School is back in session and that means football season is here, too. Whether your child is a football player for their school’s team, or you play sports yourself, it’s important that you take preventive measures against injuries during practices and games. Your team at Riverside Dental Group in CA offers pro-form mouthguards that fit precisely and offer protection from concussions, injuries, broken teeth, and more. These can be used for players involved in football, soccer, hockey, and many other sports.
Time for Your Next Biannual Checkup?
As the weather starts to cool off a little bit, you might have a little more free time, especially if your kids have gone back to school. If you suddenly find yourself with some extra space in your schedule, use it in a proactive and healthy way by scheduling your next biannual checkup at the dentist. Like the name implies, these visits are necessary at least twice a year, but always defer to the schedule given to you by your dentist. They know what you need and when you need it.
Here at Riverside Dental Group, we understand the value of preventive dental care. That’s why we give you helpful reminders to keep up with your biannual checkups, and we mean it when we say that these are important. When you wait to visit the dentist, your oral health responsibility is yours alone, and that can spell some real problems for you and your smile. To find out more about our team, give us a call at one of our six conveniently located clinics!
A Checkup For The Whole Family
If it is time for your little one’s next dental appointment, make sure that you are up to date, as well. Most people need these appointments every six months, and for some, an accelerated schedule of treatment is necessary to keep things on the right track. But, if you or your child have not been in to the dental office for a cleaning and examination yet in 2024, then you are running behind. Their checkups are a vital part of their oral health journey!
At Riverside Dental Group, we help people to maintain their smiles through consistent checkups with their dentist. One way that parents have started to see an advantage is through the scheduling of combined family checkups, helping each member to receive dedicate care in just one trip. If this sounds like something that could benefit you, talk to our office about setting up a time to talk about their teeth.
Experience An Invisalign® Smile
When you look in the mirror, do you wish that you could see a more attractive smile in the mirror? For many people, alignment issues are a daily struggle, yet they avoid treatment due to the intrusion of traditional orthodontics, particularly bracketed braces. If this sounds like you, talk to your dentist about whether there is a different, more innovative way. Invisalign® helps in a different way than traditional braces, using a progressive set of clear aligners to shift the location of teeth rather than brackets and wires.
At our Riverside Dental Group locations, we offer clear aligner therapy in order to help our patients experience the smile that they deserve in a quieter, less intrusive way. Rather than relying on braces, we can help you to gently (yet effectively) shift the location of your teeth along your oral ridge without sharing your secret with the rest of the world. Simply wear your clear aligners throughout the day and start to work on your treatment. As you reach nearer to your smile goals, swap out your aligner trays for a new set and carry on with your care!
Focusing On Your Gum Health
Your smile is about more than just your teeth, and if you have only been focusing on them, then it is time to think about making some changes. Without strong and healthy gums, you could have a tough time keeping your smile at the level that you need. Plaque and tartar accumulation can happen at and even beneath your gumline, leading to inflammation and infection that can really put you at risk. Periodontal disease is the leading cause of adult tooth loss, so it is vital to keep up with your gum health at all times.
Here at Riverside Dental Group, we help people to maintain and improve their smiles with effective dentistry from a trusted team. If you have started to notice redness or swelling along your gumline, then make an effort and schedule an appointment with our team. We can help you to understand what is going on within your mouth, as well as ways to improve your gum health through consistent maintenance and potentially, some additional periodontal services.

Lost A Tooth? Ask About Dental Implants
Your smile plays a huge role in your everyday life. This means that when you lose a piece of it, it can really hold you back in your ability to enjoy your day. You depend on your smile for every first impression you make, and if the first thing you show them is an unsightly gap, then it can become a real issue. Enjoying the foods you love can also be difficult when you struggle to chew, so there are multiple ways that tooth loss can impact your daily life. Dental implants could be your solution, so reach out to a trusted oral health professional about your options.
At Riverside Dental Group, we help people to regain their confidence in their smile after losing one or more of their natural teeth. Dental implants are quickly becoming a favorite method of prosthodontic repair for a variety of reasons, and we are ready to help you understand their advantages. This approach uses a sturdy titanium implant post to mount a new prosthetic tooth, giving you a strong connection between your replacement solution and the bone tissue within your jaw.

Whiten Your Teeth With a Professional
If you have seen all those over-the-counter products at your local supermarket or drugstore, you might feel that these are safe for your smile. While these are designed for use by the general public, they do not come with a cleaning and examination, so you cannot know for certain whether these are right for you. So, when you want to whiten your teeth, take the time to talk to your dentist about your options. This can help you to avoid wasting time with treatments that may be ineffective or damaging.
At Riverside Dental Group, we help people to learn to love their smiles. Sometimes, that means making a little effort to improve the appearance of their teeth, and that’s why we offer quality cosmetic teeth whitening treatment with a professional twist. By working alongside your dentist to remove those unsightly stains, you give yourself the gift of information. This way, you can understand what is causing your dental discoloration before you make any changes on your own. To find out more about your teeth whitening options, give our front desk a call today!
Time For Your Next Biannual Checkup?
Your appointments with the dentist make a real difference in your ability to keep yourself safe. Common dental conditions like tooth decay and periodontal disease can occur when you are not keeping up with your smile in the way that you need, and without your routine visits, you might not even know that you are falling short. Most people require a biannual checkup and cleaning twice each year, but some can require an extra level of attention to their oral health. The important thing is to talk to your provider about your schedule and make a point to follow through with your appointments.
At Riverside Dental Group, we understand the value of positive prevention. If you are ready to renew your focus on your oral health, we’re here for it. Keeping your smile clean is a big part of keeping your smile safe, and with your biannual visits, you can experience a fresher smile for both your oral health and a brighter day. To find out more about the advantages of sticking to your treatment schedule, call our front office today!
Experiencing A Sleep Disorder?
If you are struggling with your sleep, then it may be time to talk to a trusted oral health team about whether you are experiencing a common sleep disorder. Two of the five most common of these relate to the structures of your head and neck, and when they occur, they can really hold you back. You depend on your rest in order to make it through the day, and if you are tossing and turning all night, it could prevent you from receiving the downtime that you need.
At Riverside Dental Group, we help people to maintain and improve their oral health, and we can help you to understand what is going on. Obstructive sleep apnea is a condition where the tissue of the throat makes contact during sleep, preventing patients from having full and complete breaths during rest. Bruxism is another common oral health-related sleep disorder that happens when you grind your teeth during sleep, and this can cause serious changes to the appearance of your teeth, as well as your ability to keep them safe. To find out more about oral appliance therapy for oral health-related sleep disorders, call us today!
Dental Implants Provide A Strong Connection
While prosthodontists have been able to create beautiful, lifelike prosthetic teeth for decades, the tough part has always been finding a way to connect them to the jaw. In dental bridges, this is achieved by relying on the teeth on either side of the gap; dentures often use messy adhesives to stay in place. While these are generally effective, there may be times when you would like something a little tougher. Dental implants do that by providing a strong connection directly to the bone tissue within the jaw.
At Riverside Dental Group, we know the value of a quality smile. That’s why we dedicate ourselves to helping people in our community to renew their oral health and appearance after losing one or more of their natural teeth. With dental implants, there is a solution that is available for all type of teeth; this option is even being used in the creation of implant-retained dentures, which can help you to experience the same strong connection in a whole mouth restoration. To find out more about the advantages of dental implants, call our office today!
