Smile Perfection in Ann Arbor

Ypsilanti low cost teeth whitening

The most difficult part of attaining perfection is finding something to do for an encore. -Author Unknown

We are perfectionists at Gary Sasaki DDS, MS where we create perfect smiles for our Ann Arbor cosmetic dentistry and smile makeover patients.

Here are some of the cosmetic dental procedures we use in smile makeovers at Gary Sasaki DDS, MS in Ann Arbor.

Implant Dentistry
Dental implants are the ultimate tooth restoration available in Ann Arbor, or anywhere else, for that matter. A tooth implant consists of a metal post that is inserted into your jawbone. The post replaces the root of the missing tooth.

After a few months, it meshes with your jawbone to provide the strength and integrity of a natural tooth. A base and natural-looking crown is permanently attached to the post. For most Ypsilanti patients with missing teeth, it is the preferred restoration. Implants can also be used to attach dentures and partial dentures for no-slip implant/denture combos.

Crowns
A mainstay of Ann Arbor cosmetic dentistry, dental crowns are more beautiful than ever. New fabrication technologies and materials have improved the aesthetics and strength of this restorative option.

Veneers
Porcelain veneers are a more conservative treatment than a full crown. This is a good choice for Ann Arbor patients whose teeth are structurally sound but have unsightly flaws such as discoloration, chips, cracks, or imperfect shape. Are you one of the many Ann Arbor teens or adults with dark tetracycline stains? Call us today at 734-482-7466 to say goodbye to tetracycline stains!

Inlays/Onlays
Inlays and onlays (indirect fillings) are designed and fabricated using dental CAD/CAM software. These fillings are strong, attractive, and precisely fitted to the cavity.

Tooth Whitening
Teeth bleaching is the crowning touch for a perfect smile. (It’s the only thing you need if you are a fortunate Ann Arbor man or woman with perfectly-shaped and aligned teeth.) No one has to live with dull or stained teeth. Call us today for a teeth whitening consultation at our Ann Arbor office.

Is a Perfect Smile Possible In Ann Arbor?

Saline Cosmetic Dentistry Are you considering a smile makeover in the Ann Arbor area? Are you skeptical of promises of a ‘perfect smile’ a ‘celebrity smile’ or ‘a dazzling, youthful smile’? Let’s talk about the most popular Ann Arbor cosmetic dental procedures and the results that can be expected.

Composite Veneers
The application of porcelain veneers at Gary Sasaki DDS, MS can remedy a multitude of aesthetic dental problems and is often a better cosmetic dental solution for candidates in Ann Arbor than dental bonding. Veneers can correct tooth chips, tooth cracks, minor tooth misalignment, tooth discoloration, unattractive tooth shape, and disproportionate tooth size. Can a porcelain veneer create a perfect tooth? While a veneer cannot fix a decayed tooth, it can turn an unsightly tooth into an aesthetically perfect tooth.

Tooth Bleaching
Ann Arbor tooth whitening is a non-invasive cosmetic dental treatment that dramatically improves a smile. However, some tooth whitening dentists will guarantee fantastic results for any patient that desires a whiter smile. At Gary Sasaki DDS, MS in Ann Arbor we only recommend tooth bleaching for clients that are good candidates for the process. If you have all-natural teeth that are dull or stained, tooth whitening will brighten your smile. If you have several dental crowns in the front of your mouth, or gums that have receded, conventional tooth-whitening may not improve your smile.

Call 734-482-7466 to schedule a tooth-whitening consultation.

Tooth-Colored Fillings
If you have a mouth full of metal fillings, you may be interested in tooth-colored fillings. To get an idea of how the inside of your mouth would look without metal, have someone without any fillings open their mouth. Do you remember when your mouth looked like that? Would you like to bring your smile back to its pre-filling appearance? It is possible with tooth-colored fillings at Gary Sasaki DDS, MS.

These are just a few of the cosmetic dental solutions that create perfect smiles for our Ann Arbor clients. You can see a complete list of our services at http://www.midentalspa.com.

