Dental Examination
“The ADA recommends that if you choose to use a bleaching product, you should only do so after consultation with a dentist. This is especially important for patients with many fillings, crowns, and extremely dark stains. A thorough oral examination, performed by a licensed dentist, is essential to determine if bleaching is an appropriate course of treatment. The dentist and patient together can determine the most appropriate treatment. The dentist may then advise the patient and supervise the use of bleaching agents within the context of a comprehensive, appropriately sequenced treatment plan … Patients should be cautioned that not enough information is available to support unsupervised long-term and/or repeated use of bleaching products.”

X-rays
2. Objective History. Medical and dental records, where available, are viewed. Relevant medical conditions are identified and physician consultation may be initiated, when appropriate. Previous dental x-rays or records are reviewed. Patient’s health form is thoroughly examined and follow-up questions are asked. Patient’s concerns regarding pain are addressed, especially regarding anesthetics and possible desire for oral, nitrous or IV sedation. History and reaction to anesthetics are reviewed

Teeth Cleaning
A USC study of 10,000 people showed twins with AD four times more likely to have periodontal disease in middle age, and a 7 year study of 100,000 found the dental cleanings reduced stroke risk by 13%.

Veneers
Is it a decision to smile makeover which you think about but you are not quite ready to put the cud for veneers? In Test Drive Veneers in Alhambra, CA one can have an opportunity to try a new smile on before deciding to opt for it permanently. This concept of aesthetic treatment is rapidly altering the paradigm of smile makeover. Now let us see what veneer test drive is in essence and why Alhambra is on the brink of becoming the next venue for this vibrant aspect of dental care.
Crowns
What does the “inside” of a tooth consist of? Inside the tooth is a soft tissue called the pulp. The pulp consists of blood vessels, nerves and connective tissue. It is surrounded by a hard layer called dentin. Overlying the dentin is the white enamel, which forms the crown of the tooth. The crown is supported by the root(s)
Bridges
Yes. There are a large number of types of implants. They are selected by the implant dentist based on many factors, among which are the needs and desire of the patient, the location and condition of the implant site(s), the bite relationship between upper and lower teeth, the general condition of the teeth and gums, medical health and many other factors. But for the sake of simplicity and practicality, all the implants may be grouped into two general categories. The first is the most common and is described in Question 2. It has two parts: body and abutment. The body is placed into the bone and allowed to “osteointegrate” for generally three months. Then the abutment is attached to the body of the implant. A crown or a fixed prosthesis (e.g., fixed bridge) is placed on the implant. This crown or prosthesis is fixed and only be removed by the dentist, not the patient. In this category of implants there are literally thousands belonging to various brands, design, sizes and shapes, along with even more accessory parts. Depending on a particular situation the dentist can choose what is most appropriate for the patient.
Dental Bonding
For gapped front teeth, bonding is generally the initial consideration. Cosmetic bonding calls for the dentist to incrementally build up spaces between the teeth with various shades of composite materials and then “paint” surfaces with additional composites of different hues, chroma and translucency to match the adjacent teeth. Techniques employing “optical illusion” in shaping the composites give the teeth the appearance of normal-sized teeth, without the gaps. This can be done without reducing the teeth. With some precautions and proper care cosmetic bonding can last many years without chipping or breakage.

Root Canal Treatment
Root canals are famous for causing pain. How can I avoid the pain of having root canal treatment?

Deep Cleaning

Dentures
Immediate Denture Implants consist of a miniature titanium implant that acts like the root of your tooth and a retaining fixture that is incorporated into the base of your denture. The head of the implant is shaped like a ball, and the retaining fixture (housing) acts like a socket that contains a rubber O-ring. The O-ring of the housing snaps over the ball when the denture is seated and holds the denture at a predetermined level of force. When seated, the denture gently rests on the gum tissue. The implant fixtures allow for micro-mobility while withstanding natural lifting forces.

Dental Implants
Between 1939 and 1950’s other kinds of implants were developed and used with varying degrees of success. In 1952 Dr. Ingvar Branemark, an orthopedic surgeon, discovered that titanium cylinders implanted into rabbits fused to the bone. He named this phenomenon “osteointegration,” currently a well-accepted principle in dental implantology. Dr. Branemark then began research into using titanium screws as bone anchors in human beings and accumulated credible data that was not embraced by the scientific community, until 1982. That year the Toronto Conference on Osseointegration in Clinical Dentistry laid down the first parameters of implant treatment. This Conference led to the acceptance of Dr. Branemark’s concept of osteointegration into the dental profession and ushered in the new era of dental implantology.

Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery

Oral Surgery
Gum Surgery
Arthroscopic surgery is a minimally invasive surgical procedure in which treatment of damage of the interior of a joint is performed using an arthroscope, a type of miniature fiber optic camera inserted into the joint through a small incision. A new technology employing a dental fiber optic camera, called a “perioscope,” is now being used non- surgically to treat gum disease. The advantage of the “perioscopic system” is that it provides real-time visualization of bacterial deposits (plaque) underneath the gums, enhanced by intense illumination and 24-48x magnification. In contrast, the traditional method of “deep cleaning” involves removal of plaque without visualization and only by “feel.” Perioscopic technology allows the dentist to see and fully and consistently remove plaque, the main culprit in gum disease. In a vast majority of cases gum surgery can be avoided using perioscopic therapy. Where surgery is necessary, perioscopic surgery has been shown by studies to be just as effective as the traditional approach.
Tooth Extractions
Bone Grafting
Anatomic problems such as lack of volume and density of bone may be an obstacle. However bone grafting procedures can resolve these problems and should be part of the preliminary evaluation.

Orthodontics
For crooked teeth, orthodontics is always a good alternative. Where bands and braces are impractical, veneering can bring changes in a matter of weeks. Transparent plastic “retainers” to move teeth also may be an alternative in some cases.
Braces
Chelsea is a patient of Pinhole Gum Rejuvenation®, noticed her gum recession after years of using braces. She comes to Dr. Chao’s office in Alhambra, CA to fix her issue. Dr. Chao does the Pinhole Gum Rejuvenation® procedure and Chelsea’s life changes for the best!

Teeth Whitening
In office whitening is highly predictable and safer than any self-administered kits. Even the most difficult, “hopeless” cases of dark, stained teeth are successfully treated at our office. We can make your teeth up to seven shades brighter in only thirty minutes or up to twelve shades brighter in one hour. There are many ways to whiten teeth. Easily available are over-the-counter products. While some are easier to use than others, home bleaching products take time. The results are not as predictable as whitening at our dental office. If the results of home bleach are not satisfactory, consider an in office whitening procedure. The following are some examples of before and after in office whitening cases.
Cosmetic Dentistry
General Dentistry
Dr. Chao’s extensive and in-depth knowledge of every specialty allows him to diagnose your condition accurately and often offers you unique solutions that you would not easily find anywhere else. (See Special Qualifications below). His induction as a Master of the Academy of General Dentistry is just one example of the many awards and accreditations Dr. Chao has received over the years. He has a widespread reputation as a lecturer and teacher both to undergraduate and postgraduate students. (See Professional Associations and Lectures below).
