Placing A Strong Dental Crown
Your teeth are covered by outer layers of enamel which protect the underlying structure. Unfortunately, this enamel cannot regrow itself when heavily damaged. A lifetime of wear and tear, physical trauma, and decay may require a restorative solution to keep your smile strong. At our Riverside, CA dental practice, we can provide permanent support to your damaged teeth through the placement of a custom dental crown and other services that simulate the appearance of your natural material.

Remove Plaque With Regular Cleaning
The fight for proper oral hygiene begins at home, but we maintain it through regular trips to the dentist. In general, two appointments per year allow you to prevent the buildup of plaque and tartar that contributes to tooth decay. Your dental hygienist will review the efforts of your daily brushing and flossing and perform a gentle cleaning, then the dentist will inspect the current health of your teeth and gums. This examination can identify further issues and recommended treatments when necessary At our Riverside, CA dentist’s office, we stress the importance of standard checkups and cleanings to prevent unsightly decay.

Treating Your Discolored Smile
Dental discoloration is something that can rob a person of more than just a confident smile. Enamel stains create a perception that your teeth are not healthy. They can also age you in ways that make you self-conscious.

Fortunately, this is a problem that your Riverside, CA dental office can address. Whether your issue is with teeth stains or something wrong with your tooth structure, we can pursue effective care and renew your confidence in how you look! (more…)
How Flossing Prevents Gingivitis
The prevention of gingivitis effectively protects you against more than you might realize. When your gums are in poor health, there is a risk for the initial infection to worsen to the point where it becomes a lasting problem. This can lead to the spread of bacteria to different parts of the body, and it can also result in tissue damage weakening the support that your teeth depend on to remain in position. Our Riverside, CA dentist’s office is prepared to help patients protect themselves against this issue. In addition to supplying in-office preventive services, we can provide guidance to help you improve your home care routine. One important form of support is through guidance on flossing. When done correctly, this is a habit that will keep you safe from the accumulation of harmful microbes that can make their way under your gums and create problems. (more…)
How Do Crowns Protect Teeth?
When you have problems with your oral health, it is important that you make treatment a priority. The longer you spend not addressing trouble with a cavity or injury, the more harm you can ultimately experience. During your restorative treatment, your Temecula, CA dentist will focus on more than just the removal of damaged and/or infected tissues. You will also need to receive permanent support, as our enamel is not able to naturally regrow when these kinds of issues arise and demand in-office care. One way to provide it is through the placement of a custom dental crown. Whether you receive a full crown or a partial one, we will see to it that your smile maintains its natural appearance, just as we can see to it that you are still able to bite and chew in a way that feels natural and comfortable.

Goals For Cosmetic Bonding Work
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!

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. Letting these issues continue unaddressed means more discomfort, as well as the onset of more frequent headaches, and it can also lead to the start of a destructive teeth grinding habit. 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…)
