Dental Cleaning / Periodontal Procedures

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.

Dental Inlays & Onlays

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.

Invisalign (Clear Braces)

Please visit https://invisalign.com/

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.

Teeth Whitening

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.
