Dr. Bjornbak’s News & Updates

Poorly aligned teeth? Think it takes forever for braces to straighten them? Think again. There are many new types of braces available in Sherman Oaks. In some cases, teeth can be straightened in a few months and then, with braces off–a fantastic new smile.

If you are considering straightening your teeth, come into Sherman Oaks Dental in Sherman Oaks for an orthodontic consultation. We can discuss the new types of braces. Dr. Michael Bjornbak will explain the pros and cons of each type and recommend the most effective (and quickest!) system for your teeth.

The first things most adult Sherman Oaks teeth-straightening clients ask about are the newer systems, sometimes called clear braces and adult braces. Invisalign and damon braces are two brand names of alternative orthodontic systems popular in Sherman Oaks. Many of our adult orthodontic patients have been embarrassed by their crooked teeth for many years and have developed a habit of covering their mouth when they smile. It is great to see them smiling confidently after they have completed treatment.

Younger clients usually have a different attitude about braces. They seem to consider braces more like a fashion accessory and are not afraid to show them off. Sherman Oaks area teens are interested in color braces and colored rubber bands braces. During orthodontic consultations, they usually ask about the possibility of a clear retainer to maintain teeth alignment after their braces have done their job.

There is nothing like bright white teeth that light up a person’s whole face when they smile and laugh. No one has to settle for dull, yellow teeth.

This is a great time for Burbank men, women and teens to get a deep teeth cleaning and tooth whitening at Sherman Oaks Dental in Sherman Oaks. With a deep cleaning followed by teeth bleaching, your teeth will feel as good as they look.

If you have an important upcoming event such as a Studio City wedding, Encino party or formal family portrait sitting, a smile makeover will give you extra confidence as you pose for photos (even close-ups).

Burbank teeth bleaching can whiten teeth beyond their natural shade. At our Sherman Oaks cosmetic dentistry practice, we don’t use a conventional shade chart for our Encino whitening clients anymore. You have probably seen the porcelain tabs in graduated shades that Sherman Oaks tooth whitening dentists use to determine appropriate, yet natural looking, shades for tooth restorations. We now use a shade guide with levels significantly whiter than the guides we have used in the past. Tooth whitening is not a gimmick; it is safe and incredibly effective. Burbank tooth bleaching clients can maintain a white shade that equals the brightness of the ‘tooth’ models you see in dental marketing.

Burbank tooth whitening following twice-yearly cleanings is the most affordable cosmetic dentistry procedure. Tooth bleaching in Sherman Oaks is comparable to the cost of a professional hair weaving and cut, but when you consider the transformation, there is no comparison! Flash your gorgeous, sparkling smile, and no one will even notice your hair.
