In addition to matching the appearance of your healthy tooth, this treatment approach will provide long-term protection, as this resin material can actually bond with your surrounding enamel to offer remarkable support.

Capping Vulnerable Teeth With Custom Crowns
A cavity or dental injury can cause significant trouble for your oral health.

Our practice can craft a crown to fit over your tooth, and we can even ensure that it matches your enamel in order to preserve your smile!

Let’s Talk About Teeth Whitening Treatment
Is it time for you to say something to your dentist about your interest in teeth whitening treatment? As you put off this discussion, more stains from different foods and drinks can gather on your enamel.

Fortunately, your Moreno Valley, CA dentist can offer solutions that make a bigger impact on the way you look. We offer both in-office and at-home procedures for patients who are bothered by the color of their teeth. We also offer additional cosmetic services, which can help with discoloration and other problems that may affect how you look. (more…)
When A Dental Problem Demands A Root Canal
Dental problems should not be taken lightly. One reason for this is that an issue like dental decay will continue to worsen until you see your dentist for the appropriate restorative treatment. Eventually, a problem with decay can become even more serious as bacteria make their way to the pulp, the central chamber of the tooth, at which point you can experience alarming discomfort and sensitivity issues. Our Riverside, CA dentist’s office can make sure that this problem is addressed without removing the tooth by performing a root canal. Through this procedure, we can stop a problem with an advanced cavity or internal damage from an injury. Once complete, we will provide a custom dental crown to make sure that the tooth remains safe.

To make this care more accessible, we want patients to know that they have access to our services during dental emergencies.

3 Issues We Can Address With Custom Oral Guards
A custom-made oral guard can help you manage an active problem, prevent future troubles, or protect your smile during activities where you are more likely to suffer dental damage. While some over the counter guards are available to address different concerns, a one-size-fits-all approach can leave you feeling poorly served. Instead, tell your Temecula, CA dentist about an issue you are having that might require the use of a custom appliance. We can recommend that patients wear guards to help with nightly teeth grinding and clenching, or as a way to help address TMJ disorder. After you receive your appliance, you can start wearing it when you rest in order to reduce pain, or protect yourself against the harm done by bruxism. For people who engage in sports, we can provide custom mouthguards that can be relied on to more comfortably stay in place and keep providing protection. (more…)
