The practice of restoring broken, damaged, and decayed teeth allows people worldwide to maintain healthy smiles.

A decayed, broken down smile will also have a negative impact on personal self confidence.

Marielaina Perrone DDS has multiple ways to repair, restore, and enhance any smile. Below you will learn about 3 of them that can transform any smile from ordinary to extraordinary.

Porcelain Veneers

Sometimes referred to as a Hollywood smile or even instant orthodontics. Porcelain veneers can make minor alignment corrections but can also give you an entirely new perfect smile.

Dental Veneers Procedure

An impression of your smile is first made that helps Dr. Perrone create customized porcelain veneers to your exact specifications.

The final veneers are chemically bonded to your teeth giving you a smile that you have always dreamed of.

Benefits of Dental Veneers

• Natural esthetic results
• Versatile and easily adapted to patients needs and desires
• Can last up to 10-15 years with proper care
• Durable and stain-resistant

Who is A Candidate?

First and foremost, a patient must be free of tooth decay and periodontal disease. A good foundational is necessary for a long term cosmetic result. A patient whose teeth are discolored, misshapen, slightly misaligned, and/or have gaps are perfect candidates.

Dental Implants

Tooth loss is a much more common phenomenon than we would like. Luckily, dental implants can restore your smile in a way that brings esthetics, function, and comfort.

Dental Implants Procedure

There are three general steps to placing and restoring a dental implant:

Step 1: The Dental implant is placed directly into the jawbone. In about 6 months time it fuses into the jawbone to serve as the new tooth’s root.

Step 2: An abutment and dental crown are custom fabricated for the new tooth.

Step 3: The dental crown and abutment are fixed to the implant to restore and enhance your smile.

Dental Implants Benefits

• Replaces damaged or broken teeth
• Improves functionality 
• Improves overall smile esthetics
• With proper care should last a lifetime

Dental Implant Candidates

Dental implants are an ideal treatment for patients who are missing teeth due to trauma or have damaged teeth that need to replacement.

Dental Bonding

Dental bonding is a dental restorative procedure that targets the surface of the teeth to create a bright, beautiful smile.

Dental bonding is a quick process with minimal downtime. It is very appealing for those who do not want to invest financially or time in their smile.

How Dental Bonding Is Done

Dr. Perrone carefully chooses a color shade that will match with your natural smile.

The dental resin is applied, sculpted, molded, and hardened with a special dental light.

Benefits of Dental Bonding

• Quick, cheaper procedure
• Provides immediate, visible improvement
• Lasts up to 10 years with proper care
• Customized for each patient

Dental Bonding Candidates

For patients who are simply looking for cosmetic improvement or whose teeth are only slightly damaged, dental bonding is a better alternative than more invasive methods like dental implants.

Dental implants are a long-term, durable, and cosmetic solution to the loss of a single tooth or multiple teeth. 

Since dental implants are integrated to the bone in your mouth they will not slip and slide like traditional denture options. 

With proper dental hygiene maintenance, dental implants will last for decades of use.

In modern cosmetic dentistry, dental implants have become a staple procedure. Patients and dentists love the ability to replace natural teeth so safely and effectively. 

It is estimated that over three million people already have dental implants. With another 50,000 added per year. That is quite the popular option!

Below are tips to make dental implants last a lifetime!

How to Care for Dental Implants?

Dental implants are a permanent addition to your smile. This also means they need to be cared for just like your natural teeth.

It is recommended that you brush and floss regularly to keep plaque and bacteria build up at bay. Brushing your implants with a soft-bristled toothbrush and non-abrasive toothpaste at least twice a day helps reduces the likelihood of dental infection. A dental infection can lead to implant loss and other health concerns.

Flossing Tips

Be sure to carefully clean around your implant by flossing underneath the implant crown. While the dental implant itself cannot get tooth decay, a periodontal infection can develop in the gum tissues and bone surrounding the dental implant. It is also recommended to use an ADA approved mouthrinse to control bacteria levels.

Developing a good oral hygiene regimen at home will help keep your implants clean and ensure their longevity. 

