LASER DENTISTRY Greater Comfort Heat and vibration are what make dental drills hurt. Fortunately, we have a new technology that can replace the drill for many dental procedures. The Waterlase® laser does a lot of work we used to do with a drill - without the heat, vibration and noise. The Waterlase® laser uses a gentle combination of laser energy and water that works without ever touching your teeth. That means we can use fewer shots and less anesthetic in many cases. The laser works on teeth as well as gums. A New Standard of Dental Care No one likes to leave the dentist’s office with a numb lip. If your laser procedure can be done without anesthetic, you’ll be able to avoid this uncomfortable side effect. We are proud to be one of a small group of offices that have this state of the art technology     CEREC 3 A revolutionary procedure has been developed whereby damaged teeth may be restored with an all porcelain crown, in a single visit. The CEREC 3 is a hi-tech computer which allows us to take a digital photo of the questionable tooth, thus avoiding the need for impressions and temporaries. It then, in matter of minutes, fabricates a restoration, which gets bonded to your natural tooth using state-of-the-art adhesive dentistry. You no longer will be inconvenienced by returning to the dental office for a second visit two weeks later! The CEREC 3 creates an extremely precise restoration. A high-speed diamond bur and disc, work simultaneously to mill the restoration out of a solid block of ceramic material. You can actually watch us design your new restoration on a full-color computer monitor, and view the milling process too. Dr. Grossman & Associates are the only dental office in West Los Angels that currently offers this service. INVISALIGN Very few people have naturally straight teeth, and for years, braces have been the only corrective option. Until now! We'd like to introduce you to Invisalign: a revolutionary new way to straighten teeth - without braces. Invisalign uses a series of nearly undetectable "aligners" instead of "brackets" and "wires". It is very difficult for people to discern that you are wearing Invisalign, even up close. It is also a removable appliance, so you can enjoy eating comfortably, and it's subsequently easy to brush and floss your teeth. Invisalign can give you the smile you've always wanted. We are proud to be one of the few authorized offices that are trained and certified to treat you with Invisalign.
