Posted

Are you looking for options to improve the appearance of your smile? If stains and blemishes are diminishing the shade of your grin, it can be quite frustrating. Take a look a pictures of yourself from recent years and you may notice a much brighter look on your teeth. This is because particles in the everyday foods and drinks we love can slowly accumulate in the surface of your enamel. Other habits like smoking and certain genetic factors can reveal a yellow look as you age as well. Fortunately, a visit to your dentist can provide a professional whitening treatment that lifts stains and returns the original look of your healthy smile.

At your Riverside, CA dentist’s office, we understand how important your cosmetic appearance can be to your mental well-being. Our gel-based bleaching treatments can restore your confidence by tackling the source of your discoloration issue. When you make the decision to lift stains from your teeth, you return a bright, white look you can be proud to show off to others! (more…)

The oral hygiene habits children learn at a young age help them maintain a healthy smile for an entire lifetime. By taking your child to their first cleanings and examinations, they become comfortable with the idea of regularly cleaning their teeth in a professional environment. Beginning with the eruption of their first baby tooth, a casual introduction to the dentist sets the groundwork for more involved visits as additional teeth come in. At this early stage, children’s dentistry focuses on protecting little smiles as they grow into adulthood.

At your Riverside, CA dental practice, we take a special approach when meeting children for the first time. By providing a comforting atmosphere, we allow your child to feel at ease when learning about dental care.  Just like their adult counterparts, we focus on preventing tooth decay and other oral harm to provide healthy smiles.

Helping You Prevent Tooth Decay

If it has been a long time since your last visit, we recommend scheduling an appointment at least once every six months. At your semiannual cleaning and examination, you receive the care needed to protect your smile from tooth decay and other oral threats. Each cleaning allows us to remove plaque and tartar deposits from the surface of your teeth to prevent them from causing cavities, gum disease, or dangerous infections. Our examination process allows us to review your daily at-home hygiene habits and provide instruction on your brushing and flossing routine.

At your Temecula, CA dental practice, we prevent the buildup of bacteria that can harm your smile. When you attend each of your appointments, you gain peace of mind that your teeth are regularly cleaned. Each meeting provides a check-in to catch existing oral threats and treat them before they become worse. If we do find a cavity, early detection allows us to restore the health of your tooth before the decay process requires a more involved solution.

A Solution For Your Tooth Infection

Posted

If you have consistent pain in one of your teeth that will not subside, this can be a sign of a serious underlying health problem. Whenever you have this symptom, it can indicate an infection of the pulp within your tooth. Without professional treatment, your pain will continue and you risk spreading the infection to other parts of your body. A tooth infection is often the result of damage to the enamel that exposes the insides of your tooth to oral bacteria. Whether from physical damage or tooth decay, this exposure allows bacteria to infect and cause painful inflammation in your sensitive nerves.

At your Corona, CA dental practice, we understand how painful a tooth infection can be. This is why we offer root canal therapy to relieve your symptoms and protect your mouth from the dangerous spread of oral bacteria. To help restore your smile after performing this procedure, we will plan a restoration to restore the natural appearance of your injured tooth!

Maintaining Strong Gum Health

When it comes to promoting healthy smiles, the health of your gums can be as important as that of your teeth. Your gingival tissues provide the vital connection between your jawbone and your teeth to hold them securely in place. When your gums are healthy, they also provide an important seal against oral bacteria from infecting deep into your body. This means that any threats to your gums threaten the stability of your teeth themselves and can lead to serious infections. By rigorously following a daily brushing and flossing routine, you remove the sticky film of bacteria that can turn into plaque and cause a gum infection. Visiting your dentist on a semiannual basis also allows you to receive cleaning beyond the abilities of your routine at home. At these checkups, we can detect if disease is present and place you on the appropriate maintenance therapy schedule if needed.

Your Moreno Valley, CA dentist is your partner in supporting the health of your gums.  At each of your checkups, we examine their health and perform cleanings to remove bacterial deposits. Treatments such as deep cleanings allow us to heal your gums when an infection presents itself. (more…)

Orthodontic Improvement For Your Smile

When it comes to improving problems with the spacing of your teeth, learning all of your options for orthodontic corrections can help you make the best decision. Different appliances seek the same results of straighter teeth, but provide different benefits during the corrective period. For example, clear aligners are removable to offer easier cleaning, while traditional braces provide the tension to correct more severe alignment issues. When you understand the differences, you can gain confidence when consulting with your dentist.

At your Riverside, CA, dental practice, we can help you bring your teeth into a more desirable position with modern orthodontic solutions. When you meet with the team members at Riverside Dental Group, we evaluate your level of malocclusion to determine which therapy can work for you. With both Invisalign clear aligners and traditional metal braces, we offer health and cosmetic improvement only orthodontics can provide!

The Importance Of Children’s Dentistry

Learning habits to protect the health of your smile begins in early childhood. This means that when kids attend their first checkups and cleanings, they become accustomed to the role the dentist plays in safeguarding their smile. When a child’s first tooth erupts, meeting the dentist helps them become comfortable with the idea of taking care of their teeth. Children’s dentistry focuses on preventive treatments to protect your child’s teeth as they grow and develop into adolescence.

At your Temecula, CA, dentist’s office, we offer a comforting atmosphere to welcome kids to their first dental visits and ease them into treatment. When your child begins attending the dentist early, we help prevent problems with decay from harming their teeth and can treat existing issues before they become worse.

Protecting You From Tooth Decay

Posted

If you have skipped a recent appointment, you should remember that routine cleanings and examinations are one of your best tools in the fight against tooth decay. Your dentist helps you remove plaque and tartar deposits that cause cavities to form in the first place and can detect existing damage before it further damages your teeth. Because your oral hygiene habits at home form the basis for cavity prevention, we can inspect the results of your brushing and flossing and offer guidance on appropriate techniques.

At your Corona, CA dentist’s office, we protect smiles from the harmful effects of bacterial buildup. By staying on top of your semiannual visitation schedule, you receive a cleaning and inspection to ensure no plaque deposits remain on your teeth. When we do find cavities, we promptly remove them and provide a restoration to maintain the health of your tooth and stop the spread of disease! (more…)

Root Canal Therapy Treats Infection

Posted

A constant toothache that will not go away is not a problem you should ignore. When dental pain lasts for days, it may indicate an infection within the pulp of your tooth that requires professional treatment. Infections result when damage to your enamel from decay or physical trauma exposes the insides of your tooth to bacteria within your mouth. Without the protective seal of the tooth’s surface, oral bacteria enter and gather around the sensitive root. As your body forms a response to fight the infection, you experience the serious pain of inflamed nerves. Even worse, if you fail to seek treatment, the infection risks spreading from the tooth to your jaw and other parts of your body.

At your Moreno Valley, CA dentist’s office, we stress the importance of treating infected teeth before they become worse. Performing root canal therapy can offer valuable relief from your pain and remove the infected material that continues to damage your oral health. Because this procedure permanently alters its surface, we can help you plan a restoration to protect your tooth from future reinfection.
