Our personalized, state-of-the-art approach to Restorative Dentistry Los Altos ensures that no matter your concern, we have a durable, effective, and aesthetically pleasing solution to bring back the smile you deserve.
Dental Fillings: The Foundation of Restorative Care
Dental fillings are the most common procedure in restorative dentistry, serving as the first line of defense against tooth decay. At our Los Altos practice, we use high-quality, tooth-colored fillings to seamlessly repair teeth affected by cavities.
- Why Dental Fillings? Fillings are the go-to solution for treating cavities, halting the progression of decay, and restoring the structural integrity of a tooth. By filling the area where decay was removed, we strengthen the tooth and prevent future fractures.
- Advantages of Tooth-Colored Fillings: Our modern, tooth-colored fillings blend flawlessly with your natural teeth for a discreet result. This composite resin material bonds directly to the tooth, providing additional support. Best of all, they are completely metal-free, offering an aesthetically pleasing and safe alternative to traditional amalgam fillings.
Inlays and Onlays: Advanced Tooth Restoration
When a tooth is too damaged for a simple filling but does not require a full dental crown, inlays and onlays are the ideal solution. These custom-made restorations are a cornerstone of advanced Restorative Dentistry Los Altos.
- Inlays: These are designed to fit perfectly within the grooves of a tooth, ideal when damage is contained to the central chewing surface.
- Onlays: When damage extends to one or more of the tooth’s cusps (the points), an onlay is used to cover a larger portion of the surface, providing more substantial protection.
- Key Advantages: Inlays and onlays preserve more of your natural tooth structure than a crown. They are exceptionally durable and are matched to the color of your teeth for a seamless, natural appearance.
Dental Bonding: Quick and Affordable Smile Enhancements
As part of our versatile Restorative Dentistry Los Altos services, dental bonding offers a fast and painless solution for various minor imperfections. Using a tooth-colored composite resin, we can artfully conceal and repair flaws.
- Chips and Cracks: Seamlessly restore the appearance of chipped or cracked teeth.
- Gaps and Spaces: Close small, unwanted gaps between teeth for a more uniform smile.
- Discoloration: Camouflage stubborn stains that don’t respond to teeth whitening.
Root Canal Therapy: Saving Your Natural Tooth
A root canal is a crucial restorative procedure designed to save a severely damaged or infected tooth from extraction. By removing the infected inner pulp, we eliminate pain and infection at the source.
- What is a Root Canal? The procedure involves cleaning and disinfecting the inside of the tooth, then filling and sealing it. It is performed under local anesthesia to ensure a comfortable experience.
- Benefits of Root Canal Therapy: This treatment relieves severe tooth pain, saves your natural tooth, prevents the spread of infection, and, with a crown, restores the tooth’s full function and appearance. It is a vital part of preserving a complete, healthy smile.
Dental Bridges: Bridging the Gap of Missing Teeth
If you are missing one or more teeth, dental bridges offer a reliable and fixed solution. As a key component of Restorative Dentistry Los Altos, a bridge restores your smile’s appearance and oral health.
- What are Dental Bridges?These custom-made prosthetics consist of one or more artificial teeth (pontics) held in place by dental crowns anchored to the adjacent natural teeth.
- Benefits of Dental Bridges: Bridges restore your ability to chew and speak properly, prevent remaining teeth from shifting out of position, maintain your natural facial structure, and give you a beautiful, confident smile.
Dentures: A Complete Solution for Missing Teeth
For patients with significant tooth loss, dentures are a time-tested and effective restorative solution. We design custom dentures that are comfortable, functional, and natural-looking.
Complete Dentures:
For patients missing all teeth in an arch, complete dentures provide a full smile renewal. They restore oral function and provide essential support for facial muscles. For superior stability, we also offer implant-supported dentures, which function almost identically to natural teeth.
Partial Dentures:
Ideal for patients who have some healthy natural teeth remaining, partial dentures fill the gaps left by missing teeth. They seamlessly blend with your existing teeth, restoring aesthetics, preventing shifting, and improving chewing ability.

Patient Testimonials
Dr. Keyvan Hashemi is a fabulous dentist. He’s an expert in all dental work. He truly cares about his patients and his warm demeanor and good looks is a plus.
Dr. Hashemi took several highly complex situations involving my 83 year old father’s teeth/crowns and solved them one by one, with patience, rigor and innovative prowess. Read more!
I was tempted to find a dental practice closer to home after my dentist of over 30 years retired, but am glad I stayed. Dr. Hashemi and his team are professional, competent, friendly and add just the right amount of levity to what could easily be a dreaded visit.
When my dentist sold their practice last year, I decided I would never see another dentist in my lifetime. I am not a fan of change and I take pretty good care of my teeth. Apparently I had scheduled a cleaning months prior, so when Dr. Hashemi’s office sent me a reminder, I felt obligated to keep the appointment. Read more!

Dr. Hashemi wend above and beyond to save the tooth that 90 % of dentist would replace with an implant. I wanted to save it and he did extra work to make it happen.

I recently visited Dr Kevin Hashemi for my crown and root canal. Not only he was kind, personable and welcoming but even better than that he did an excellent job of filling one of my teeth, and doing a root canal followed by a crown on another painful and problematic tooth without any pain and anxiety. Thank you Dr Hashemi, you are awesome and I can’t thank you enough for making it such an easy and seamless procedure and taking all my fear away.
