Simple, Surgical & some Wisdom Teeth

Teeth extractions are performed for various reasons, but most commonly to
remove teeth that are non-restorable due to extensive decay, periodontal disease or trauma.

There are times that we have to remove Wisdom teeth when they do not have enough room to erupt normally and are impacted causing pain & damages to adjacent teeth.

Our highly skilled & experience dentists at Torrance Smile Dental Care will perform most extractions under local anesthetic without having to worry about side affects of General Sedation. We use the latest techniques and anesthetic so you will feel the least minimal pain, if any, during extraction. Almost all patients say they only felt Pressure as the tooth was being removed and had no complain of pain.

The most common reason for a dental bone graft is to prevent bone loss following a tooth extraction. These are called “socket grafts” because the bone-graft material is inserted into the empty socket left by the extracted tooth.

Specifically, it is your alveolar ridge (along with periodontal tissue) that will shrink down in the months and years following tooth loss or tooth extraction.  A large portion of bone resorption takes place within 3 to 6 months of tooth removal.

At Torrance Smile Dental Care we offer Bone-graft to be placed at the time of extraction to prevent this bone loss. Bone grafting is painless and makes the post op less painful as it speeds up the healing process.

When the inside of your tooth (the pulp) becomes inflamed or infected as a result of deep decay, repeated dental procedures, faulty crowns or a crack or chip in the tooth, it’s necessary to have Endodontic or Root Canal Treatment done to save your tooth. Trauma to your tooth may also cause pulp damage even if the tooth has no visible chips or cracks. If pulp inflammation or infection is left untreated, it can cause severe pain or lead to an abscess. The other option than Root Canal is extraction and loss of tooth.

When you undergo a Root Canal Treatment, the inflamed or infected pulp is removed and the inside of the tooth is carefully cleaned and disinfected, then filled and sealed with a rubber-like material. Afterwards, the tooth is restored with a Crown or filling for protection and will continue to function like any other tooth.

Our expert & experienced dentists at Torrance Smile Dental Care help you maintain your natural smile, continue eating the foods you love and limit the need for ongoing dental work by performing your Root Canal Treatment with the least minimal pain possible. With proper care, most teeth that have had Root Canal Treatment can last a lifetime.

The Torrance Dental Association recommends visiting your dentist at least every six months for a routine checkup and cleaning. This helps prevent problems or catch them early, so they’re easier and less expensive to fix.

At Torrance Smile Dental Care we perform a comprehensive periodontal (Gum & Bone) exam, which are the foundation of your teeth, to make sure they are healthy & intact. In addition to losing your teeth due to untreated periodontal disease (gingivitis) it can cause multiple systemic conditions such as Diabetes, Heart Attack, Stroke and pregnancy issues.

We customize cleanings on the basis of your periodontal health. We utilize localized antibiotic (Arestin) along with subgingival irrigation of antimicrobial medicine in problem areas if necessary. Ultrasonic scalars are sometimes used to make the procedure more comfortable and effective as well.

You should contact our office to schedule an appointment for examination and proper Hygiene treatment before it’s too late and your teeth become loose.

A dental restoration or dental filling is a treatment to restore the function, integrity, and morphology of missing tooth structure resulting from caries or external trauma.

At Torrance Smile Dental Care we can help you replace a metal filling, broken or worn filling with the latest White natural color filling (Composite) to maintain a natural look. We use the latest technology and best materials available in the dental industry and our dental fillings are made to look natural while durable.

These are types of fillings that are not directly applied on the teeth but are instead prepared by a dental laboratory and then cemented to the tooth in the office. Inlays and Onlays are recommended for larger cavities or when there is insufficient tooth structure to support an amalgam or composite filling, but the tooth is not severely damaged enough to need a crown.

At Torrance Smile Dental Care we use the Strongest and most Cosmetic Inlay & Onlay materials like Zirconia & Special Porcelain which can last you beautifully for many years if properly taken care of.

If your teeth are spaced ,crowded or improperly lined up Invisalign Orthodontic Treatment can work wonders. Straight and properly aligned teeth not only look better, they’re also healthier, easier to keep clean, and can avoid jaw pain with improved bite.

Invisalign aligners are computer custom-made trays that are molded to the shape of your teeth, and they are removable for eating and brushing your teeth. Therefore your teeth will stay cleaner during the orthodontic treatment and less chance of getting cavities. The trays apply gentle pressure, and you replace them about every two weeks at home with new trays that are provided to continue the alignment process.

At Torrance Smile Dental Care our highly trained & certified Invisalign Providers are experts at moving  your teeth gently and safely for teens and adults sometimes in shorter time than regular metal braces. The sooner you start your treatment the faster your treatment will be. Some treatments can be completed in less than 6 months.

Whitening is often desirable when teeth become yellowed over time for many reasons, and can be achieved by changing the intrinsic or extrinsic color of the tooth enamel.

There are many products available to achieve the whitening effect. For whitening treatment to be successful, consult with the dental professionals at Torrance Smile Dental Care to correctly diagnose the type, intensity, and location of the tooth discoloration. Time exposure and the concentration of the bleaching compound determine the tooth whitening endpoint. It is important that your teeth are cavity free before performing this procedure otherwise you may cause non-reversible damage to your teeth.

Whitening your teeth helps you look younger and healthier and brightens your outlook as well. For a special occasion—or whenever it’s essential to look your best—a brighter smile can work wonders, and it’s so easy.
