​For about 22 years, Monica Boniadi, DDS, has provided dental services to patients at her private practice in Orange County, California. As a cosmetic dentist, Dr. Monica Boniadi offers a number of restorative procedures, including dental crowns.

Porcelain crowns are a wonderful way of restoring damaged teeth and getting back a great-looking smile. When patients get a crown for the first time, they typically wonder if crowns require any special care. In general, caring for a crown is the same as caring for a normal tooth. Everyday brushing and flossing of the crown, just like a tooth, are the best way to prevent bacteria from causing problems around the crowned tooth's root. Regular dental checkups are recommended as well, at least once every six months.

Avoid using the crowned tooth (or any natural teeth, for that matter) when trying to open things. The resulting pressure, over the long term, can cause damage to the crown. Likewise, do not bite fingernails, or chew ice or hard candy. The goal is to keep as much pressure off the crown as possible to ensure it remains seated properly and structurally sound.for more information, or to schedule an appointment please call (949)448-7500.

-Coyote Run. This 1.2-mile trail is mostly flat, except for a few short slopes that some cyclists choose to hike over. Cyclists should use caution, as the trail has some tight turns with riders circulating in both directions.

-Meadows Trail. A 1.7-mile trail, Meadows Trail takes riders down a steep hill loaded with curves before they reach the bottom, flat part of the trail.

-West Ridge Trail. This 2.5-mile double-track trail has a steep hill at the north end, and features beautiful views of the ocean, especially from the end of the trail, which cyclists have named the Top of the World.

​With more than two decades of experience in her chosen field, Monica Boniadi, DDS, owns and operates a dental practice in Laguna Hills, California. At her practice, Dr. Monica Boniadi offers a number of procedures, including Invisalign braces.

There are a number of factors to consider when selecting what type of braces to use to straighten one’s smile. Affordability, effectiveness, and looks all factor into the decision. When comparing options, however, Invisalign braces offer noteworthy benefits.

Compared to metal braces, Invisalign offers are more appealing looking - in fact, they are mostly unnoticeable. This makes them a better choice for those who are concerned about appearances and want to avoid the look of metal braces.

Additionally, Invisalign braces are more comfortable than traditional braces. This is because they are not permanently affixed to the teeth. Rather, they can be removed during meals or when drinking beverages.

For more information or to schedule an appointment, please contact our office (949)448-7500 

Finally, Invisalign braces are markedly safer for the surrounding tooth and gum tissue than traditional metal braces are. Invisalign braces are smooth and made of a much gentler material. This means that the gums won’t be as susceptible to puncture or other injuries.

Dr. Monica Boniadi graduated from University of California, Los Angeles with her DDS and has been practicing dentistry in the state for more than two decades. An award-winning professional, Monica Boniadi, DDS, is the owner and dentist at the Laser & Cosmetic Dental Institute of Orange County and provides such services as porcelain fillings, root canals, and treatment for gum diseases such as gingivitis and periodontitis.

Gum disease is a serious ailment that can result in the loss of bone around the teeth and, if untreated, the loss of the teeth themselves. There are two main types of gum disease: gingivitis and periodontitis. Gingivitis is the most mild form of gum disease. It occurs when tartar and plaque are left on the teeth for too long due to poor oral hygiene. Bacteria from the tartar and plaque cause the gums to become red and swollen and prone to bleeding. Generally less severe, gingivitis does not cause any tissue or bone loss and it can be treated with regular brushing, flossing, and cleanings at the dentist.

Periodontitis is more serious and is occurs when gingivitis is left untreated. Over time, the plaque grows below the gum line, and the body begins breaking down tissue and bone around the teeth in as a part of its natural chronic inflammatory response to the toxins. The gums begin pulling away from the teeth, leaving open spaces that often become infected; if untreated, teeth normally must be removed. ​

Monica Boniadi, DDS, currently practices at Aliso Laguna Family Dental Care in Laguna Hills, California. A member of the American Dental Association and the California Dental Association, Dr. Monica Boniadi offers a wide range of laser, general and cosmetic dentistry procedures. 

A smile is often the key to a person's confidence, and periodontal procedures offer the opportunity to make that smile as attractive as possible. These procedures can address problems such as tooth loss, sensitive or overexposed root surfaces, and receding gum lines.

Periodontal plastic surgery is sometimes the only option to correct gum irregularities. Crown lengthening is one procedure that corrects an uneven gum line or a smile that reveals too much of the gums. In this procedure, extra tooth and gum tissue are reshaped to reveal more of the natural tooth. Gum graft surgery is another effective way to make teeth look longer by covering exposed roots. This procedure can reduce gum recession and prevent further decay and tooth loss.

When a tooth is lost, bone grafting surgery can help remove the unsightly indentation that often remains in the tooth or jawbone. This prepares the area for a more natural-looking tooth replacement.
