Invisalign®
What is Invisalign®
Invisalign® is the process of gradually moving your teeth through a series of custom-made, removable, nearly invisible Aligners. No metal, no brackets, no fuss! They are removable, so you can brush and floss normally to maintain maximum dental health. There are no diet restrictions, you can still eat and drink what you want.
Invisalign is the clear way to straighter teeth and a beautiful smile!
Straighter Teeth....Healthier Gums
Invisalign is not just an option for a cosmetic result. Properly positioned teeth are easier to brush and floss than teeth that are crowded, crooked, or spaced too far apart. Properly aligned teeth can help gums "fit" tighter around them, which leads to periodontal health.

SAPPHIRE One Hour Smile Whitening Program How can teeth be whitened?
No two smiles are alike. Although we generally think of teeth as being white, there are many natural shades of tooth enamel that range from bright white and bluish-gray to yellow. Genetics play a role in the color of a person's teeth and how quickly tooth enamel may discolor.
Teeth may become discolored or stained as a result of genetics, medications, aging, smoking, accidents, certain foods and beverages or a combination of these.
Teeth whitening procedures use a peroxide gel alone or in combination with a light source to help remove most staining agents that become imbedded in the tooth surface.
Dr. Alouf can evaluate your teeth and help you decide if any of our whitening procedures are right for you.
Biolase® Waterlase Dental Laser Services What is Waterlase Dentistry?
Waterlase Dentistry is the use of laser energy, combined with a spray of water to perform a variety of dental procedures more comfortably. It can be used for cutting teeth, bone and gum tissue and can also do things that can't be accomplished with traditional dental tools such as the drill and scalpel.
Dr. Alouf has incorporated the use of the dental laser into every aspect of his dental practice. Striving to stay on the cutting edge of technology, our dental laser is used to improve the outcome and shorten healing time of many procedures such as, dental fillings, root canal therapy, treatment of advanced periodontal disease, and dental surgical procedures. In some cases the need for dental anesthesia (injections) is minimal or absent.
When visiting our office we will determine if dental laser procedures are right for you. Remember, our mission is to provide state of the art, quality dentistry, in a comfortable and caring environment!
Cerec® One Appointment Ceramic Crowns and Inays What are CerecŪ Single Visit Restorations?
View the New Cerec Commercial By Dr. Stephen Alouf >>
CerecŪ is a superior method of creating precisely designed, color matched, and highly durable ceramic restorations right in our office. CerecŪ delivers the results you need in a single appointment. The technology of the CerecŪ system allows us to design every precise detail of your restoration (crown or inlay) with the accuracy you expect of us.
After examining the tooth and determining the course of treatment, we will prepare your tooth for restoration, similarly to traditional methods. Your prepared tooth will be coated with a safe, tastless powder. CerecŪ then uses a state-of-the-art digital 3D camera to create an optical impression. This digital image replaces the physical impression required in traditional procesures.
Your inlay or crown is then milled in our office while you wait, and you leave with your finished restoration. This eliminates the need for two-three weeks of laboratory time and the fabrication of a temporary crown or inlay during that interim period.
Alouf Aesthetics realizes that your time is very important in today's world. We have invested in this technology to provide you with state of the art dental restorations while being conscious of your time.
Advanced Periodontal Therapy Program What is Periodontal Therapy?
Why all the fuss about periodontal - gum - disease? Why all the lectures at your continuing care appointments? For a good reason!
We are concerned not only about your dental health but also your overall health. Periodontal disease is a progressive one, if it doesn't stabilize or show signs of healing, (no bleeding present); it is bound to get worse. Even when your gums don't hurt, untreated gum disease will eventually result in tooth loss.
As mentioned before, we are concerned not only about your dental health but your overall health. The new research is telling us how periodontits is being linked to systemic problems. Many of the bacteria and poisons found in periodontal disease are also found in systemic diseases. These systemic links consist of heart disease, diabetes, respiratory disease, pre-term low birth weight in babies, osteoporosis, and Alzheimer's. Periodontal disease has also been shown to have a strong hereditary factor.
But there is a bright side. Every day, dental science is finding new ways to solve the problem. Our office has helped many patients save their teeth and bring their gum tissue back to health and vitality. We accomplish this through Periodontal Therapy. Our new cutting edge approach to treatment is the latest technology available in periodontal therapy. We accomplish this through a series of repetitive antibacterial therapy appointments and extensive home care education. Your progress through this program is monitored extensively and modified to fit your individual needs. Our dental hygienists are actually periodontal therapists who have undergone extensive continuing education in this field. They are committed to your overall health.
At Alouf Aesthetics we are concerned about your overll health and that is why we make such a fuss with our patient's periodontal health. Remember, periodontal therapy is a non-surgical approach and the first step towards controlling your periodontal disease.
 Oral Conscious Sedation Dentistry 
This is a technique used for fearful and/or busy patients who would like to have all their dental work completed in as few appointments as possible, while in a deep relaxed state.
If you have not been to the dentist due to fear of pain or a busy schedule, then conscious sedation may be a good option for you. With conscious sedation, most of your dental problems can be taken care of in just a few appointments, while you are in a deep relaxed state. Most patients who have dental work done using conscious sedation do not recall the experience. Conscious sedation can put even the most fearful patient at ease during their dental appointment.
How does oral conscious sedation work?
One hour before your dental procedure you take an oral sedative
A friend or family member drives you to our office
The doctor monitors your state of sedation and more sedative is given if necessary
Your dental work is then completed while you rest comfortably
A friend or family member drives you home
Who qualifies for conscious sedation?
Patients 12 years or older
Patients in good general health
What dental procedure can be done using conscious sedation?
Nearly all routine dental work
Periodontal Therapy
Placement of dental implants
Crowns & Bridges
Extractions

