What Is Cosmetic Dentistry?

Cosmetic dentistry comprises a range of treatments that focus on enhancing the appearance of your smile, resulting in a refreshed and revitalized look. Many of these procedures not only enhance aesthetics but also serve as restorative dentistry services. Dr. Lavi has successfully transformed countless patients’ smiles, restoring their self-confidence, and can do the same for you.

Benefits of Cosmetic Dentistry

There are several reasons to get a cosmetic dental treatment, including:

  • Enhanced Smile: Cosmetic dentistry can significantly enhance your smile, addressing imperfections like stained, discolored, or yellowed teeth. 
  • Boosted Confidence: When you feel proud of your smile, you’re more likely to engage in social interactions, attend important events, and express yourself with confidence.
  • Improved Oral Health: Many cosmetic dentistry procedures also contribute to improved oral health.
  • Restored Functionality: Certain cosmetic dental procedures not only improve the appearance of your smile but also restore functionality. 
  • Natural-Looking Results: Advancements in cosmetic dentistry techniques and materials have made it possible to achieve natural-looking results. 
  • Long-Lasting Effects: Many cosmetic dentistry treatments offer long-lasting results, providing a beautiful smile for years. 

Our Cosmetic Dentistry Treatments

Teeth Whitening: Brighten Your Smile

We provide professional teeth whitening treatments that effectively eliminate years’ worth of deep stains embedded in your teeth’s enamel. If your teeth are discolored or yellowed, this simple and affordable procedure can provide the solution you’ve been searching for.

Dental Bonding: Quick and Cost-Effective

Dental bonding is a highly cost-effective cosmetic procedure designed to repair cracked or chipped teeth. With composite resin, Dr. Lavi can enhance the health and beauty of your smile. Skillfully placed resin blends seamlessly with your natural teeth, making it virtually impossible to detect any previous dental work. Furthermore, dental bonding can address functional issues caused by chipped teeth.

Dental Veneers: Conceal Imperfections

Porcelain veneers, also known as dental veneers, are an ideal solution for those with minor cosmetic imperfections that affect their confidence in social situations. These thin shells of porcelain effectively conceal cracks, stains, or misshapen teeth, providing a complete smile transformation.

By affixing dental veneers to the front surfaces of your teeth, Dr. Lavi can create a flawless appearance that withstands daily activities such as eating and speaking. 

Dental Crowns: Restore and Enhance

Dental crowns, sometimes referred to as dental caps, serve restorative and cosmetic purposes. They are used to restore and protect damaged, cracked, or decayed teeth, as well as enhance the overall aesthetic appearance of your smile. By placing a crown over the affected tooth, Dr. Lavi can preserve its natural structure and safeguard it against harmful bacteria.

Our Los Angeles cosmetic dentist ensures that your dental crowns match the shape, size, and color of your natural teeth, providing a seamless and natural-looking result.

Dental Bridges: A Solution for Missing Teeth

If you have adjacent missing teeth, dental bridges offer an effective solution. These restorations, consisting of pontics (prosthetic teeth), bridge the gap left by missing teeth, restoring your smile and preventing the shifting of surrounding teeth.

Dental bridges are securely held in place by dental crowns, which act as anchors on either side of the bridge. This treatment not only restores the functionality of your smile but enhances its aesthetics, as well. 

Dental Implants: A Long-lasting Solution

Dental implants are an exceptional restorative and cosmetic procedure for replacing missing teeth. Implant posts function as artificial tooth roots, preventing jawbone deterioration that often occurs with tooth loss. 

Dental implants require sufficient jawbone density and healthy gums. Schedule a consultation with Dr. Lavi to determine if you’re an ideal candidate for this transformative treatment.
