Tooth Preparation by Our Dental Specialists

Drs. Sheets, Paquette and Wu are specialist dentists who have had further training in the area of Prosthodontics, the rehabilitation of the mouth and replacement of teeth and other oral structures. By utilizing the dental microscope, they can magnify any area of the mouth and precisely restore damaged teeth to replicate natural beauty and function.

Well-fitting veneers, inlays, onlays and porcelain crowns will minimize sensitivity, prevent plaque build-up, and thus prevent future periodontal disease and tooth decay. Performing dentistry with high powered magnification allows Drs. Sheets, Paquette and Wu to give their patients the finest dentistry to last a lifetime!

Invisalign™

Invisalign™ utilizes a set of custom fitted clear aligners to straighten your teeth without the use of traditional wire braces. Clear aligners provide added convenience for eating, brushing and flossing. The aligners are comfortable and easy to wear, and almost undetectable to others.

Invisalign™ treatment begins with a consultation with our dentist. Once determined that you are a candidate for Invisalign™, a model of your teeth will be created on the computer to provide a step-by-step customized plan. You will see a visual representation of what your teeth can look like upon completion of treatment. A new set of aligners is given to you every two weeks. Each aligner gently shifts your teeth into position. The amount of time and number of aligners worn varies depending upon your plan.

We can help you to achieve straight teeth and a beautiful, healthy smile with Invisalign™. We are dedicated to providing you with an enjoyable dental experience. It is our top priority to deliver high quality care in a comfortable and convenient setting.

We welcome new patients of all ages at our dental practice. Contact our Newport Beach dentists today for an Invisalign™ consultation.

Preparing to Take a Final Crown Preparation Impression

This video demonstrates the detail and care taken to capture the finish line or margin of an anterior crown preparation. Due to a failed previous full porcelain crown restoration that finished deep beneath the gumline, Drs. Paquette and Sheets show how the gum tissue was carefully retracted with a very delicate retraction cord and then the crown preparation was ready for the final impression to be taken. Notice how there was no trauma or surgery necessary as the dental microscope allowed the area to be visualized and precisely managed with minimal invasion of the biologically delicate gum tissues.
