Restorative dentistry in Irvine is a well-served category — with practices like Rice Dentistry, Irvine Implant & Restorative, and Smile by Design offering comprehensive reconstruction services. What Newport Beach Dental Center brings to Irvine patients is a different philosophy: treat only what needs treating, preserve as much natural tooth structure as possible, and use materials that mimic what healthy teeth are already doing. Dr. Laura Sharbash, DDS, FAGD, D.ABDSM, applies this biomimetic approach to every restorative case — evaluating whether an inlay, onlay, or direct restoration can achieve a durable result before recommending a crown, and whether conservative care can avoid a root canal before one becomes necessary.
Dr. Sharbash is a Fellow of the Academy of General Dentistry — a credential held by fewer than 7% of dentists nationally. Newport Beach Dental Center is approximately 20 to 30 minutes from Irvine via the 73 Toll Road or Jamboree Road, and welcomes new restorative patients from throughout Orange County. According to the Academy of Biomimetic Dentistry, this conservative approach can meaningfully reduce the need for root canals and crowns compared to conventional restorative methods. For Irvine patients who have been quoted extensive restorative plans elsewhere, this represents the second opinion worth getting.

Newport Beach Dental Center provides a full range of restorative treatments, from conservative single-tooth repairs to comprehensive full mouth reconstruction.
Composite resin fillings match the natural color of your tooth and bond directly to remaining tooth structure, requiring less removal of healthy enamel than traditional amalgam. For patients with old metal fillings that are failing or cosmetically bothersome, replacement with composite is a common and conservative option.
Using CEREC CAD/CAM technology, Dr. Sharbash can design, mill, and place a permanent ceramic crown in a single appointment — no temporaries, no second visit, no waiting weeks for a dental lab.
For missing teeth, implants are the only restorative option that addresses bone loss at the root level. Learn more on our dental implants in Irvine page.
Patients with multiple damaged, decayed, or missing teeth may benefit from a coordinated reconstruction plan that sequences treatments logically. Dr. Sharbash develops these plans collaboratively, explaining each phase before it begins — no surprises, no upsell.
Rather than defaulting to a crown for every damaged tooth, Dr. Sharbash evaluates whether an inlay, onlay, or direct restoration can achieve a durable result with significantly less removal of healthy structure.

Biomimetic dentistry uses materials and techniques that mimic the natural properties of healthy teeth. Rather than defaulting to a crown, Dr. Sharbash evaluates whether an inlay, onlay, or direct restoration can achieve a durable result with less removal of natural tooth structure — reducing the long-term need for root canals and crowns.
Same-day CEREC crowns are milled from high-strength ceramic and designed to last 10 to 15 years or more with proper care. Placed in one appointment, there is no temporary crown period and the fit is precise.
