Cosmetic Tooth Replacement

Restore the smile you deserve to have, even after having a tooth removed

Dental Implants

Implants are like real teeth, from crown to root. They are made of 3 components: the implant itself, an abutment, and a crown. The implant is a metal post we’ll painlessly insert into your jaw to act as your artificial root. The abutment sits on top of the implant to hold the tooth restoration in place. And the crown fully repairs the look and function of your tooth.

Dental Bridge

Bridges can replace one or more teeth with a single appliance. A bridge is made of 2 dental crowns on both ends, which sandwich the artificial tooth between them. It is placed by filing down the teeth on either side of your gap and placing and cementing the crowns on top. This allows your teeth replacements to sit neatly over the space left by your missing teeth.

Dentures

Dentures are the most flexible tooth replacement option, able to restore anything from a few teeth to a full mouth of missing teeth. Using a gum-pink base to keep the prosthetic together, any number of false teeth can be attached to repair your smile. Whether a partial or complete denture, each tooth is custom crafted to give you a beautiful smile.

The Wonders of Invisalign

The invisible way to straighten your smile

When it comes to straightening crooked and crowded smiles, our patients can’t help but gush about our Tustin office’s Invisalign treatment. Invisalign’s inviting and unobtrusive clear aligners mean you don’t have to worry about the obvious look of traditional braces giving away your orthodontic treatment. For many adults, clear aligners are a game-changer, allowing them to feel confident in their smiles without their friends or family knowing they’re on the way to perfecting their teeth. Besides being near invisible, one of Invisalign's biggest advantages is that they’re completely removable, needing to be worn only 22 hours a day. Eat anything you want without the fear of breaking or bending any wires and brackets.

And there are no special instructions when taking care of your teeth, making keeping your mouth healthy and happy a breeze. Invisalign is fast and extremely effective, often giving patients a beautiful smile they love months earlier than they would with standard braces. You can have your treatment finished in as little as 6 months, and the entire process will be smooth and painless! It's no mystery as to why so many people—children, teens, and adults alike—have been flocking to Invisalign to straighten their teeth. If you're interested in getting your teeth straightened, there's no reason to wait any longer! To learn more about Invisalign or to schedule a consultation with our orthodontic team at Gold Coast Dental Tustin, give us a call today at (714) 795-3865.

What does cosmetic dentistry include?

Cosmetic dentistry is a broad type of dentistry meant to address a wide range of aesthetic problems. Some common procedures our dentists perform at Gold Coast Dental Tustin include: gum contouring to aid in crown lengthening or a receding gum line; professional teeth whitening to remove years of stains and yellowing; orthodontic treatment to straighten crooked and crowded teeth; and dental bonding and veneers to tackle anything from chips and cracks to uneven spacing and shaping. We also apply our cosmetic eye in our tooth restorations, including dental fillings, porcelain crowns, and dental implants.
Which is better: bonding or veneers?

Dental bonding and veneers both treat the same problems: discoloration, tooth size and shape, cosmetic chips and cracks, gaps between teeth, and light teeth alignment problems. However, veneers go the extra mile and can cover more severe issues. And with porcelain, your veneers can last more than 20 years with great care, compared to composite bonding's 4 to 8.
How do veneers work?

Dental veneers are thin shells of porcelain that cover the front surface of your teeth and enhance your smile. By specially designing each of your veneers to your smile, your cosmetic dentist can change their shape, size, color, and length of your teeth to exactly how you've wanted them to look. To ensure your transition to veneers is seamless, we will need to shave a small layer of the hard outer enamel of your tooth before cementing your porcelain veneers to your teeth. This both prevents any bulkiness and removes any bacteria and decay making a mark on your smile's health. For patients nervous about the veneers process, we offer a range of thinner veneers, like Lumineers, which don't require preparing your teeth beforehand.
Should amalgam fillings be replaced?

In recent years, amalgam fillings' mercury content has made it a health concern for many patients. Most dentists, including our own at Gold Coast Dental Tustin, now highly recommend that you only receive composite fillings and replace any amalgam ones with composite. Composite also has the added benefit of being a more aesthetic option as our cosmetic dentists match the color of your filling to the exact shade of your teeth. This allows you a totally natural-looking and healthier smile.
How do celebrities get their teeth so white?

Many celebrities choose to whiten their teeth with a professional teeth whitening, which can lift up a decade of stains in a 30 or 60 minute visit and lighten your smile by up to 8 shades. However, quite a few celebrities use veneers as well, especially if they want to do a little more than just brighten their teeth. Tom Cruise, Morgan Freeman, Ben Affleck, and Catherine Zeta-Jones are just a few celebrities who prefer this method of whitening their pearly whites.
What are the advantages of dental implants?

Dental implants are often considered one of the best ways to replace missing and extracted teeth. Implants act as a full tooth, with the implant surgically grafted into your mouth to promote bone growth. Unlike bridges, you don't have to shave down your neighboring teeth to fix your dental prosthetic. They're also permanently fixed, with no chance of sliding or slipping like with dentures. They're also much longer-lasting than both bridges and dentures, often remaining healthy and intact for more than 25 years.
