Cosmetic Dentistry, Aesthetic Enhancements, Veneers, and Alternatives to Veneers
Whether you require teeth whitening, bonding or veneers, we will assess your cosmetic needs, and recommend the best treatment options to ensure that you leave our offices with a beautiful, natural and long-lasting smile.
Non-Invasive Cosmetic Enhancements
Dr. Urbankova practices unique non-invasive additive techniques without original tooth structure alteration. This is the most natural form of permanent smile enhancement bringing patients back their youth and natural beauty.
Esthetic Bondings
We use many minimally invasive techniques to enhance the natural beauty of your teeth. Esthetic bonding is another way for us to perfect your smile. It’s a procedure of sculpting resin that is attached to your teeth in order to restore or enhance them. With this technique, we use a biocompatible resin to fill in gaps or simply repair irregularities that exist, such as gaps, decayed and chipped teeth, uneven teeth or replacing aged discolored white fillings. This process can be completed in a single visit. After we shape and match the color of the attachment to your tooth, you will be on your way with the confidence in a perfectly natural smile. There is one important difference when we recommend esthetic bonding over veneers, and crowns: we do not change tooth integrity – we do not remove any existing tooth structure in the process of bonding so your existing tooth is completely unaffected and completely preserved. This technique is unique and developed by Dr. Urbankova.
Veneers
Veneers are another esthetic technique to enhance your smile. As the term suggests, veneers add a layer onto an existing structure, your teeth, in this case, in order to improve your smile. We use the highest quality porcelain veneers that will match your natural teeth and shape of your mouth; so you’ll never know that there is a thin layer of porcelain veneer covering a section of your teeth. Veneers however require some alteration to existing tooth structure.

Our Philosophy
We believe in prevention, early diagnosis and conservative therapies to protect and strengthen our patients' teeth and gums, and we center our care around that philosophy. By following these concepts, we are able to prolong the life span of our patients' teeth and gums.
Using new technologies, materials and very careful techniques, we are able to preserve our patient's teeth without the need for invasive procedures that can produce unsightly results. Our minimally invasive techniques preserve the structure and enhance esthetic of our patients' teeth, but more importantly, they ensure the patients' long-term oral health.
Our team's goal is to diagnose both periodontal disease (gum disease) and tooth decay early and prevent them from advancing. Utilizing specialized skills and state-of-the-art technology in a caring and compassionate atmosphere, we are able to successfully diagnose and treat a wide range of dental issues. We are highly committed to successful treatment and maintenance.
Our Mission
We have one common goal for our patients – preserving their teeth with long term success. We are committed to the highest level of care.
Minimally Invasive Dentistry
is a new approach focusing on conserving tooth structure rather than radically removing it.
Minimally invasive dentistry is a philosophy of oral health provision. It focuses on comprehensive preventive management and minimally invasive approaches to operative interventions. This approach is founded on conserving your tooth structure rather than radically removing it. Minimally invasive dentistry follows a new paradigm in dentistry, as it requires minimal surgical intervention, the use of modern adhesive materials according to stringent scientific principles, and prevention according to the individual patients needs. Minimally invasive treatment has long-term benefits. Rather than invasive treatments that often lead to loss of tooth structure, complications, tooth loss, and possible overall health problems, minimally invasive dentistry’s goal is to preserve your teeth. Such a philosophy ultimately leads to a prolonged life-span of the patient’s natural smile and whole body health. See examples of non-invasive additive treatments in esthetic dentistry.
Patient Centered Care
Minimally invasive dentistry is both patient specific and patient centered. Our specialists work closely together in decisions involved in saving and preserving our patients’ teeth.
Partnership With Patients
We take partnership in caring for our patients’ oral health. We teach our patients what they can do to preserve their teeth on their own and use latest techniques in oral care preventive management to achieve the best results possible.
