Frequently Asked Questions About Cosmetic Dentistry in Corona, CA

Question: How does teeth whitening work?

Answer: There are actually two distinct types of teeth whitening. The first is an in-office procedure known as Zoom! Whitening. We apply a bleaching gel and use a special light to remove discoloration in as little as 45 minutes. The other option is an at-home procedure that involves wearing trays filled with gel for a certain amount of time each day. In about a week or two, patients can have teeth brightened nu several shades.

Question: What is dental bonding?

Answer: If you have teeth that become chipped, or are misshapen, or have gaps between them, then you may benefit from bonding. We apply a composite resin to the teeth to build up structure or reshape the tooth. The material is cured with a special light, the entire procedure completed in just one visit.

Question: Do you offer white restorations?

Answer: Yes. With white fillings, crowns, and veneers can repair teeth that have become cracked, chipped, or broken. Restorations also address teeth that have cosmetic issues or suffer from infection or advanced tooth decay. We offer ours made from porcelain, a lifelike and durable material that is stain-resistant and able to withstand powerful bite forces.

Question: What are the benefits of porcelain veneers?

Answer: Veneers are shells of porcelain we place on the front of the teeth. They instantly transform the tooth, addressing discoloration, misshapen teeth, gaps, and correcting the appearance of minor misalignment. They look natural and can last for decades.
