As a member of the American Academy of Cosmetic Dentistry, Dr. Janette Larsen has seen firsthand what can happen when an in experienced and untrained cosmetic dentist lays porcelain veneers or whitens teeth. However, it’s not always the dental practices fault as patients can be very persistent.
Not Always the Doctor’s Fault
A patient may have the best intentions, but if he or she has been with the practice for some time, they may feel like they can talk to the dentist about adding products and services.
For example, a general dentist may have several requests for porcelain veneers, but unless he or she is committed to additional training and continued education, it’s best that they refer the patient to a cosmetic dentist.
Dr. Janette Larsen has helped thousands of people just like you smile again with dental restoration and cosmetic repairs and replacements.
A Cosmetic Dentistry Consultation in San Diego
The best way to determine what types of cosmetic dentistry would be best for you and your smile is to schedule an appointment with Dr. Janette Larsen and her team. Your cosmetic dentist in San Diego will examine your teeth and gums, take digital pictures and check your bite for any problems.
During this time, Dr. Larsen will also check your dental restorations including dental implants and bridges. If you have removable oral appliances be sure to take them with you to your dental appointment as just like dentures, mouth guards and sleeping appliances will not fit if your face changes or you gain or lose a considerable amount of weight.
Your New Smile Makeover
Depending on what you are having done, your dentist will map out your dental plan according to time and budget.
For instance, if you are having porcelain veneers and some restoration work on the agenda, the restorative procedures will be addressed before your cosmetic treatments begin.
Your New Smile Could Include:
- Porcelain Veneers
- Tooth Colored Fillings
- Orthodontics
- Inlays
- Onlays
- Dental Bridges
- Professional Teeth Whitening
- Cosmetic Dental Bonding and Enamel Shaping
- Dental Implants
- Old Restoration Removal and Replacement
A Beautiful AND Healthy Smile
One of the most important parts of your smile is the health of your teeth and gums. If you have gingivitis or periodontal disease, your dentist in San Diego will discuss possible treatment plans including root planing and scaling.
If your gums are healthy enough for restorative and cosmetic dentistry, the possibilities are endless. From clear removable braces to same day whitening there is no end to what you can achieve.
