Invest in Your Smile with Pelican Dental
Cosmetic dentistry is not just about aesthetics. A smile you feel good about can truly change your life. Many patients report improvements in self-esteem, social confidence, and even career opportunities after enhancing their smile. When you invest in cosmetic dentistry, you are investing in yourself. Our team is committed to providing treatments that are comfortable, long-lasting, and tailored to your unique goals.
Personalized Cosmetic Dentistry Just for You
Because every smile is different, we create customized treatment plans based on a variety of factors, from facial shape to oral health.
Some patients want quick improvements, such as whitening or bonding. Others prefer a full smile transformation through veneers, crowns, or clear aligners. No matter your starting point or goals, we are here to guide you with clarity, compassion, and expertise.
Understanding the Benefits of Cosmetic Dentistry
Cosmetic dentistry is more advanced and accessible than ever before. With modern materials and technology, we can enhance your smile in subtle or dramatic ways while preserving the natural integrity of your teeth. These treatments not only improve appearance but can also support oral function, gum health, and long-term stability.
For example, correcting overlapping teeth can make brushing and flossing easier. Strengthening damaged teeth with crowns can prevent fractures. Restoring worn edges can improve your bite and reduce jaw discomfort.
Many patients are surprised to learn how much their smile influences how they feel day to day. A brighter smile can help you feel more comfortable in photos. Repaired chips or gaps can make speaking and laughing feel more natural. Straighter teeth can improve the way you eat and breathe. Cosmetic dentistry has the power to enhance more than aesthetics. It enhances quality of life.
Gingivectomy, Whitening, Veneers
Veneers: Porcelain and Direct Resin
Veneers are one of the most transformative cosmetic dental treatments available today. They correct a wide variety of imperfections in a way that looks seamless and refined. Veneers are thin, beautifully crafted shells that adhere to the front surfaces of your teeth. They are often used to correct discoloration, shape issues, chips, gaps, and minor misalignment. Many patients choose veneers when they want an elegant, uniform smile that still looks completely natural.
Traditional Porcelain Veneers:
Porcelain veneers are considered the gold standard in cosmetic dentistry. They are custom-made in a professional dental laboratory using high-quality ceramic materials. These materials mimic the shine, shape, and translucence of natural enamel, which helps porcelain veneers blend perfectly with your surrounding teeth.
Porcelain veneers are ideal if you want:
- A major cosmetic transformation
- Highly predictable and long-lasting results
- Durable restorations that resist chipping and staining
- A smooth and lifelike tooth surface that enhances your smile
The process for porcelain veneers typically involves two visits. During the first visit, we design your new smile and gently reshape a small layer of enamel to create a perfect fit. Temporary veneers may be placed while your permanent ones are being crafted. During the second visit, your porcelain veneers are bonded securely to your teeth to create a flawless, natural-looking smile. They typically last 10–15 years with proper care.
Direct Resin Veneers:
Direct resin veneers, also known as composite veneers, offer a more cost-effective and minimally invasive option. With this technique, tooth colored bonding material is sculpted directly onto your enamel to enhance shape, brightness, and symmetry. Resin veneers can be completed in a single appointment and require very little modification of the natural tooth.
Direct resin veneers are ideal if you want:
- A budget-friendly cosmetic enhancement
- A reversible or less permanent treatment
- Improvements completed in one visit
- A solution for small chips, discoloration, or uneven edges
Although resin veneers do not last as long as porcelain and may require occasional maintenance, they provide a beautiful improvement with a simple, painless process. Many patients choose direct resin veneers as an introductory cosmetic treatment or as a way to try out a new smile before committing to porcelain.
KöR Laser Whitening
If you want a noticeably brighter smile, KöR laser whitening is one of the most powerful whitening systems available today. Unlike store-bought strips or basic whitening trays that only remove surface-level stains, KöR treatments penetrate deeply into both the enamel and dentin, lifting years of discoloration from within the tooth.
KöR is especially effective for stains caused by:
- Coffee
- Tea
- Red wine
- Tobacco use
- Dark foods and sauces
- Age-related discoloration
- Certain medications
Many whitening systems struggle to improve teeth affected by stubborn internal staining, particularly staining caused by medications.
