Smile makeovers are not about dentistry. They’re about you, getting your life back. The result you’ve been dreaming of is closer than you think, and the process to get there is far more comfortable than you’d expect. Dr. Tostado has spent over a decade making sure of that.
A Dental Appointment That Feels Genuinely Supportive
A smile you’re self-conscious about has a way of making decisions for you, and finding the right dentist to change that takes more than a quick Google search.
Dr. Tostado and Dr. Acuña will sit with you first, hear exactly what you want to change, and design a result built around your face and your goals. Nothing is recommended that doesn’t serve what you’re after.
That’s what your first visit looks like at 5Star Dental.
Your Makeover, Built Around You
Every plan starts with a conversation. Yours might involve one treatment or several, depending on what you want to change and what your teeth need.
Porcelain Veneers
The teeth you’ve been hiding from the world become the ones you want to show off. Dr. Tostado shapes and shades ultra-thin porcelain shells specifically for your teeth.
Porcelain Crowns
The weakened, cracked, or damaged tooth you’ve been doing your best to work around regains its full strength and healthy appearance, with every crown made and fitted in our Tooth Studio.
Dental Bonding
The chips, gaps, or irregularities you’ve learned to smile around disappear, often in a single visit.
Zoom Whitening
The dullness and discoloration you’ve spent years feeling self-conscious about lifts in a single appointment, and is often the finishing touch that brings your whole smile into harmony.
Invisalign
The misalignment you’ve spent so much time wishing away is gradually corrected, without anyone noticing you’re in treatment.
Dental Implants
The missing tooth you’ve been compensating for is seamlessly replaced, root included, so everything works how it should.

See Your Result Before You Commit
What if you don’t love the result? Dr. Tostado built his process around that exact fear: every step moves forward only once you’re ready. Here’s how it works:
Your consultation
Dr. Tostado reviews your oral health with full diagnostic imaging, listens to what you want to change, then offers his recommendations for building your personalized plan.
Your diagnostic wax-up
A physical wax model of your proposed result allows you to see the exact shape and proportions on the model in front of you. Changes are easy to make here.
Your trial smile
You’ll wear provisional temporaries before anything permanent is placed, giving you the chance to see exactly how your new smile looks and feels in real life.
Your final result
Once you’re happy with every detail, Dr. Tostado places your permanent restorations and refines them in our Tooth Studio until they look like they’ve always been there.
If dental anxiety has prevented you from having the smile of your dreams, you’re in the right place. You’ll find the pace here is patient-led, with weighted blankets and noise-canceling headphones available as standard, and sedation options to choose from if you need them.
As one patient put it: “Everything was explained to me in fine detail, making sure I left with no questions unanswered. The fee for services was given to me in writing. I am ready to begin.”
Your Prosthodontist With an Artist’s Eye
Dr. Tostado personally designs and produces each crown and veneer in his on-site Tooth Studio, so every detail of your restoration stays in his hands, from the dentist who knows your face to the person making what goes in your mouth.
He works alongside Dr. Karina Acuña, whose integrative approach means your treatment plan accounts for more than your teeth. Your overall wellbeing feeds into the picture too.
One patient has been making a 70-mile round trip for 35 years to sit in this chair. Another drives three hours each way. When patients travel that far past other dental offices, it says something.
The Smile You’ve Been Waiting For Begins Here
Come with your questions, your hesitations, or simply a sense of what you’d like to change. Dr. Tostado will give you an honest picture of what’s achievable and exactly what it will cost you, in writing, before anything begins.
