Cosmetic dentistry services to enhance the smile
Within the past ten years, interest in cosmetic dentistry has risen dramatically. Patients now know that having a beautiful smile doesn’t mean being a part of the Hollywood elite. Modern cosmetic dentistry and dental care services are becoming more attainable for the everyday patient, allowing individuals of all ages to enjoy affordable dental treatments focused on improving the smile’s appearance. Dr. Brian Gradinger and his team in Valencia, California, are here to offer not only general and family dentistry but affordable cosmetic dentistry as well.
What are some of the more typical cosmetic dental treatments available?
Dr. Brian Gradinger and his team in Valencia are excited to offer everything from single teeth contouring treatments like veneers to a complete smile makeover. Below are just a few of the more common aesthetic treatments offered at the practice:
Composite fillings
areas of decay can leave behind large crevices in the natural tooth structure that can leave a tooth susceptible to infection and breakage. The decay can be stopped by filling these areas with composite resin and the tooth restored for proper function and health.
Bonding
- Patient came in with a chip in one of his lateral incisors (side front) tooth
- We recommended a bonding procedure which uses composite (same as white filling material) to fix the area of concern
- He was happy with his smile as is, so we took the conservative approach and only fixed the missing tooth structure and no neighboring teeth
Porcelain veneers
covering imperfections near the front of the smile often calls for porcelain veneers. These are very thin shells of porcelain bonded onto the front of a tooth to disguise defects like permanent staining or breakage.
6 Veneers
- Patient is a 19 year old female with existing no prep veneers which had begun chipping and getting cavities around the edges
- Patient requested to both stabilize her front teeth and get a NEW SMILE!
- We recommended she replace her existing 4 no prep veneers with new – minimal prep veneers and add her canines for better smile symmetry
- Patient was so happy to have her smile back!
Professional teeth whitening
a whiter smile is often associated with beauty and health. If you are unhappy with over-the-counter whitening products that fail to offer results or cause significant sensitivity, it may be time to ask about professional-grade teeth bleaching services available with Dr. Brian Gradinger and his team. These options provide better results in a shorter time, making them a worthwhile investment.
Routine Cleaning and Bleaching
- Patient came in with stained teeth and irritated gum tissue
- We recommended a simple cleaning along with some custom bleach trays
- We took the conservative approach and only did what was needed to brighten her smile since her natural tooth shape and size did not need adjustment or modification
