Cosmetic Dentistry in Fountain Valley - How it Works

Signature Cosmetic Dentist Services in Fountain Valley

We offer a full range of cosmetic procedures designed to improve the appearance of your teeth and your confidence. Every treatment is customized to your needs and delivered with precision and care.

Porcelain Veneers & Lumineers

Porcelain veneers are highly durable covers that are applied to the outer surfaces of the teeth to provide protection and aesthetic benefits. They are typically used to cover up discoloration, correct small misalignments, and to cover gaps between natural teeth.

Lumineers are a specific type of porcelain veneer that tend to be thinner, easier to apply, and require less enamel removal during the fitting procedure. Veneers are typically 0.5 mm and more durable, while Lumineers tend to be 0.3 mm thick and are minimally invasive.

Professional Teeth Whitening

Teeth whitening is an aesthetic treatment that uses a peroxide-based solution to bleach the teeth with the aim of removing discoloration or shade variation. A professional teeth whitening treatment performed in-house at our clinic will involve a higher concentration solution than any at-home treatment kit available online. Our experts tailor the concentration and application time to achieve the desired degree of whiteness while preserving both tooth and gum health.

Invisalign® & Clear Aligners

Invisalign® is a type of clear aligner designed to gently correct tooth misalignment in a way that is far less noticeable than traditional metal braces. The idea is to apply gentle, targeted pressure to misaligned teeth so that you can close small gaps and achieve a more uniform smile. All clear aligners can be easily removed to maintain good oral hygiene and can play a key role in achieving lasting cosmetic improvements to your smile.

Bonding & Tooth-Colored Fillings

Bonding is a cosmetic procedure that uses composite resin that matches the color of your teeth and then shapes the resin to close gaps, cover areas of discoloration, and repair minor chips. The goal is to improve the overall uniformity of the teeth to create an aesthetically pleasing smile that improves self-confidence. Tooth-colored fillings perform a similar role, typically at the back of the mouth on the molars, while also providing functional protection to damaged or exposed nerve endings.

Gum Contouring / Laser Smile Lift

Gum contouring is a laser-based cosmetic procedure that reshapes the gums in relation to the teeth by removing excess soft tissue that negatively impacts your smile. Precision ablation of the excess tissue can restore balance with minimal post-treatment swelling and discomfort. Our experts carefully assess your smile before the treatment to determine exactly how much tissue should be reduced so that complications never arise.

Full Smile Makeover

A full smile makeover is a comprehensive series of aesthetic treatments that include veneers, gum reshaping, and teeth whitening to improve body confidence. Our expert team will fully tailor your smile makeover to address all issues and leave you with a smile that is free from gaps, small misalignments, chips, and discoloration.

What Is Cosmetic Dentistry?

Cosmetic dentistry is a series of treatments and procedures such as teeth whitening, bonding, and veneers that are designed to deliver enhanced aesthetic benefits. It is an aesthetic approach to dentistry that addresses common issues like stains, chips, and gaps. Some cosmetic procedures may have secondary functional benefits—veneers provide protection for underlying enamel, for example—but the primary goal is always to improve how your smile looks.

We can help you find the right combination of treatments so that you can achieve the flawless smile you have always wanted. Book today and take the next step toward boosting your body confidence the smart way.

The Smile Makeover Process

Our cosmetic dental care services follow a comprehensive smile makeover process that is designed to address your individual needs in a truly personal way. The goal is to provide much more of an aesthetic focus than the largely functional Restorative Dentistry services we also offer. If you need some degree of overlap between these two different types of dentistry, we can always adapt our smile makeover process to include anything and everything you need.

Consultation & Photo Session

An initial consultation ensures we understand your aims and what you want to achieve, while an in-depth photo session allows us to properly assess your smile. We will provide advice and guidance on the most suitable treatments while giving you time and space to ask anything you would like to know. The aim is always to put you at ease by helping you understand your cosmetic dentistry options.

Digital Preview & Treatment Planning

A digital preview is an interactive step that shows you what your new-look smile can be before you embark on any treatments or procedures. We do it to make sure that you are 100% happy with our suggestions and to show you what our treatment pathway can achieve. There is also the option to adjust the specific combination of treatments and see a new digital preview accordingly.

Precision Treatment

Precise, minimally invasive treatments preserve tooth enamel and virtually eliminate post-procedure swelling. Whitening agent concentrations are tailored to avoid gum irritation, composite resins are carefully shaped to protect surrounding soft tissue, and the long-term health of tooth enamel remains a key focus at all times.

Follow-Up

Following up with you is essential because, in our experience, it ensures that any minor issues or imperfections can be quickly rectified with a small adjustment. We also offer ongoing support and help with maintaining your new perfect smile to greatly extend the lifetime of veneers, Lumineers, and bonded teeth.

Our experience allows anyone in Fountain Valley to fall back in love with their smile without having to compromise. Book your free consultation today and take back control of the way you look and feel.
