Are you considering a smile makeover in the Los Angeles area? Are you skeptical of promises of a ‘perfect smile’ a ‘celebrity smile’ or ‘a dazzling, youthful smile’? Let’s talk about the most popular Los Angeles cosmetic dental procedures and the results that can be expected. Composite Veneers The application of porcelain veneers at Century City Aesthetic Dentistry can remedy a multitude of aesthetic dental problems and is often a better cosmetic dental solution for candidates in the Los Angeles area than dental bonding. Dental veneers can correct tooth chips, tooth cracks, minor tooth misalignment, tooth discoloration, unattractive tooth shape, and disproportionate tooth size. Can a porcelain veneer create a perfect tooth? While a veneer cannot fix a decayed tooth, it can turn an unsightly tooth into an aesthetically perfect tooth. Tooth Bleaching Los Angeles tooth whitening is a non-invasive cosmetic dental treatment that dramatically improves a smile. However, some Los Angeles tooth whitening dentists will guarantee fantastic results for any patient that desires a whiter smile. At Century City Aesthetic Dentistry in Los Angeles we only recommend tooth bleaching for clients that are good candidates for the process. If you have all-natural teeth that are dull or stained, tooth whitening will brighten your smile. If you have several dental crowns in the front of your mouth, or gums that have receded, conventional tooth-whitening may not improve your smile. Call (877) 331-9291 to schedule a tooth-whitening consultation. Tooth-Colored Fillings If you have a mouth full of metal fillings, you may be interested in tooth-colored fillings. To get an idea of how the inside of your mouth would look without metal, have someone without any fillings open their mouth. Do you remember when your mouth looked like that? Would you like to bring your smile back to its pre-filling appearance? It is possible with tooth colored fillings at Century City Aesthetic Dentistry. These are just a few of the cosmetic dentistry solutions that create perfect smiles for our Los Angeles clients. You can see a complete list of our services at http://www.billdorfmandds.com/.

Is a Perfect Smile Possible In Los Angeles?
Friday, June 10th, 2011Energy Drink Warning For Century City
Thursday, June 2nd, 2011
Hello. I’m Dr. Bill Dorfman.
Welcome to my Century City dental blog. Today’s topic is energy drinks and the damage they can cause to your teeth. I am seeing more and more Century City teens and adults with tooth enamel erosion caused by frequent consumption of sport drinks.
Most of these Century City dentistry patients take good care of their teeth, brush and flush, and come into Century City Aesthetic Dentistry for a twice-yearly exam and deep cleaning. But guess what? If you drink energy drinks regularly, your enamel can erode even if you practice immaculate oral hygiene.
Energy drinks like Red Bull, Rock Star, and Monster are a cocktail of powerful acids and other enamel-eroding substances. Most of them contain citric acid, fruit juices, loads of sugar, and a potent chemical that gives them their bright fluorescent color.
Perhaps, like myself, you have often noticed young people walking out of Century City convenience stores swigging 32-ounce energy drinks. I am concerned that Century City teens do not understand the serious dental consequences of frequent acid baths.
The following is from ABC Sports:
“Sports drinks are increasingly damaging the teeth of professional and recreational athletes, one of Australia’s top sports dentists has warned. Dr. Brett Dorney says he has witnessed a huge increase in dental erosion since the Sidney Olympics, when he was the event’s deputy director of dental services.”
Here is an excerpt from a recent CNN Story:
“Researchers at the University of Iowa’s College of Dentistry found the energy drinks and sports drinks eroded the enamel more than soda and fruit juices.”
I need to add the caveat that soda and fruit juices also contain acids that can damage teeth.
If your teeth have enamel erosion, whatever the cause, we can restore your smile with advanced cosmetic dentistry. Crowns, porcelain veneers, inlays and onlays can correct both structural and cosmetic problems.
Our phone number is (877) 331-9291. If you are interested in re-designing your smile, come in for an exam and consultation. With cutting-edge cosmetic dentistry, we can repair acid-damaged teeth and dramatically increase your face value. We also offer dental implants.

