What Is Cosmetic Dentistry?

Cosmetic dentistry is a subspecialty of dentistry that improves the aesthetic appearance of your smile. A cosmetic dentist is like an artist, shaping and re-creating teeth to make the perfect smile. Dr. Matthew, DDS, MICOI, received special training to create and shape teeth that look natural to fit each unique face. Cosmetic dentistry is different from general dentistry because general dentistry focuses on dental health and maintenance, whereas cosmetic dentistry seeks to improve the aesthetics and function of the teeth.

Dr. Matthew can repair:

Chipped teeth
Gap teeth
Crooked teeth
Permanently discolored teeth
Stained teeth
Missing teeth

He can also improve the appearance of teeth with the following cosmetic procedures:

Porcelain crowns
Porcelain veneers
Teeth whitening
Invisalign braces
Dental implants
Dental bonding

Advancements have been made in cosmetic dentistry; the materials used are durable, have a similar feel to natural teeth, and can match the natural shade of teeth. Whether you desire to fix a crooked tooth, want whiter teeth, or need a smile makeover, Dr. Matthew can help you achieve the smile you want.

We improve smiles throughout Los Angeles, Marina Del Rey, Santa Monica, Manhattan Beach, Venice, Hermosa Beach and the surrounding areas of Southern California.

You can have the smile you desire. Please contact us today to set up a consultation with a Westchester cosmetic dentist.

Will my dental insurance cover the costs of cosmetic dental work?

It depends on the procedure. There are many people who require cosmetic dental work that is necessary for function and overall dental health, in which case it could be covered by insurance. If you have questions, please feel free to call us at (310) 670-0659.

What causes tooth discoloration?

The foods, beverages, smoking, and medication we consume can dull the teeth. In addition, the enamel on our teeth degrades as we age, which can contribute to the yellowing of the teeth.

Does teeth whitening hurt?

We do everything we can to ensure our patients don't experience discomfort during teeth whitening. Some may experience tooth sensitivity after a teeth-whitening session. This typically doesn't last long and should go away within a day.

I am missing a tooth. What is the best option for tooth replacement?

Those who are missing teeth and would like them replaced are good candidates for dental implants. Please visit the dental implants page for more information.

A smile makeover is when Dr. Matthew, DDS, MICOI, uses various procedures to improve a person's smile. A smile makeover can include some veneers for a gap, teeth whitening, or dental implants. The makeover depends on the individual's unique smile.
