COVID-19 UPDATES

 
To our patients,
 
 
As you know your care and safety and the safety of our team is our top priority.
 
Recommendations to dental offices are changing rapidly regarding shelter in place, social distancing and essential dental treatment. We are working hard to remain compliant with the recommendation by the American Dental Association, California Dental Association and our Governor that California dentists suspend all care other than essential and emergency treatment.
 
If you have any questions regarding your dental care or have urgent concerns, please call us or send a direct message through our website; we are here for you and will be seeing emergency patients.
 
Our phones will be answered during our normal business hours and, as always, we can be reached outside of the business hours for any emergency calls.
 
We are looking forward to returning to patient care and the opportunity to once again visit with our dental family of patients…we miss you all!
 
 
Thank you for being our patients!
 
Dr. Sharon Mateja and Team, Jennifer, Deanna, Sandra & Erika

Enhance Your Smile

Cosmetic Dentistry Rancho Cucamonga

Porcelain Veneers

If you feel self-conscious about stained, worn, or chipped teeth, porcelain dental veneers are a great option. Veneers are thin pieces of porcelain that are custom-created to match the shape and natural tint of your teeth. Before applying your veneers, Dr. Mateja will provide you with a complete digital mockup and a waxup. Once the veneers have been created, she will gently remove a thin layer of enamel from the front surface of the tooth before cementing the veneers in place. When the process is completed, you can enjoy a stunning, symmetrical smile.

All-porcelain Crowns

Though crowns are often associated with restorative dentistry, they can also be used for cosmetic applications. Porcelain crowns are often used to cover severely stained, damaged, or worn teeth, and are custom-made in an off-site lab to look like your natural teeth. They are placed on top of the tooth, covering it to the gum line. As with all her procedures, Dr. Mateja will work closely with you to meet your cosmetic goals while maintaining functionality and a balanced bite.

Teeth Whitening

Even if you brush and floss regularly, your teeth can become stained. Food and drinks such as coffee, tea, red wine, and berries can stain your teeth, and other factors such as age, genetics, and smoking can likewise darken your smile. Fortunately, Dr. Mateja offers a variety of tooth whitening options including at-home custom trays and in-office Zoom!™ treatment. Dr. Mateja will work closely with you to determine the method that will best suit your needs and personal goals.

Dental Bonding

During the process of dental bonding, Dr. Mateja will apply a tooth-colored resin to cover minor imperfections in your teeth. This resin can also fill in noticeable gaps between teeth. After gently etching the tooth to provide a better bonding surface, she will carefully shape the resin to match the contour of your tooth. Once the material is properly shaped and smoothed, she will harden it with a curing light. Then she will trim and polish the resin, leaving you with a natural-looking tooth free from noticeable flaws or stains.

Gum Lifting

Excessive gum tissue can cause your teeth to appear worn, underdeveloped, or unhealthy.  During a gum lift, Dr. Mateja uses a state-of-the-art diode laser to remove excess tissue and reshape your gum line. After a gum lift, your smile can look healthier and more attractive. Because Dr. Mateja uses a laser to perform this procedure, it involves minimal discomfort, and requires virtually no down time. A gum lift may be recommended in conjunction with a crown or porcelain veneer.

Smile Makeover

If you have multiple cosmetic goals for your smile, you may be a candidate for a smile makeover, which combines two or more cosmetic procedures to provide a beautiful overall enhancement. Before beginning a smile makeover, you will receive a comprehensive exam from Dr. Mateja, in which she will evaluate your overall medical and dental health and discuss your goals for the makeover. Together, you can craft a treatment plan that will help you achieve the smile you have always wanted.
