About Alamar Cosmetic Dentistry Mark A Da Re DDS & Christopher L Mjelde DMD

Based on State Street in the North State area of Santa Barbara, California, Alamar Cosmetic Dentistry Mark A Da Re DDS & Christopher L Mjelde DMD is a dental practice serving the area. A dental implant replaces a missing tooth at the root, not just the crown — a small titanium post is placed in the jaw bone and, once it has integrated over a period of months, a replacement tooth is attached to it. It is generally the most durable option for a single missing tooth or several.

A veneer is a thin custom shell bonded to the front of a tooth to change its shape, length, or colour, most often used to address chips, gaps, or discoloration that whitening alone cannot fix. Traditional veneers require a small amount of enamel to be removed, which makes the change permanent.

Cosmetic dentistry covers treatment aimed primarily at appearance — whitening, veneers, bonding, and reshaping among the more common options — for patients who are less concerned with a problem that hurts than with how their smile looks day to day. The right combination depends on what specifically you would like to change.

Root canal treatment removes infected or inflamed tissue from inside a tooth, cleans and seals the space, and allows the natural tooth to be kept rather than extracted. Its reputation for being painful is largely outdated — carried out under local anaesthetic, it typically relieves pain rather than causing it.

A crown covers an entire damaged tooth — used when too much structure is missing for a filling to hold reliably, whether from a large fracture, extensive decay, or after root canal treatment. It restores both the shape and the biting strength of the tooth underneath.

Dr. Da Re’s office is always neat and orderly. The atmosphere is professional but friendly. Our dental hygienists have been consistently impressive over the years. I see Kristin and she is amazing. I saw the newest doctor, Dr. Mina, yesterday and she seems to be a worthy addition to the team. We feel fortunate to have found such conscientious and reliable dentistry for preventive care as well as the occasional emergency.

I was very pleasantly surprised. I was somewhat nervous about having a new crown put on my front tooth, but Dr. D're could not have been more caring and professional. What I appreciated most was that he let me know what he was doing every step of the way. This was very comforting, to keep me informed. The procedure was done very professionally and with no pain at all. Dr. D're answered my questions and put me at ease. I also want to praise Cherie at the front desk...she is also very caring and considerate. I have recommended this dental office to a friend of mine and her husband and they were pleased as well.

I have been going to Dr. Da Re for many years now, and am so happy to have found this place, after some less savory dental experiences. I hope to go the duration here. My hygienist Kristin is great at what she does and with a comforting style and awareness of my particular dental situation, making it hard when I have switched to others (who have also been very skilled and with an easy manner). Thumbs up!
