FAQs

Have questions? Find answers here.

Is laser dentistry painful?

One of the significant advantages of laser dentistry is the minimal discomfort experienced during treatments. Most patients report little to no pain during laser procedures, as the technology is designed to be gentle and precise. Any discomfort is typically well-managed with local anesthesia or other comfort measures. Compared to traditional dental methods, laser dentistry often results in less post-treatment soreness and faster healing times.

Are laser procedures covered by insurance?

Insurance coverage for laser dentistry treatments varies depending on your specific insurance plan and the type of procedure. Some dental insurance plans may cover laser treatments, while others may consider them elective or cosmetic procedures. It's best to contact your insurance provider directly to understand your coverage and any out-of-pocket costs. Our team can also help you navigate your insurance benefits and explore financing options to make your laser dentistry treatment more accessible.

How long does healing take after laser treatments?

Healing times after laser dentistry treatments vary depending on the specific procedure and individual factors. However, most patients experience faster healing compared to traditional dental methods. The precision of laser technology minimizes damage to surrounding tissues, which often leads to quicker recovery. Many patients can return to normal activities within a few days of treatment. Your dental team will provide specific guidance on what to expect during your healing process.

What makes laser dentistry different from traditional methods?

Laser dentistry offers several key advantages over traditional dental methods:

  • Precision: Lasers allow for incredibly precise treatments, minimizing damage to surrounding tissues.
  • Comfort: Most patients experience less discomfort during laser procedures compared to traditional methods.
  • Faster healing: The targeted nature of laser treatments often results in quicker recovery times.
  • Reduced need for anesthesia: In some cases, laser dentistry may require less anesthesia than traditional methods.
  • Versatility: Lasers can be used for a wide range of dental treatments, from gum contouring to cavity removal.

Patient Testimonials

You say it best.

Thank you, staff of the Peninsula Center of Cosmetic Dentistry for making my cosmetic dentistry experience outstanding. Before visiting, I was self conscious of my teeth and hardly smiled at new people or in pictures. Now I have a brilliant smile and my self confidence has been boosted! I would recommend the Peninsula Center of Cosmetic Dentistry to anyone.

Excellent and professional care for replacement of two crowns by Dr. Van and his able assistant, Lo. Clear explanations as he proceeded, Dr. Van's manner was warm, reassuring and expert. I am squeamish about dental care, and they made me feel so safe, calm and reassured.  I am happy to recommend the entire office.

Phenomenal experience. I look for a dentist who not only has experience but the highest quality of skill and care. It’s not just about quality, though, I also look for someone who has an excellent reputation. Doctors who have the skill-set as well as attention to detail. It is important to me to have  the ability to understand my needs and desired outcome. I really do appreciate Dr. Field being a premier leader in cosmetic dentistry. Impressive.

I can’t wait to see the models of my teeth not to mention, my new smile! I even brought my kid with me, too! Now that is incredible!  Thank you!

I came to PCCD after doing extensive research online. I had old crowns on my front teeth, old amalgam fillings on my molars that have been worn down. I was also never comfortable with my smile. I’ve always had a dental phobia since childhood and have avoided seeing a dentist… They listened to all my concerns and issues. They presented different options and reviewed them with me. I ended up doing a full mouth reconstruction and I am very happy with the results. It was the best decision I ever made.

As a new patient, I can say the whole team was super friendly! When you walk in the door, you immediately feel welcomed. The whole staff were all nice and helpful. Dr. Pham did a good job to make sure you felt comfortable and that you left without any questions. Definitely recommend!

Face it, nobody likes going to the dentist. I get that. But I actually look forward to my dentist visits because of the people! Everyone here is so nice and non-judgmental it's been my pleasure to go here for going on 5 years now! They also know what they're doing, which hasn't been my experience in the past. I am consistently confident that they will take care of my mouth when I go here!

I had my first visit with Dr. Indah at Dental Arts of Mountain View today. It was for a TMJ consult. It was by far and away one of the most thorough exams and consultation I've ever had. Amayra, her assistant, was professional, kind and a very warm person. Dr. Indah was also very professional, informative and kind. I am very happy with this office and my first visit was excellent!

Because I am on camera everyday, my smile is so important. PCCD’s dentists and wonderful staff made it beautiful, white and healthy. And the best part – no pain and no anxiety. Going to PCCD was a pleasant experience. Did you ever think you would hear that about going to a dentist? I would recommend PCCD to anyone.

Such a lovely place for me and my teeth! The staff is always so friendly and welcoming, they always remember me and ask about my family, the whole facility is immaculate, and while they recommend options they never try to push extra services on me. The cost is competitive for Silicon Valley and they accept insurance and flex spending accounts so I waltz right out the door with no hassle! Happy teeth and BEE!

I have never liked the look of my teeth. The spaces between my teeth have always bothered me. I found PCCD while doing research on the internet and went to him to find out what my options were. He gave me new porcelain veneers and closed the spaces between my teeth. Now, I feel more confident about my smile.

In a word.... AWESOME! I lost a front crown the night before calling Dental Arts of Mountain View. The next day, only hours later, I had a new crown! Dr. Oh and his staff, Susie, Haley, Margorie and Beatrice were truly amazing. The lobby and offices are gorgeous and provides a tranquil environment with massage chairs during procedures. Yes, this dental office is second to none. I did extensive research by googling the "best cosmetic and general dentistry." Dental Arts was at the top of the list. A well deserved reputation that I drove an hour and half to confirm.  The cost was unbelievable affordable.  Great value and results that left a very big Smile on my face! Thank you very much Dental Arts you are the BEST!

I had a great experience having work done on my teeth! The staff was super friendly and scheduling was a breeze. Dr. Pham took his time making sure that I was completely comfortable throughout the procedure. The folks in the office were very thoughtful making me feel well taken care of.
