Bonding is among the easiest and least expensive of cosmetic dental procedures.

The composite resin used in bonding can be shaped and polished to match the surrounding teeth.

Most often, bonding is used for cosmetic purposes:
- To improve the appearance of a discolored or chipped tooth
- To close slight spaces between teeth
- To make teeth look longer
- Or to change the shape or color of teeth

At our Fair Oaks dental office we utilize the Sinsational Smile whitening process. It is a revolutionary teeth whitening treatment that combines a clear tray with an LED light to activate the whitening gel at a much faster rate. This enables you to receive a brighter and whiter smile in less time.

Results from Sinsational Smile process can last up to a year, but depends on your food and drink, as well as other factors (i.e. tobacco, medications, age). The use of our whitening pen between visits can be used anywhere and takes only a couple of minutes to help you keep your teeth looking their whitest.

The Sinsational Smile process takes as little as 20 minutes and can give you a brighter smile than other traditional whitening processes.

Dr. Nhan, a popular cosmetic dentist in Fair Oaks, offers a variety of cosmetic procedure to enhance your smile. Tooth whitening is the #1 requested and performed cosmetic dental procedure. Tooth whitening is a procedure that lightens teeth and helps to remove stains and discoloration.

A thin coating forms on your teeth throughout the day, which attracts stains. The tooth's enamel contains pores that hold stains. Cavities need to be treated before teeth are whitened because the whitening solution can penetrate decay and reach inner areas of the tooth, which can cause sensitivity. Receding gums can cause roots to become exposed. Whitening will not work on exposed tooth roots, because roots do not have an enamel layer. Whitening also does not work on tooth restorations such as crowns or veneers.

Whitening can be done in the dental office or at home.

Lumineers porcelain veneers offer the painless way to a permanently whiter and perfectly aligned smile. Lumineers are applied contact lens-thin "smile shapers" to teeth without any grinding or shaving of your natural teeth.

Lumineers transform teeth into a naturally beautiful appearing smile that looks perfect for every individual. Lumineers can even be placed over existing crown or bridgework without having to replace them.

BENEFITS:
- No shots
- No grinding away tooth structure

Composite fillings are today's modern filling choice. They are made to match your tooth's natural color to make them virtually invisible to notice and are placed onto the tooth by bonding the filling material to the tooth so they do not have the unlikely chance of falling off. Many patients choose to replace their old silver and gold fillings with composite fillings.

Other Benefits:
- Beautiful in appearance
- Completed in a single visit
- No filling leaks
- Less chance of tooth cracking
