\n<\/a>Nothing turns heads faster and causing stares longer than
\nflashing a perfectly white smile. A bright, shiny smile builds confidence,
\nshows off your outgoing, joyful mood, and brings attention your way.
\nUnfortunately, certain foods and drinks will stain your teeth over time, and
\ngrowing older will naturally give them a yellow color. Do you want to avoid
\nothers seeing stains or a yellowish color forming on your incisors? Smile by Design<\/a>, a collective of dental
\nmasters<\/a>, can help restore your beautiful smile with simple cosmetic
\ndentistry services.<\/div>\n

\nCosmetic Dentistry? What\u2019s That?<\/h2>\n
\nCosmetic
\ndentistry<\/a> involves adjusting the aesthetics of your teeth. While a regular
\ncheckup with our dentist involves cleaning and providing a healthier mouth
\n(general dentistry), cosmetic involves only creating a more appealing look for
\nyour teeth. These services are all about enhancing your smile, giving patients
\nthe teeth they have been dreaming about without the hassle of trying to deal
\nwith store bought whitening kits. <\/div>\n

\nWhat Treatments are Offered with Cosmetic Dentistry?<\/h2>\n
\nThis practice offers several different options, all of which
\nare recommended by our expert doctor after a full mouth examination. Treatments
\nand procedures include:<\/div>\n
\n<\/div>\n
\nPorcelain Veneers: These are thin pieces of
\nporcelain, which are used to create a natural look for teeth, fixing
\nimperfections and giving a white glow. These porcelain pieces provide strength
\nto teeth \u2013 comparable to natural tooth enamel \u2013 while giving the patient the
\nshining smile they deserve.<\/div>\n
\n\u00b7        
\nIn-Office Whitening: Our doctor will apply a
\nlayer of high-concentration peroxide gel to your teeth in 15-20 minute
\nintervals over the course of an hour. In one visit, your teeth can become 10
\nshades whiter. <\/div>\n
\n\u00b7        
\nTake-Home Whitening Kits: If you don\u2019t have the
\ntime to spend an hour in our office, we can provide a take-home kit. The
\ndentist will instruct you on how much gel to apply and for how long, but the
\nprocess is very easy. You will simply place the gel on a custom dental tray,
\nthen insert the tray into your mouth. <\/div>\n

\nAre You Ready to get Whiter Teeth?<\/h2>\n

<\/p>\n

\nIf you are tired of hiding stains or yellow teeth, or if you
\njust want brighter pearly-whites, contact our office and schedule a consultation<\/a>
\nwith our professional staff. Our friendly team has its doors wide open to
\nVirginia Beach, VA, Norfolk, Chesapeake, and all of the surrounding areas. <\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
