Smile Enhancement in Arroyo, CA

Enhance your smile, your health, and your life.

Teeth Whitening

Teeth whitening is an esthetic, conservative dental procedure that brightens teeth and removing stains and discoloration.


Your custom-fitted, reusable trays are made at our office to deliver your Opalescence whitening gel.  The shape of your trays and specific whitening gel concentration both reduce your sensitivity throughout the whitening process.


Dr. Ulep and Dr. Hernandez encourage you to take photos before treatment to track your results. Come in to see Dr. Ulep and Dr. Hernandez if additional whitening is preferred after at-home treatment.

Clear Aligners in Arroyo Grande, CA

Clear Aligners

Clear aligners are custom-fitted appliances that are designed to gradually shift teeth into their proper positions. They can correct a variety of dental issues such as crooked teeth, crowding, gaps, and certain bite problems.


For Dr. Ulep and Dr. Hernandez, having straight teeth is more than aesthetics. Misaligned teeth can make it difficult to maintain proper oral hygiene, leading to an increased risk of tooth decay and gum disease. Properly aligning your teeth with clear aligners makes it easier to clean your teeth effectively, improving your oral health.


They are also removable, making it easier to maintain your oral hygiene regimen and enjoy your favorite foods without restrictions.


Dr. Ulep and Dr. Hernandez are excited to offer Candid to patients as their choice for alignment treatment.

Veneers

Veneers are thin, custom-made shells typically made of porcelain or composite resin, designed to conservatively cover the front surface of teeth to enhance their natural appearance.


Veneers are often used to address:

  • Discoloration
  • Worn, chipped, or broken teeth
  • Misaligned teeth
  • Irregularly shaped teeth
  • Crowding/spacing without aligner therapy


Dr. Ulep and Dr. Hernandez will work with you to determine if these is the best approach for your smile enhancement goals.

Inlays, Onlays and Crowns in Arroyo Grande, CA

Inlays, Onlays, and Crowns

Tooth-colored ceramic inlays, onlays, and crowns help restore large areas of your tooth lost to a cavity or fracture. These provide more support and strength than a filling, which is necessary when restoring the form and most importantly, function, of the natural tooth.


Our office works with Smiles by Rego to ensure your ceramic restoration fits seamlessly with your smile.

Smile Makeover

A smile makeover is a comprehensive approach to improving the aesthetics of your smile through one or more cosmetic dental procedure such as teeth whitening, teeth alignment, veneers, or dental restorations. 


The process is tailored to your specific needs and desires, addressing issues like tooth discoloration, gaps, chips, misalignments, or missing teeth. 


Come in for a consultation with Dr. Ulep and Dr. Hernandez to see how your smile can make your confidence shine through.
