Patient Testimonial

Cosmetic Dentistry

At the Brea Dentistry office of Dr. Thomas Bae, we make every effort to understand what you as a patient would like to acheive before we begin any cosmetic dental treatment. The same holds true in our philosophy and approach in offering Invisalign to our patients throughout Orange County. Talking about cosmetic dentistry is not as important as seeing for yourself what we can do to create the smile that you’ve always wanted.  We offer the following cosmetic options:

Dental Whitening

Dental whitening is an incredibly popular procedure because of its convenience and the dramatic aesthetic improvements experienced by our patients.

• A safe light-activated clinical peroxide gel solution is used to safely whiten your teeth.
• The in-office procedure takes about an hour to achieve your desired shade.
• At-home whitening kits take as little as three minutes a day for only two weeks.
• Whitening is one of the least invasive, safest, cheapest, and most effective cosmetic options we offer.

Porcelain Veneers

Porcelain veneers are a great way to address misshapen, chipped, broken, misaligned and otherwise damaged teeth in a generally healthy mouth.

• The existing tooth is slightly reshaped and resized to accommodate the veneer.
• We create a color-matched and custom-shaped veneer that is slipped over the tooth and bonded permanently in place.
• The procedure is painless and non-invasive.
• Veneers are extremely durable, making them an excellent choice for the long-term health and beauty of your smile.

Lumineers

Lumineers by Cerinate are porcelain veneers that offer the painless way to a permanently whiter and perfectly aligned smile.

• We can apply these contact lens-thin “smile shapers” to teeth without grinding or shaving.
• Lumineers can even be placed over existing crown or bridgework without having to replace them.
• Lumineers treatment can only be done by a specially-trained, certified dentist.

Dental Bonding

Dental bonding is a great way to address minor chips, decay, and coloration problems in the teeth.

• A thin layer of sculptable material is applied to the tooth with extreme ease and no pain.
• The bonded material is safely cured in place by exposure to a special light.
• This procedure is a good option for patients whose case does not require the use of full veneers, but who could use some minor cosmetic repairs.

Porcelain and Ceramic Fillings

Traditional metal fillings are conspicuous and associated with a variety of potential health risks.

• We use porcelain in our fillings because it offers the safest and most natural looking results.
• Porcelain fillings for cavities are virtually indistinguishable from the original tooth structure, and they are extremely durable.
• We can even swap out existing metal fillings for more advanced porcelain replacements.
