How long will my Dental Makeover take?
Because dental makeovers are designed to create your personal best smile, treatment times will vary greatly between guests. Depending on the combination of treatments you and your dentist decide upon, your dental makeover can take one appointment, or several weeks.
Which cosmetic dentistry procedures will give me a great smile?
Choose from a variety of dental makeover procedures including veneers, metal-free fillings, tooth whitening, instant orthodontics, dental implants, crowns and bridges to achieve a brilliant smile. Dr. Rice or Dr. Hayashi will create an individual treatment recommendation plan based on your dental makeover goals.
Why is professional tooth whitening better than over-the-counter products?
The professional in-office and at-home tooth whitening treatments offered at Aesthetic Dental Designs offer guests the opportunity to whiten teeth according to specific desires, with a highly concentrated tooth whitening process that creates dramatic results. Our tooth whitening products are not available over-the-counter and are supervised for optimal results. Over-the-counter products will not produce the level of tooth whitening or length of results that our treatment provides.
How can I keep my dental work healthy and functional?
We encourage dental makeover guests to treat their dental work as they do their natural teeth. Brush and floss twice a day and visit us twice a year for professional cleanings and evaluation. Avoid any food or candy that might damage natural or altered teeth. Make an appointment with your dental makeover dentist if you have any concerns or feel that your dental work may be damaged or loose.
Are your dental restorations guaranteed?
We use the strongest material possible to give you the function and appearance of natural teeth. However, we cannot guarantee the dental restorations to last a lifetime because of the numerous other factors that play a part in the longevity of teeth. For instance, eating habits, smoking, decay and injury can all have negative effects on your restorations. If you are having problems with your newly placed restoration, we will be happy to adjust or modify it to get a comfortable fit.
How do I know if I need TMJ treatment?
Guests diagnosed with TMJ problems report many irritating signs, such as jaw soreness, clicking or popping sensations, recurrent headaches, and facial pain. Dr. Rice and Dr. Hayashi will use a series of state-of-the-art muscle and joint analysis equipment to determine where misalignment is occurring. Once the problem is identified, TMJ treatment can be applied to correct the misalignment and attain jaw harmony. Read more about TMJ
What if I have dental anxiety?
Dental makeover guests who tend to get nervous during dental visits will find that at Aesthetic Dental Designs, we do everything we can to make guests feel relaxed and comfortable. Our office is a family atmosphere with friendly doctors and staff who understand your concerns and believe that dental visits should be enjoyable. Modern developments and treatment improvements mean that dental makeover and tooth whitening procedures are quicker and easier than ever before. Let us know about your concerns, and we can suggest a variety of positive techniques to make your visit a little easier.
How important are preventative care and home care?
Preventative care involves visiting your dentist twice a year to make sure your teeth and gums are healthy and happy, and visiting us whenever you have concerns or problems. Great home care can do wonders to keep your mouth healthy and help you avoid fillings and periodontal disease. If you are considering a cosmetic dental makeover, improving your smile can make preventative care and home care more effective.
Why are semi-annual check-ups so important?
Your visit to see us every 6 months has many purposes. The professional cleanings and tooth whitening procedures we provide offer deep cleaning and tartar removal that may be missed with home care. Our full X-rays will help your dental makeover dentist identify and treat any signs of decay, before they cause severe damage. Your dentist will check teeth for any physical signs of damage, and make recommendations for cosmetic improvement. Improving the shape, size, and alignment of teeth can have a positive effect on your oral health and create a harmonious and comfortable bite. Your dentist will also check your mouth for signs of oral cancer or other disease.