Benefits of KöR Laser Whitening:
Patients love KöR whitening before special events such as weddings, holidays, graduations, photoshoots, and reunions. It is a simple and highly rewarding way to refresh your smile.
What to Expect with KöR Whitening
KöR whitening involves a combination of in-office treatments and custom at-home whitening. This dual approach ensures deeper lighting and longer-lasting results. During your in-office whitening appointment, we use a special activation light that boosts the whitening gel and enhances its stain-lifting power. The process is safe, comfortable, and suitable for most patients.
Black Triangle Bonding Treatment
Black Triangle Rejuvenation
Black triangles are the small openings that sometimes appear between teeth near the gumline. These spaces can create an aged appearance, trap plaque, and make the smile look uneven. Black triangle rejuvenation is a minimally invasive solution that restores tooth shape and fills in these gaps using dental bonding.
Benefits of Black Triangle Rejuvenation:
- Creates a fuller, more youthful smile
- Prevents plaque buildup in hard-to-clean areas
- Completed in a single appointment
- Virtually painless and noninvasive
- Delivers instant cosmetic improvement
Patients appreciate this treatment because it provides impressive results without drilling, injections, or major structural changes. It is a simple step that can refresh your entire smile.
How Black Triangle Rejuvenation Works
Using a precise layering technique, we apply tooth colored composite material to build up the areas where structure has been lost. The material is then polished and shaped to create a smooth, seamless finish that blends beautifully with the natural teeth. This process closes the gap, enhances the overall harmony of your smile, and helps maintain better gum health.
DENTURES
Missing teeth can affect daily activities like eating, speaking, and smiling with confidence. Dentures offer a reliable and natural-looking way to restore your smile if you have lost several or all of your teeth. Our dentures fit securely, feel comfortable, and look beautifully lifelike.
Types of Dentures We Offer
We offer both full and partial dentures depending on your needs. Full dentures replace an entire arch of missing teeth, while partial dentures fill in smaller gaps using clasps or precision attachments. During your consultation, we evaluate your mouth, discuss your goals, and determine the most suitable type of restoration.
Advantages of Our Dentures:
We also offer ongoing care for denture adjustments, repairs, and hygiene. Properly cared for dentures can dramatically improve your quality of life and restore the confidence that comes with a complete smile.
PORCELAIN CROWNS
Porcelain crowns are an essential treatment for both restorative and cosmetic dentistry. They are used to rebuild teeth that are weakened, fractured, heavily decayed, or structurally compromised. A crown covers the entire surface of the tooth, restoring strength, appearance, and function.
Why Porcelain Crowns Are a Great Cosmetic Option
Porcelain crowns are crafted to match the exact color and shape of your natural teeth. They give a realistic appearance and can dramatically improve the look of damaged or imperfect teeth. Crowns can be used to correct cosmetic flaws such as discoloration, misshapen teeth, or old metal restorations that no longer look appealing.
Benefits of Porcelain Crowns
- Ideal for severely damaged or weakened teeth
- Seamlessly blends with natural enamel
- Restores stability and chewing ability
- Made of strong, long-lasting ceramic materials
- Custom shaped for a comfortable and precise fit
Crowns can work alongside implants, bridges, and veneers to create a cohesive and attractive smile. They provide both durability and beauty in a single restoration.
Invisalign Clear Aligners
Invisalign is a modern orthodontic system that straightens teeth using clear, comfortable aligners instead of traditional metal braces. These aligners are nearly invisible and allow you to enjoy orthodontic treatment without any dealing with visible wires or the pain of orthodontic adjustments.
How Invisalign Works
After taking digital impressions of your teeth, we create a series of custom aligners that gradually shift your teeth into their ideal positions. Each set is worn for one to two weeks before switching to the next. Because the aligners are removable, you can continue eating your favorite foods and easily maintain your oral health.

Invisalign is an excellent option for patients who want a straighter smile without the look or feel of brackets and wires.
