How We Help You Fight Tooth Decay

Posted

woman smiling outdoorsAre you staying on top of your scheduled visits to the dentist’s office? If it has been a while since your last visit, remember that regular checkups and examinations are one of your best tools for preventing, detecting, and treating tooth decay. Regular attendance means removing the bacterial deposits that lead to cavities as well as removing cavities before they expand in size and further erode your teeth. Your at-home brushing and flossing efforts remain your first line of defense, but when you attend an examination, your dentist can provide protection beyond the ability of your own tools. If plaque progresses to tartar deposits, you must rely on your dental team to properly address this buildup.

At your Moreno Valley, CA dental practice, we protect your teeth from the corrosive destruction of oral bacteria. When you visit us at least every six months, we clean the entire surface of your teeth to make sure no cavity-causing buildups remain. If we do find a cavity, we will remove it and provide a proper restoration to maintain the strength of your remaining healthy tooth!

A Therapy For Your Tooth Infection

Posted

When tooth decay or physical injury damages the protective layer of your tooth’s enamel, holes in its surface can allow oral bacteria to reach the inner pulp. Left untreated, this infection causes a painful inflammatory response and risks causing an abscess or spreading throughout other parts of your body such as your jaw.

Your Riverside, CA, dentist has years of experience helping treat the painful symptoms of a tooth infection. By visiting our practice, we can inspect your problem tooth and determine if root canal therapy is necessary to provide relief. This procedure can remove your bacterial infection and reduce your pain. Because a root canal permanently alters its structure, we can work with you to place a restoration that returns the function and appearance of your healthy natural tooth.

The Importance Of Healthy Gums

When it comes to oral health, your gums play a vital role in securing your smile. By practicing your hygiene routine each day, the same behaviors that clean your teeth help keep your gums free from disease. Using your toothbrush and floss to clean the deposits of plaque that cause tooth decay also protects your gingival tissues from bacterial infection. And when you combine these efforts with routine trips to the dentist’s office, you allow them to perform a professional evaluation of your efforts as well. This means that when your at-home practices fail to completely stop the spread of gum disease, your dentist can provide a reversal of the process when caught at its first stage. Do not wait for painful symptoms to begin attending the dentist. because preventing infection is preferable to ongoing treatment of one.

At your Riverside, CA, dentist’s office, we prioritize the importance of healthy gums whenever we see our patients. Semi-annual cleanings and examinations allow us to prevent, catch, and treat any possible cases of gum infection. (more…)

Stopping The Spread Of Dental Decay

Woman with curly hair arms crossed on grey backgroundHas it been a while since you last visited your dentist? While the idea of a general cleaning may not be the most exciting, regular checkup and examinations can help you prevent and treat the effects of tooth decay before they become severe. By establishing a semiannual visitation schedule, you will not have to wait until a painful toothache spurs an appointment. Although your at-home brushing and flossing form your primary method for removing cavity-forming bacteria, professional cleanings remove advanced deposits you cannot address on your own. If left on the surface, plaque and tartar damage your enamel by producing acidic erosion and creating holes that expose your tooth’s inner structure. This can lead to painful infection of the pulp and threaten your gum and jawbone health as well.

At your Riverside, CA, dental practice, we prefer being proactive rather than reactive when it comes to tooth decay! This means removing plaque and tartar every six months at your general appointments. When we do discover a cavity, prompt treatment can preserve as much of your healthy tooth as possible! (more…)

A Root Canal Can Relieve Infection

man experiencing severe toothacheWhen you experience a painful toothache that will not go away naturally, it can be a sign of an underlying problem that requires professional treatment. If decay or physical trauma exposes an opening in the protective layer of your tooth’s surface, oral bacteria can enter and infect its pulp. Without treatment, this infection even risks spreading into your jaw or other parts of your body.

At your Riverside, CA, dental practice, we provide reliable treatment for tooth infections in the form of root canal therapy. When you visit our office with painful symptoms, we can examine your tooth to determine if an infection is the cause. A root canal will remove the decaying material of your abscess and treat the inflammatory response that causes your pain by impacting your tooth’s nerves. Following your recovery, we can provide a restoration to return strength to your problem tooth and restore its natural appearance. (more…)
