Teeth whitening is a popular cosmetic dentistry procedure in San Diego and throughout California.
Numerous ads for whitening products in our local San Diego media contain terms such as ‘white brite’, ’22 carbamide peroxide’ and ‘peroxide teeth’. They look tempting, but how do you separate tooth bleaching fact from fiction?
First, and especially for our local San Diego California patients, we recommend talking to Dr. Marcos Ortega DDS at Marcos Ortega DDS at our San Diego office. Just because teeth whitening products are readily available, it doesn’t mean they are all safe or appropriate for every person. Getting a professional opinion is a good first step.
Don’t be fooled by smile whitening hype and risk damage, especially if you need tetracycline teeth whitening. If you have existing cosmetic dental work such as crowns, bonding, partial dentures or bridge work, it is especially important to talk to a San Diego dental professional about worry free dentistry teeth whitening.
Teeth whitening kits are not the only way to quickly improve your smile. Many of your neighbors have benefited from porcelain veneers. There are several brands of veneers such as Lumineers by Cerinate, da Vinci and Mac. We can help you decide on which is best for you.
Veneers are sometimes called ‘instant orthodontics’ because they can correct tooth misalignment and gaps as well as provide instant teeth whitening.
Porcelain veneers can also fix chipped teeth and cover stains. The vast majority of San Diego veneer recipients are extremely pleased with the results.
Providing comprehensive dental care for San Diego families since 1986.

At Marcos Ortega DDS in San Diego, we are excited about new light tooth whitening systems. If you are worried about tooth whitening sensitivity, light whitening systems may provide a great solution. It is important to avoid at-home whitening smile products if you are concerned about tooth whitening sensitivity. We recommend administering whitening bleach in a tightly controlled, professional environment such as our dental office in San Diego California.
Don’t take chances with something as important as your teeth.
Orthodontia patients will appreciate the range of choices now available in braces, too. Speed braces bring teeth into alignment quicker than any previous teeth straightening systems used in San Diego.

Most San Diego residents have plenty of things to smile about.
However, there are some folks who avoid smiling at all costs. Are you one of those people who cover their mouth when they laugh? Do you keep your mouth closed when someone takes a picture of you? Have you been hiding unsightly teeth for years?
It’s time to take care of those tooth problems and get a new lease on life.
Dr. Marcos Ortega at Marcos Ortega DDS in San Diego can make it happen!
If you are missing one or more teeth, and live in the San Diego area, talk to us about dental implants. A dental implant is a permanent tooth replacement that includes both root and crown. Because it is anchored into the jawbone, it looks and feels like a natural tooth.
Are your teeth yellow or gray? Have your teeth whitened at our San Diego dental practice and experience an instant transformation.
Many of your friends and neighbors have benefited from porcelain veneers. They correct several types of imperfections and can be applied in just one visit to our dental office.

San Diego cosmetic dentistry is part science and part art.
I’m Dr. Marcos Ortega of Marcos Ortega DDS and enjoy using my extensive dental training and specialized artistic skills to design treatment plans unique to each of my San Diego cosmetic dental clients.
In order to achieve an attractive, yet natural looking result, I do much more than recommend specific procedures. I consider the shape, alignment, color and condition of the teeth. In order to create a balanced look, the facial shape and coloring is taken into account. The San Diego dentistry client’s age, health condition and lifestyle all influence the plan.
At Marcos Ortega DDS, there is no one size fits all treatment plan.
My artistic abilities have been perfected over several years of creating smile transformations for my cosmetic dentistry clients. I am constantly receiving the latest training in new techniques and materials.
Even fairly recent cosmetic dental procedures such as teeth whitening and porcelain veneers have advanced considerably. Dental implants are a truly remarkable solution for our California dental clients who have lost one or more teeth.
I would love to design a personalized smile makeover for you. When the work has been completed and you are enjoying your new look, it will only be obvious to those who see you all the time. Others will assume you have always been blessed with a naturally beautiful and healthy smile.