Maintain regular dental visits to keep your dental implant healthy as well as the rest of your smile.

How Successful Are Dental Implants?

Dental implants have a high success rate of over 98%, and most patients are amazed at how natural and strong they feel as part of their smile.

Nobody ever wants to consider losing a tooth, but at least there are options that are both functional and esthetic.

Dental implants have become the go-to treatment to replace a single tooth, multiple teeth, or even a complete smile. Restoration of your smile will improve self confidence and overall health. 

There are 3 requirements that a patient must have before undergoing dental implant surgery and they include:

• Good overall health
• Healthy gums (free of periodontal disease)
• Sufficient bone in your jaw

A dental implant is made up of 3 separate elements:

1. The implant body is made of titanium. Titanium is lightweight, durable, and strong. It can accommodate one tooth or several. The implant body becomes the base for your artificial crown.
2. The abutment: This is a connector that anchors your tooth to the post and is installed after the post has fused to your jawbone.
3. The crown: This is the visible part of the dental implant. This is the final step in the implant process.

What Are Dental Implants?

Dental implants are artificial teeth that are permanently placed in the bone. They are modeled after your natural teeth, so they will look, feel, and function just like them

Dental implants enable clear, articulate speech and allow you to eat all of your favorite foods.

Dental Implants Mimic Natural Teeth?

Your new teeth will have the same size, shape, and color of your natural teeth, so no one will will ever know you have undergone any treatment. They will give you peace of mind to enjoy your favorite foods and speak without fear of slipping or falling out.

What Happens When I Have Implant Surgery?

Typical steps include:

• Extracting the damaged teeth and performing any other necessary dental procedures.
• Preparing of the implant site for your surgical procedure.
• If a bone graft is needed, it can be completed at this time.
• Installing the body of the dental implant in the bone.
• Allow time for healing and growth/fusion with bone.
• Installing the custom dental abutment and making impressions of your teeth and gums.
• Placement of your final dental crowns.

The time needed for your implant process will depends on each individual and the number of implants placed.

Will a Bone Graft be needed?

Every patient is different. At your evaluation, the possible need for a bone graft will be discussed.

What Are My Post-Surgery Instructions?

Many patients experience some minor bleeding, bruising, swelling, and discomfort after placement of dental implants. This is all quite normal. Your symptoms should subside in a few days. Pain medication can be taken as needed.

Crooked or misaligned teeth can cause self confidence issues for some. Finding the right orthodontic treatment to enhance your smile can sometimes be challenging. Invisalign ha become one of the most popular orthodontic options due to the ease of use and esthetics. Marielaina Perrone DDS can help you determine IF Invisalign is the right option for you.

What Are Invisalign Clear Aligners?

Most people are familiar with traditional braces and their metal wires and brackets. Invisalign represents an improved esthetic way to straighten teeth and to correct your smile.

Custom clear aligner trays are fabricated that slowly move misaligned teeth into the proper position. These trays are designed to be worn in sequence, with each successive aligner making slight changes through gentle pressure on your smile. Once treatment is complete you can enjoy the brilliant and beautiful smile you have always wanted.

Is Invisalign Right for Your Smile?

Invisalign is a great choice for many patients. It is not the ideal choice for all patients, however.

Invisalign is not a good choice for the following smiles:

• Patients who have severe misalignments or problems with their bite typically will need to undergo traditional braces.
• Younger children who are still growing may experience changes in the shape or the size of their jaw and their teeth during the orthodontic process. This can require taking additional molds and restarting the Invisalign process, which can be 
  • More expensive compared to traditional braces.
  • Patients who cannot wear their aligners for a minimuk of 20 hours per day are not good candidates for Invisalign.

  What Is the Process for Invisalign?

  Treatment typically begins with an orthodontic consultation. This will allow Dr Perrone to determine the best course of treatment for your orthodontic issues. 

  If Invisalign is right for your smile, you will use several different aligners that you will wear in sequential order. Each of these aligners will apply small amounts of pressure to your teeth to move them into the right position. After going through all of your aligners, your teeth will be in proper alignment.

