Bonding uses a special tooth-colored composite resin to repair minor damage and reshape teeth. Dr. Vivian Throop carefully matches the resin to your natural tooth color, so the repair blends seamlessly.

Invisalign for a straighter, natural smile

At City of Oaks Dental, we create a custom Invisalign plan that fits your smile and your life—helping you move toward a straighter, healthier smile at your own pace.
Dental crowns to restore strength and beauty
Sometimes, a tooth needs a little more support. If you have a broken or severely worn tooth, a dental crown might be the best option.
A crown covers the entire tooth, restoring its shape, size, and strength.
At City of Oaks Dental, we use beautiful, natural-looking materials that blend perfectly with your other teeth.
With a custom crown designed by Dr. Vivian Throop, your tooth will not only feel stronger, it will look like it was never damaged in the first place.

Prepless veneers: a gentle way to transform your smile
If you want a major smile upgrade without major dental work, prepless veneers might be a perfect fit.

Patients love how prepless veneers offer a way to refresh their smile with less stress, less time, and beautiful results that blend seamlessly.
