1.  Dental bonding

- Minor tooth problems like chipping off from sides, gaps between teeth or crown lengthening can be corrected by the procedure of dental bonding.

2. Dental veneers or Lumineers

- These are thin shells that are made out of porcelain mostly and cover the front surfaces of the teeth.

- They are used to conceal minor dental defects like pits on teeth, chipped off teeth, abnormally small or thin teeth and likewise.

- These veneers are stuck to the teeth with the help of dental cement.  For thinner restoration materials, Dr Carrasco uses Lumineers as an alternative


3. Dental crowns

- Dental crowns cover or cap a tooth completely on all surfaces.
