Relieve Pain & Discomfort
Prevent Further Damage

Dental Fillings

Dental fillings restore teeth damaged by decay or cavities. After removing the decayed portion, we fill the area with a tooth-colored composite resin material for a seamless, natural-looking restoration. Fillings allow you to keep your natural tooth structure while preventing further decay.

Dental Fillings

Same-Day Crowns

Our modern dental office features CEREC technology to provide same-day dental crowns. Crowns are protective coverings that fit over a damaged or decayed tooth to restore its shape, size, strength and appearance. With CEREC, we can design, mill and place your custom crown in just one appointment.

Same-Day Crowns

Root Canal Therapy

Root canal therapy becomes necessary when decay or an injury allows bacteria to infect the inner pulp of the tooth. This procedure removes the infected pulp, cleans and disinfects the canal, and seals it to prevent future infections. Root canals relieve tooth pain and allow you to keep your natural tooth.

Root Canal Therapy

Extractions

In some cases, a severely damaged or decayed tooth cannot be saved and requires extraction. We perform gentle tooth extractions and provide sedation options to keep you comfortable. After extraction, we can discuss tooth replacement solutions like dental implants or bridges.

Extractions

Dental Bridges

A dental bridge literally "bridges" the gap between missing teeth using a row of prosthetic teeth anchored to existing natural teeth on each side. Bridges can restore your smile, prevent shifting of remaining teeth, and enable proper chewing function.

Dental Bridges

Dentures

For patients missing most or all of their teeth, we custom-craft full or partial dentures. Our dentures are designed for a comfortable, stable fit while restoring your smile and allowing you to eat and speak normally again.

Dentures

Implant-Retained Dentures

This innovative tooth replacement solution uses strategically placed dental implants to securely anchor full or partial dentures in place. Implant dentures won't slip or irritate your gums, providing superior function and stability compared to traditional dentures.

FAQs

Have questions? Find answers here.

How long do restorative treatments like crowns and fillings last?

With proper care and maintenance, dental fillings can last anywhere from 5 to 15 years, depending on various factors such as the location of the filling and the patient's oral hygiene habits, while crowns typically last between 10 to 15 years before needing replacement. At our clinic, we prioritize the use of high-quality materials to ensure long-lasting restorative results, providing our patients with durable and reliable dental treatments.

Can dental implants be performed on someone who was told they don't have enough jaw bone density?

In many cases, yes! Our skilled professionals have the ability to perform bone grafting procedures, which involve the use of bone materials to regenerate enough bone to successfully place dental implants.

Is root canal therapy painful?

Thanks to modern techniques and the use of anesthetics, root canal therapy is now no more uncomfortable than getting a filling, making it a much less daunting experience for patients. In fact, the procedure not only relieves the pain caused by the inner tooth infection but also helps to preserve the natural tooth, maintaining the overall health and function of the mouth.

How much do restorative treatments cost?

Costs vary based on the specific treatment needed. We offer financing options to make restorative dentistry affordable, and your dental insurance may provide coverage as well.

Patient Testimonials

You say it best.

Face it, nobody likes going to the dentist. I get that. But I actually look forward to my dentist visits because of the people! Everyone here is so nice and non-judgmental it's been my pleasure to go here for going on 5 years now! They also know what they're doing, which hasn't been my experience in the past. I am consistently confident that they will take care of my mouth when I go here!

Clint D.

Cupertino

The quality of PCCD’s work is outstanding! My teeth and my smile have never looked better. I would recommend PCCD for people needing cosmetic dentistry.

Caren C.

Los Altos

I came to PCCD after doing extensive research online. I had old crowns on my front teeth, old amalgam fillings on my molars that have been worn down. I was also never comfortable with my smile. I’ve always had a dental phobia since childhood and have avoided seeing a dentist… They listened to all my concerns and issues. They presented different options and reviewed them with me. I ended up doing a full mouth reconstruction and I am very happy with the results. It was the best decision I ever made.

Dan A.

Los Altos

Dr.Pham & Dr.Katerina are the best! Very conservative and go into details to explain things to patients.

Valeria

Cupertino

I have never liked the look of my teeth. The spaces between my teeth have always bothered me. I found PCCD while doing research on the internet and went to him to find out what my options were. He gave me new porcelain veneers and closed the spaces between my teeth. Now, I feel more confident about my smile.

Anthony B.

Los Altos

Such a lovely place for me and my teeth! The staff is always so friendly and welcoming, they always remember me and ask about my family, the whole facility is immaculate, and while they recommend options they never try to push extra services on me. The cost is competitive for Silicon Valley and they accept insurance and flex spending accounts so I waltz right out the door with no hassle! Happy teeth and BEE!

Bonnie E.

Mountain View

I had my first visit with Dr. Indah at Dental Arts of Mountain View today. It was for a TMJ consult. It was by far and away one of the most thorough exams and consultation I've ever had. Amayra, her assistant, was professional, kind and a very warm person. Dr. Indah was also very professional, informative and kind. I am very happy with this office and my first visit was excellent!

