These are common general dental treatments we perform all the time. It turns out that if a person has a dental problem, it can probably be fixed with one of these treatments. If you are just wondering about what goes on at the dentist’s or you have a toothache, this page has you covered.
During a dental exam, we’ll thoroughly examine your teeth and gums in search of any potential oral problems. In some cases, we may also take X-rays. If we notice any problems, such as tooth decay, we’ll then recommend treatment options. If you have any conditions that don’t currently need treated, we’ll simply make a note of it for future observations. We’ll also provide oral hygiene instructions and suggestions to better take care of your teeth if you’re interested or if we feel that it would help you.
Teeth cleanings are yet another essential reason for why you should regularly visit your La Mesa dentist every six months. A professional teeth cleaning will improve your oral hygiene well beyond what you can get at your own home. During your visit with us, first, one of our dental hygienists will remove plaque from your teeth, especially in areas where your toothbrush isn’t able to reach, such as underneath the gum line. After that, we’ll perform the teeth cleaning with some extra protection after you leave our office.
Fillings are used to replace decayed or damaged tooth structure. Your holistic dentist utilizes bio-compatible white fillings, which are tooth-colored materials that are stronger, longer-lasting, and more aesthetically-pleasing for patients. These fillings will bond directly to the tooth and strengthen it by restoring most of its original shape. While the fillings are typically white, they can even be custom-colored to match the exact shade of your teeth to give you the most natural-looking smile possible!
Bridges are dental devices that can be used to cover over spaces that are left by missing teeth. Bridges won’t just make a smile look better, but they can prevent the shifting of teeth, fix bite problems, and ensure the strength and integrity of the surrounding teeth. There are a few different types of bridges that can be used:
Crowns are custom-made coverings, or ‘caps,’ that fit over an original tooth that’s severely decayed, damaged, or cracked. Our crowns are made of the least non toxic and the most durable material known as Zirconium. It creates beautiful long lasting natural looking teeth that will not release harmful toxins or cause “Galvanization” to occur which can disrupt brain signalling. Receiving a crown typically follows these steps:
After the procedure is completed, a patient should take good care of the crown in the same way that he or she would take care of any other teeth. After all, with proper care, a crown can last a lifetime!
One of the things that sets us apart from other La Mesa and El Cajon, CA cosmetic dentists is that we place a strong emphasis on holistic dentistry. If you’re unfamiliar with the term, holistic dentistry is a focus on a person’s entire body during dental care instead of just the mouth. We utilize bio-compatible whole body dentistry and think about how your dental condition and our treatment will affect your systemic health. We’re strong believers that a person’s oral health is deeply tied with his or her systemic health and with the help of our holistic dentistry, we’ll have both your mouth and your body feeling as good as ever!