Relieving Your Dental Anxiety At Gary Sasaki DDS, MS

Hello Ypsilanti dental blog visitors, welcome to the Gary Sasaki DDS, MS blog. I am Dr. Gary Sasaki and I specialize in cosmetic dentistry and dental implants.

A close friend of mine recently expressed fears about her upcoming full mouth rehabilitation.

I assured her that painful dental procedures are a thing of the past with modern Ypsilanti dentistry.

With the latest technology and anesthetics, restorative dental treatment is no more painful than receiving a filling. Most procedures can be completed in just a few short office visits.

My friend’s anxiety was diminished when she knew what to expect. If you have been neglecting your teeth because of fears or concerns about a particular procedure and have not been to your Ypsilanti cosmetic dentist recently, I encourage you to schedule an exam, cleaning, and consultation today. We are accepting new Ypsilanti dentistry patients at Gary Sasaki DDS, MS.

Veneers Create Stunning Smiles in Ann Arbor

Veneers Create Stunning Smiles in Ann Arbor Veneers have myriad applications in Ann Arbor cosmetic smile dentistry. With dental veneers, you can transform your smile without significant restorative dental work.

Is your tooth enamel worn and thin? Tooth-colored porcelain veneers have the translucency of healthy tooth enamel. Many Ann Arbor dental clients have received veneers to cover worn enamel. Some believe they look twenty years younger!

Have your teeth developed uneven edges? Tooth grinding, natural wear and other factors can roughen tooth edges. Veneers are a minimally invasive correction for uneven tooth edges. Veneers are a popular treatment for Ann Arbor cosmetic dentistry patients.

Do you have chips or cracks in your teeth? If your teeth are otherwise healthy, veneers provide a flawless tooth surface. Are your teeth yellow or gray? Veneers can fix that, too. Veneers can be fabricated in any shade to perk up your smile while still blending naturally with your skin tones.

Porcelain veneers are paper-thin, tooth-shaped covers that are affixed to the front of teeth. Traditional veneers required the removal of a thin layer of tooth structure. Prepless veneers are applied to unaltered teeth.

Veneers are strong, natural looking and one of the most affordable cosmetic dentistry procedures in Saline and Plymouth. Veneers are usually far less expensive than complete dental crowns, yet they are just as strong and beautiful.

Ann Arbor aesthetic dentists love veneers because they correct a multitude of tooth problems. At Gary Sasaki DDS, MS, we would be happy to show you what veneers can do for you. Gary Sasaki DDS, MS is located at 1900 Packard Rd. in Ann Arbor. We provide premium dental care for many of your friends and neighbors in the greater Ann Arbor area.

Why You Need a Genuine Cosmetic Dentist

Ann Arbor Teeth Bleaching An Ann Arbor cosmetic surgeon has specialized schooling in addition to the training a general surgeon completes. Likewise, a true cosmetic dentist has completed rigorous courses in addition to dental school. Of course, many Ann Arbor general dentists offer cosmetic dentistry treatment.

Teeth whitening, crowns, porcelain veneers, and dental bonding are some of the common procedures in the Ann Arbor, Michigan area.

In many cases, Ann Arbor general dentists achieve excellent results. However, there is a difference between adequate results and incredible results. Ann Arbor cosmetic dentists have the skills and experience to create absolutely beautiful smiles.

You have probably seen attractive front teeth dental crowns performed by a general dentist. They are often perfectly shaped, correctly aligned and pleasingly white. But have you ever seen front teeth crowns done by a true artist? The color, translucency, and texture take the crowns to the ultimate level of breathtaking beauty.

I am Dr. Gary Sasaki of Gary Sasaki DDS, MS in Ann Arbor. I would love to tell you the specifics about my experience and specific training in the specialty of cosmetic dentistry. I can show you photos of mediocre cosmetic procedures performed by competent general dentists and you can compare them with photos of some of my actual Ann Arbor cosmetic dentistry patients.

Versatile Veneers for a Vivid Smile

Affordable Cosmetic Dentistry in Ann Arbor Have you ever wished you could quickly attach perfectly shaped, dazzling white front surfaces to your teeth? Guess what? You can! With porcelain veneers, you can eliminate smile imperfections in just one visit to your Ann Arbor cosmetic dental office.

