Veneers are made of a thin layer of ceramic which is bonded onto the tooth structure much like a fake fingernail. In many cases Dr. Coleman does not have to remove any tooth structure, we call this procedure “Non-Prep” Veneers. Veneers can correct issues such as discoloration, chipped teeth, gaps and misshapen teeth.
The average life expectancy for veneers is 15-25 years. Dr. Coleman has had some cases last up to 35 years. To maintain your veneers, you would need to brush and floss just like you do your natural teeth.
We can design, manufacture and deliver your veneers on the same day. We call this “Same-Day Veneers”. If you have existing veneers, we need to remove the old veneers first and then design, manufacture and deliver your new veneers the same day.
The ceramic materials we use are like a fine porcelain plate. Food and drink debris will build up on them. Good oral hygiene and visiting the dentist regularly will help to keep your investment looking great for many years.
Essentially, we take your smile and “makeover” your smile utilizing bonding, bleaching or other materials that show you what your smile can look like.
In office and take-home bleaching treatment. The best outcome will be to do both.
Results will depend on your diet; smoking, coffee, wine, tea and blue berries will shorten the life of the process, and you’ll need to do touchups more often.
In today’s world, gels are formulated to help reduce any sensitivity. However, some patients may experience mild discomfort or sensitivity, but this will dissolve on its own. Desensitizing toothpaste or fluoride gels can also be used to help diminish any sensitivity after the treatment.
A series of clear removable aligners are fabricated to move teeth into the position we desire. Consistent use is a big part of achieving great results.
Treatment plans will be tailored to everyone’s individual needs. On average, you will see results within 10 months.
The majority of adults choose Invisalign over traditional braces. Due to the comfort and ease of use.
Dental bonding is a safe, effective and affordable way to help achieve your desired smile. A tooth-colored composite resin is placed on your tooth to reshape and recontour your tooth.
Bonding materials are not as durable as ceramic materials. Bonding can chip or crack but is easy to repair.
Bonding is not as stain resistant as a porcelain veneer. It will require a higher level of maintenance.

I’ve been a satisfied patient of Dr. Coleman since 1990. During that time, I’ve become a huge fan of everyone at Coleman Dental.

Truly the dental group with a heart. Thanks for taking such good care of me and my family throughout the years!

I’ve been Dr. Coleman’s patient for over 30 years. He’s helped me through all the conditions that can commonly occur in adults. Last year, he replaced my veneers and everyone now thinks I’m 15 years younger. The customer service is second to none. I’m an orthopedic surgeon and my clinic has adopted much of their approach to patient centered care. I can’t speak highly enough about Dr. Coleman and his staff.
I visited Dr. Coleman for a dental repair. The entire process was seamless and stress-free.

Dr. Coleman and his staff have been excellent. Very friendly and courteous and really make you feel comfortable.

I can truly say it has been the best dental experience ever!
I am a 30+ year patient of Dr. Coleman. He and his staff are exceptional. Although he is educated and skilled in, and utilizes the latest dental technology in his practice, his approach to treatment is conservative. I highly value his knowledge and conservative approach. He is hard-working, compassionate and truly cares for his patients. I highly recommend him.
Great dentist and staff. I have been to a lot of dentists and tried Dr. Coleman because I wasn’t happy with the others. I needed someone to repair a botched crown from my previous dentist. The required root canal he performed went perfect! Since then I’ve had several more crowns and couldn’t be happier. All the crowns are done in-house and high quality. Thank you so much for fixing my teeth, you are the best!
I have gone to Dr. Coleman for over 10 years. He is the best! He confidently tells me what is about to happen and is more than aware of how I am feeling. His entire staff makes me feel comfortable even though I have a fear of dentists. I give the entire office 5 stars!
Broke one of my teeth and I needed a crown before the root was damaged. Dr. Coleman worked me into his busy schedule the next day and made the crown while I was there. In and out in about 2 hours! The staff and Dr. Coleman made an unpleasurable situation as pleasant as possible. I have been going to Dr. Coleman for MANY years and highly recommend him!!!
