How Do People Perceive You When You Have Good Looking Teeth?

Beverly Hills cosmetic dentist, Dr. Kourosh Maddahi, finds that the perception people have of you is actually affected by discolored teeth, poorly shaped teeth, or unattractive gums and is immediately changed when you have a smile makeover.

"I had one patient come in with her gums bleeding, teeth cracked, missing and broken. In four weeks I did a full mouth reconstruction on her. She was so elated. She sat there crying, saying you've changed my life, you've saved my life. There's nothing that would replace that kind of acknowledgment from a patient. That's what I love to do." Beverly Hills cosmetic dentist, Dr. Kourosh Maddahi, is dedicated to creating beautiful, natural smiles.

A very marked improvement can be made from a simple teeth whitening procedure. Discolorations can be caused by staining, aging, or chemical damage to teeth. Tooth dullness or staining is an indication that whitening should be considered. Smokers and those who drink coffee and/or tea on a regular basis accelerate the discoloration and require cleaning more often. These are among the most common reasons for teeth whitening.

Dr. Maddahi combines artistry and dentistry, creating beautiful, natural smiles for his patients. "When I look at a patient, I am not just looking at their teeth. I am looking at their whole face, how to make that smile to match their personality and the symmetry of their face." Further he says. "I imagine you have seen people with dental work that is unnatural. Perhaps the teeth are too thick or too long, and push out the lips or the teeth are small or the wrong shape or color. I concentrate on creating just the right smile for my patients."

There are numerous choices for a patient who would like a smile makeover. Some simply need teeth whitening. Others might want a few new teeth to match the rest of their mouth. The choices are many, including porcelain veneers, porcelain crowns, teeth whitening, cosmetic implants, bridges, recontouring, composite bonding, porcelain inlays, porcelain onlays and dentures.

Dr. Maddahi is one of Los Angeles' leading cosmetic dentists. He is very interested in what his patients want, what they suggest and are most comfortable with. Using his state-of-the-art digital cosmetic imaging equipment, he and the patient consult to find the best new smile for them. The display will show a computerized split image of the patient's smile. The top half of the screen displays the current smile and the bottom display is a digital simulation of the smile as it will be after the work has been completed. This way they can make an immediate decision on the work to be done.
