Sedation Cosmetic Dentist San Francisco, Oakland, Piedmont, Berkeley, Orinda, Lafayette, Walnut Creek, Alameda, Emeryville, Albany, El Cerrito, Moraga, Kensington

Patients always appreciate a comfortable, painless, experience at the dentist. Whether you need emergency procedures, such as composite white fillings, crowns, root canals or extractions, to relieve toothache pain; or if you want elective cosmetic dentistry such as a smile makeover, porcelain veneers, Emax crowns, Empress Veneers, Da Vinci veneers, or Lumineers. Or even if you've been putting off general dentistry such as x rays, cleanings, tooth replacements, bridge work, partial dentures or dentures. Sedation dentistry may be right for you. Sedation at Dr. Bernstein's office in Piedmont ranges from very light sedation with nitrous oxide, laughing gas, Ativan or Valium, to moderate sedation with triazolam and hydroxyzine. We can even use our dentist anesthesiologist to provide I.V. sedation for you. Some patients can have even extensive procedures without sedation, while others need strong sedatives for a dental cleaning. No matter what your needs, we want your visit to be completely comfortable and painless. Call us today to arrange a consultation to find out how we can help you enjoy all the benefits of good dental health and beautiful teeth, without suffering needlessly as you may have in the past. Dr. Bernstein is licensed and experienced in sedation. Your comfort and safety are our highest priorities.

Invisalign San Francisco Oakland, Piedmont, Berkeley, Orinda, Lafayette, Walnut Creek, Alameda, Emeryville, Albany, El Cerrito, Moraga, Kensington

Increasing numbers of patients prefer Invisalign to metal braces. Invisalign has some real advantages:

1. The aligners are make it easier to clean your teeth than with braces because the aligners are removable.

2. The aligners are clear so they're almost invisable which makes smiling in public a lot easier.

3. A lot of people are allergic to the metal in braces which makes the gums swell. This isn't a problem with Invisalign.

4. Invisalgn aligners are a lot more comfortable than braces.

5. Faster treatment times than braces, varying from 6-18 months.

6. Predictable improvement of the bite, using computer aided design.

If you've been wanting to straighten your teeth or improve your bite, but the thought of braces discouraged you, come in and talk to us about Invisalign. It's a great option. You've probably heard Invisalgn's motto: "The Clear Alternative to Braces." Call us in our Piedmont office at 510-601-7645 for a consultation with Dr. Bernstein about Invisalign.
