Cosmetic Dentist, Dr Anthony Mobasser

All you wanted to know about PORCELAIN VENEERS aka dental veneers,or LAMINATES, or DENTAL LAMINATES.
What Are Veneers?

Veneers are thin, custom-made FACING OR LAMINATES that cover the fronts of unsightly teeth. They are crafted from tooth-colored, high-tech materials to portray a natural, bright smile.VENEERS can be made of porcelain or composite material.

How Long Will Veneers Last?

Veneers are intended to last for many years , DEPENDING  on patient’s bite,parafunctional habits (clenching or grinding ) ,  and the necessary preventative dental visits needed. Unlike most bonding materials, (which is porous hence prone to stains ) porcelain veneers will not change color over time. You should consult cosmetict dentist to find out  how long veneers will last in your particular mouth.

How Are Veneers Applied?

The tooth is reshaped and contoured  initially to allow for the added thickness of the veneer. THIS IS THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN VENEERS AND LUMINEERS. With Lumineers typically no tooth structure  is removed ,however the added porcelain on the tooth without removing any tooth structure initially, will result in a BULKIER OR THICKER OUTCOME.So for DENTAL VENEER  a molded image is taken of the reshaped tooth and sent to a dental laboratory where the veneer is custom-made to fit your mouth. The veneer is applied with adhesive material which bonds it to the original tooth structure.VENEERS SHOULD NOT BE CEMENTED TO THE TOOTH RATHER BONDED TO THE TOOTH,so it becomes one with the reshaped tooth.

Advantages of Veneers

Tooth-Like Appearance
Since veneers are individually sculpted for each patient, it is nearly impossible to tell the difference between a veneer and a natural tooth,however depending on the skill of the cosmetic dentist and the ceramist ,multicolor porcelain layers can be incorporated to each hand crafted veneer,to transform your smile ,to the awsome smile you desire.

High Stain-Resistant
Custom-made veneers resist stains from coffee, tea and cigarette smoke because they are made of high-tech, extremely polishable glass material, the porcelain material resist stain ,much better than composite material ,in which is more porous.

Benefits of Veneers

• A minimal amount of the natural tooth must be altered to fit the veneer.

• Veneers can be matched to make even the darkest teeth appear to be bright white.

• Minor twists and overlaps, as well as small gaps, can be quickly corrected through the use of  porcelain veneers.

PERFECT SMILE IS PRICELESS

Posted in Before & After Pictures, Beverly Hills Cosmetic Dentist, Cosmetic Dentist, Cosmetic Dentist Beverly Hills, Cosmetic Dentist Los Angeles, Dentist, Los Angeles Cosmetic Dentist, cosmetic dental smile on July 16th, 2010 by admin

perfect smile cost is  nothing, compared to the value it manifests!!

It enriches those who receive, 


without making poorer those who give.
It takes but a moment,
but the memory of it sometimes lasts forever.

None is so rich or mighty that he can get along without it, and none is so poor but that he can be made rich by it.

A smile creates happiness in the home,
fosters good will in business, and is the countersign of friendship.

It brings rest to the weary, cheer to the discouraged, sunshine to the sad,
and is nature’s best antidote for trouble.

Yet it cannot be bought, begged, borrowed, or stolen, for it is something that is of no value to anyone until it is given away.

 

Some people are too tired to give you a smile.
Give them one of yours, as none needs a smile so much as he who has no more to give.

A perfect smile can be hand crafted by cosmetic dentist in los angeles if you desire one!! A perfect smile dentist usually  will go over your smile evaluation wants, and then design your perfect smile! visit our perfect smile pictures ,(before and after cosmetic dentistry pictures)to see if you need to enhance your smile.

Snap On Smile, Pros and Cons

Posted in Aesthetic Dentist, Cosmetic Dentist, Cosmetic Dentist Los Angeles, Cosmetic Dentistry, Dentist, Esthetic Dentist, Los Angeles, Los Angeles Cosmetic Dentist, SNAP ON SMILE, Smile Makeover, TMD, TMJ on June 23rd, 2010 by admin

Snap on smile is a removable appliance that goes over the patients teeth, thus you can change the color and shape of teeth.

Having said that ,lets discuss pros and cons as it relates to cosmetic dentistry,performed by cosmetic dentist.

