Enhancing Your Smile

  • Teeth Whitening

    Brighten and remove stains from teeth with one of the most popular cosmetic dentistry procedures. At the Dental Center of Atherton, we offer Zoom! Teeth whitening and at-home options for your convenience, helping you achieve your brightest smile.

  • Veneers

    We leverage decades of artistic creation with cutting edge technology to custom-make veneers that are bonded to teeth to improve their color, shape, or size. They cover stains that professional teeth whitening can't and offer superior longevity and durability with natural-looking results.

  • Dental Bonding

    Repair chipped, cracked, misshapen, or discolored teeth with tooth-colored composite resin. Often completed comfortably without anesthesia, the resin is bonded to the tooth surface to fill in spaces, chips, or uneven surfaces to provide highly aesthetic, long-lasting results.

  • Tooth Reshaping and Contouring

    To correct minor imperfections such as slightly overlapping or irregularly shaped teeth, this dental procedure removes small amounts of tooth enamel to achieve the optimal outcome.

  • Orthodontic Clear Aligners

    Straighten and correct bite issues with SureSmile® orthodontic clear aligners. Customized treatment plans provide optimal, long-lasting, aesthetic, and functional results, suitable for patients with crowding, spaces, or unbalanced bites.

  • Composite Resin Fillings

    Composite fillings match the color of your natural teeth, making them nearly invisible, unlike silver amalgam fillings. They are mercury-free, durable, and unlike metal fillings, doesn't conduct hear or cold as much, for less temperature sensitivity.

Cosmetic Dentistry Benefits

Besides the aesthetic improvement to enhance the overall appearance of the smile, there are many functional benefits to many cosmetic procedures, such as crowns and dental implants, also improving the function and health of the teeth, as well as preventative benefits to protect teeth and gums from further damage and decay for your overall oral health.

Restorative and Implant Procedures (Cosmetic Focus)

  • Dental Crowns

    Designed to cover or “cap” a damaged or decayed tooth, crowns restore its shape, size, strength, and appearance. A dental crown provides the strength and durability to protect the tooth from further breakdown or possible tooth loss. Our state-of-the-art CEREC® technology allows us to produce crowns in a single visit for most cases, eliminating the need for messy impressions and temporary crowns.

  • All-Ceramic Onlays

    Ideal for replacing large fillings without needing full coverage crowns, ceramic onlays partially cover one or more cusps, preserving more tooth structure while offering more protection and durability than traditional composite resin fillings. Completed in a single visit with our CEREC® technology.

  • Dental Implants

    The standard of care for replacing missing teeth, dental implants are titanium posts placed in the jawbone that support dental prosthetics like crowns and bridges, replacing missing teeth and improving your smile and bite while allowing you to eat more comfortably.

  • All-on-4 or All-on-X Implant Solutions

    Replace a full arch of missing teeth with a fixed zirconia bridge supported by 4-6 strategically placed implants. These advanced fixed implant solutions are the fastest, most aesthetic, comfortable, and often most economical option for full mouth restoration.

  • Full Mouth Reconstruction / Rehabilitation

    A multidisciplinary approach using our advanced imaging and scanning systems to restore the entire mouth, involving coordinated care from multiple specialists. Ideal for patients with several failing or old restorations, missing, or severely worn teeth for optimal, long-lasting results.

  • Gum Reshaping and Contouring

    Improve the symmetry and aesthetics of your gum line by repositioning or sculpting gum tissue. This procedure may be recommended before crown lengthening, pocket reduction or another regenerative procedure and long term may lessen the occurrence of tooth decay and periodontal issues.
