Cosmetic Dentistry
We’re Building Unforgettable Smiles
If you want a brighter, straighter, more attractive, youthful smile, you aren’t alone! Cosmetic dentistry is intensely popular, and rightfully so. In a matter of days, you can enjoy your dream smile. Friends, coworkers, and strangers will say things like, “Did you get your hair cut?” or “Are you working out?” You’ll look sensational, and as a result, you’ll feel sensational. Dr. Gary and Dr. Greg Sanchez have experience and training in many cosmetic dentistry procedures…
Teeth Whitening
Coffee, tea, tobacco, medications, and age can discolor tooth enamel. If your teeth have a brown or yellow hue, consider whisking away those stains with professional-grade teeth whitening. Sanchez Dental Associates offers various systems for dramatically brightening teeth. You’ll look younger and feel more confident after your teeth-whitening session.
Veneers
Probably the most complete cosmetic solution, porcelain veneers cover front teeth to mask chips, stains, gaps, misalignments, and other imperfections. Because each veneer is handcrafted by a dental ceramist, details like color and shape are integral to the custom design. If you want a “new smile,” talk with cosmetic dentists Dr. Gary and Dr. Greg Sanchez about stain resistant porcelain veneers.
Bonding
In some cases, a chipped or stained front tooth may only need minor cosmetic repair. Dr. Gary and Dr. Greg often recommend bonding. With a small amount of dental resin, tinted to blend with a tooth’s coloring, the dentist can renew your tooth’s full beauty and shape. Bonding can also close gaps between teeth.
White Restorations
Metal dental work looks unnatural and can significantly age a person. Today, cosmetic dentists use white porcelain crowns and tooth-colored bonding instead of precious metals and amalgam. Modern, durable dental materials are completely safe, and they’ll allow you to maintain the integrity of an all-white smile. If you’d like your metal crowns and fillings replaced, discuss the options with Dr. Gary or Dr. Greg at your consultation.

“When I was 12 years, old I knocked out my two front teeth on the steering wheel of a jet ski. That was the beginning of my journey for a perfect smile. It was not until I was 18 years old that I received my permanent set of caps and veneers. I remember thinking the night before they were put in, tomorrow this long process will finally be over. What I didn't realize was how this new smile would impact my life. The first time I saw my new teeth I could hardly believe they weren't natural teeth. Every contour and edge was beautifully shaped, I felt like a movie star. My fondest memory of the entire process was when Dr. Gary was shaping my teeth. He pulled out a mold of perfect teeth and contoured, shaved and shaped each of my teeth to match. To me that was so cool because he wanted to make sure what he was doing was perfect and that's exactly how it turned out. I do a good deal of public speaking and I always smile right before I start because it gives me confidence. I also participated in the Miss New Mexico Miss USA Pageant in January 2009 and never had to think twice about smiling on stage or for any camera. I really do love showing off my teeth! When people comment on my smile I always tell them to go to Dr. Gary because he is simply the best.” –Rachel
“As I approach my 62nd birthday, the skin on my face is sagging, and I now understand what the term ‘turkey neck’ means. Although these problems can be fixed with expensive cosmetic surgery, it is hard to justify for the sake of vanity alone. But I have always believed in taking care of my teeth. My mother lost her teeth before she was thirty years old and I do not want to wear dentures. A few years ago I decided to change dentists, and I chose Dr. Greg. I explained to him how important it was to me to keep my own teeth. After a thorough exam, he showed me a plan to improve my dental health. It took me a while but after completing the procedures in Dr. Greg's plan, my teeth and gums are much healthier. More surprising is how much better I feel and how many compliments I get on my ‘pretty’ smile. Trust me, as you get older you need to smile all the time, because aging is not for sissies.
"I want to take this opportunity to tell everyone who works at Sanchez Dental how much I appreciate the professionalism and courtesy that is their everyday normal operating procedure. From the minute I step in the door to the minute I leave, everyone is happy, they know exactly why I'm there, I never have to wait more than a minute or two, and most important of all, they let me know that they appreciate and value my business. I feel special when I'm there. Thanks to all of you.” –Anita
