Cosmetic Dentistry – Porcelain Veneers, Dental Bonding, and More in the Beverly Hills and Hollywood Area
Your smile is often the first thing people notice about you, and Dr. Toni Henderson can help make yours the smile that lights up the room. Offering an array of cosmetic dentistry procedures, including porcelain veneers and dental bonding here at our Beverly Hills and Hollywood-area practice, Dr. Henderson is pleased to give you state-of-the-art care.
Opalescence Take-Home Whitening Trays
For bleaching done at home, at your convenience, Dr. Henderson will make a custom made bleaching tray that fits on your teeth. She will instruct you on how to place the gel in the trays and how to wear them. You may wear them during the day or sleep with them overnight. The trays work great alone but can also serve as a follow up to in-office bleaching. Having the trays at home will allow touch-ups when ever you feel the need to whiten your teeth again.
Porcelain Veneers
Over time, teeth can become chipped, stained, and misaligned in ways that can affect the look of your smile as well as your oral health. Porcelain veneers, available at our Beverly Hills practice, are thin layers of durable porcelain that are customized to fit directly over the tooth. Porcelain veneers require less removal of the tooth's surface than a full porcelain crown, and are tinted to match the color of your teeth.
Dr. Toni Henderson will create an impression of your teeth to tailor the veneer specifically to the damaged tooth. Within seven to ten days, your porcelain veneers will be ready to place at our office in Beverly Hills. The veneers will be bonded to the teeth and exposed to a special light which hardens the veneer to the surface of the original tooth, resulting in a strong, healthy-looking, and aesthetically pleasing tooth.
Porcelain veneers are extremely durable and can last for decades if taken proper care of, but they aren't completely impervious to damage. Patients should avoid using teeth fitted with porcelain veneers to bite down on hard or sharp foods, and should take care of them as they would the rest of their teeth. Porcelain veneers for our Beverly Hills and Hollywood region patients are a wonderful way to mask damaged or stained teeth, and bring a new sparkle to your smile.

Dental Bonding
Chips, gaps, and cracks in teeth can be quickly fixed with dental bonding. Hollywood and Beverly Hills-area patients can also have their teeth re-shaped or re-aligned with this effective treatment.
Dr. Toni Henderson will add a special liquid to provide a base for the tooth bonding resin. This liquid will allow the resin (composite) to adhere to the tooth. Then, Dr. Henderson will apply the resin, mold it to the correct shape, and harden it to the tooth using a high-intensity light. The resin is color-matched to blend with the rest of your teeth. With a quick polish of the tooth, the process is complete. Dental bonding can be achieved in about an hour at our Hollywood and Beverly Hills-area office. Better yet, dental bonding is painless and local anesthesia is generally not necessary. Bottom line: no shots!
The results of dental bonding can last for many years, and the procedure is a quick fix for a host of dental problems.
Contact our general, cosmetic, and restorative dentistry office to schedule an appointment for dental bonding in the Hollywood, Beverly Hills, and Santa Monica region.
Many of the procedures outlined above can be used in combination with other treatments to give you a full smile makeover. Dr. Toni Henderson can replace missing teeth with dental implants or dentures, close gaps with dental bridges, straighten your teeth with Invisalign® clear teeth aligners, and more. A complete smile makeover can be a fantastic way to take care of a host of dental problems, making you look great!
