Shaq, record setting wide receiver Terrell Owens, and PGA pro Scott McCarron have recently given ringing endorsements of the Pure Power Mouthguard. Shaq says “Who doesn’t want to see their real game or their true potential. PPM works immediately”. Terrell Owens says “The science behind the PPM is simply amazing. This is the best product that I have used that produced results immediately. If you don’t have the PPM, you can’t get your game on.” Professional golfer Scott McCarron is a believer saying “plain and simple, the PPM is the most important piece of equipment in my golf bag! I will never play with out it again.” The science behind the PPM is rooted in Neuromuscular Dentistry techniques that are used to treat a wide variety of TMJ symptoms. These symptoms include headaches, jaw and facial pain, and stuffy ears. Some very simple in office tests can be done to demonstrate how much your range of motion and flexability can be improved with the PPM. Call the Orange Center for Cosmetic Dentistry, one of the few offices in Orange County where you can have a PPM made or evaluate your tmj symptoms with Neuromuscular Dentistry, 714 385-1672.

Orange County Porcelain Veneer Smile Makeovers
Before
After
Having a smile makeover can be one of the most important decisions a person can make. A “one size fits all” approach to a smile makeover can often lead to less than satisfying results. At the Orange Center for Cosmetic Dentistry, I spend a great deal of time designing your new smile before any procedures are performed in your mouth. There are many details to porcelain veneers that many patients are not aware of. I speak with my patients about what they want their new porcelain veneers to look like in terms of size, shape, and color. Most do not realize that the gum tissue can be evened out easily by using our laser and how much that alone can improve a smile. The sizes of the front teeth fall into a proportion that is based on the “Golden Proportion” and most violations of this proportionality lends itself to a mediocre at best outcome of the entire smile. Texture and translucency of the porcelain veneers can be critical as well in determining the outcome. These details and many more have to be considered when designing your new smile makeover with porcelain veneers. That’s where additional training at programs such as LVI is so valuable for dentists performing cosmetic dentstry.

Is Orange County Cosmetic Dentistry right for me?
If you find yourself having regrets about your smile every morning when you put your lipstick on or adjust your necktie in the mirror, then Orange County cosmetic dentistry may be right for you. Orange County Cosmetic Dentistry can be as simple as smoothing a small chip in a tooth or as complex as full mouth reconstruction using the principles of neuromuscular dentistry. In most cases, it involves tooth whitening, bonding, porcelain veneers, or non metal all ceramic crowns.

The benefits of cosmetic dentistry are numerous. An attractive smile is in most cases a healthy smile. More and more studies are showing links between an unhealthy smile and increased incidence of heart conditions and stroke. An attractive smile is an attribute in the workplace, especially in both inside and outside sales. It is said that when someone is on the phone you can tell if they are smiling on the other end. Of course first impressions are extremely important both socially and in the workplace. How often do we form an opinion of someone based on a first impression? It goes without saying how important a smile is when meeting people for the first time. If you think your smile could use some improvement, then it probably does, and Orange County cosmetic dentistry may have the answer for you.

I get this question all of the time at my practice. I smile to myself when I think of all the numerous reasons. LVI (Las Vegas Institute) trained dentists are some of the most qualified, skilled doctors that I have had the pleasure of being around. A dentist who has attained Fellowship status at LVI has completed a rigorous post graduate lecture, laboratory, and live patient program of over 250 hours at the LVI campus. These core programs at LVI have as their focus tremendous patient service, cosmetic dentistry, and complex restorative Neuromuscular Dentistry that includes treatment modalities for TMJ dysfunction. What this means to our patients is that Orange County LVI dentists are committed to excellence in all areas of our patients treatment.
I have been fortunate to be a visiting clinical instructor at LVI for the past 13 years and have seen how LVI has positively impacted so many dentists and their patients lives in Orange County. I am very fortunate to be associated with LVI and so many LVI doctors throughout the world.
