Dentist in Walnut

Our dentist in Walnut offers dental procedures to promote the health and appearance of a patient's mouth from teeth cleaning to removing gum disease producing plaque to the application of braces for proper teeth alignment.

General Dentistry
General dentistry is the practice maintaining the general dental health of a patient. Our dentist will work with the patient to create an individualized oral hygiene program to promote the best results in the appearance and function of the structures of the mouth. General dentistry procedures correct damage from dental disease and employ the use of preventative techniques to hinder their future development.

Cosmetic Dentistry
Cosmetic dentistry focuses on a patient's dental appearance. Common cosmetic procedures performed by our dentist in Walnut include teeth whitening for the removal of stains and natural tooth discoloration from age, bonding and veneers to correct shape and damage and inlays to fill missing structures of a damaged tooth.

Restorative Dentistry
Restorative dentistry procedures restore normal functioning to the mouth, such as speaking and eating, that is reduced due to damage or decay. Our dentist in Walnut uses techniques like dental bridges or dentures to replace missing teeth, crowns to cover and protect a damaged tooth and support the jaw and a root canal therapy to save an infected tooth from extraction. Though restorative dentistry concentrates on the function of the tooth, an improved appearance to the mouth accompanies the increased function.

Periodontic Dentistry
Periodontic dentistry is concerned with insuring the health of the gums and repairing any damage resulting from gum disease. Gum disease occurs when the bacteria in calculus, the hardened form of plaque, attacks the gums. Our dentist performs surgical and non-surgical procedures to correct gum tissue and bone damage from periodontal disease.

Orthodontic Dentistry
Orthodontic dentistry repairs misalignment of teeth that causes a reduction in a patient's dental appearance and function. The application of braces, used to correctly align a patient's teeth to fix conditions like underbite and crooked teeth, is the most well known orthodontic procedure, but our dentist in Walnut also offers products such as mouth guards and retainers to protect and correct the teeth.
