Cosmetic work at Menifee Town Center starts with an exam

Most people arrive with one thing in mind: a chipped front tooth, a gap, a dark old filling, teeth that have crowded. The first appointment at Anthem Dental - Menifee is an exam and X-rays, because decay or gum disease has to be dealt with before anything is made to look better — and because the answer is often simpler than expected.

Surface stain from coffee, tea or red wine is one of the most common reasons people ask about cosmetic work, and the place to start with it is a professional cleaning. Cleanings can be booked on Saturdays at Menifee.

Veneers, bonding, tooth-colored fillings, porcelain crowns and Invisalign are all done here. Each option is priced in writing before you choose, and the front desk can go through it with you in English or Spanish.

Call to ask

Porcelain crowns in Menifee

When a crown is the cosmetic answer — and why it takes two visits

A crown covers the whole visible part of a tooth, so it changes shape, color and strength at once. It is usually the right choice when a tooth is more filling than tooth, has a crack, or has had root canal treatment and needs protecting — and, at the front of the mouth, when a tooth is too discolored or broken for bonding or a veneer to hide.

The two appointments

  • Preparation. The tooth is numbed and shaped, a digital scan records it, the shade is chosen against the teeth beside it, and a temporary crown goes on.
  • Fitting. The porcelain crown is tried in and checked with you for fit, bite and color, adjusted if needed, and then cemented.

Crowns are not made on the same day here: the gap between the two visits is when the porcelain is made from the scan.

Living with the temporary

A temporary crown is shaped to protect the tooth, not to last. Chew on the other side where you can, avoid sticky foods, and slide floss out sideways rather than lifting it up. If it comes loose, call — putting it back is quick.

Looking after the finished crown

Porcelain does not decay, but the tooth underneath still can, right where the crown meets the gum. Brush and floss that edge like any other tooth, keep up regular cleanings, and if you grind at night, ask about a night guard to protect the porcelain.

Fitting it in

Anthem Dental - Menifee is in Menifee Town Center at 30145 Antelope Road, Suite 105, Menifee, and sees cosmetic patients from Menifee, Sun City, Canyon Lake and Perris. The exam that starts a crown can be booked on a Saturday; the preparation and fitting are booked on the days they are scheduled.

Planning around a date

Wedding, graduation or photos coming up? Work back from the day

Cosmetic work runs on the calendar more than people expect. A rough guide to leaving enough time at the Menifee office:

  • Bonding a chip or small gap is often finished in one visit, so it can come close to the date.
  • Porcelain veneers or crowns typically take two to three visits, with a few weeks between the preparation and the final fitting while the porcelain is made.
  • Straightening with aligners takes months — start the conversation well ahead if you want it finished by the day.
  • A cleaning a week or two before helps with the surface stain that builds up between visits.

Saturdays and weekdays

The first exam can be on a Saturday; preparation and fitting visits are booked on the days they are scheduled, which the front desk will tell you. The office is in Menifee Town Center at 30145 Antelope Road, Suite 105, Menifee. Free parking throughout the Menifee Town Center lot, with accessible spaces near Suite 105.

FAQ

Cosmetic dentistry in Menifee, CA — your questions, answered.

What cosmetic dental services do you offer in Menifee?

Porcelain veneers, dental bonding, composite (tooth-colored) fillings, porcelain crowns and Invisalign clear aligners, all at the Menifee office with Dr. Henry Abraham.

My teeth look stained. Where do I start?

With an exam and a professional cleaning, which clears much of the surface stain that builds up from coffee, tea and red wine. If a stained tooth needs more, such as an old filling or a discolored tooth, the options are explained after the exam.

Can a chipped front tooth be fixed in one visit?

Often. A small chip can usually be repaired with bonding at a single appointment in Menifee; a bigger break may need a crown, which takes two.

Are veneers hard on the teeth underneath?

Placing porcelain veneers means shaving a little enamel off the front of each tooth, which cannot be undone. That is why the consultation looks at gentler options first, and why you get time to decide.

Can I book a cosmetic consultation on a Saturday?

A new-patient exam — the first step for any cosmetic plan — can be booked on a Saturday at the Menifee office, open 10 AM to 6 PM that day.

Does insurance pay for cosmetic dentistry?

Treatment done purely for appearance is often not covered, while repairing a broken or decayed tooth may be. The front desk checks your plan and gives you a written estimate before you decide, and CareCredit can spread the cost.
