What to expect
Every appointment in our Century City office is led by Dr. Esfahani — no handoffs, no rushed visits, no surprise treatment recommendations.
Overview
Repairs that disappear.
When a cavity or small fracture needs repair, a tooth-colored composite filling restores the tooth and matches your enamel so closely it's hard to spot. Gone are the days of dark metal fillings showing every time you laugh.
Composite bonds directly to the tooth, which means we can often remove less healthy structure than silver fillings required. Most fillings are completed comfortably in a single appointment.

Our approach
Only what the tooth needs.
Not every dark spot is a cavity, and not every cavity needs treatment today. We photograph anything we want to watch and treat what genuinely needs it.
When a filling is the right call, we keep it conservative — removing the decay, preserving healthy enamel, and restoring the tooth so it feels like nothing happened.
