How Our Cosmetic Dentistry Experience Stands Out in San Francisco and Sunnyvale

Soothing Dental in San Francisco and Sunnyvale provides a complete range of cosmetic dental procedures that can transform even the most unideal & undesired smiles into one that is gleaming.

A smile makeover usually starts with whitening and we offer an array of choices for that. As you may already know from experience, over-the-counter whitening strips and toothpastes take a lot of effort for meager any palpable results. By contrast, an hour in our dental chair for a professional whitening can lead to significant change in the shade of your teeth. An advanced proven method is Kor Whitening. We also offer the Zoom system. Furthermore, you can have customized bleaching trays made for you and use them with a professional-grade whitening gel to keep up the bright smile after you leave the office.

There are also cases where the discoloration is so strong that whitening is inadequate or that shape of the natural dentition is undesired and one wants to see dramatic change. Dental veneers, made of biocompatible porcelain and shaded to your liking, whether that is to match that of your natural teeth or significantly whiter, can be bonded to those teeth. Veneers are effective in covering large chips or cracks, teeth that are misshapen or too small or too big, and they can hide gaps between teeth or make crooked ones appear even.

For misaligned teeth that normally would require orthodontic braces to straighten them, Invisalign clear aligner trays offer many advantages, aside from being nearly invisible as the name suggests. The treatment can also be speeded up withVPro5 by PROPEL, a vibrating mouthpiece that helps seat the trays better on the teeth, or Orthopulse, a mouthpiece that stimulates cell turnover via light therapy, and/or Propel, which is an in-office treatment.

Best of all the aligners can be taken out for meals, and teeth can be brushed and flossed as usual before placing the aligners back in. So hygiene during clear aligner therapy is a lot more ideal than with braces.

If there are missing teeth, there are different options for their replacement. Dental Implants can be permanent replacement. Whether the cause of the tooth loss is dur to accident or poor dental hygiene, implants can be definitely considered. Dental implants are made of titanium typically and are allowed to integrate with the jawbone.

After the implant has integrated which takes 2-4 months usually, a dental crown/cap is added on top of the implant to resemble the tooth that we typically see above the gum. Crowns can be made of porcelain or zirconia, and shaded to match the neighboring teeth. These would be similar to crowns that are placed over natural teeth that have been cracked in an accident or ground down during sleep, to hold them together and to stop further damage.

Regardless of the state of your smile, we can help! Call Soothing Dental today to set an appointment for a full exam to find out what your best smile makeover options could be.
