3 Reasons to Choose Cosmetic Dentistry Procedures

Cosmetic dentistry transforms your confidence and enhances your overall well-being. Cosmetic dental treatments can deliver stunning results if you want to brighten your smile, fix imperfections, or achieve a more balanced look. Here are three key benefits of choosing cosmetic dentistry in Long Beach, CA.

Boost Your Self-Confidence

A beautiful smile can work wonders for your self-esteem. Cosmetic dentistry services, such as teeth whitening, veneers, or bonding, enhance your appearance and boost your confidence.

Improve Your Oral Health

Cosmetic dentistry can also promote better oral health. Procedures like straightening teeth or repairing damage can make cleaning easier and reduce the risk of cavities and gum disease.

Rejuvenate Your Appearance

A radiant smile can make you look younger and more vibrant. Cosmetic dentistry helps eliminate stains, chips, and other imperfections, giving you a refreshed and youthful appearance.

Frequently Asked Questions

A dental crown is a custom-made cap that covers a damaged, weakened, or cosmetically imperfect tooth, restoring strength, function, and appearance. Crowns are typically made from porcelain, ceramic, metal, zirconia, or a combination. They offer durability and a natural look by fully encasing the visible portion of the tooth above the gumline and providing protection against further damage.

Crowns improve oral health and function and enhance the appearance of your smile. With proper care, a well-placed crown can last 10-15 years—or longer!

When Is a Dental Crown Necessary?

If you have a damaged or weakened tooth, your dentist may recommend a crown to restore your bite, comfort, and confidence in your smile. Here are a few more specific instances in which a dental crown may be called for:

  • A severely decayed tooth that a regular filling can’t repair
  • A cracked, broken, or worn-down tooth requiring reinforcement
  • A post-root canal tooth that’ requires extra support
  • A dental implant that requires a functional replacement tooth
  • Aesthetic concerns like discoloration or misshapen teeth

Precisely Placing Dental Crowns in Long Beach, CA

If you're looking for a Long Beach dentist with extensive experience in precisely placing dental crowns, guidance, and preventive care to maximize their lifespans, contact Dr. Brock Lorenz and the Golden Coast Dental Care team to schedule a consultation!

Of course! Many of our patients love the idea of combining cosmetic treatments to create a total smile makeover. We can craft a treatment plan for you if you want to:

  • Replace missing teeth
  • Brighten your smile
  • Refine the shape and alignment of your teeth

For example, if you're getting dental implants in Long Beach, you might want to whiten your natural teeth first so your new implant crown blends in seamlessly. If you're thinking about veneers, they can help create a more symmetrical, polished look while covering up chips, gaps, or discoloration. And if you're straightening your teeth with clear aligners, you can finish things off with dental bonding or contouring to perfect the final shape.

Some treatments are best done in stages to get the best results. For instance, teeth whitening is usually done before veneers to ensure a perfect color match and dental implants need time to heal before we can place the final crown. When you visit Golden Coast Dental Care, we’ll chat about your goals, check out your oral health, and map out the best way to get you the smile you’ve been dreaming of.

This is one of the most common concerns patients have about cosmetic dentistry, and the good news is that properly planned cosmetic treatments should enhance rather than compromise your bite and speech function.

Function Meets Beauty

At Golden Coast Dental Care, our cosmetic dentists combine creativity with advanced techniques to create a blend of beauty and functionality. Every cosmetic treatment is carefully planned to improve your smile's appearance while maintaining or enhancing proper bite alignment and speech clarity.

Treatment-Specific Considerations

Different cosmetic procedures affect function in various ways. For example, Invisalign clear aligners correct many bite and alignment issues, including overbite, underbite, crossbite, and gaps between teeth, improving both function and appearance. Dental veneers and crowns are custom-designed to maintain proper bite relationships while concealing imperfections.

Comprehensive Planning Process

During your cosmetic dentistry consultation, one of our expert dentists performs a thorough dental examination of your teeth, gums, and jaws and takes detailed images. This comprehensive evaluation ensures that any cosmetic work will support proper function. Your personalized treatment plan considers how each procedure will affect your overall oral health and bite function.

Cosmetic Dentistry Procedures

Do you need help with a single issue like a cracked tooth? Or do you feel your smile could do with a total makeover? Whatever you want for your smile, we offer cosmetic treatment to help you attain your goals.

Teeth Whitening

Looking for an easy and affordable way to transform your smile? Professional teeth whitening can brighten your smile by several shades and give you a fresh, more youthful-looking appearance. We offer both in-office whitening and custom take-home kits so you can choose the best option.

Dental Veneers

Veneers are a popular cosmetic dental treatment that helps improve your smile's appearance using thin, custom-fit porcelain or composite resin shells. We bond the veneers to the front surfaces of your teeth to conceal broken or cracked teeth, gaps, discoloration, and slight tooth misalignment.

Invisalign Clear Braces

Composite Bonding

Dental bonding is a fast and affordable cosmetic dental treatment that corrects minor smile flaws. We apply tooth-colored composite resin to tooth surfaces and carefully shape the material to correct chips, cracks, gaps, and other aesthetic flaws.

Porcelain Dental Crowns

Dental crowns cover the entire visible portion of a tooth, making them a perfect choice to conceal cosmetic imperfections. Using crowns, we can hide a discolored tooth or improve a tooth's shape and appearance.

Dental Implants

A dental implant is a small titanium post placed in your jawbone and acts as a replacement tooth root. After the implant fuses with the bone, it becomes a secure foundation for replacement teeth. We can replace a single tooth or multiple teeth with implants using crowns, bridges, or even full dentures.

Your Cosmetic Dentistry Consultation

A cosmetic dentistry consultation aims to provide the information you need to make a confident treatment decision. This appointment includes the following steps:

  • Perform a dental examination — Your dentist will examine your teeth, gums, and jaws and take x-rays and intraoral photos.
  • Discuss your cosmetic goals — We want to understand your smile goals to create a personalized treatment plan to address them. This is your opportunity to tell us about your dreams and desires for your smile.
  • Your treatment plan — Your cosmetic dentist will develop your personalized treatment plan that may include one or more procedures. If you have underlying issues like gum disease or cavities, your dentist will talk to you about addressing those first. 
  • Review the costs and timeline — Our dental team will provide estimated costs and review financing if appropriate. They will establish a timeline for completing treatment and schedule appointments based on your unique needs.

Digital Impressions

Digital impressions use a handheld intraoral scanner to capture detailed images of your teeth and soft tissues. The result is a 3-D virtual model we use for numerous dental treatments, including orthodontics, crowns, bridges, and veneers.

Using digital impressions replaces the paste material that many people find messy and uncomfortable. This technology not only improves your comfort but also provides highly predictable and accurate results.