The porcelain veneer is one of the most versatile items in a Ann Arbor cosmetic dentist’s toolbox. Veneers turn unattractive smiles into perfect smiles with minimal disruption to existing tooth structure. They are quicker and usually less expensive than complete dental crowns but are made with the same strong, translucent porcelain.

It’s no that wonder that a very large percentage of people in the public eye have porcelain veneers. A Michigan actress can receive a perfect smile in the morning and appear on a talk show that evening. A supermodel can permanently remedy a discolored tooth and pose for photos right after leaving her Belleville dental office. An Ann Arbor television news anchorman can have his teeth perfectly aligned in a couple hours and report Michigan news that same day.

I am Dr. Gary Sasaki of Gary Sasaki DDS, MS in Ann Arbor, Michigan. I use veneers alone and in combination with crowns, inlays, onlays, and dental implants for dramatic smile makeovers. Perhaps porcelain veneers are the best route to your perfect smile.

Let’s talk. My office can be reached at 734-482-7466

We are located at 1900 Packard Rd. in Ann Arbor.

Celebrity Smiles in Michigan

Veneers in Ann Arbor How do celebrities obtain brilliant white smiles always ready for the red carpet or a close-up? Do they avoid coffee? Not likely. Every star-watching magazine is full of pictures of famous people holding Starbucks cups. Do they avoid tobacco? Some probably do, but many actors and fashion models with dazzling white smiles are smokers.

Very few people (famous and non-famous alike) with perfect teeth were born with them. (…Sure, no one is born with teeth, but you know what I mean.) Celebrities have perfect smiles because they have undergone cosmetic dentistry.

Guess what? You can also have a smile like a supermodel or television news anchor because Dr. Dr. Gary Sasaki at Gary Sasaki DDS, MS has as much experience and training in advanced cosmetic dentistry as any Hollywood cosmetic dentist.

Dr. Sasaki has been providing smile makeovers for Ann Arbor, Saline, Plymouth, and Belleville dental clients since 1971. Tooth whitening is the most affordable cosmetic dentistry procedure. Tooth whitening quickly perks up your teeth and makes you feel like smiling all the time!

Porcelain veneers are used often in cosmetic dental offices because they correct a myriad of problems. Veneers remedy misshapen teeth, cracks and chips, and discolored teeth. Teeth that have been worn down extensively can also be repaired with veneers. Preparing a tooth for a porcelain veneer is minimally invasive. The latest veneers do not require the removal of healthy enamel. Another plus: veneers are usually less expensive than complete dental crowns!

Tooth bleaching and veneers are just two of the many cosmetic dental procedures performed at Gary Sasaki DDS, MS. Schedule a Ann Arbor cosmetic dental consultation today by calling 734-482-7466. At our office, you will always receive VIP treatment, without the annoying paparazzi!

We look forward to helping you achieve a celebrity smile.

(Note that the celebrities pictured above are not affiliated with our site; they just have great smiles!)

Advanced Dentistry in Ypsilanti

The world of dentistry continues to advance at a rapid pace. If you have visited a Yipsilanti dentist in the past few years, you have probably noticed the things that make your visit more comfortable, such as the ability to watch TV or listen to music while receiving treatment.

What may not be as obvious are the advances in techniques, tools and materials. Top Ann Arbor and Ypsilanti dentists now use digital computer imaging which is safer than traditional x-rays. Dental technicians can store, retrieve and transmit digital images much easier than was possible with traditional x-ray film.

The use of air abrasion has created the opportunity for drill-less dentistry for cosmetic and restorative dental patients.

Another exciting development in cosmetic dentistry is the CAD-CAM technology that allows Ann Arbor cosmetic dentists to perform restorations in a single visit. The types of procedures that can be completed in one visit include crowns, fillings, inlays, onlays and veneers.

If you need a thorough exam or want to improve your smile with cosmetic dentistry, call Gary Sasaki DDS, MS at (734) 482-7466 to schedule a consultation. During your consultation, you can see before and after photos of some of our smile makeover clients. We would love to help you achieve the smile you have always wanted, and we have the tools, experience and technology to make that happen.
