Ken - From Los Angeles: Cosmetic Dentistry, Porcelain Veneers and Porcelain Crowns

Cosmetic Dentistry & Dental Health

This patient had crooked teeth on the lower and worn down and chipped upper teeth. He is a great looking Los Angeles man, professional in every way but he needed cosmetic dentistry to give him the polished healthy look. Cosmetic dentistry is also healthy dentistry in many ways. Just because it is referred to as cosmetic dentistry, a patient may think that it is only cosmetic in nature. In this patient’s case, the cosmetic benefit was not the main benefi. His dental health, his bite reconstruction and his gum infection were treated successfully which is the main benefit to Face Lift Dentistry ®.

Dental Health When a patient is considering cosmetic dentistry generally they have old crowns and old fillings that need to be replaced. The beauty of treating all of the teeth at one time is that the color and tooth size can be enhanced much better than "one tooth at a time" dentistry. Additionally, when all of the upper teeth are treated together the bite can be corrected while all of the tooth decay and gum infection is simultaneously treated for the health benefits.

Bite Reconstruction - Los Angeles

The patient that has crooked teeth and worn teeth also has a bite that is less than optimal. Cosmetic dentistry combined with bite reconstruction dentistry can achieve a three-dimensional level of health. The jaw is three dimensionally repositioned during the reconstruction of the bite while at the same time the length; angles and shapes of the teeth are idealized for the patient. This is what is now called, Face Lift Dentistry ®. It is the absolute best possible teeth developed in accordance with your skin tones, eye color, facial length, lips and jaw size. It is the best possible bite and jaw position for the health of the TMJ (a neuromuscular approach) and maximum health to the gums.

His treatment was completed by the founder of Face Lift Dentistry ®, Sam Muslin DDS, a Master of the Academy of General Dentistry, of Santa Monica California.

Porcelain Crowns and Cosmetic Dentistry

Lower jaws that have worn down teeth are jaws that are not in their best position. Lower jaws that are not in the best position have bad bites and TMJ disfunction. Three-dimensional dentistry repositions the jaw in the most comfortable position without surgery.

Patients experience better health and lower jaw and TMJ comfort because there is less jaw strain with the newly reconstructed bite. Porcelain crowns done in harmony with the TMJ can guide the jaw into its new position. This patient was treated with the best possible dental care and even though cosmetic dentistry was part of the treatment, most of his treatment had significant health benefits.

Ken looks good in the before picture but looks healthy and cleaner in the after picture. He feels great about himself, is significantly healthier and has a more comfortable bite. He has Face Lift Dentistry ® which is the highest level of dental care possible.