• During this process, periodic dental visits are needed. Most people will recognize cosmetic results from Invisalign treatment within a few weeks. The entire course of treatment could take as long as 12 to 18 months. Each patient will follow a different timeline depending on amount of correction needed.

• 

•  

  Will My Invisalign Aligners Impact My Daily Activities?

  Most patients wear their aligners for between 20 and 22 hours a day. This is necessary to achieve the optimal cosmetic and functional results.

• You will be able to to remove the aligners to eat, drink and brush your teeth.

  Maintaining good dental hygiene is important throughout the process to keep your teeth and gums health while you are undergoing Invisalign treatment.

  What Happens Following Completion Of Invisalign in Henderson NV?

  Once your treatment is completed, a retainer may be needed to maintain your new smile.

Porcelain veneers are wafer-thin coverings composed of a dental composite or dental porcelain material chemically to the front of the teeth to alter your smile's shape, size, and color. The surface of your existing teeth is prepared to allow for a bond with the porcelain material, which is far less preparation of natural tooth structure performed with a porcelain crown. Veneers give cosmetic dentists in Henderson NV, the ability to improve smile imperfections like discoloration, cracks, gaps between teeth, chips, slight misalignments, and decay. Veneers can transform your smile.

Candidates for Porcelain Veneers

The Dental Veneer Procedure

Following your cosmetic consultation with Marielaina Perrone, DDS, you will know if she believes you are a good candidate for dental veneers. 

Initial Visit

Once cosmetic dentist Marielaina Perrone DDS determines you to be a good candidate, the first step is to take a series of digital x-rays and dental impressions. Dr. Perrone will then take some time to discuss your smile goals and the desired results of your new smile. This cosmetic consultation will include a model created to show you how the final results will look. 

Dental Veneers Procedure

The procedure will begin with removing a small fraction of enamel from the surface of each tooth to allow for proper bonding and not affect the current occlusal bite. Following tooth preparation, an impression is taken of the teeth to custom create your new veneers. Temporary veneers will be custom fabricated and placed. Once the finished veneers return from the lab, Dr. Perrone will prepare each tooth to create an ideal surface for bonding. A special dental light will also be used on each veneer to create a stable and durable bond. Once the light is complete, the porcelain veneers are permanently in place.

Recovery

There is almost no recovery from the porcelain veneers procedure. Some patients may experience tooth sensitivity to hot and cold drinks and food for a short time. 

Porcelain veneers are an ideal and attractive choice to improve your smile and self-confidence.

There are multiple options for nonsurgical skin rejuvenation options to help you reverse the signs of aging and restore a more youthful appearance. One of the most popular skin rejuvenators used for this purpose is the dermal filler, Juvederm.

Juvederm is one of the more versatile fillers available on the market today. This allows cosmetic dentist Marielaina Perrone DDS the ability to customize your esthetic treatment.

Dr Perrone offers a no cost cosmetic consultation at her cosmetic dentist office in Henderson NV. She will be able to customize an aesthetic treatment that is right for you and your goals.

What Is Juvederm?

Juvederm is a dermal filler comprised of hyaluronic acid. This acid is a naturally occurring substance in our bodies. As we age, the levels of hyaluronic acid in your skin decrease. This results in a loss of volume and structure that will lead to the formation of fine lines and wrinkles on the face. Juvederm replaces this lost hyaluronic acid to fill in fine wrinkles, restore lost volume, and potentially achieve a youthful, rested appearance.

Juvederm is a hyaluronic acid gel filler that provides greater predictability with cosmetic results, and potentially gives a more natural looking outcome than other dermal fillers on the market today.

What Can Juvederm Correct?

Juvederm can be used for the following:

• Fill in smile lines
• Improve the appearance of nasolabial folds
• Plump up thin lips
• Add volume to hollow cheeks
• Fill in deep lines and wrinkles

Juvederm Procedure

Your Juvederm procedure typically takes about 15-30 minutes to complete and is performed by Marielaina Perrone DDS. Dr. Perrone will inject Juvederm dermal fillers beneath the surface of your skin. There is typically little to no downtime, and patient usually resume normal activities almost immediately.

