WHAT PEOPLE SAY
Testimonials
This dentist is the best I've been to. All of the staff are very helpful and involved in your needs. It's nice to see people that take their job seriously. I came in for an X-ray and cleaning, and after a detailed checkup I decided to get treatment here as well. I had six cavities filled and a deep cleaning, which helped with my gum recession. The prices are affordable and if you need major work, they will work out a payment plan. I am satisfied and will keep recommending Smile Boutique and coming back to Dr. Borzoo. Thank you!
Vladislau P.★★★★★ 
The quality of care and service you will receive from the staff at Smile Boutique is priceless. Like any major procedure, the process of getting veneers was unknown to me. Upon reviewing different cosmetic dentists, I was convinced to proceed with Smile Boutique because of the reviews and quality of work they presented on their site; this was the best decision I made.
From the beginning, the receptionist team answered the majority of my questions and invited me offer for a free consultation.
Marilyn R.★★★★★
I had 4 wisdom teeth removed recently and it was a painless experience thanks to Smile Boutique. Thank you Dr. Fukui for your awesome work. Although a dentist trip is not a good time, they made it as effortless as possible for me. The surgery went smoothly and I was sedated the whole time. I recovered very quickly, much better then expected. My teeth don't hurt anymore, the crowding in my jaw is gone. No more discomfort or pain. I trust these doctors and will be coming back here in the future.

Bruxism / Grinding
What’s that pain you’ve been having in your jaw, your ear, your face, your head? It very likely might be Bruxism, grinding your teeth often in your sleep when you are not aware of it. We can address this problem and resolve the discomfort and pain it causes you. We are trained in treating bruxism.
What is
Bruxism?
Bruxism is the act of consciously or unconsciously clenching or grinding your teeth either during the day or while you sleep. Bruxism is considered both a medical and a dental problem. This is because it affects both the teeth and all of the structure near it, including the head.
Effects of
Bruxism
People grind their teeth for a variety of reasons. Doctors believe that it is because of stress. Dentists say that it happens because one’s teeth are not properly aligned with each other. Whatever the cause, treatment should not be delayed. Teeth grinding may not seem to be a major health issue but can lead to problems such as broken, chipped or worn teeth; broken dentures; headaches and migraines; ear ringing; sore jaw joints (TMJ); dizziness; and sore head, neck and shoulder muscles.
Indications of
Bruxism
- Intense clenching of teeth, sometimes forceful enough to wake you up
- Flattened, worn down, and chipped teeth
- Worn tooth enamel
- Sensitive teeth (jolts of pain from cold or hot foods and beverages or bristles of a toothbrush)
- Pain and tightness in the jaws and surrounding muscles
- Ear aches and/or ear ringing
- Headaches and/or migraines
- Sore Jaw Joints
- Muscle pain in face, neck or shoulders
Treatment for
Bruxism
You will be fitted by our dentist with custom Mouth Guards to prevent you from grinding and clenching your teeth. Night mouth guards are bite pads that are worn at night as you sleep. These guards are made of high-grade plastic and should fit the teeth or mouth perfectly. This device keeps the upper teeth from grinding with the lower teeth, offering an instant solution to teeth clenching problems.
Call us today to schedule an appointment if you are experiencing problems with teeth grinding.
