Cosmetic Dentistry, Dental Articles, Lancaster & Britt, Restorative Dentistry, Veneers

At Dentistry by Angela Britt, we offer a number of cosmetic dentistry treatments that can bring about any change you would love to see in your smile. When we meet with a patient and they express that they are interested in improving or changing their smile, we examine the state of their oral health. We then speak with the patient to see what their thoughts are and the direction they would like to go with the appearance of their teeth. Some patients may have an idea of what their dream smile looks like, but before that happens, we have to make some improvements to their oral health, such as a treatment to restore the function of the teeth. One popular request from patients is that they want to have a uniform smile that rivals that of their favorite movie star or celebrity. For these patients, we typically recommend veneers.

Dental Articles, Education, General Dentistry, Lancaster & Britt

When patients visit our office for a routine hygiene examination, they are always concerned about the state of their teeth and if there are any signs of decay.

It is actually the strongest substance in the body, but it is not indestructible, especially if it is not being cared for properly. In fact, it is quite easy to damage your tooth enamel.
