Teeth that are crooked, poorly shaped, discolored, gapped or have unattractive gum levels, can give a bad impression when one’s look is important – either socially or professionally. Los Angeles cosmetic dentist, Dr. Kourosh Maddahi, transforms smiles in his Beverly Hills office.
The crafting of beautiful and completely natural looking smile makeovers is an art and a science. This dentist has perfected that art and uses the newest, high-tech tools to ensure a perfect result. Too often we have seen someone with an unnatural looking new smile.
Some smile makeovers produce teeth that are too big, unnaturally small, or simply incorrect for their face or personality. Dr. Maddahi details his methodology, “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 match their personality, the symmetry of their face.”
The choices in cosmetic dentistry are abundant. Many patients were born with flawless teeth that have now yellowed, or become grey with age. A simple whitening procedure can make all the difference for this patient. Eyes may appear brighter and a more youthful appearance may result.
There are other patients who simply need to replace a few teeth, but need to match them naturally with the rest of their smile. Many orthodontic patients need to straighten up teeth that have moved over the years. Yet, many patients are ready for a complete transformation of their smile.
Cosmetic dental choices are numerous. The two that are the most popular for a smile makeover are porcelain veneers and dental implants. For lesser problems a dentist can offer porcelain crowns, bridges, recontouring, composite bonding, porcelain inlays, porcelain onlays and dentures.
Dr. Maddahi is dedicated to changing peoples lives with his work. “I had one patient come in with her gums bleeding, teeth cracked, missing and broken. In four weeks I had made her a full mouth reconstruction. She was so elated. She sat there crying, saying ‘you’ve changed my life, you’ve saved my life.’ There’s nothing I would rather do for a patient. That’s what I live for.”
A remarkable combination of technical expertise and artistry has made Dr. Maddahi one of Los Angeles' leading cosmetic dentists. His communication with his patients is a vital aspect of his service level. He works closely with each patient to find exactly what they want, and listens carefully to discover what they will be most comfortable with.
“I've always enjoyed working with my hands,” Dr. Maddahi explains, “so dentistry was a natural career choice for me. And I've been focused from the beginning. When I started my formal education, I made a commitment to excellence and I continue that commitment today.”
Dr. Maddahi is always ahead of the curve, technically. He employs every new technical advance that he finds. In order to carefully design a new smile, he employs state-of-the-art digital cosmetic imaging equipment for the patient and him to view. The split image photograph of the patient’s smile is displayed with one half showing the current smile. On the other half is the digital simulation of how the smile with look after work is complete.
Digital x-rays considerably reduce the time the patient is in the dental chair. After only three seconds, the X-ray image transmits to a computer screen. Using digital X-rays the dentist has the ability to magnify, colorize, and alter the density of the image.
Los Angeles cosmetic dentist, Dr. Kourosh Maddahi, has been in Beverly Hills for almost 25 years creating beautiful, natural smiles. He treats each patient with care and respect, striving to make their experience relaxing, stress-free and always to an ideal result.
