Beautiful smile, beautiful teeth - white and sparkly, can say so much about a person. Healthy, successful, even happier is how people are perceived who have a beautiful, natural smile reconstruction. Dr. Kourosh Maddahi, top Los Angeles cosmetic dentist, has warm and welcoming offices in Beverly Hills.
Cosmetic dentistry can be a quick solution for people who are in the need of an upgrade to their look. Whether for personal or professional purposes, porcelain veneers can take only a few days to completely improve that presentation. Even a quick tooth whitening, which takes about an hour, can make a complete change in a person’s smile.
Used to improve the appearance of teeth or to protect and restore a damaged tooth surface, porcelain veneers are the superlative solution to imperfect or unsightly smiles. The word veneer is French in origin, and in cosmetic dentistry it describes the application of a thin layer of restorative material to the teeth. They have the benefit of correcting flawed teeth, for example making them thicker and straighter, with or without the use of orthodontics.
There are several reasons that porcelain veneers are the veneer of choice. One of porcelain veneers’ advantage is that they are far less likely to stain. Additionally, they are the most durable material when bonded to tooth structure, and will not fracture like some composite veneers do, under strain.
With porcelain veneers it is possible to improve the alignment of teeth, without braces. Additionally, the form of a tooth can be modified as well as the color. But most notably porcelain veneers are the cosmetic dentist’s veneer of choice because they have a very life-like appearance due to their luster and translucency, factors that are not achievable with composites.
Patients of Dr. Maddahi have found him to create very beautiful and natural smiles. One described her experience as this, “It’s more than I expected and better than I hoped for. I thought my teeth would be big and not normal and Hollywood-style instead of perfectly shaped for my face. The color and shape is perfect for me.”
She continues, “Let me explain. This is the second time I have had veneers. The first was not the product I hoped for, so I came to see Dr. Maddahi. When he anesthetized I felt no pain what so ever – not even a prick. I felt nothing afterwards. Any sensitivity went away in two days like normal every-day-dentistry should be. In the past, when I got crowns at a dental office it took months for the sensitivity to abate. No heavy painkillers this time! The whole experience was non-painful, comfortable, and reassuring – the kindness from everyone here kept my mind off of any pre-conceived consideration I had.”
With Dr. Maddahi, it is not like any dental experience you have had before. Another patient shared her experience, “It’s not like going to the dentist! If given the choice between going to Dr. Maddahi and a hair salon I’d get my teeth done! My advice is ‘Don’t go to plastic surgery. Get your teeth done. You’ll look 10 years younger.’ Even the temporaries looked better and felt better than the permanents my former dentist put on! I followed directions and didn’t eat anything hard and had not one bit of trouble with them. Even if you have to borrow money – do it!”
Contemporary standards in professional and personal settings have come to expect a person to have a beautiful and natural looking bright, white smile. If you need to fix crooked or unsightly teeth, contact the office of Dr. Kourosh Maddahi, Beverly Hills cosmetic dentist.
