Where Every Case Begins

At Grand Central Cosmetic Dentistry, every cosmetic case begins with a complimentary PreNew PreView; a proprietary method that allows you to see your new smile in your mouth before you move forward with treatment.

An impression of your current smile is taken and used to cast a model of your teeth. Our master ceramist then sculpts your new smile directly onto the model in wax. A mold of the new design is filled with a temporary material and placed over your own teeth.

When the mold is lifted, what remains is a hyperrealistic preview of what your new teeth will look like, in your own mouth, with your own smile. The material comes off before you leave, but we’ll send you home with before-and-after photographs. If you decide to move forward, the design will act as a close blueprint for your perfect smile.

The Whole Smile

A complete result is in the small details, which is why we go tooth by tooth, meticulously crafting a smile, one detail at a time.

Made of thin porcelain, our veneers are shaped and finished by our master ceramist to beautifully complement your features and match the depth of your natural enamel. The result: a smile that looks and feels like you. Our signature PreNew PreView gives you a complimentary look at your new smile before treatment begins.

Sometimes a smile needs more than one treatment to achieve a result that’s polished and complete. A smile makeover brings a combination of veneers, crowns, implants, and whitening together under one cohesive plan, where we carefully sequence treatment in the order it needs to happen. Before we begin, we’ll make sure you truly understand every step.

As we age, our front teeth wear down and our upper lip lengthens, so more of our smile is covered. The smile lift is a set of veneers designed to fill out the arch of your smile and give your lip the support that it needs. It’s a way to bring back the proportions of a younger smile without injections or surgery. Before anything is drilled or bonded, you’ll receive a complimentary PreNew PreView, so you can see how your face will change with the smile lift.

Teeth stain. Everyday activities, from the foods we eat to the things we drink to how we take care of our teeth, can cause discoloration. Whitening offers a simple way to bring light back into your smile when your teeth have dulled or yellowed. We perform the service in the office in a single visit, with the shade discussed with you before we begin.

Individual Teeth

Individual teeth get the same ceramist and standard of care as a full smile.

Cosmetic bonding is perfect for small repairs on otherwise healthy teeth. It’s a simple fix, using a tooth-colored resin that is shaped directly on your tooth and then polished to match the neighboring teeth.

A crown is a custom-fitted porcelain cap used to protect a damaged tooth. When a tooth doesn’t require the full coverage provided by a crown, inlays or onlays can be used to rebuild the damaged part, while leaving the rest of the tooth alone. Each crown, inlay and onlay is made by the same master ceramist who makes our veneers, and is crafted with care to blend into the teeth around it.

When a tooth is missing, a dental implant is a stable way to fill the space. The implant is placed in the jawbone where the root of the tooth once was, by a visiting surgeon here in our office. Once it heals, Dr. Kim designs the crown that attaches to the implant. He and our master ceramist match the color and shape of the crown to naturally fit in with the rest of your smile.

When you’re missing a tooth but a dental implant isn’t the right choice, a bridge can be an effective option. A tooth is custom crafted to fill the space and supported by the neighboring teeth.

Everyday Care

Before it was called Grand Central Cosmetic Dentistry, the practice was a general practice, caring for patients for more than 25 years. This care hasn’t changed. Dr. Seung-Hee Rhee, Dr. Juhee Suh, and Dr. Daniel W. Chow are all dedicated to making sure your smile stays healthy for years to come.

Cleanings and Exams

Routine cleanings and exams allow us to catch issues early and make sure your oral hygiene stays on track.

Fillings

Fillings provide an effective way to treat tooth decay and prevent it from worsening.

Root Canals

When a tooth is infected or painful, a root canal can save it, avoiding removal.

Gum Treatment

Discomfort, bleeding, or recession of your gums can all be signs of bigger problems that we can diagnose and treat.

Night Guards

Through a custom design process, we make properly fitting night guards to protect your teeth and veneers from grinding while you sleep.

Emergencies

If you have a dental emergency, give us a call and we’ll try our best to fit you in as soon as possible.

Book a Consultation

Tell us what you like about your smile, and what you’d like changed. Every cosmetic consultation includes our signature smile preview, so you can see the design in your mouth before treatment begins.