The PROS are: there is no anesthetic involved,it is reversible (if you do not like it ,you do not wear it),usually no drilling involved,dentist can use it as a diagnostic tool for the bite and possibly tmj (tmd),possibility of cosmetic enhancement when it is INDICATED,it can be a precursor to thin dental veneers, lumineers , or porcelain veneers,it can close spaces to a certain extent,overcoming DENTAL PHOBIA,possibly immediate dratification, it is a quick fix to get white smile ,and it is the fraction of the cost of placing 10 plus veneers.

the CONS can be the following:they are fragile,so they can fracture or break,since it goes over your teeth , they are going to appear BULKIER  than your teeth ,they will not have the same look as your natural teeth or a well made porcelain veneer, it is compromised smile makeover , it is not recommended for severe bruxer or clencher ,possibility of fracture does exist.,and it does not last as long of other cosmetic treatments.,it can interfere with phoentics and SPEECH,since they are longer than your own teeth and they are joined.,it is not indicated for people who like their existing length and width of their teeth ,and do not want them altered.

It is my opinion that the AESTHETIC DENTIST or the esthetic dentist should evaluate the patient ,take necessary records ,ask patient needs and wants ,then discuss all options,pros and cons to patient.

If you are interested further,please call 310-550-0383 for your indepth one to one consultation.,to see if snap on smile is for you.

Mother’s Gum Disease is Linked To Stillborn Death

Posted in Cosmetic Dentist, Cosmetic Dentist Los Angeles, Dentist, Gum Disease, Los Angeles, Los Angeles Cosmetic Dentist, gingivitis, priodontal disease on April 23rd, 2010 by admin

There is a direct link between preterm labor and gum disease (Periodontal Disease) in pregnant woman.A study showed  that oral bacteria associated with a mother’s periodontal disease was connected to the death of fetus.

the pregnant mother had experienced exessive bleeding of the gums (in which 75% ofpregnant woman experience due to hormonal changes) which allowed  a bacteria (fusobacterium nucleatum) to travel from the mouth in to her blood stream and eventually into placenta.Post-mortem the same bacteria was found in the baby’s lungs,and stomach,and the final report stated thatdeath was due to a septic infection and the inflammation caused by that bacteria!!

The testing strongly suggested that the bacteria were delivered through the blood!!!

As  a dentist in los angeles ,i am encouaging women who are pregnant,or wish to become pregnant ,to maintain great oral hygiene,and visit their dentist and report any excessve gum bleeding immediately.

As a cosmetic dentist a word of advice : do your yearly full mouth evaluation ,including periodontal charting,and possibly xrays to avoid unwanted problems,!there has been proven link between  untreated gum disease or periodontal disease ,with systemic conditions ,related to the heart and lungs among others.

Porcelain Veneers (Dental Veneers) vs Crowns

Posted in Aesthetic Dentistry, Best Cosmetic Dentist, Beverly Hills, Beverly Hills Cosmetic Dentist, Cosmetic Dentist, Cosmetic Dentist Beverly Hills, Cosmetic Dentist Los Angeles, Cosmetic Dentistry, Crowns, Los Angeles, Los Angeles Cosmetic Dentist, Porcelain, Porcelain Laminates, Porcelain Veneers, Smile Makeover on April 20th, 2010 by admin

 A word of advice! When it comes to smile makeover,or new cosmeticdentistry  procedure;

It is my opinion to stay conservative as much as possible ,when it comes to tooth removal!!
once your tooth is cut,the  g-d given tooth structure is gone.
Dental crowns usually require 360 degree preperation,i.e all around the tooth,vs veneer or dental veneer require at MOST 180 degree preperation,meaning the in side if your tooth is not even touched,meaning less tooth structure is removed,therefore your teeth are not weakend as much as a crown preperation (porcelain cap).
Due to above facts, if there is any debate to do porcelain veneers vs. porcelain crowns ,it is always best to do veneers, (laminates)!!
You can always go from porcelain veneer to porcelain crown or cap!!,but you can never go from a crown to veneer!!
remember this!!

Celebrity Smile Analysis: Tom Cruise

Posted in Beverly Hills, Beverly Hills Cosmetic Dentist, Cosmetic Dentist, Cosmetic Dentistry, Crowns, Dental Bonding, Full Mouth Reconstruction, Los Angeles, Los Angeles Cosmetic Dentist, Lumineers, Porcelain Veneers, Smile Makeover, TMD, TMJ on August 24th, 2009 by dranthonymobasser

Los Angeles Cosmetic Dentist Dr. Anthony Mobasser has performed thousands of smile makeovers since 1980. In that time, he has worked with a multitude of celebrities from around the globe, helping give them smiles that are the envy of the world. With his trained, artistic eye, he can instantly recognize what makes a smile so dazzling or identify what can be done to turn an average smile into a dazzling work of art.

Below are some of his thoughts on today’s celebrity smiles.

