Dentistry can be a lot more than just removing pain or restoring broken teeth, cosmetic dentistry can be an effective tool in helping you achieve a more dramatic youthful look in as short 1 or 2 appointments without the pain or costs of plastic surgery. As we age our teeth lose some of their shape and luster due to wear and tear which can make your teeth appear yellow or shortened. However, depending on your goals,  cosmetic dentistry can offer a variety of treatment options to restore your natural beautiful smile and make you look younger.

1. Teeth Whitening is a simple, safe and inexpensive procedure that in as short as 1.5 hours can dramatically improve your smile. Whiter teeth help give you the appearance of a youthful look and brighten your smile and boost your confidence.
2. Porcelain Veneers, can restore and reshape discolored and worn out teeth in as quick as 2 appointments. Porcelain veneers can mimic tooth’s natural radiance and shine, restoring your smiles brilliance. In addition, Veneers can help lift your lip line and reduce the appearance of wrinkles or fine lines around the mouth without having to endure painful lip injections or implants.  Furthermore, Veneers can help reshape teeth and correct minor crowding or misalignment of teeth, without having to wear braces, for a more straight and beautiful smile.
3. Direct Bonding with Composite, is a safe and minimally invasive procedure that in 1 appointment can mask or correct small chips, fractures and even fill spaces between teeth. This procedure is very safe, quick and affordable, and although not as durable as Veneers, it can serve as a excellent alternative for sprucing up your smile.
4. Clear Braces, such as Invisalign, can help straighten your teeth and align them to your preference. A more symmetric and straight smile can go a long way in achieving a beautiful and harmonious smile line.
5. Gum Contouring or Reshaping is a simple and painless 1 appointment procedure that can help lengthen your teeth by removing excess gummy tissue from around your teeth. At Modern Smiles Dentistry in North Hollywood, Dr. Tajik utilizes a diode laser to provide painless and lasting gum lifts and reduce the appearance of a gummy smile.
