Cosmetic Dentistry
What Can Cosmetic Dentistry Do for You?
Virtually anyone who is concerned about the appearance of their smile can talk to our Fountain Valley, CA, cosmetic dentist about their options. Cosmetic dentistry can address a number of aesthetic concerns, including:
Dental discoloration may be the result of dark-colored foods and beverages (extrinsic stains). Sometimes, it is caused by genetics or dental trauma (intrinsic stains). Both types of discoloration can be addressed with aesthetic dentistry.
A tooth may sustain superficial damage, such as a small chip, crack, or fracture. These small breaks can worsen over time and have a negative impact on your health and appearance. Our Fountain Valley dentist can conceal these flaws.
Crooked teeth can be unsightly, but did you know a misaligned bite can lead to oral health issues and jaw dysfunction? Our dentist offers orthodontic options that can straighten mildly or severely crooked teeth.
Some individuals have excess gingival tissue. This dental condition is often referred to as a "gummy smile," and it can make the teeth appear small or disproportionate. Cosmetic dentistry can bring balance to your appearance.
Teeth grinding and normal wear and tear can cause enamel to wear away. As a result, the teeth can look small and boxy. Our cosmetic dentist can address dental erosion, protecting your teeth and upgrading your smile.
Tooth gaps are common. While many patients are happy with theirs, others wish that they could fill the spaces in their smiles. Orthodontics or dental bonding can help them refine the appearance of their teeth.

Teeth Whitening
Professional teeth whitening is highly effective for extrinsic stains caused by tea, coffee, red wine, and tobacco. Our dentist offers both in-office and take-home whitening options, which can deliver dramatic results safely and effectively.
Dental Bonding
In dentistry, bonding is the process of applying tooth-colored composite resin to alter the shape or size of a tooth. Bonding is most often used to seamlessly fill in chips and small gaps.
Veneers
Veneers conceal imperfections like chips, cracks, small gaps, and stains. These strong, ultra-thin restorations are affixed to the front surfaces of teeth for a truly lifelike appearance. Dr. Mortensen offers traditional, minimal-prep, and no-prep veneers.
Dental Crowns
There may be times when cosmetic dental issues are coupled with oral health problems. For example, a tooth that has been badly decayed or weakened may require a dental crown. Our dentist in Fountain Valley places all-ceramic crowns for added strength and a natural look.
Gum Reshaping
The gums should delicately frame each tooth. Excess gingival tissue can cause your smile to look disproportionate. Laser recontouring involves artfully removing excess tissue and sculpting the gumline for a more appealing appearance.
Invisalign
Invisalign® is a popular alternative to braces that straightens teeth with clear, removable trays. This discreet orthodontic option can correct mild to moderate cases of misalignment.
Dental Implants
Tooth loss can be devastating for your dental health and confidence. Dental implants are titanium posts that restore tooth roots. Once they integrate with the jawbone, they can support dental crowns, bridges, and even dentures with unmatched stability.
Smile Makeover
Our Fountain Valley patients often have more than one cosmetic concern they wish to address. In these cases, several procedures can be combined into one streamlined treatment plan, referred to as a "smile makeover." Your makeover will be tailored to your unique needs and desires.

Cosmetic Dentistry Technology
A Spotlight On Our 3D Digital X-Rays
Dr. Mortensen invests in your comfort and care with advanced dental technologies like 3D digital X-rays. These help him identify oral health issues early, create more targeted treatment plans, and deliver more precise results.
For instance, tooth staining can sometimes indicate cavities or root canal infections. Dr. Mortensen will use advanced imaging to accurately diagnose the root cause of your discoloration and determine whether cosmetic or restorative care is the right avenue for you.
Our dentist can use his 3D imaging system to scan your mouth, teeth, gums, and jaws for a more comprehensive understanding of your unique smile. He can then take that information and craft custom plans for treatments such as dental implants and crowns.

Stay Comfortable During Your Appointment With Sedation Dentistry
Sedation dentistry isn't just used to alleviate dental sensitivity. It can also help patients who struggle with sitting still, as well as those with dental anxiety.
Our dentist can make your appointment simple and stress-free using oral conscious sedation. It allows patients to remain awake while feeling completely calm.
We'll simply prescribe a pill to take about an hour before you arrive at our Fountain Valley practice. The sedation will take effect and wear off gradually, so you'll need a trusted friend or family member to take you to your appointment and home again.
Interested? Sedation dentistry can be employed for treatment like porcelain veneers, teeth whitening, and root canal therapy.
