Protecting Your Smile From Nightly Teeth Grinding Issues
There are several actions you can – and should – take if you want to preserve your smile through the years. In addition to protecting yourself against dental decay, you should be concerned about enamel erosion.

At our Corona, CA dentist’s office, we are prepared to protect you against this habit by providing a custom oral appliance to wear during the night. We can also help by providing treatment options that can address the cosmetic and oral health impact of nightly grinding and clenching. (more…)

Did you have to undergo treatment for tooth decay at your last dental exam? Did you receive any recent warnings about gingivitis?

Permanently Restoring A Broken Tooth
Our teeth are strong enough to withstand considerable bite forces, which helps us avoid dental health trouble even as we bite and chew through tougher foods. However, “tough” substances like enamel can still break. If you find yourself with a chipped, cracked, or otherwise broken tooth, know that our Temecula, CA dentist’s office can help you. After an evaluation, we can determine if you might need restorative dental work, or if we can proceed with a more conservative cosmetic dental procedure. In either scenario, we can do work that ensures you will have renewed confidence in your appearance, and that you can still confidently bite and chew without discomfort or the risk of further harm.

When Should My Wisdom Teeth Be Removed?
Under most circumstances, our goal during restorative dental work is to resolve a problem while preserving your full smile. However, when it comes to wisdom teeth, extraction is typically recommended. Providing this service helps by removing teeth you do not have space to keep. If they are not removed in time, these teeth, also known as third molars, can become impacted, crowd neighboring teeth, and generally cause pain and sensitivity issues. Our Riverside, CA dental practice is ready to safely extract these teeth so that they do not create any unwelcome oral health complications. (more…)
