Professional tooth whitening has gained in popularity in recent years, as patients discover the remarkable effects of the procedure. The treatment takes just a little more than an hour to perform, and patients leave with a noticeably whiter smile. Beverly Hills cosmetic dental patients find that just a slight increase in brightness makes a vast improvement to a person's overall aesthetic. Teeth whitening can help you reverse the effects of age, neglect, coffee, tea, dark pop, and smoking.
Computer Imaging
To help you and the dentist map out a cosmetic dental plan and agree on a goal, virtual concepts of your dental work can be generated through computer imaging. Of course, it's important to remember that a computer will not produce the exact final result that you truly will achieve, but it can provide a guideline, as well as a tool for planning communication between patient and doctor.
Laser Gum Line Enhancements
Many people complain of smiles that look less than attractive because of an overgrowth of their gum tissue. This can make the teeth seem smaller and the gums quite prominent. An overgrowth of gum tissue might be genetic, it could result from certain health conditions, or even from the use of certain medications for high blood pressure.
To correct this problem, Dr. Rosenblatt uses a laser to vaporize excess tissue. Only the healthy gum tissue remains, so a more natural, attractive smile results. The precision of the laser allows unparalleled accuracy, and the entire treatment usually lasts just several minutes. Most Beverly Hills cosmetic dental patients who undergo this laser gumline procedure report little to no discomfort.
Non-Metal Porcelain Crowns
There are some tooth restoration procedures that utilize a metal and porcelain combination. However, these do not let light pass through as do real teeth, so the final result is not a natural one. Also, the metal can peek through at the gumline and create an unsightly grayish line.
Dr. Rosenblatt performs smile restoration with veneers that are purely porcelain. Because porcelain is translucent, but very sturdy once bonded to natural teeth, they create a very natural appearance.
