The confidence you feel in your smile can carry over and affect your overall feelings about the way you look. It can also help you project positive feelings and make good first impressions. Unfortunately, not everyone feels fully at ease with how they look because they have issues with teeth that are discolored, misshapen, or damaged. Whether your issues with your appearance are limited to specific teeth or more general, they can be a source of embarrassment and discomfort that proves hard to shake. The good news is that these issues are fixable. In many cases, our Corona, CA dentist’s office can make the appropriate changes through cosmetic dental bonding and contouring work, something that we can fit into as little as one appointment!

Addressing Painful TMJ Issues
The painful problems you experience with awkward, uneven, and stiff jaw movement can impact your quality of life in ways that are hard to simply ignore.

Fortunately, this is a matter that your Riverside, CA dentist is prepared to address. Through the appropriate review and treatment, we can see to it that your problem with TMJ disorder no longer impacts your quality of life! We can also look at treating any damage from teeth grinding as well as problems with tooth health and structure that might have compromised your bite movements. (more…)
Commit to Routine Dental Checkups in 2023!
Good oral hygiene is important for your self-esteem, confidence, and overall physical health.

How A Filling Matches Tooth Enamel
Once a cavity forms, will you have to say goodbye to the smile you once knew? Decay’s effect on your tooth structure is not reversible, meaning the tissues lost to damage will not be replaced through natural healing. However, what you can do is receive a durable restoration that protects the structure and also provides cosmetic support. At our Riverside, CA dentist’s office, we can provide treatment options for cavities and other problems that negatively impact you. With a lifelike composite resin material, we can actually place dental fillings that blend in with surrounding enamel and go unnoticed. This treatment approach and care with lifelike crowns can ensure that your appearance is not hurt by decay even when that decay forms in a more conspicuous area. (more…)
Dealing With Tartar Accumulation
How effective is your current approach to smile care at fighting tartar? You can protect yourself against its formation, but it will take a visit to the dentist’s office to deal with any buildup that does occur.

During your regular dental visits, this substance is searched for and removed when found in the course of your regular cleanings. Our Riverside, CA dentist’s office is prepared to help you protect yourself against different oral health threats by providing regular preventive services. We are also ready to support you at times when more serious issues arise and require attention, and we can provide guidance to help you better defend your teeth between visits. (more…)

Invisalign provides convenience along with discretion, as these appliances are made to go unnoticed and be easy to remove. (more…)
When Gingivitis Impacts Your Health