Esthetic results generally appear right away following treatment and can potentially last up to one year. Long term results vary from patient to patient. Follow up treatments will be necessary to extend the results even longer.

Please contact cosmetic dentist Marielaina Perrone DDS today to schedule your no cost Juvederm consultation today. We serve patients in Henderson, Summerlin, and Las Vegas, NV areas.

WHAT IS BOTOX?

Marielaina Perrone DDS in Henderson, NV is pleased to offer BOTOX to her patients. This nonsurgical esthetic procedure provides outstanding cosmetic results and is available for both women and men.

Botox injectable can give a dramatic aesthetic improvement to facial wrinkles. These wrinkles result from our expressive movement with the contracting muscles on the forehead and around the eyes.

When injected into the facial muscles, BOTOX temporarily blocks specific muscle movements to soften the appearance of dynamic wrinkles. BOTOX injections are most commonly administered between the eyebrows, Crow's feet, and across the forehead.

BENEFITS OF BOTOX

An individualized BOTOX treatment plan designed by Marielaina Perrone DDS can help you look younger quickly. Other benefits include::

• Smoothing fine wrinkles and lines
• Preventing the formation of new creases and wrinkles
• Creating a more rested, youthful appearance
• Quick results without the need for surgical intervention
• Highly effective for both men and women
• Proven safe and effective

BOTOX FOR TMJ

The masseter muscle is located on the side of your face. The main role of this muscle is to help you chew your food properly. With properly placed injections, the masseter muscle can be relaxed resulting in many benefits for patients experiencing migraines and TMJ issues.

Benefits include:

• Relief for Teeth grinding
• Creating a symmetrical face profile
• Relieve tension or migraine headaches
• Reduce jaw tension and habitual clenching
• Recontouring jaw into a more square shape

WHO IS AN IDEAL CANDIDATE FOR BOTOX?

BOTOX injections are ideal for men and women who want to:

• Lessen and soften the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles on the face
• As a wrinkle preventive treatment
• Lessen appearance of crow's feet by the eyes

For deeper lines, a filler product (Juvederm dermal filler) may be a better esthetic option.

HOW DOES BOTOX WORK?

BOTOX injectable treatments are performed right in our office by Marielaina Perrone DDS. Following a cosmetic consultation to determine treatment needed and desired, you will be asked to make various expressions using the upper face, like squinting and frowning, to give Dr Perrone a guide where the injections should be applied.

The injection sites will be cleansed thoroughly and BOTOX will be applied using a fine needle. Following injection a cold compress will be usedto help decrease discomfort and possible bruising. A numbing cream is also available if needed to help make the entire process more comfortable. BOTOX treatments generally take about 15-20 minutes, and you can typically return to your usual non strenuous activities after leaving the office.

WHAT CAN I EXPECT AFTER BOTOX?

Strenuous activity should be postponed for at least 24 hours. Dr Perrone will advise you to keep your head elevated for at least one night and to avoid touching your face, which may accidentally spread the BOTOX to undesired areas.

The injection sites may develop bruising, swelling, or redness but you should not have any long-lasting side effects. For many patients, it takes about a week for results to show fully. The results typically last 3 – 4 months before needing a touch up to maintain your youthful look.

BOTOX = LESS WRINKLES

Teeth whitening is a highly effective and safe esthetic treatment to eliminate stains and discoloration, allowing you to enjoy a whiter, brighter smile. Teeth whitening typically comes in 2 forms, at home and dentist-supervised in the office. 

Below, cosmetic dentist Marielaina Perrone DDS will compare in-office whitening to at-home whitening. The pros and cons of each will also be discussed.

Understanding Professional Teeth Whitening

Professional teeth whitening is completed in a dental office under dentist supervision. Marielaina Perrone DDS will apply a special bleaching gel to your teeth, and then the gel will be activated using a special lighting system. This process may be repeated several times to achieve the desired esthetic results. Your smile looks brighter, and stains are remarkably less noticeable immediately following a teeth whitening treatment.

