Utilizing state-of-the-art equipment and advanced techniques has made many procedures of cosmetic dentistry in Ocala affordable and fast. Teeth whitening, for example, can be completed using a blue light to harden the finishing coat of materials after the color has been improved by several shades of white. That makes the treatment lasts longer and reduces the time and cost of treatments throughout the year. Porcelain veneers and custom crafted dentures can now be completed in the on-site dental laboratory instead of being sent out to a separate laboratory. That saves time and money, as well as ensures accuracy. Repairs can be completed in-house as well.

A new machine is available that can make a ceramic crown in the office in approximately one hour. An electronic hand tool makes a digital impression of the space and a crown is created while the preparation dental work is getting done. One office visit is all it takes to complete a procedure that typically took two visits, required a temporary crown, and included shipping costs to and from the laboratory location. The time between visits was a week or two to allow the crown to be made and shipped. Fitting appointments into a busy schedule can be difficult, so reducing the need for visits in half for cosmetic dentistry in Ocala is convenient for both patients and dentists.

Patients can have annoying and unsightly wrinkles around the mouth, or any other areas of the face, taken care of at the same time they get their teeth cleaned.
