In many ways, our oral health care needs do not change as we grow older. Good dental hygiene remains valuable, as the right habits stop the accumulation of bacteria and food debris from causing trouble with cavities. These efforts, combined with regular dental checkups, also help preserve the attractive appearance of teeth and protect our gums from infection. With that said, our needs from the dentist can change through the years, particularly as we pass from childhood to adulthood. Kids need help to learn about what good oral hygiene involves, and they need guidance to learn how they can effectively protect themselves against different dental threats. At our Riverside, CA dental practice, we provide pediatric dental services that tend to the needs of younger patients effectively. Because we provide this support as well as care for adults, we can make sure that all of the people in your household, including you, have the right oral health support on an ongoing basis. (more…)

Exams Provide Timely Oral Health Warnings
You may not realize that a cavity has formed until it grows enough to do serious damage to your tooth structure.

Our Temecula, CA dentist’s office provides many important benefits to patients who regularly arrange dental exams and cleanings.

Can A Crown Protect Your Tooth?
If you need restorative dental work, it is important that you have the right support after the trouble with your tooth is addressed.

Our Corona, CA dentist’s office is prepared to help patients in these situations. With the custom crown that you receive, you can feel comfortable with your appearance, and you can remain confident that you are able to bite and chew without difficulty.

Booking Routine Teeth Cleanings
How can you make sure you remain safe from cavities? Is brushing and flossing on a consistent basis sufficient for protecting your smile, or are there more steps you should take to prevent problems? If you want to avoid trouble with cavities and other problems, you should make time to see your dentist for regular preventive exams and teeth cleanings. Cleanings provide an important extra degree of support for your health by removing harmful tartar as well as plaque, and by tending to areas that are harder for you to reach. Our Riverside, CA dentist’s office is here to help you avoid difficulties with your oral health, and we can also provide support if problems are already present and require treatment.

When Wisdom Teeth Become A Problem
Worsening problems with pain near your jaw, or a feeling of pressure against your molars, can be a warning that your wisdom teeth are starting to erupt. Unfortunately, many of us are not able to accommodate these teeth, also known as third molars, simply because we lack space in our mouths for them. If they are not extracted in time, they can shift and erupt improperly, which can cause considerable discomfort and put your oral health at risk. Your Riverside, CA dentist’s office is prepared to help if you have trouble with your wisdom teeth. Remember that when you regularly attend dental exams, complications from the eruption of third molars can be avoided, as we can assess when they should be removed. (more…)
