A smile is one of the few things that plays a role in first impressions, daily interactions, and personal confidence. Such deserves to be taken care of by a team that knows it best. That is why Clove Dental focuses on enhancing the appearance of teeth while maintaining comfort and long-term oral health.

For over 30 years, our dental team has provided cosmetic dental care to patients in Santa Monica. At Clove Dental, we offer cosmetic dentistry options that can address concerns while keeping the natural characteristics of each smile.

Understanding Cosmetic Dentistry

Cosmetic dentistry includes treatments that make teeth, gums, and smiles look better. While general dentistry focuses on preventing and treating dental problems, cosmetic dentistry addresses concerns about the color, shape, alignment, and size of your teeth.

An example of this is straightening teeth, making day-to-day care simpler. Restorations like crowns can safeguard weakening teeth, and correcting uneven wear can help enhance bite balance. Cosmetic dentistry is often chosen by patients who want their smile to look healthier and more balanced while still feeling comfortable and natural.

A Thoughtful Approach to Cosmetic Dentistry

Treatment should start with proper planning and cosmetic treatment. At Clove Dental, each patient’s care starts with a consultation focused on understanding concerns, evaluating oral health, and discussing realistic outcomes.

We take time to examine tooth structure, alignment, bite, and facial proportions before recommending any cosmetic procedure. This allows us to suggest treatments that are appropriate for both appearance and long-term dental health. Our approach avoids unnecessary procedures and emphasizes results that are subtle, balanced, and durable.

The patients are encouraged to ask questions and take time when deciding on cosmetic treatment.

Cosmetic Dental Services at Clove Dental

Our Santa Monica office provides a range of cosmetic dental services to address both minor concerns and more comprehensive smile goals. Professional whitening of the teeth can be offered to patients with a desire to eliminate staining or discoloration. To enhance the appearance of teeth, surface anomalies, or gaps, porcelain veneers can be suggested.

Invisalign has become a discreet way of correcting minor to moderate misaligned teeth. The dental crowns are applied whenever the tooth needs structural support as well as cosmetic enhancement like when the tooth is damaged or deteriorated. In other instances, a combination of several treatments can be considered as a part of a properly planned smile makeover.

Your dentist will discuss with you what kind of treatment is suitable in your case and what you should expect with any course.

What to Expect During a Cosmetic Consultation?

A cosmetic dentistry consultation at Clove Dental is designed to be straightforward and informative. The dentist will listen to you and check your teeth and bite as well as review your oral health during your appointment. Treatment options are then discussed according to clinical observations and your preferences.

You will have time to review recommendations, ask questions, and consider whether treatment aligns with your goals. The consultation is aimed at achieving clarity so that you can make an informed decision.