Understanding At-Home Teeth Whitening

Some patients choose to complete teeth whitening at home instead of in the office. At-home teeth whitening typically involves wearing either bleaching trays that fit over the teeth or the use of drug store gel strips. The trays or strips must be worn for approximately 6-8 hours daily for about 10 to 14 days.

A major drawback of at-home teeth whitening is that the bleaching agent is less concentrated. This will cause the whitening to take longer to see the desired esthetic results, and the final cosmetic result may not be as dramatic as in-office teeth whitening.

Marielaina Perrone DDS believes dental implants are the ideal tooth replacement for your smile. However, are they right for your smile? If you have lost a single tooth or multiple teeth, below are a few things you should know about the dental implant procedure.

Dental implants act as a replacement for the root of the missing tooth.

Dental implant restorations are anchored by a post (the actual implant) placed in the bone and act like your natural tooth root. The dental implant is intimately connected via a process called osseointegration. This process keeps the bones stimulated and prevents them from resorbing over time. This bone maintenance will give you a more youthful appearance than if it was to resorb away.

The placement procedure and restoration have multiple steps.

Dental implants are placed during a surgical procedure performed by a qualified and experienced implant dentist. Osseointegration with the bone takes about 4-6 months to complete, creating a solid base for the eventual replacement tooth. Once fusion is complete, a dental crown will be placed on top of the dental implant to restore and enhance your smile.

Dental Implants are considered a permanent solution to tooth loss.

Dental implants are designed with proper maintenance to be permanent. A properly designed, placed, and cared for implant can last a lifetime. Because they stand alone (unlike a dental bridge), they do not cause stress to the adjacent teeth.

They are low maintenance.

Dental implants can be brushed and flossed just like natural teeth and cannot develop tooth decay. However, they can develop an infection in the bone and periodontal disease without proper care. Care should include at-home dental hygiene maintenance as well as regular visits to the dentist.

Dental Implants are highly customized for each patient.

Treatment is highly customized to the unique needs of each patient. Factors include how many teeth need replacement, where they are located in the mouth and the number and type of implants utilized.

If you are unhappy with the aesthetic appearance of your smile, cosmetic dentist Marielaina Perrone DDS can use various dental procedures to enhance your smile. Cosmetic dentistry treatments, technology, and materials continue to move forward, offering patients more options than ever to achieve the ideal smile of their dreams. Below you will read about some of the most common cosmetic dentistry in Henderson, NV.

In-Office Teeth Whitening

In-office teeth whitening is typically completed in one appointment. The teeth whitening procedure involves applying a specialized gel with a powerful bleaching agent to the teeth, activated by a specialized light. 

Following treatment, you may receive custom whitening trays and gel to use at home to enhance and maintain your results periodically.

Why patients choose teeth whitening:

• Whitening is perfect for lifting stains caused by red wine, coffee, tea, smoking, and certain medications
• Minimal discomfort (some patients will experience temporary tooth sensitivity)
• Fast, uniform esthetic results
• A whiter smile exhibits a healthier and more youthful smile
• Cost-effective

Porcelain Veneers

Porcelain veneers are tiny porcelain shells chemically bonded to the front surfaces of your teeth. These can hide imperfections and create a more uniform-looking smile. Veneers are commonly used to hide small tooth chips or cracks, uneven tooth edges, small misalignments, stains, or discoloration that will not respond to whitening or even abnormally shaped teeth.

Veneers typically require one to two visits to design and place.

Why patients choose veneers:

• Can quickly transform an imperfect smile into a flawless one
• Custom shade matching to the surrounding teeth for a uniform cosmetic result
• Conservative treatment as just a small amount of natural tooth structure is removed
• Lasting results with the proper at-home care and dental maintenance

Dental Bonding

Dental bonding is applying a tooth-colored resin using specialized light to cover tooth chips, cracks, stains, or gaps between teeth. The material can be sculpted and molded to improve the tooth’s size, shape, and spacing. It blends in seamlessly with your natural smile and is virtually undetectable.

Bonding typically takes one appointment to complete.

