Cosmetic Dentist Laguna Hills

Posted on

Cosmetic dentistry not only changes your smile, but your attitude as well. When you fix your teeth, gums or both, you are giving yourself a boost of confidence.

Your Laguna Hills doctors have the experience to provide you with exceptional dental care that includes both restorative and cosmetic dentistry.

You are in the best hands when you give your dental care to Dr. Ryan Conkle and Dr. Dean Garcia.

Cosmetic Dentistry in Laguna Hills

The first step when it comes to your journey is a consultation. You can schedule an in person cosmetic dentistry checkup or get cosmetic dentistry recommendations with the Virtual Smile Consultation.

Virtual Smile Consultation with a Cosmetic Dentist

In the old days you had to cross your fingers and hope for the best when it came to porcelain veneers or cosmetic dental crowns. Thankfully that is no longer the case.

With a virtual smile consultation you can get recommendations beforehand. This eliminates any preconceived notion when it comes to the look of your smile.

Because both Dr. Dean Garcia and Dr. Ryan Conkle are experienced cosmetic dentists in Laguna Hills they understand the dos and don’ts of cosmetic dentistry.

For example, if your crooked teeth are more suitable for conventional wires and brackets, Invisalign® may not be in your favor. In other words, people who have severe tipped and rotated teeth aren’t usually a good fit for clear removable braces.

Cosmetic Dentist for Your Smile

Of course if you would rather visit your cosmetic dentist in Laguna Hills in person contact Saddleback Dentistry. You’ll quickly learn that you can have a smile that will give you a new attitude and a healthier life.

When you consult with Dr. Ryan Conkle or Dr. Dean Garcia, your teeth and gums and oral cavity are checked for anything that looks out of place or suspicious. This could be anything from sores at the back of your throat to cracked dental restorations.

If anything is detected it will be sent out for biopsy. In addition if your restorations are cracked they are repaired with restorative and cosmetic dentist.

Your Recommendations Might Include:

  • Full Smile Makeover
  • Cosmetic Dental Crowns
  • Dental Veneers
  • Clear Braces
  • Orthodontics
  • Bridges
  • Dental Implants
  • Inlays and/or Onlays
  • Tooth Colored Fillings
  • Bonding and Enamel Shaping

Professional Teeth Whitening

If your gums don’t match the size of your teeth ask your cosmetic dentist in Laguna Hills about gummy smile repair. This amazing procedure puts your smile in prospective giving you that new attitude that you have been hoping for.

Cosmetic Dental Bonding Enamel Shaping

Posted on

Cosmetic dentistry in Laguna Hills will change your life and if you follow the Saddleback Dentistry Blog you’ll remember that there are several solutions for chipped and cracked teeth including cosmetic dental bonding and enamel shaping.

In most cases, enamel shaping goes hand in hand with dental bonding as in the case of shortening and lengthening teeth. However, not all dental bonding cases require enamel shaping.

What is Enamel Shaping?

Also called re-contouring, Dr. Dean Garcia and Dr. Ryan Conkle explain that enamel shaping provides just the right size and shape for your tooth or teeth.

For example, your tooth might be shaped before lengthening or your dentist might want to smooth out the corners of your eye teeth. Sometimes your cosmetic dentist in Laguna Hills will recommend enamel shaping to even out your back teeth as well.

Whatever the reason or reasons, enamel shaping can do wonders for your not so perfect smile. It is also an extremely attractive alternative to porcelain veneers and cosmetic dental crowns.

What is Cosmetic Dental Bonding?

Dr. Ryan Conkle often recommends cosmetic dental bonding for people who want to change the look of their smile, but aren’t quite ready for porcelain veneers. Remember, porcelain veneers and cosmetic dental crowns are permanent.

Dental bonding repairs chips and cracks and is sometimes used for tooth colored fillings, inlays and onlays.

People who want to alter their smile enjoy great results for a long lasting and beautiful smile.

With that being said, dental bonding is not as strong as other types of cosmetic dentistry solutions.

Cosmetic Dental Bonding is Also Used For:

  • Uneven teeth
  • Rough teeth
  • Teeth that are too long or too short
  • Chips
  • Cracks
  • Spaces between teeth
  • Permanently stained teeth
  • Overcrowding
  • Sharp corners on teeth

How Long Does Cosmetic Dental Bonding Last?

Bonding lasts for years as long as you practice good oral hygiene. In addition, you will need to stop chewing on ice and biting your nails.

Because the bonding material is made from dental resin it is not as strong as dental porcelain. Moreover, porcelain is used for veneers and cosmetic crowns and is extremely sturdy.

If you have a habit of chewing on anything you’ll want to think hard about cosmetic dental bonding. Furthermore, tooth staining is another issue with dental bonding.

If you love a glass of red wine, your coffee or tea in the morning or a big bowl of spaghetti bolognaise, your bonds will stain more quickly because resin is more porous than veneers or crowns.
