San Diego Cosmetic Dentist

A lot of my patients ask me what LVI is and why it's important to my cosmetic dentistry practice.

LVI, the Las Vegas Institute for Advanced Dental Studies, is the world's premiere center for neuromuscular and cosmetic dentistry practices. LVI is where dentists all over the world study the latest in new techniques and technologies for creating beautiful, healthy smiles.

LVI training emphasizes a holistic approach to dentistry, in which the principles of cosmetic and neuromuscular dentistry are applied to every dental procedure and every consultation.

This can be especially important in cosmetic dentistry, as the field is growing and advancing rapidly, with new materials and techniques coming onto the market regularly. A cosmetic dentist who has studied at LVI is more familiar with these advances, and is better able to evaluate their efficacy and suitability for his or her patients.

LVI's emphasis on neuromuscular dentistry is an important factor for cosmetic dentistry as well. A trained neuromuscular dentist has the knowledge and experience to create a smile that is not only beautiful, but also well balanced and healthy.

Many cases of temporomandibular joint disorder (TMD) develop from poor dental work, including ill-fitting dental appliances, such as bridges, dental crowns, or porcelain veneers that cause the bite to become misaligned, leading to stress on the jaw and often serious consequences in terms of dental health and general physical health as well.

LVI training ensures that the dentist you choose for your cosmetic work has the experience and knowledge to offer you the very best that modern dentistry has to offer, and provide you with the healthy, beautiful smile you deserve.
