No one wants a dingy smile. Sometimes teeth lack opalescence or have been stained by a venti-sized coffee and tea habit. Genetics may play a role, or medication can stain tooth color. Over-the-counter whitening strips or teeth bleaching kits may be all you need. Others soon realize professional teeth whitening is what they need. Dr. Muslin can set you straight about the pros and cons of zoom whitening, power swabs, KöR Whitening system’s hydremide peroxide formulation or other teeth whitener options.

Dr. Muslin uses the best dental bonding materials to suit each patient. He will explain the difference between tooth bonding and veneers and why composite fillings are less controversial than dark amalgam filling materials and when an outlay, crown or implant would serve the patient better. For broken or chipped teeth, dental bonding can improve your smile in as little as 45 minutes, all without drilling or shots. For dental bonding in Los Angeles, Beverly Hills or Santa Monica, Dr. Sam Muslin should be your dentist of choice.

Instant no-prep or minimal-prep veneers are ideal for enhancing teeth stained by tetracycline. Prepless porcelain veneers might be all you need to mask tooth etching from too much time in a heavily chlorinated pool or from swallowing too much fluoride toothpaste as a kid. Dr. Muslin can do a wide range of applications, but specializes in non-invasive, anti-aging VENLAY restorations. These are super-thin, specially bonded veneers that require no grinding of enamel. No nubs. No points. No pain. No fear. Nothing but awesome. Talk to him about why his approach is different!

Do you have black gum lines or need a root canal? Are your old teeth caps discolored? Do you still have a temporary crown that you never replaced? What’s the difference between zirconia crowns and porcelain crowns? Dr. Muslin will answer all your questions about capped teeth and the best high-tech dentistry options available on the market.

Let’s face it. Not everyone is born with a Hollywood smile. Maybe your teeth are in good health, but all your selfies seem to underscore a gummy smile. Should you undergo oral surgery to fix this? Perhaps you had a pair of temporary crowns put in by your last dentist and weren’t told cutting gums was part of the procedure. It hurt like heck! Now you’re afraid to go back to get them replaced – let alone discuss the benefits of crown lengthening. Or maybe your gums bleed. Does this mean you’ll have to visit a periodontist? Dr. Muslin is easy to talk to. He’ll give you the information you need to make an informed decision. He hates invasive medical procedures if they can be avoided. If you ever wanted a dentistry advocate, he’s your man.

Patients’ needs vary greatly. Some will require tooth extraction and extensive gum work. Others may need bone grafting to prepare for implants to replace missing teeth. For those hesitant about undergoing implant surgery, Dr. Muslin provides traditional bridge work, as well as cantilever bridges, bonded bridges and Maryland bridges – all part of his high-tech dentistry arsenal and high-precision dental bonding technique.

In the past, patients who suffered tooth loss from an accident or through disease had to endure the loss or adapt to wearing an artificial tooth or dentures. Medical advances have made osseointegration possible, where the jaw is strengthened through bone grafts, allowing for dental implant surgery. Periodontists can treat periodontal diseases with gum surgery, a course of antibiotics and even gum grafts. Once the mouth is healthy and the tooth implant post is healed, permanent tooth placement can be made – a real back-to-the-future mashup.

Dr. Muslin is like a master sculptor – able to assess his patients’ teeth and facial features and then execute an artistic modification that is aesthetically pleasing as well as mechanically sound. A sophisticated office equipped with the latest in high-tech tools fast tracks treatment. Staff members are trained to protect the comfort and privacy of each patient, making each office visit as stress-free as possible.

Dr. Muslin uses a high level of precision to provide inlays and onlays that will blend seamlessly with the rest of the mouth. An “onlay” is a bigger version of a porcelain or reinforced resin inlay filling. Crowns – or caps – are used if decay or tooth damage is more extensive.

In Face Lift Dentistry^®, Dr. Muslin replaces old fillings with natural, tooth-colored composite fillings. Gold fillings are long lasting, but are more noticeable than the newer biocompatible materials that Dr. Muslin uses to replace loose amalgam and mismatched dentistry. Dr. Muslin’s specially bonded VENLAY^® veneers correct misaligned and unsightly teeth and maximize the potential of each patient’s profile and face shape.

When it is best for the patient’s long-term wellbeing and dental health, Dr. Muslin recommends safely replacing dark metallic amalgam fillings with tooth-hued composite fillings.

Gum loss affects the aesthetics of one’s smile. Better oral hygiene practices may turn around receding gums in early-stage periodontal disease.  Gum surgery, antibiotics, antibacterial mouth rinses and pinhole surgery may improve gum health, including “black triangle recession,” gap-toothed diastema, and pronounced gingival papilla – the triangular pad of tissue between two adjacent teeth. Pronounced gingival papilla can be corrected with braces, tissue trimming or with dental bonding.

This is where Dr. Muslin shines: teeth reshaping, cosmetic contouring, orthodontics, and fixing the appearance of poorly positioned or misaligned teeth. His patent-pending VENLAY^® Veneer Bonding Method shines in these case studies.

Dr. Muslin, a full mouth restoration expert, combines cosmetic and restorative treatments to handle periodontal issues, TMJ problems, and issues related to missing, damaged and crooked teeth.

Dr. Muslin’s Face Lift Dentistry^® Method treats underbites, overbites, cross bites, open bites, buck teeth and tooth correction. His methods are non-invasive and provide fast pain relief and lasting cosmetic results, as well as health benefits. Face Lift Dentistry^® is non-invasive and requires no braces or surgery.

Nagging jaw pain can derail a happy life. Jaw popping, shooting pain in the ears, migraines and tension in the neck and upper back can make it difficult to eat, sleep or function in the workplace. Taking over-the-counter or prescription pain medicine is a temporary relief at best and a health threat in the worst-case scenario. Opiate addiction is pandemic in the United States. Long-term relief requires a neuromuscular approach. Dr. Muslin looks at tooth structure, muscular tension in the jaw, bite mechanics and the patient’s history and pain cycle. Taking a holistic approach reaps better results and long-term health benefits.

Seventy-six million people were born between 1946 and 1964. These Baby Boomers aren’t getting any younger. That doesn’t stop them from wanting to look youthful as they lead full lives, though. With long life expectancy come health challenges and worn teeth. Dr. Muslin offers dental remedies that enhance wellbeing and looks well into the Golden Years.

“By educating consumers, I give them options. They don’t have to go to a plastic surgeon to restore their looks. There is a better way – one with lasting cosmetic and health results. Anti-aging Facelift Dentistry addresses both cause and effect of the aging face. They get better dental function, and I think most patients appreciate the return on investment.”

Whether you are 70 or 17, self-satisfaction with one’s looks is a vital part of self-confidence and social interaction. If you hate your profile, it affects you. If you have an underbite, it can cause jaw pain and painful social interactions if chewing, speaking and smiling are unorthodox.

Just ask any teenager with an abnormal occlusion. They don’t like eating in front of other people. As people grow older, their teeth wear down. A mild overbite may become more pronounced, causing a receding chin and a collapsed profile. Goodbye confidence. Fortunately, Dr. Muslin gets that. He treats the whole person – mind and body – with Face Lift Dentistry^® and has the raving fans to prove it! Best of all, he knows how to fix an underbite in as little as 2 weeks without the agony of surgery or braces.

Dr. Muslin has a patent pending for his VENLAY^® Restoration bonding system, and owns the trademark on Anti-Aging Facelift Dentistry^®, a dental method he created and developed. Many dentists attempt to mimic his mouth-restoration protocol, but fall short in executing the level of expertise that Dr. Muslin has honed during three decades of practice.
