The technology is proven safe, so you never have to worry about the health of your teeth and gums.

Enjoy the Full Benefits of a Gorgeous Smile with Porcelain Veneers
May 2, 2014
An open, attractive smile is among the most desirable facial features a person can have, conveying happiness, confidence, and even success in the professional world. If your teeth are less than perfect, however, flawed by stains or cracks in the enamel, you may feel hesitant to share your smile with the people who matter most. At the State College, PA dental practice of Dr. Chris J. Devlin, we offer a variety of cosmetic dentistry solutions for every need, including customized porcelain veneers.
How Do Porcelain Veneers Work?
Porcelain veneers are thin, durable, stain-resistant shells of dental porcelain that are customized to fit the precise shape and size of your natural teeth. They are capable of completely transforming your smile, covering common cosmetic imperfections in a way that still looks entirely natural. First, Dr. Devlin will take detailed impressions of your teeth to ensure a comfortable, flawless fit. These measurements will be sent to a specialized lab where your custom veneers will be crafted just for you.
When your porcelain veneers are bonded to the surfaces of your teeth, you’ll walk out of our office with a completely revitalized new smile. Veneers are used to cover a variety of issues, including:
- Chips and cracks
- Mild to moderate crookedness and/or crowding
- Teeth that are too small or too large in relation to the rest of your smile
- Deep staining and discoloration
- Spacing issues, like gaps between teeth

If you’d like to experience the innumerable benefits of a straighter, whiter, more confident smile, Dr. Devlin and our team want to help. Contact our office in State College, PA and schedule your appointment today to find out more about porcelain veneers and our other cosmetic dentistry services.

Discreet Orthodontic Care with Invisalign
December 28, 2012
Are your teeth crooked or have gaps? Have you been living with it because you don’t want metal braces? Well, dental technology has evolved and Invisalign from Dr. Chris Devlin could be just what you’ve been waiting for!
Invisalign uses clear braces technology to straighten your teeth without the metal or irritation associated with traditional braces. It works by using a series of clear alignment trays to gradually straighten your teeth.
The clear trays are virtually invisible, thus giving you self-confidence about your appearance while your teeth gradually straighten. Also, you have the freedom to remove them for important occasions, for eating, and for cleaning. Your teeth will still be straightened while giving you added flexibility for your life.
Your treatment will start with a consultation at Dr. Devlin’s State College dental office, where impressions of your teeth will be made and used to model the series of clear alignment trays. Every few weeks you’ll switch to a new alignment tray, gradually straightening your teeth.
Invisalign could be just the solution that you’ve been waiting for. This clear braces solution will give you the straighter teeth you want without the visibility of traditional braces.
Interested in learning more about Invisalign or wanting to set up a consultation? Call us today to schedule a visit with Dr. Devlin. Our State College dental office serves patients from Bellefonte, Centre Hall, Altoona, and beyond.
The Artistic Side of Dentistry
September 13, 2012
In our last post we looked at how cosmetic care can address your needs for a more functional smile. Today’s we’d like to add onto that by discussing the artistic side of dentistry.
When you think about dentistry, do you ever think about the level of artistry it takes to design and complete a smile makeover? If you do, it’s probably not the first thing that comes to your mind. And yet the truth is that designing and crafting a new smile takes a genuinely artistic eye.
That’s because, when it comes to crafting a smile makeover, dentists like Dr. Devlin of State College have to think imaginatively and they have to understand what makes a smile aesthetically appealing. It takes both of these—imaginative thinking and an appreciation for aesthetics—to really make a smile makeover successful.
At Dr. Devlin’s dental office in State College, that’s what you’ll find. From the very first moment when you come to see us for your consultation, we’ll be putting our imaginations to work to find the best solution for your needs. Then, once we know which of our cosmetic and restorative services will benefit you the most, we can begin designing your smile according to traditional rules of aesthetics. The results will be stunning and life-changing.
For a list of our services, including our cosmetic dentistry services, we invite you to explore our website, where you’ll also find more information about Dr. Devlin and his great team.
Call us today if you’re ready to schedule a visit with Dr. Devlin. Our State College dental office serves patients from Bellefonte, Centre Hall, Altoona, and beyond.
Cosmetic Care That Addresses Function
August 7, 2012
Often, when a doctor or patient talks about cosmetic dentistry, the focus is completely on appearance. Services like teeth whitening, porcelain veneers, and cosmetic bonding all do a great job of creating whiter, healthier –looking smiles, but that’s where they stop. None of them addresses the issue of functionality.
Thankfully, though, there are other services that do. At Dr. Chris J. Devlin’s State College dental office, we offer multiple services designed to meet a combination of cosmetic and restorative needs. Those services include:
With each of these great services, providing cosmetic care is just the tip of the iceberg. Just as important is restoring a smile’s functionality. That means improving the patient’s ability to speak clearly and to enjoy healthy foods that might be hard to eat with missing teeth. By doing these, Dr. Devlin can help his patients from State College and beyond improve their overall wellbeing and enjoy a better quality of life.
But which of these services is most right for you?
If you’d like to know which cosmetic-restorative service will do the most to help your smile, Dr. Devlin and his team would be happy to help you. Call our State College office today to schedule your consultation appointment. Our team serves patients from Bellefonte, Centre Hall, Altoona, and surrounding areas with great general, cosmetic, and restorative care.
Enhancing Smiles with Cosmetic Dentistry in State College, PA
August 16, 2011
“Smile! Show us your happy face!” This is easier said than done for patients who are ashamed of their teeth. There’s no denying the power of a beautiful smile. A somewhat unremarkable face can transform into something magnificent when lit up by a great smile. On the other hand, teeth that are chipped, discolored, and/or crooked can destroy a person’s self-confidence and create a smile that actually detracts from his or her true beauty. (more…)