Common Myths about Beverly Hills Cosmetic Dentistry
Friday, March 25th, 2011
Myth #1: Cosmetic Dentistry is Never Necessary for a Healthy Smile
Many so-called Beverly Hills cosmetic dental procedures are not solely cosmetic. Beverly Hills dental procedures such as tooth replacement are smile-enhancing and, more importantly, prevent many potential problems such as tooth movement, bone loss and difficulty chewing and speaking.
Myth #2: A Beverly Hills Dental Bridge is the Only Way to Replace a Missing Tooth
Dental bridges are a Beverly Hills dental cosmetic procedure that have been used for many years with success. However, dental implants are often a better choice for replacing one or more missing teeth. Dental implants have many advantages for California dental patients. They feel like natural teeth, they are stronger, and they are easier to clean than dental bridges. Beverly Hills dental implants can also be used to anchor dentures or partial dentures.
Myth #3: At-Home Kits are as Effective for Beverly Hills Tooth Whitening Than a Professional Dental Solution
At Century City Aesthetic Dentistry, we offer our Beverly Hills dental patients teeth whitening treatments that provide a much greater level of whiteness than at-home kits. At-home kits may remove surface stains, but they do not provide optimum results and can often lead to uneven coloring.
Myth #4: Dental Bonding is the Best Way to Fix a Chipped Tooth.
Dental bonding can restore the shape of a tooth, but may not be the best long-term solution. If you have a damaged tooth, you may be a good candidate for porcelain veneers. Call us at (877) 331-9291 to set up an appointment so we can determine the best solution for you.
Myth #5: Beverly Hills Braces are the Only Way to Straighten Teeth
Braces are often part of a transforming dental makeover for our Beverly Hills teens and adults alike. However, if your teeth are only slightly crooked, lumineers can reshape your teeth and dramatically improve your smile. And the best thing about veneers? They offer instant results!

Save Money With Dental Implants at Century City Aesthetic Dentistry
Thursday, January 13th, 2011
Q: For Beverly Hills residents: When is the least expensive tooth replacement method really the most expensive?
A: When it ends up costing far more in the long run.
Many Beverly Hills cosmetic dentistry clients who lose a tooth do not understand the importance of replacing it with a dental implant. They wrongly believe that one missing tooth is not a significant problem. In fact, some Beverly Hills people who have an abscessed tooth extracted are so glad the pain is gone that they forget that the extraction is not the solution. When a tooth is lost, the risk of losing the adjacent teeth increases dramatically.
Dr. David Scharf, a Board Certified Periodontist and Dental Implant Surgeon and a Clinical Assistant Professor at New York University College of Dentistry says:
“Many times consumers will choose to replace a missing tooth with a removable partial denture because it is the least expensive option. In the long run however, removable partial dentures may be more costly due the loss of adjacent teeth and the need for future replacements. Many people opt to replace teeth with dental implants because they do not compromise the survival of the adjacent teeth.”
Dr. Scharf notes…
“With the price of gasoline and food soaring people try to cut back wherever they can. Unfortunately choosing the least expensive options for tooth replacement can have some very costly ramifications down the road.”
If you are missing a tooth, you may still be able to save the adjacent teeth if receive an implant soon. An implant bonds chemically with the jaw bone and helps maintain its stability.
To schedule a dental implant consultation, call Century City Aesthetic Dentistry at (877) 331-9291. We provide cosmetic dentistry services such as porcelain veneers and teeth whitening for patients in the Beverly Hills, California area.
Veneers Create Stunning Smiles in Beverly Hills
Wednesday, December 15th, 2010
Veneers have myriad applications in Beverly Hills cosmetic dentistry. With veneers, you can transform your smile without significant restorative dental work.
Is your tooth enamel worn and thin? Tooth-colored porcelain veneers have the translucency of healthy tooth enamel. Many Beverly Hills dental clients have received veneers to cover worn enamel. Some believe they look twenty years younger!
Have your teeth developed uneven edges? Tooth grinding, natural wear and other factors can roughen tooth edges. Veneers are a minimally invasive correction for uneven tooth edges. Veneers are a popular treatment for Beverly Hills cosmetic dentistry patients.
Do you have chips or cracks in your teeth? If your teeth are otherwise healthy, dental veneers provide a flawless tooth surface. Are your teeth yellow or gray? Veneers can fix that, too. Veneers can be fabricated in any shade to perk up your smile while still blending naturally with your skin tones.
Porcelain veneers are paper-thin, tooth-shaped covers that are affixed to the front of teeth. Traditional veneers required the removal of a thin layer of tooth structure. Prepless veneers are applied to unaltered teeth.
Veneers are strong, natural looking and one of the most affordable cosmetic dentistry procedures in Beverly Hills, California. Veneers are usually far less expensive than complete dental crowns, yet they are just as strong and beautiful.
Beverly Hills aesthetic dentists love veneers because they correct a multitude of tooth problems. At Century City Aesthetic Dentistry, we would be happy to show you what veneers can do for you. Century City Aesthetic Dentistry is located at 2080 Century Park East, Suite 1601 in Los Angeles. We provide premium dental care for many of your friends and neighbors in the greater Beverly Hills area. Our phone number is (877) 331-9291.

