Achieving a beautiful smile is a cosmetic change that can vastly improve your appearance in as little as one appointment, with virtually no recovery time. Porcelain veneers offer a fast and effective solution to attaining a dazzling smile. Because they are made of a translucent material that is custom-fabricated and colored by the cosmetic dentist, porcelain dental veneers look like they are your natural teeth. Patients interested in redesigning their smile with porcelain veneers can whiten, change the shape of teeth, or correct cosmetic concerns. Dr. Arellano is highly skilled at creating gorgeous smiles with dental veneers. Contact our San Francisco practice today to learn more about porcelain veneers.

Many patients assume imperfect teeth can only be straightened and symmetrically aligned with braces. Porcelain veneers can correct a range of flaws, including twisted, rotated, chipped, gapped, yellowed, and crooked teeth, as well as overbites and underbites. To find out if you would be a good candidate for dental veneers at our San Francisco Bay Area practice, contact us today. Porcelain veneers can help you achieve the smile of your dreams.

Porcelain crowns are used at our San Francisco practice to restore and strengthen damaged teeth. The treatment begins with a dentist cleaning out and removing infected areas of the tooth. Porcelain crowns are then fitted and placed over the tooth, improving the structure, function, and appearance of teeth.

Unlike noticeable metal crowns of the past, porcelain crowns are made of a translucent material that is layered to achieve a color and shape that blends in with surrounding teeth. Dr. Arellano’s aesthetic skill assists him in creating beautiful smiles with porcelain crowns. To find out if you would be a good candidate for porcelain crowns at our San Francisco office, contact us today.

Inlays/Onlays

Inlays and onlays are used to restore teeth that have been damaged by bacteria. The treatment begins with the dentist thoroughly removing decay from affected teeth. A custom restoration is then created to strengthen and reinforce the structure of the tooth for long lasting results. Because they are colored and fit to complement surrounding teeth, inlays and onlays are an excellent cosmetic and restorative treatment option for infected teeth.

Tooth bonding has many cosmetic uses in dentistry that improve the aesthetics of patients’ teeth. A range of flaws can be corrected with the treatment, including chipped fillings, stains, and small, uneven teeth. Tooth bonding involves use of a tooth colored composite resin that is applied to teeth. The material is bonded onto the tooth, allowing the dentist to sculpt the tooth to the desired shape, hiding imperfections such as cracks and stains. To find out if you would be a good candidate for tooth bonding at our San Francisco practice, contact us today.

A safe, simple, and fast cosmetic dentistry treatment, tooth bonding can vastly improve the appearance of your smile. The procedure can typically be completed in just one appointment, helping patients achieve a subtle change or complete smile makeover. Tooth bonding is an extremely effective treatment, attracting patients throughout the San Francisco Bay Area. Contact our cosmetic dentistry practice today to learn more.

Invisalign®

Teeth that are straight and even can go a long way toward improving the aesthetics of your smile. However, many patients refrain from seeking treatment because they do not want to wear awkward metal braces for an extended period of time. Advances in cosmetic dentistry provide patients with new options to obtain teeth that are symmetrical and balanced. With Invisalign®, available at our San Francisco practice, patients wear clear aligners that gradually shift the teeth into the desired position.

Using 3-D computer imaging technology, Dr Arellano will create a set of aligners specially fabricated to correct your unique flaws. Each aligner is worn for a set duration of time, eventually producing straight teeth. Because the aligners are invisible, removable, and comfortable, Invisalign® is a popular choice for patients seeking a cosmetic change. Many patients are excellent candidates for the Invisalign® system. Contact our San Francisco cosmetic dentistry practice to schedule a consultation with Dr. Arellano about the treatment options available for patients interested in perfecting their smile.

For a subtle change or extreme smile makeover, cosmetic dentistry treatments such as porcelain crowns, porcelain dental veneers, tooth bonding, and Invisalign® offer our San Francisco patients several options. Contact our cosmetic dentistry practice to learn more about the procedures available at the practice of Leo Arellano, D.D.S.