Why patients choose dental bonding:

• Fast cosmetic results
• Little tooth structure needs to be removed
• Inexpensive compared to other esthetic treatments
• Results last a long time

Veneers For A Smile That Is Flawless

Veneers are a fast way to achieve a beautiful smile. They are ideal for smiles with teeth that are chipped, discolored, or with a few small spaces between teeth. Because veneers are attached to the front surface of your natural teeth, they are excellent for covering minor smile flaws. Veneers are much less invasive than dental crowns and achieve esthetic results much faster than orthodontics (Invisalign or traditional). A well-designed veneer case typically takes two visits.

Let Your White Smile Shine

Unlike your natural teeth, veneers are made of porcelain that naturally resists stains from coffee, tea, and smoking. Veneers can make even the most discolored and stained teeth appear bright white.

Low Maintenance

Porcelain has many of the same characteristics s your natural teeth. They are white and translucent. Translucency means that light reflects just as it does natural tooth enamel. The veneer is chemically bonded to the front of your tooth. This binding means dental hygiene maintenance is just like with your natural teeth. Brushing and flossing are expected as normal to maintain your new smile. Porcelain veneers can last between 10 and 20 years as long as they are properly maintained thru dental hygiene.

Conservative Cosmetic Approach

With veneers, only a small amount of natural tooth structure is removed. In order to allow for the veneer placement, your dentist will have to remove approximately a millimeter of natural tooth enamel. By removing very little natural tooth structure, dental veneers can refresh the esthetics of your natural teeth without sacrificing their stability and strength.

Personalized Cosmetic Dentistry

Las Vegas Dentist Marielaina Perrone DDS will begin treatment with a cosmetic consultation. This will include a personalized smile analysis to determine the best approach for achieving your desired smile. By individually sculpting veneers to the patient's specifications, it becomes nearly impossible to tell the difference between the veneer and the adjacent natural teeth. Veneers also are customized based on color or shade. Some patients choose a shade close to their natural tooth color, so the change is not as noticeable, while others go much whiter for a more daring result.

Celebrities and social media influencers have invested in their smiles using cosmetic dentistry and dental veneers. 

Veneers are an irreversible treatment and a substantial financial investment. Veneers can be a big decision and one that should be made between yourself and your dentist.

Marielaina Perrone DDS believes everyone deserves to have a healthy, beautiful, and functional smile.

Finally, creating the smile you have always dreamed of will be an exciting journey, as well as a journey that can be a bit nerve-wracking. It's a big step to take, after all! Marielaina Perrone DDS wants you to experience the comfort and confidence that comes from a beautiful, healthy smile.

Dr. Perrone takes a gentle, individualized approach to all dental care coupled with advanced technology to provide you with a convenient and pleasant visit every time we see you walk through the door.

For patients forced to wear dentures, this can be an unfortunate thing to accept. Luckily, there is advanced technology and techniques available that can make the process as comfortable.

One of those comfortable ways is using the All-On-Four Dental Implant procedure. Marielaina Perrone DDS in Las Vegas, NV, is proud to offer this service.

Below are four benefits you will gain from the All-On-Four dental implant procedure.

1.) All-On-Four Dental Implants Means Security 

One of the most significant benefits of the All-On-Four procedure is its security. There are four different points where implants are placed that secure the dentures. Patients will have the ability to eat and speak as normal without fear.

2.) All-On-Four Dental Implants Give A Natural Looking Smile

With advancements in denture fabrication, your smile will look very natural. Your dentist can even use photos of you with a full smile to add personal imperfections, so no one will ever know.

3.) All-On-Four Dental Implants PREVENTS Future Bone Loss

With tooth loss, the bones of the jaws will slowly deteriorate, leaving little bone. This can increase fracture and give you an aged appearance as your cheeks appear sunken. All-On-Four dental implants provide bone stimulation that prevents future bone loss and maintains the density and shape of the jaw bones.

4.) All-On-Fours Can Be Completed in ONE DAY

You read that correctly. The four dental implants can be placed in one day — patients now can enjoy the esthetic and functional benefits of a complete set of teeth without the wait.