Jenny M.

Mountain View

As a new patient, I can say the whole team was super friendly! When you walk in the door, you immediately feel welcomed. The whole staff were all nice and helpful. Dr. Pham did a good job to make sure you felt comfortable and that you left without any questions. Definitely recommend!

Justin K.

Cupertino

I had a great experience having work done on my teeth! The staff was super friendly and scheduling was a breeze. Dr. Pham took his time making sure that I was completely comfortable throughout the procedure. The folks in the office were very thoughtful making me feel well taken care of. After the procedure, everything aligned properly the first time which I was impressed by!

Jim R.

Cupertino

In a word.... AWESOME! I lost a front crown the night before calling Dental Arts of Mountain View. The next day, only hours later, I had a new crown! Dr. Oh and his staff, Susie, Haley, Margorie and Beatrice were truly amazing. The lobby and offices are gorgeous and provides a tranquil environment with massage chairs during procedures. Yes, this dental office is second to none. I did extensive research by googling the "best cosmetic and general dentistry." Dental Arts was at the top of the list. A well deserved reputation that I drove an hour and half to confirm.  The cost was unbelievable affordable.  Great value and results that left a very big Smile on my face! Thank you very much Dental Arts you are the BEST!

AJ A.

Mountain View

Thank you, staff of the Peninsula Center of Cosmetic Dentistry for making my cosmetic dentistry experience outstanding. Before visiting, I was self conscious of my teeth and hardly smiled at new people or in pictures. Now I have a brilliant smile and my self confidence has been boosted! I would recommend the Peninsula Center of Cosmetic Dentistry to anyone.

Mike S.

Los Altos

Excellent and professional care for replacement of two crowns by Dr. Van and his able assistant, Lo. Clear explanations as he proceeded, Dr. Van's manner was warm, reassuring and expert. I am squeamish about dental care, and they made me feel so safe, calm and reassured.  I am happy to recommend the entire office.

Eleanor L.

Mountain View

Phenomenal experience. I look for a dentist who not only has experience but the highest quality of skill and care. It’s not just about quality, though, I also look for someone who has an excellent reputation. Doctors who have the skill-set as well as attention to detail. It is important to me to have  the ability to understand my needs and desired outcome. I really do appreciate Dr. Field being a premier leader in cosmetic dentistry. Impressive.

I can’t wait to see the models of my teeth not to mention, my new smile! I even brought my kid with me, too! Now that is incredible!  Thank you!

Natalina K.

Mountain View

Because I am on camera everyday, my smile is so important. PCCD’s dentists and wonderful staff made it beautiful, white and healthy. And the best part – no pain and no anxiety. Going to PCCD was a pleasant experience. Did you ever think you would hear that about going to a dentist? I would recommend PCCD to anyone.

Enhance your oral health without the use of harsh chemicals. Ozone therapy is a non-invasive treatment that harnesses the power of ozone to eliminate harmful bacteria, viruses, and fungi in your mouth. This therapy can help prevent tooth decay, treat gum disease, and promote faster healing after dental procedures. During the process, we apply ozone gas or ozonated water to the affected areas, which works to disinfect and stimulate the body's natural healing response.

Root Canal Therapy

When decay or trauma infects the inner pulp of a tooth, root canal therapy is required to remove the infected material, disinfect, and seal the tooth from the inside to prevent future issues. Don't worry - root canals relieve tooth pain and modern dental techniques have changed their reputation of being painful.

Root Canal Therapy

Digital X-Rays

We use digital X-rays to take accurate and detailed images of your teeth, bones, and soft tissues. Digital X-rays emit significantly lower levels of radiation compared to traditional film X-rays and allow for immediate viewing and easy sharing with specialists if needed. Our typical recommendation is to have bitewing X-rays once a year and a full mouth series every 3-5 years to monitor your oral health.

Dental Bridges

To replace one or more missing teeth in a row, we may recommend a dental bridge. This affordable restoration uses one or more artificial teeth anchored on either side to existing teeth, "bridging" the space left by missing teeth.

Dental Sealants

Sealants are thin coatings used to protect the chewing surfaces of your back teeth (molars and premolars) from cavities. These teeth have deep grooves and pits where food and bacteria can get trapped, making them hard to clean and more prone to decay. Sealants create a smooth, easy-to-clean surface and can stay effective for several years if properly maintained.

If any of the supporting teeth are compromised, this can also compromise the dental bridge and require immediate treatment. Bridges have become less popular now that dental implants are available.

Dental implants retain their natural look longer and do not damage healthy teeth around the implant.

I came to PCCD after doing extensive research online. I had old crowns on my front teeth, old amalgam fillings on my molars that have been worn down. I was also never comfortable with my smile. I’ve always had a dental phobia since childhood and have avoided seeing a dentist… They listened to all my concerns and issues. They presented different options and reviewed them with me. I ended up doing a full mouth reconstruction and I am very happy with the results. It was the best decision I ever made.
