A guide to cosmetic dentistry options, cost, and benefits in Turlock

“Value” refers to the benefits that you get from an investment. As it relates to cosmetic dentistry, patients of Dr. Ramsin K. Davoud may invest in:

• Tooth-colored fillings
• Porcelain crowns
• In-office whitening
• Home whitening
• Porcelain veneers
• Laser correction of a gummy smile
• Invisalign orthodontic treatment

Here, we discuss the cost and benefits of cosmetic dentistry treatments at our Turlock, CA office.

Professional whitening

We offer both chairside whitening at our office and whitening from the comfort of home. Over-the-counter products claim to whiten teeth; they rarely make a noticeable difference in stains and discoloration. Professional whitening treatments are worth the money because they are clinically proven to break up stains. Treatments are applied or overseen by a dentist. So, treatment is customized to your needs, specifications, and goals. In turn, whitening your teeth at the dentist’s office gets predictable results, and is a safe, low-risk way to dramatically transform the appearance of your smile. Whiter teeth are associated with youthful vibrancy and health. This type of procedure is one of the most affordable ways to improve your overall facial appearance.

Restorations

We replace damaged tooth structure with dental materials that are designed to look, feel, and function like natural and healthy teeth material. Restorations such as crowns may be used to rebuild a tooth that is decayed or broken, or for cosmetic purposes (such as to reshape an irregularly shaped tooth). Veneers are placed to alter the appearance of a tooth, for instance, to disguise chips, small fractures, gaps, and stubborn discoloration. The cost of these treatments varies considerably, depending on factors such as the number of teeth to be treated, as well as the extent of the damage to your teeth. Our restorations are made from durable and strong materials. So, you can enjoy this investment in your smile for years to come.

Additional treatments

Crowded and crooked teeth not only detract from the appearance of your smile. They also challenge your ability to clean between teeth well. Poor oral hygiene puts you at increased risk of developing gum disease and tooth decay. These conditions may require costly restorations and tooth replacement to restore oral health. Orthodontic options such as Invisalign® prevent the need for extensive repairs to restore health and function. The Invisalign® system also predictably straightens teeth without braces. We emphasize techniques and technologies that support comfort, natural healing, a pleasant experience, and an efficient recovery. Lasers are a great fit with this approach and may be used to recontour soft tissues and to correct a “gummy” smile.
