Will your California dental insurance cover cosmetic dental procedures? Many people assume their dental insurance won’t cover any procedures obtained solely for cosmetic purposes. This is probably true for tooth bleaching or dental bonding. However, many California dental insurance plans and supplemental plans cover orthodontia and any treatment required to repair damage from an injury. Medical insurance and worker’s compensation plans may also cover injury treatment.
Ask Your Provider, You May be Surprised
Some dental insurance plans cover replacement porcelain veneers in certain circumstances. Check with your carrier for benefit specifics if you need replacement veneers due to deterioration. We can then look at treatment options such as replacement veneers or porcelain crowns. When the treatment is completed, we may be able to help you submit your dental claim form if your plan requires one.

Sometimes when people lose a back tooth they wonder whether they should bother doing anything about it. After all, the gap doesn’t show when they smile and there are other teeth to do the chewing. Why not leave it be and save some money? Actually, there are several very good reasons to replace a back tooth with a dental implant from Floor Dental Group in Cupertino CA.
The adjacent tooth – or teeth – may start shifting. If a tooth tilts, moves, or rotates, it can impact the bite. The unopposed tooth can also move, though it generally moves outward from the bone (over-eruption). Teeth that are displaced can become more vulnerable to gum disease, decay, or TMJ pain.
The underlying bone will begin to atrophy. Without the tooth root, the jaw bone shrinks. This changes the dimensions of the face and gives it a sunk-in look due to a decline in supporting bone. The vertical shortening progresses and becomes more pronounced as you get older.
There will be additional stress on the teeth that take over the chewing functions. This can bring about excessive wear, fracture, or pain.

If you or someone you care about lost a tooth this year, but haven’t yet dealt with the issue, Floor Dental Group in Cupertino CA suggests a consultation with our dental implant team immediately.
Why the rush? Though your missing tooth might not be an aesthetic issue now – maybe it’s far enough back that the gap is not visible, or perhaps you don’t mind a sort of rugged look – it could very well become one in the future.
When we lose a tooth, the root and jaw bone eventually atrophy. This causes neighboring teeth to begin to shift into the empty spaces, causing misalignment and pain. Worse, it causes your facial features to take on a “sunken” look; especially round the cheeks.
Dental implants are the best way to avoid this, as they protect and stimulate the remaining teeth, keeping them in place and bolstering their strength. The good news is that dental implants and their associated restorations mimic natural enamel perfectly, so nobody will be able to tell that you’ve achieved your New Year’s resolution early this coming year!

Do you have a missing tooth that is detracting from your otherwise pleasant smile? At Floor Dental Group in Cupertino CA we can fill the gap with a dental bridge, and help you get back your sensational smile!
A dental bridge could be the perfect answer for your missing tooth. It not only restores your smile: it can help you chew and speak properly!
Implant-supported bridges are strong enough to replace a missing molar. In order to get one, you need to have natural teeth on each side of the gap left by the missing tooth. These teeth are prepared by removing their enamel so there is enough room for the crowns that are cemented on top of them. These two crowns support the artificial tooth.
We also offer traditional dental bridges, for patients who wants a less invasive, less involved process. These add structural integrity to your smile and easily replace missing teeth, without the need for the surgical process associated with their implant-supported counterparts. They are also more affordable!
A dental bridge is just one of the tooth replacement options available at Floor Dental Group in Cupertino CA. People from Saratoga, Campbell, and Sunnyvale also come to our practice for other restorative dentistry options. Contact us today!
Dental implants from Floor Dental Group in Cupertino CA support teeth so lifelike, patients have been known to forget some of their teeth aren’t real. That’s now natural their look and function is.
Those simple facts are enough to make most people choose dental implants if they need to replace one or more of their teeth. Then they learn that in addition to those benefits, implants can actually preserve and promote healthy bone mass in their jaws.
Dental Implants and Bone Loss
An unfortunate consequence of losing teeth is that the surrounding bone begins to atrophy. This begins almost immediately, and is usually noticeable within a year or so. The person’s face takes on a shrunken or sagging appearance. The more teeth that are missing, the more pronounced it is.
This happens because of the missing tooth root. But because dental implants are physically attached to the jaw, they mimic the root. The natural biting and chewing motions stimulate the bone and encourage new tissue to grow around the implant.
One dental implant can support one artificial tooth, and several can support a bridge, and even a full dental arch. At Floor Dental Group in Cupertino CA we have placed them in patients from Saratoga, Campbell, and Sunnyvale. They also come to us for other restorative dentistry options. Contact us today!
When an adult tooth is lost, it won’t grow back. But artificial teeth supported by dental implants from Floor Dental Group in Cupertino CA are a lifelike solution!
Dental implants are titanium posts that are placed in your jaw, where they fuse with the bone. They can support artificial teeth that look and function like the real thing. One implant can support one artificial tooth, while several can support a full dental arch.
Benefits
Supporting lifelike replacement teeth are one of the biggest benefits of dental implants. Your ability to bite and chew is virtually normal. And that’s to say nothing of your restored smile!
But implants do even more. When a tooth is lost, the bone around it begins to deteriorate. In time, that results in a sunken appearance in the face. Dental implants help to prevent that loss of bone mass.
Having an implant inserted into your jaw bone is, strictly speaking, a surgical procedure. Most patients breeze through it and are able to resume their usual activities by the next day. Post-procedure discomfort is usually mild and can be controlled with over-the-counter pain medication.
