Brilliant Smiles was started twenty six years ago with my vision of giving our community a dental office which provided the highest standard of dental care along with top notch customer service. That vision has not changed. But our knowledge of how oral health affects the rest of the body has increased our focus.
In todays dentistry, dental clinicians are encouraged to focus on overall health and wellness. Current research shows direct links between mouth bacteria and serious health problems like heart disease, stroke, diabetes, headaches, cancer, rheumatoid arthritis, jaw pain, pregnancy and bad breath.
At Brilliant Smiles our journey, which has included extensive continuing education, has led us to becoming advocates for your overall health and wellness. Our dental work will continue to be the highest of quality and our customer service will remain five star; however, in our practice today you will get a team of excellent clinicians who want to see you live healthier and have a higher quality of life.
Our office knows that a healthy body starts with a healthy mouth. Current research shows a link between certain mouth bacteria and serious health problems like heart disease, stroke, diabetes, headaches, jaw pain, and bad breath. We would like to share our standards for a healthy mouth.
A smile is one of the first things people notice about you and Brilliant Smiles is committed to helping you achieve your brightest smile ever! We offer different options for whitening your teeth. These include in-office KoR whitening and take-home teeth whitening with custom trays.
Both options use a whitening gel to penetrate the outer layer of the teeth and whiten the layer directly underneath. Whitening procedures work best with clean and healthy teeth. Ask one of our dentists which option is best for you.
Veneers are very thin shells, often created from porcelain, which fit over your teeth to correct cosmetic dental flaws. Your custom made dental veneers will fit your smile comfortably and look natural and radiant. Veneers may be a great way to get the smile you have always wanted.