Many San Diego cosmetic dentistry patients with a gummy smile undergo crown lengthening surgery to bring proper balance and symmetry to their smile. Gum tissue and, in some cases, bone is removed to expose more of the visible part of a tooth. It is a safe procedure that does not affect healthy tooth structure.
A ‘gummy smile’ is a term used to describe a smile with teeth that appear too short because an unusual amount of bone and soft tissue hide part of the crown. Our San Diego cosmetic dental patients who have opted for crown lengthening love how their new perfect smile looks and feels. Some of our crown lengthening clients also choose teeth whitening for an extra-dazzling smile!
Crown lengthening is not used solely for cosmetic reasons. When a tooth is injured and breaks at the gum line or if a filling or crown comes off a tooth that contains decay, crown lengthening makes additional tooth structure accessible for further restorative work. It is also used to treat some types of periodontal disease.
At Marcos Ortega DDS, we perform cosmetic and restorative crown lengthening for patients in the San Diego area. The surgery can be performed by a general dentist, periodontist or oral surgeon.
If you are interested in crown lengthening or other cosmetic dental procedures and live in the San Diego area, schedule an exam with Dr. Marcos Ortega by calling 619-295-4545. We are conveniently located at 306 Walnut Ave., Suite 25 in San Diego. When you come in, we can show you before and after photos of California cosmetic dentistry clients who are enjoying their new smile.

A cosmetic dental consultation is informative and enjoyable. As the patient, you’ll have the opportunity to describe your goals and expectations.

Cosmetic dentistry consultations help us provide the highest level of San Diego area dental care.

By listening effectively and asking the right questions, Dr. Marcos Ortega can fully assess the many variables unique to your needs.
Dr. Marcos Ortega thoroughly examines teeth, gums and biting function. Complete x-rays are taken. Existing dental work, tooth color, tooth alignment, and gum condition are taken into consideration. Medical history and lifestyle are also important factors. San Diego cosmetic dentistry costs are outlined.
Taking the first step by scheduling a cosmetic dental consultation is your key to understanding your options and preparing to make decisions. Learn about the possibilities for your smile at Marcos Ortega DDS; give us a call at 619-295-4545.

A great smile is essential for putting your best face forward. At Marcos Ortega DDS, we not only restore teeth to their original condition; we make many San Diego smiles better than they ever were before!
Some patients have only a few problems they wish to correct. Perhaps one or two teeth are misshapen and seem out of alignment. If the problem teeth are only superficially crooked—meaning they do not need to be moved into place with orthodontia—porcelain veneers are the answer. Veneers are wafer-thin porcelain shells that are attached to the front of one of more teeth. They are extremely versatile and can correct shape, color, or both.
Another plus: porcelain veneers are essentially non-invasive and do not affect healthy tooth structure.
Some of our California dental patients were happy with their smile in years past but now want to bring up the whiteness a notch or two. Teeth whitening is a popular procedure for our cosmetic dentistry clients. We provide a variety of teeth whitening options for every type of smile. If you are ready to brighten your smile, come on in; we’ll help you find the best tooth whitening system for your smile.

I’m Dr. Marcos Ortega of Marcos Ortega DDS. My office is located at 306 Walnut Ave., Suite 25 in San Diego. One of the best things about being a San Diego area dentist is interacting with my patients. During initial dental consultations, I listen carefully to my patient’s short and long term dental goals.
I enjoy discussing options and developing effective treatment plans tailored specifically to each person. Some of my clients desire a total smile makeover. I explain in detail the treatments available including teeth whitening, dental veneers, orthodontia, crown restoration, and dental implants.
If a client is nervous about undergoing treatment, we discuss oral conscious sedation. Oral conscious sedation, sometimes called oral sedation dentistry, is a great option for anxious patients. Dental visits do not have to be painful!
After the treatment has been completed, it is very gratifying for me to see my patient’s reaction to their new smile.
I never get tired of creating dramatic smile transformations for the best clients in California!
If you have been considering a smile makeover, let’s talk about your smile. Call Marcos Ortega DDS at 619-295-4545 to schedule a cosmetic dentistry consultation.
