong adhesive. They become a part of you and feel like your own teeth. You can eat with them, smile with them, and kiss with them!
