Question 1

Teeth Whitening

Accepted Answer

Over time, even healthy teeth can lose their brightness. Everyday habits like coffee, tea, red wine, and smoking can leave stains that brushing alone won’t remove. Natural aging can also make enamel appear darker or more yellow. Professional whitening is one of the simplest and most effective ways to refresh your smile.

Unlike store-bought strips or kits, professional whitening is customized to your smile. That means safer materials, reduced risk of sensitivity, and even results that look natural. Depending on your goals, we may recommend in-office whitening for fast, dramatic results or custom take-home trays for a more gradual approach.

Who it helps:
 • Patients with stains from food, drinks, or tobacco
 • Adults looking for a fast cosmetic refresh
 • Anyone preparing for a special event or milestone

Benefits:
 • Safe and effective brightening
 • Results stronger than over-the-counter options
 • Boosts overall confidence

Professional whitening at Evergreen Family Dentistry helps you achieve a brighter, fresher smile you’ll feel proud to share.

Question 2

Veneers

Accepted Answer

Veneers are thin, custom-made shells that bond to the front of your teeth. They are one of the most versatile cosmetic options, used to correct chips, close gaps, reshape uneven teeth, or cover deep stains that whitening cannot address.

Each veneer is carefully designed to match your smile, balancing natural esthetics with long-term durability. Many patients choose veneers when they want a lasting change that goes beyond whitening or bonding. With proper care, veneers can provide a beautiful smile for many years.

Who it helps:
 • Patients with chipped, worn, or uneven teeth
 • Individuals with permanent stains or discolouration
 • Anyone wanting a uniform, natural-looking smile

Benefits:
 • Transforms both shape and colour of teeth
 • Long-lasting cosmetic solution
 • Custom-designed for a natural fit

If you’re looking for a dramatic but natural enhancement, veneers at Evergreen can give you the confident smile you’ve been waiting for.

Question 3

Composite Bonding

Accepted Answer

Composite bonding is a minimally invasive treatment that uses tooth-coloured resin to repair or reshape teeth. The resin is sculpted directly onto the tooth, then polished to blend seamlessly with your natural enamel.

Bonding is an excellent choice for smaller cosmetic improvements—such as fixing a chipped tooth, closing a small gap, or smoothing worn edges. While it isn’t as durable as veneers, bonding is more affordable and usually requires little to no removal of enamel, making it a conservative option.

Good for: patients with small chips, cracks, or cosmetic flaws.
Benefits: quick treatment, usually done in one visit; cost-effective; preserves natural tooth structure.

Question 4

Invisalign® Clear Aligners

Accepted Answer

Crooked or crowded teeth can make you feel self-conscious about your smile and may also affect your oral health. Invisalign® offers a modern way to straighten teeth without the appearance of traditional braces.

Using a series of clear, removable aligners, Invisalign® gently moves your teeth into alignment over time. Because the aligners are nearly invisible and can be removed for eating and brushing, treatment fits easily into your lifestyle. Adults and teens alike appreciate Invisalign® for its subtle appearance and predictable results.

Who it helps:
 • Adults and teens wanting straighter teeth without braces
 • Patients with mild to moderate alignment issues
 • People looking for a flexible, low-maintenance option

Benefits:
 • Clear and nearly invisible aligners
 • Comfortable and removable for convenience
 • Easier to maintain oral hygiene than traditional braces

If you’ve been considering orthodontics but want a discreet alternative, Invisalign at Evergreen Family Dentistry can help you achieve the smile you want with comfort and flexibility.

Question 5

Crowns

Accepted Answer

While crowns are often recommended to restore damaged teeth, they can also serve an important cosmetic role. A crown can improve the appearance of a tooth that is misshapen, discoloured, or uneven, while also restoring its strength.

Modern crowns are carefully crafted to match the colour, shape, and translucency of natural teeth. This makes them an excellent choice when you need both cosmetic improvement and functional durability.

Good for: teeth with large fillings, fractures, or esthetic concerns.
Benefits: restores strength and appearance, durable long-term solution, blends naturally with surrounding teeth.

Question 6

Dental Implants

Accepted Answer

Dental implants are a durable and natural-looking solution for replacing missing teeth. They restore both appearance and function by anchoring securely to the jawbone — allowing you to eat, speak, and smile with confidence.

At Evergreen Family Dental, we offer a range of implant options designed to meet your unique needs:

Single Dental Implants
 A reliable solution for one missing tooth. Each implant is topped with a custom crown that looks, feels, and functions like your natural teeth.

Immediate Implants (Same-Day Placement)
 In some cases, an implant can be placed immediately after an extraction — reducing the number of visits and helping maintain bone and gum health.

Implant-Retained Dentures
 For patients who wear dentures, implants can improve comfort and stability. A few secure anchors hold your denture firmly in place, preventing slipping while you eat or speak.

Fixed Implant Dentures (All-on-4 / All-on-6)
 A permanent, full-arch solution for patients missing multiple teeth. Fixed implant dentures provide a secure, natural-looking restoration that stays in place — no removal required.

Each treatment plan is designed around your goals for comfort, function, and aesthetics — helping you enjoy a healthy, confident smile that lasts.

Question 7

Botox for Cosmetic Enhancement

Accepted Answer

Botox is often associated with medical or therapeutic uses, but it also offers cosmetic benefits that complement dental care. It can be used to soften lines around the mouth, reduce wrinkles in the forehead or brow, and create a more balanced overall appearance.

Because dentists are highly trained in facial anatomy, they are well positioned to deliver Botox treatments safely and with precision. Many patients appreciate the convenience of addressing both their smile and surrounding aesthetics in one setting.

Who it helps:
 • Patients wanting to soften fine lines and wrinkles
 • Adults seeking a refreshed, natural look
 • Individuals wanting a quick, non-surgical option

Benefits:
 • Smooths common lines with natural results
 • Complements your dental smile makeover
 • Quick appointments with minimal downtime

If you want your smile to feel as youthful as it looks, cosmetic Botox at Evergreen Family Dentistry can help you achieve a natural, refreshed appearance.

Question 8

Gummy Smile (Gum Contouring)

Accepted Answer

Sometimes a smile can appear “gummy,” where more gum tissue shows than teeth. Gum contouring, also called gum reshaping, gently removes and sculpts excess gum tissue to create a more balanced look.

This simple procedure can make a dramatic difference in your smile by highlighting the natural size and shape of your teeth. For patients who feel self-conscious about excess gum tissue, gum contouring offers a safe and lasting solution.

Who it helps:
 • Patients who feel self-conscious about a “gummy” smile
 • Those looking for a more balanced tooth-to-gum ratio
 • Individuals wanting minimally invasive solutions
Benefits:
 • Creates a more even, harmonious smile
 • Enhances overall aesthetics
 • Often achieved with gentle, simple procedures

If you’ve been hiding your smile due to excess gum tissue, gummy smile treatment at Evergreen can restore balance and confidence.

Question 9
