Cosmetic dentistry has become more and more common in recent years and for some people, it has become confusing too. Essentially, cosmetic dentistry entails the procedures and treatments used to improve the appearance of a person's teeth and smile. These treatments may include teeth whitening, dental crowns, veneers, dental implants, and tissue or gum grafting. In a way, all dentists are cosmetic dentists, so it is important to understand the procedures being presented and the team who is offering them.
At Honce Dental Centre, we have invested in the best technology available to help our patients get a confident smile. Dr. Mark Honce was among the first dentists in the Okanagan Valley to offer dental implants and CEREC porcelain crowns. To date, he has completed thousands of these procedures; they call it a dental practice for a reason, and Dr. Mark has had a lot of practice!