Tom Cruise . He has a wonderful, world-famous smile, but there are some things he could do to improve it. A combination of gum line pink bonding on the upper right canine tooth, and a thin porcelain veneers on the upper right side could give him a fuller smile. My philosophy is to keep your teeth for the rest of your life and use the most conservative minimal procedure possible when it comes to veneers. My suggestion to him is to add (not remove) a combination of bonding and porcelain veneers.

Answers to Commonly Asked Questions

Posted in Beverly Hills, Beverly Hills Cosmetic Dentist, Cosmetic Dentist, Cosmetic Dentistry, Crowns, Dental Bonding, Full Mouth Reconstruction, Los Angeles, Los Angeles Cosmetic Dentist, Lumineers, Porcelain Veneers, Smile Makeover, TMD, TMJ on July 1st, 2009 by dranthonymobasser

Cosmetic dentistry is growing in popularity every day. If you’re looking at having some cosmetic dental treatment done on your smile, no doubt you have many questions. Herewith we provide some answers.

COSMETIC DENTISTRY PROCEDURES
Many options are available these days, including permanent whitening, reshaping and contouring of the smile line, porcelain veneers (dental veneers) and more. Read our “procedures” articles for more details. You also may want to visit our “Services” site.

COSMETIC DENTAL COSTS
As with most customer services, the cost varies depending on the time required and the complexity of the dental cosmetic procedure. Creating your smile makeover may require a combination of the services listed above. The best way to determine price is to consult a Los Angeles cosmetic dentist as Dr. Anthony Mobasser. Keep in mind cosmetic dentistry is an investment in both your personal and professional future.

COSMETIC DENTISTRY BENEFITS
Surveys show 98 percent of Americans believe a person with a beautiful smile is more successful, more intelligent, more attractive, and much more. A great smile also makes patients feel more confident and ensures your teeth are healthy.

TIMELINE TO COMPLETE YOUR COSMETIC DENTISTRY
How many visits will it take to improve your smile? The timeline varies for each person, depending on the amount of work required. Some procedures can be completed in one or two visits. More extensive work may require up to six visits. Due to Dr. Mobasser’s expertise, rest assured that your cosmetic dentistry will be performed with the highest quality possible in the shortest amount of time. Whereas many cosmetic dentists require up to 10 visits to complete cosmetic dentistry procedures, Dr. Mobasser requires only two in most cases. The need for a complete, comprehensive evaluation and consultation is a must prior to starting treatment. Undergoing smile makeover may sound daunting, but the ease with which Los Angeles cosmetic dentist Dr. Anthony Mobasser performs his procedures, you’ll wonder why you didn’t start the treatment sooner. You are going to love your new smile!

APPEARANCE
Dr. Mobasser will collaborate with you to create the look you desire. He can create a smile enhancement that looks both natural and dramatic. Using photographs and models, Dr. Mobasser can show you how you’ll look with your new smile. In some cases, he can place trial materials (dental mockup) directly over your existing teeth so you can view the final results immediately.

LONGEVITY

Your makeover will last for many years if you practice good dental oral hygiene. This includes brushing, flossing, and preventive visits. Please note each patient requires different preventative visits in which Dr. Mobasser will let you know ahead of time due to plaque buildup, your past medical history, your past dental history, enzymes in your saliva, and the genetic factors relating to plaque buildup. Some patients may need checkups every 2-4 months, every 6 months, or every 12 months, depending on the plaque buildup.

COSMETIC DENTISTRY AND YOUR DENTAL INSURANCE
Not all dental insurance plans cover cosmetic dentistry. If they do, they will reimburse only a portion of the treatment. We can check in advance (after a complete analysis of your dental health) if your insurance does cover cosmetic dentistry. Dr. Mobasser can arrange a payment structure to best suit your needs.

TOOTH WHITENING
Please note many people are concerned that teeth whitening will damage their tooth enamel and cause permanent teeth sensitivity. On the contrary, teeth whitening causes no damage to your enamel. However, if you have gum disease, gum recession, or your roots are exposed, teeth whitening is not recommended due to causing severe sensitivity on the rooth of the tooth. In some cases that has been irreversible. That is why Beverly Hills cosmetic dentist Dr. Mobasser says that is pertinent to have a compelte evaluation before starting teeth whitening procedures. Dr. Mobasser does not recommend you use over-the-counter whitening products before you have complete examination and evaluation for root sensitivity and root recessions to avoid further damage.

While you may experience some sensitivity during the whitening process and for a brief time afterwards, the sensitivity should fade within one to two days following the procedure.
