- Teeth CleaningDr. Hakim here in Palo Alto believes the basis of sound dental care is routine cleaning and maintenance. Our dental hygienists will customize treatment to ensure your specific periodontal (gums and bone) needs are met and will provide you the best treatment in our dentist office while making sure you understand how to take care of your teeth at home.
- Fillings
- Resin CompositeBonding is a quick, painless in-office procedure to repair cracks, chips, gaps between teeth or cover stained teeth to enhance your smile. It is a procedure that Dr. Hakim has performed here at our Palo Alto dentistry practice many times. Dental bonding can often be done without anesthesia if there is no decay or pulp exposure. The bonding material is developed in many shades allowing the dentist to accurately match the shade of your natural teeth. The composite resin forms a durable, stain resistant surface that is later smoothed and polished to give it a natural appearance and feel.
- VeneersPalo Alto smile makeover specialist Dr. Zahra Hakim and Extraordinary Smile, can give you a brand new smile with Porcelain Veneers in just one visit using state-of-the-art CEREC ® technology and digital dentistry.
- CrownsIf you have a damaged tooth that needs repair, you no longer have to wait several days to get it fixed. With CEREC®, Palo Alto dentist Dr. Hakim will fit a crown over a tooth that has been damaged from wear, fracture or decay, in just one visit.
- BridgesWe will prescribe a dental bridge when one or more teeth are missing and there are healthy teeth on both sides of the open space. Bridges can be made from three types of material, solid gold for reliable long wear, porcelain fused to a gold base for strength and beauty, and high-strength metal-free porcelain for optimum cosmetic results. With proper care, your new bridge will increase your overall health and instill confidence for years to come.

With proper care, an Endodontically treated tooth will function normally for years to come.

- DenturesIf you have lost some or all of your natural teeth, dentures can be used to replace your missing teeth – improving your health as well as your appearance. Dentures prevent the sagging of facial muscles, which makes a person with no teeth look much older. Dentures also enable you to eat and speak normally, little things often taken for granted until natural teeth are lost.
- Dental ImplantsDental implants have become the preferred method of replacing missing teeth for Palo Alto dentist Dr. Zahra Hakim. Along with restoring the ability to chew, dental implants can repair a damaged smile, end embarrassment and restore self-confidence.
