Our Dental Services
We are pleased to offer a number of dental services in Santa Monica, CA and the surrounding local area.
Preventative Care
​Prevention is the cornerstone of our dental philosophy.
Exams and digital X-rays
Routine dental exams, x-rays, and oral cancer screenings are vital to ensuring long-term oral health. Our expertly trained doctors are adept at detecting potential problems before they start. Make sure you are having routine exams to prevent dental decay, infections, and pain today!
Cleanings
Prevention is the best, most cost-effective, and pain-free way to create long-term dental health. By visiting your dental hygienist 2-4 times per year (everyone’s needs are different ), you are investing in the future of your oral health. Your experienced dental hygienist is your champion of healthy gums. By ridding your mouth of plaque and tartar you are preventing many unwanted dental problems including bad breath, bleeding gums, bone loss, cavities, and even tooth loss.
Dental Emergencies
​When the unexpected happens, we’ve got you covered. Call us today to make an appointment:
Dental Trauma
We know how painful and scary a broken tooth may be. Whether your child fell off their skateboard, you encountered an unexpected rogue golf ball on the 18th hole, or you just accidentally tripped and fell up the stairs, we are here to help. In these cases, call us immediately and if possible keep the tooth submerged in milk.
Infection
Rarely, teeth may become infected and create what is called a dental abscess. This can result in painful swelling and bad tastes in your mouth. It is critical to call us immediately and be seen for an evaluation to get to the root of the problem (pun intended). Seriously though, we are here to help. Don’t hesitate to call.
Restorative Dentistry
​Restoring your smile back to the happier you.
White Fillings
We only use the latest and best composite resins. They are both durable and aesthetically pleasing. You won't know they are there.
Porcelain Crowns
At times a white filling is just not enough to ensure a tooth’s long-term health. Crowns correct weakened or badly decayed teeth with a predictable and long term solution.
Extractions and Implant Dentistry
When a tooth is severely broken down, decayed, or infected, it might not be restorable. In those rare instances, we are lucky to have dental implants as a solution. Dental implants are a predictable, long term option for missing teeth and we are happy to be able to provide this service.
Root Canals
Out of all the dental treatments, root canals have the most undeserving reputation. A root canal is used to prevent the loss of a badly decayed or infected tooth. With modern techniques and local anesthesia, root canal therapy is not what you expect.
