Crowns
Dental crowns are more visually attractive because they are made out of tooth-colored
materials – either ceramic or composite resin. These materials are perfect for
onlays (partials crowns) as well as full crowns and porcelain veneers. When
used for partial crowns instead of amalgam (metal combined with mercury), you can
avoid concerns regarding the health risks associated with mercury, and these restorations
feel and look like part of the natural tooth structure. Moreover, crown restorations
chemically bond to teeth and thus can expand and contract with changes in temperature,
which prevents cracking and breakage from occurring. Click here to schedule
consultation.
Porcelain Veneers
Porcelain veneers are designed to correct the appearance of chipped, cracked,
crooked, or stained teeth. The shape, length, and width of the teeth can be altered
with
porcelain veneers to better complement the facial features and restore balance
and symmetry to your smile. With veneers, your teeth can appear whiter, straighter
and beautifully shaped.
Porcelain veneers are thin shells of porcelain that when bonded to the front
surfaces of teeth become very strong. Custom-made for each individual patient, the
color of each veneer is closely matched to the patient's teeth. With a semi-translucent,
enamel-like quality, porcelain veneers allow light to be absorbed and
reflected off the dentin beneath, resulting in bright, luminescent teeth that look
completely natural.
A smile speaks volumes about a person and a cosmetic makeover with porcelain veneers can be accomplished
in just two visits.
Lumineers
Finally, a painless way to reshape and permanently whiten your smile.
Lumineers which do not require painful removal of tooth structure, are a
perfect solution for permanently stained, chipped, discolored, or misaligned teeth.
They can even be used to revitalize old crown and bridgework. Lumineers, by Cerinate, is a porcelain
veneer that can be made as thin as a contact lens, and is bonded over existing teeth.
Lumineers can only be made from patented Cerinate porcelain. The porcelain
used to create them is extremely strong, allowing them to be much thinner than traditional
veneers. Since this porcelain is thinner, it closely resembles natural teeth and
doesn't require removal of sensitive tooth structure. If tooth reduction is needed,
often only minimal amounts of enamel are removed and the sensitive part of the tooth
is not touched. This eliminates the need for a shot during the procedure and the
possibility of sensitivity afterwards. This revolutionary porcelain is crafted through
a proprietary process unavailable anyway other than from Cerinate Smile Design Studios,
owned by DenMat Corporation. In just two or three visits to the dentist, Lumineers provide a custom made smile clinically
proven to last up to 20 years.
Invisalign
Invisalign® is an alternative to traditional metal braces. It’s the virtually
invisible way to straighten your teeth without braces, so it has become an extremely
popular orthodontic treatment choice among adults and teens. Wilshire Dental Care, Los
Angeles dentists are certified in Invisalign® treatment and can help
you achieve perfectly aligned teeth with this innovative technique.
When you undergo Invisalign® treatment, you wear clear plastic aligners
(similar to mouthguards) that are custom designed using digital computer technology.
Each aligner is worn for two weeks and then replaced by a new one until the desired
alignment is achieved. You wear your Invisalign® aligner during the day and
throughout the night, only removing it to eat, brush, and floss. While some patients
feel minor discomfort at the beginning of each two-week period, this discomfort
is comparable to the discomfort that wearers of braces experience and indicates
that the aligners are working.
Invisalign® works gradually over a period of several months to two years
to shift teeth into proper alignment. Patients may wear anywhere from 18 to 30 aligners
during the course of treatment, depending on their needs. In addition to correcting
poorly aligned teeth, Invisalign® can also be used to treat
crowded teeth, widely spaced teeth, and overbites. Click here to schedule
a consultation.
Tooth Colored Fillings
At
Wilshire Dental Care, Los Angeles, we can repair decayed, damaged and worn
teeth as well as replace old fillings using a natural-looking composite resin closely
matched to the color of your teeth.
Our tooth-colored fillings avoid the health risks
associated with the mercury that is contained in and sometimes released from metal
fillings. For patients who are concerned about these amalgam fillings, tooth-colored fillings provide
an excellent solution.
For larger restorations of back teeth – where pressure from chewing is the greatest
– our color-matched restorations are made of strong ceramics. They are stronger
than metal fillings and more compatible, adhering tightly to teeth, preventing further
damage and decay.
These tooth-colored fillings support the remaining
tooth structure, help to prevent breaks and cracks, and insulate the tooth from
temperature changes that can cause pain in sensitive nerve endings. Our color-matched
fillings are excellent for repairing teeth while providing the most aesthetically
pleasing results possible. Click here to schedule
a consultation.
Porcelain Inlays/Onlays
Inlays
After examining the tooth and determining the course of treatment, we will prepare
your tooth for restoration, similarly to traditional treatment methods. Tooth structure
that once would have been cut away can be preserved with this technique. Your prepared
tooth will be coated with a safe, tasteless powder. CEREC then uses a state of the
art digital 3D camera to create an optical impression. This digital image replaces
the physical impression required in traditional procedure. Applying an inlay is
a two visit dental procedure.
Onlays
Onlays are produced from 3D optical images captured with a digital camera From porcelain
blocks, the onlay is crafted to fit the patient’s teeth perfectly. After creation,
the onlay is immediately placed onto the patient’s tooth. You’ll truly appreciate
the convenience, affordability, and beauty of onlays at Wilshire Dental Care, Los
Angeles. Applying an Onlay is a two visit dental procedure
Teeth Whitening
It's simple to have that beautiful, white smile you've always wanted. At Wilshire Dental Care, Los
Angeles, our dentists treat discolored, stained, or aging teeth with custom
designed whitening programs. Take home whitening includes a specially formulated
Crest White Strip, which is stronger than those sold in department stores, or tray
systems by ZOOM or Sapphire.
In office bleaching, which takes about an hour, creates a dramatic change in your
smile through several applications of bleach activated by light.
