Smile

Dental problems like decay and tooth loss can make it difficult to eat, speak, and smile. Unlike a smile makeover, a full mouth reconstruction restores function to your smile. Full mouth reconstruction is a customized treatment plan designed by Dr. Catharine Song to improve your oral health, including your teeth, gums, and bite. In many cases, a full mouth reconstruction involves replacing or rebuilding all of the teeth in the mouth. Patients in Beverly Hills and Los Angeles with many broken or missing teeth usually qualify for this plan. A good candidate for full mouth reconstruction should also be in good general health to consider this set of restorative dental procedures.

Dental Crowns
Dental crowns have two functions. They’re little porcelain or metal caps that go over a tooth’s visible area. To safeguard a tooth that has had root canal therapy, Dr. Song may propose dental crowns. Dental crowns can also conceal unevenly shaped or sized teeth, as well as interior discoloration that is resistant to whitening.

Veneers
Enamel shells that cover the fronts of your teeth are known as Veneers. Discoloration, gaps, crowded teeth, and odd forms or sizes can all be concealed with these natural-looking teeth covers. Dr. Song can color and shape your veneers to create a natural-looking smile for you.

Teeth Whitening

In the United States, teeth whitening is one of the most popular cosmetic dentistry operations. Professional teeth whitening treatments are available from Dr. Song to remove stains and restore a dazzling white smile. She offers both in-office and at-home teeth whitening services.

INVISALIGN®
Invisalign is a fantastic choice to explore if you have overbites, underbites, gaps, overcrowding, or twisted teeth. Instead of brackets and wires, Invisalign uses clear dental aligner trays to straighten and perfect your smile. Because Invisalign is removable, you can eat and floss while wearing it. You can eat whatever you want and brush and floss as usual as a result.

Onlays

To enhance your smile, replace old metal amalgam fillings with dental onlays. Porcelain fillings are tooth-colored and prevent microorganisms from penetrating cavities. Initial fillings can also be done with dental onlays.

Restorative Treatments

Before beginning with your complete mouth restoration, Dr. Song may need to perform root canal therapy or treat swollen gums. She will uncover any concerns that require quick action after a comprehensive oral and dental examination.

Every aspect of your full mouth restoration is customized to give you a beautiful, healthy and functional smile.
