Cosmetic Dentistry - Upper East Side, NYC & Englewood Cliffs, NJ

At Lee Dental & Facial, our restoration dentist offers exceptional ceramic crowns crafted from superb materials that mimic the translucency and strength of natural enamel. They’re custom-designed for a flawless fit, restoring both the function and beauty of your smile. Because crowns cover and protect damaged or weakened teeth, they help preserve your natural tooth structure and prevent further deterioration.

Dental bridges in Upper East Side, NYC, and Englewood Cliffs, NJ, replace one or more missing teeth by anchoring a false tooth (pontic) to adjacent crowns, thereby creating a seamless and stable restoration. While traditional bridges restore chewing function and prevent shifting of neighboring teeth, implant-retained bridges also preserve your underlying bone and eliminate modification of healthy teeth.

If you’re looking for transformative cosmetic dentistry on the Upper East Side, NYC, or in Englewood Cliffs, NJ, daVinci™ veneers offer a natural-looking solution to correct imperfections in front teeth, with little to no anesthesia.

They’re highly resistant to stains from coffee, red wine, and tobacco and come in four radiant shades, from “bright” to “incredibly bright.” Because the veneers are wafer-thin, normal eating and speaking are unaffected, but your teeth and gums must be healthy before placement.

Treatment typically requires two to three visits, beginning with a detailed evaluation and treatment planning by our restoration dentist, followed by minimal tooth preparation and the taking of impressions. Until the custom-fabricated veneers come back from the daVinci™ lab, you’ll wear temporary acrylic resin restorations to protect your tooth enamel.

If your teeth are stained, crooked, misaligned, misshapen, or gapped—or you’re simply unhappy with their appearance, Lumineers in Upper East Side, NYC, and Englewood Cliffs, NJ, are a popular cosmetic dentistry option in smile makeovers. Lumineers can be applied seamlessly over your existing teeth to create a beautiful, natural-looking smile.

Lumineers are placed using painless, minimally invasive techniques that typically require no shots and minimal removal of tooth enamel. Lumineers are fabricated exclusively by Apex Dental Laboratory Group in Lompoc, CA, by technicians who specialize in crafting aesthetic dental veneers.

Tooth discoloration is a common problem associated with smoking, chewing tobacco, coffee, tea, red wine, specific foods, medications, aging, and genetics. Although over-the-counter whitening strips, toothpaste, or trays are generally safe when used as directed, they lack the strength to remove deep-seated stains.

During a Zoom! Teeth Whitening session at Lee Dental & Facial, a special whitening gel is applied to your teeth several times and activated by the Zoom Advanced Power Lamp to break down stains and discoloration. The proprietary formula releases oxygen to lift surface stains while protecting enamel, boosting luster, and minimizing sensitivity. Teeth can be brightened up to eight shades in about 45 minutes, although results vary, and this method may not be ideal for deep stains or sensitive teeth.

Invisalign in Upper East Side, NYC, and Englewood Cliffs, NJ, is a gentler, nearly invisible orthodontic and cosmetic dentistry protocol for straightening teeth that eliminates the cumbersome brackets and wires required with traditional metal braces. The aligners are made of a BPA- and latex-free plastic called SmartTrack™ and are easy to remove during meals, daily oral hygiene, and special events!

The Invisalign process begins with a quick 3D digital scan using the iTero Element scanner, which creates a personalized treatment plan. Custom aligners are then 3D printed at the Invisalign lab based on precise algorithms that control every tooth movement. You need to wear aligners for 20–22 hours a day and switch out trays every two weeks. Treatment typically takes 12–18 months, after which you’ll wear the Vivera retainer to maintain your results.
