Teeth Whitening

Summerside Dental offers two different whitening methods. For 90 minutes, in-office, we use a laser-activated teeth whitener. The other option is a take-home tray custom-tailored to fit your mouth and your particular dental needs. Both options are safe and effective and easily fit into part of your regular dental routine.

If you have any questions about which method is best for you, don't hesitate to reach out to our office at 780-665-4833.

Aligners and Retainers

If you’re suffering from crooked teeth and have been wanting to straighten them without having to use metal braces, then our Invisalign removable aligners might be the right choice for you! Upon consultation, our team will assess your needs, see if you qualify for Invisalign, and provide you with options. Having straight teeth will not only build your confidence but can also lead to better dental health and reduce your risk of gum disease and impacted teeth.

We offer braces and Invisalign for those stubborn situations that need a little more care.

Crowns and Veneers

If you feel like something is missing from your smile, whether it’s part of a tooth or the newfound presence of a gap, we can replace that missing piece using crowns or veneers. Cosmetic dental bonding materials place a huge emphasis on improving the appearance of your teeth. From recreating the natural look of teeth to being an alternative to dental implants, these cosmetic dental options can provide your teeth with the natural and aesthetic appearance you’ve always wanted.

Frequently Asked Questions

Why choose Summerside Dental in Edmonton for cosmetic dentistry?

Summerside Dental has been an established and reliable dental facility in Edmonton since 2007. We offer our patients outstanding care through personalized dental solutions. Whatever your priorities are, we will make sure to incorporate them into your dental plan so you can achieve your best smile and upgrade your confidence!

What are the differences between crowns and veneers?

While crowns and veneers are both great options to finish off that perfect smile, they use different methods to get the job done.

Veneers are slim coverings that are placed over the surface of the tooth. They are perfect for covering up any small imperfections like unsightly stains, chips, and even gaps in your smile. There are even different kinds of materials that can be used, which include removable varieties.

Crowns on the other hand are hollow caps shaped to cover your tooth. A dentist uses a crown to help restore a damaged tooth. Small parts of the enamel will need to be removed before bonding and placing the new crown on the tooth.

What kinds of crowns are available?

When you get a crown, there are several different kinds of materials that are used, depending on the situation. Some of the most common include:

  • Gold crowns
  • All-porcelain crowns
  • Resin crowns
  • Porcelain fused to metal crowns
  • Zirconia crowns

The right kind of crown will depend on the condition of your tooth and the available treatments. If you have any questions about the various materials and what is best for you, reach out to us at our office today at 780-665-4833.

How long do veneers last?

The lifespan of your veneers can vary, but the better you care for your oral health, the longer the veneers will last! On average, they last between 10 and 15 years. The best way to ensure your veneers stay vibrant and healthy is by maintaining your oral health and hygiene. Use a soft toothbrush, floss often, and book frequent dental check-ups. All of these steps will help ensure your new smile last as long as possible.

Will getting cosmetic dental services reduce my pain?

While cosmetic dentistry can bring pain relief from overcrowding or cracked teeth, it is not a cure for more serious issues such as TMJ or infections. Maintaining regular dental hygiene is the easiest way to provide a cure before the pain starts, and we have the tools to get you back on track! Get in touch with our Edmonton cosmetic dentistry team by calling us at 780-665-4833.

Will my dental insurance cover cosmetic dentistry?

Your insurance plan is not likely to cover every single oral procedure. However, that doesn't mean you can’t afford it. Summerside Dental offers financial plans for cosmetic dental services to help patients achieve their ideal smile at affordable prices. As well, we will work with you to make sure you get the best benefits possible with your insurance plan.

What are the benefits of cosmetic dentistry?

There are many benefits to choosing to undergo cosmetic dentistry. Although it doesn’t directly help tooth function, it can have an overall positive impact on both your teeth and confidence. Some benefits include having a straighter smile, more confidence and self-esteem, a youthful look, and better dental hygiene. If cosmetic dentistry is something you are interested in, contact us to schedule an appointment today!

Should I get veneers or white fillings to improve the appearance of my smile?

Veneers are like paper-thin shells covering the entire front surface of your tooth, so they are indicated for badly cracked, severely discoloured, or misshapen teeth. White fillings are smaller for rebuilding mild chips, wear facets or cosmetically altering the tooth in a reversible way — such as closing spaces or gaps between teeth. White fillings are also less expensive and invasive than veneers. Phone us at our Edmonton clinic at 780 665 4833 to schedule intraoral camera photos to be taken for a smile analysis consultation.

My front teeth are worn down. What can a cosmetic dentist do for me?

Before your teeth can be rebuilt with fillings or veneers the underlying cause of the problem needs to be addressed — phone us at 780 665 4833 to schedule a complete dental examination You may be grinding habitually during the day, or posturing your lower jaw forward at night to keep your airway open while you sleep.

A 3-dimensional radiograph should be taken to see the volume of your airway, along with a sleep study to determine your oxygen levels at night. If either a CPAP, sleep appliance, or night guard is needed then that treatment is timed in conjunction with restoring your worn teeth.

What are the best options for whitening my teeth in Edmonton?

Most patients achieve the best results with our 90-minute in-office laser-activated whitening. You may prefer self-paced whitening at home, which is possible with our take-home whitening gel that requires custom-made dental trays. Phone us at 780-665-4833 to schedule a consultation to verify whether you are a good candidate for in-office or take-home whitening.
