Cosmetic dentistry includes an array of dental procedures to enhance the appearance of your teeth, gums, or bite. It focuses on improving dental aesthetics - color, shape, size, alignment, and overall smile appearance. From teeth whitening to dental implants, the field of cosmetic dentistry is vast and offers numerous solutions to achieve your perfect smile.
Porcelain veneers are thin shells of ceramic that bond directly to the front surfaces of the teeth. They are an ideal choice to beautify your smile and have become increasingly popular due to their simplicity and versatility. When bonded to the teeth, the ultra-thin porcelain veneers are virtually undetectable.
Porcelain veneers can fix a myriad of dental issues, including discoloration, stains, worn-down enamel, and even minor alignment issues. They mimic the light-reflecting properties of natural teeth, giving you a natural and radiant smile.
Porcelain bridges are a fantastic solution for missing teeth. A bridge contains an artificial tooth or teeth that are supported on either side by a porcelain crown. These crowns are attached to the surrounding teeth, creating a "bridge" over the gap left by the missing tooth or teeth.
Porcelain bridges not only restore your smile but also help maintain the shape of your face, distribute the forces in your bite correctly, and prevent remaining teeth from drifting out of position.
Gum contouring is a cosmetic procedure that can reshape and even out an uneven gum line. This procedure involves removing excess gum tissue to expose more of the tooth's crown, creating the appearance of longer teeth.
Gum contouring can make a significant difference to your smile. It can enhance your confidence and give you a reason to smile more often. We offer non-invasive laser gum contouring at our cosmetic dental office located in Beverly Hills.
Dental implants are a popular and effective long-term solution for people who suffer from missing teeth, failing teeth, or chronic dental problems. They are artificial tooth roots, similar in shape to screws. When dental implants are placed in your jawbone, they bond with your natural bone and become a sturdy base for supporting one or more artificial teeth, called crowns.
Dental implants not only replace lost teeth but also preserve facial structure, preventing bone loss in the jaw. They also help improve oral health by making it easier to brush and floss, as there are no bridges to clean around or dentures to remove.
Teeth whitening is one of the simplest and most cost-effective improvements you can make to your smile. Over time, teeth can become stained or discolored, especially after smoking, taking certain medications, or consuming foods and beverages such as coffee and tea.
Professional teeth whitening can help eliminate these stains and bring back your naturally white smile. It's a safe, fast, and effective way to brighten your smile and boost your confidence.
Tooth-colored fillings, also known as composite fillings, are dental fillings that match your natural teeth. They're made from a resin composite that's designed to mimic the color and translucency of natural tooth enamel.
Tooth-colored fillings not only look more natural but are also less likely to cause tooth breakage as compared to their amalgam counterparts. They are an excellent choice for those who prefer their fillings to look more natural.
Clear aligners are a popular alternative to traditional braces that are used to move your teeth and align your smile. They are virtually invisible, so most people won't even notice you're wearing them.
Clear aligners are custom-made for your teeth, and each set is worn for one to two weeks before being replaced by the next in the series. Over time, your teeth gradually move into their final, desired positions.