What a Beautiful California Smile Says About You
Thursday, September 30th, 2010
It’s not just about looks. According to a recent study by the American Academy of Cosmetic Dentistry (AACD), a healthy and attractive smile makes you appear more intelligent, successful, friendly and interesting. (See http://www.aacd.com for complete survey results.)
Our smile makeover patients who have undergone restorative and cosmetic dentistry at Century City Aesthetic Dentistry in Los Angeles have experienced this phenomenon firsthand. They have expressed that they not only feel great about their looks, they are more confident in professional and social situations. Another benefit: they also feel more appealing to the opposite gender.

I get great satisfaction in using my years of specialized experience to provide premium cosmetic dentistry for my patients in the Los Angeles, Hollywood, Beverly Hills, and Century City area.

After receiving porcelain veneers, they now have a dazzling smile. Others had been self-conscious about missing or stained teeth. Dental implants can replace missing teeth.

If you are not familiar with the latest teeth whitening, crown restoration and tooth replacement procedures, it is time to find out. Call (877) 331-9291 to schedule a consultation.

Affordable Los Angeles Cosmetic Dentistry
Wednesday, August 25th, 2010
Will your California dental insurance cover Los Angeles cosmetic dental procedures? Many Beverly Hills, Hollywood, and Los Angeles dentistry clients assume their dental insurance won’t cover any cosmetic dental procedures. This is probably true for tooth whitening or some other cosmetic dentistry treatments. However, many California dental insurance plans and dental supplemental plans cover orthodontia and any treatment needed to repair damage from an injury. Medical insurance and worker’s compensation plans may also cover injury treatment.
Some dental insurance plans cover replacement porcelain veneers in certain circumstances. Check with your carrier for benefit specifics if you need replacement veneers due to deterioration. We can then discuss dental treatment options such as replacement veneers or porcelain crowns. When the work is completed, we may be able to help you submit your dental claim form if your plan requires one.
If you are in need of any kind of dental treatment; from a cleaning to major restorative work, come in to Century City Aesthetic Dentistry on 2080 Century Park East, Suite 1601 in Los Angeles. You can meet our professional team, undergo a thorough evaluation and discuss financing options. Even if you do not have California dental insurance, let’s talk. Top quality Los Angeles dental treatment is a wise investment and may be more affordable than you think.

Restoring Smiles at Century City Aesthetic Dentistry in Los Angeles
Tuesday, June 15th, 2010
A great smile is essential for putting your best face forward. At Century City Aesthetic Dentistry, we not only restore teeth to their original condition; we make many Beverly Hills smiles better than they ever were before!
Some patients have only a few problems they wish to correct. Perhaps one or two teeth are misshapen and seem out of alignment. If the problem teeth are only superficially crooked—meaning they do not need to be moved into place with orthodontia—porcelain veneers are the answer. Veneers are wafer-thin porcelain shells that are attached to the front of one of more teeth. They are extremely versatile and can correct shape, color, or both.
Another plus: porcelain veneers are essentially non-invasive and do not affect healthy tooth structure.
Some of our Hollywood and Century City dental patients were happy with their smile in years past but now want to bring up the whiteness a notch or two. Teeth whitening is a popular procedure for our California cosmetic dentistry clients. We provide a variety of teeth whitening options for every type of smile. If you are ready to brighten your smile, come on in; we’ll help you find the best tooth whitening system for your smile.