3-D Imaging Craniofacial Data Cone Beam CT is a new 3-D imaging technology that allow a dentist to fully evaluate the anatomical positions of teeth and bone. An imaging machine spends about 20 seconds revolving around the patient's head and acquires enormous amounts of data.
This imaging data allows the dentist to evaluate the exact position of impacted teeth, the position of third molars and their relationship to the alvelor nerves or the maxillary sinus. It is the ultimate diagnostic tool for implant dentistry. It clearly defines the bony achitecture and density of the jaw bone can be visualized and measured.
Start to Finish Dental Implants What is a Dental Implant?
A dental implant is a small "anchor" made of titanium. It is inserted into the jawbone to take the place of your missing tooth root. After osseointegration, or when the surrounding bone has attached to the implant, a replacedment tooth is secured to the top of the implant. the new tooth looks, feels, and performs just like your natural tooth. The implant can also be used to support a bridge or denture.
More healthful and beautiful: When teeth are missing, the surrounding bone begins to shrink. This unhealthy bone loss can make your jawline recede. Dental implants can help prevent this deterioration, so your face retains its natural shape. As an alternative to bridgework, dental implants eliminate the need to grind down healthy teeth when replacing one or more adjacent teeth.
More comfortable: Because dental implants are securely anchored, there is no slipping or movement as there is with dentures. This reduces some of the key worries of dentures including poor fit, gum irritation, and pain from exposed nerves.

All-on-4 Dental Implant System Alouf Aesthetic & Implant Dentistry is proud to announce the arrival of the All-on-4 Dental implant system to our clinic. Dr. Alouf and his dental surgical team have completed their specialized training and education in this state-of-the-art implant surgery.
What is All-on-4?
Four specially designed implants are placed strategically in either the upper or lower arch that will support a fixed prosthesis (teeth) on the implants. This concept began in the late 1990's as a way to efficiently use implants in the jawbone, elimate the need for bone grafting, and utilize a fixed prosthesis immediately. Through committment of research and development, All-on-4 was born. This procedure has been proven to be reliably successful in restoring a full arch of teeth in just one visit.
Advantages of All-on-4?
- No more taking dentures in and out.
- Extremely comfortable and natural looking.
- No need for messy adhesives and creams.
- No more costly relines.
- Homecare is easy with our "Take Home All-on-4 Care Kit".
- Surgical procedure is minimally invasive and everything is completed right in our office.
- Recovery time is brief!
- Patient's ability to chew and speak dramatically improve!
Am I a candidate?
Very few people, that require full arch replacement teeth, are not candidates for the All-on-4 Dental Implant system. Every patient will be fully evaluated during the consultation phase of treatment. Personalized treatment planning with our advanced diagnostics allows us to determine the most appropriate plan of care for each individual.
Alouf Aesthetic & Implant Dentistry requires all candidates to be stable medically before entering into implant treatment. In some cases, this program is not the right treatment approach for people who have suffered extreme bone loss, which is determined at consultation.
Want to know more about the All-on-4 or find out if it is the right choice for you? Call today for your Complimentary Consultation!
