Crowns : Caps that cover the teeth if decay is extensive. Bridges : Cover gaps between teeth. Inlays : Ceramic material that is bonded to the tooth to cover unsightly fillings and for added support. Veneers : Thin layers of porcelain that is bonded to the front of the teeth for alignment, or to improve their color or form. Tooth Whitening : A process that lightens discolored enamel and dentin.
