Unless you’re born with splendid dental genes, you may have some feeling of disaffection with your smile. That’s why taking control of your smile’s appearance can be such and empowering moment. The challenge is finding a knowledgeable professional that can change an unsatisfactory smile into a winning one. Dr. Pollack has been designing beautiful smiles for more than thirty years. His approach to dentistry is a mixture of complete dedication and state of the art techniques. His style, including step by step explanations and intra-oral camera photos, seem more like collaboration than a traditional doctor/patient relationship. In particular, Dr. Pollack offers patients a “Smile Analysis” in which he evaluates your smile’s strengths and suggests ways to enhance it. Then, a new look and procedures to achieve it are proposed. The “Smile Makeover” is considered complete only when the patient is entirely satisfied.

If you absolutely don’t want braces, porcelain veneers and other cosmetic dentistry procedures at our Millburn, New Jersey-based practice, can achieve a terrific look, giving teeth a straighter appearance and a better size, shape, and color. Porcelain veneers are bonded to the front of your teeth in no time at all, and they can dramatically improve the look of your smile in just a few short visits.

Porcelain crowns and inlays and onlays are some of the techniques we offer to help restore unsightly teeth and improve your smile. For example, composite or porcelain inlays are tooth-colored materials used to fill cavities and protect the tooth against fractures. Large areas of decay or damage can be filled and covered with an onlay made of precious metal composites or porcelain. Porcelain crowns act like a cap to cover the entire tooth. For more information on these and other procedures, please review the patient education on the cosmetic dentistry, restorative dentistry, and general/preventative dentistry pages of this website.

If your gums continually bleed after you brush, they are inflamed and maybe even infected. This can lead to bone loss and tooth loss over time, and the condition should be evaluated immediately. The dental hygienists at our cosmetic dentistry practice in Millburn, New Jersey are trained in periodontal disease treatment.

At Beautiful Smiles by Dr. Harold A. Pollack, we offer different systems for teeth whitening. You can bleach at home, wearing a solution-containing tray for one hour a day or using another system that you wear overnight. Home teeth whitening should be supplemented with weekly supervision by the dentist. If you prefer an in-office teeth whitening, a BriteSmile® treatment can really jumpstart the process, lightening your teeth as much as four to nine shades in the course of one visit. For best results, we recommend that in-office teeth whitening at our cosmetic dentistry practice in New Jersey be followed up by at-home treatment.
