General Dentistry in Corona, CA

"

It is crucial to maintain healthy teeth and gums, not just for your oral health, but because what happens in your mouth has a direct impact on your overall health and well-being. Unfortunately, many people don’t make oral healthcare like dental exams and cleanings a priority.

At Dental Care of Corona, we want to help you understand why these routine appointments are so important and how they benefit you. We offer comprehensive general dentistry to help you achieve and maintain a healthy smile, and it starts with your preventive dental exams.

It makes all the difference when you have a trusted dentist in Corona you can rely on. Here are some of the key advantages you'll enjoy.

The Importance of Preventive Dental Exams

A laughing couple leaning against a wall | dentist Corona, CAIf you avoid dental exams because you worry about what your dentist will find, think of them as a fact-finding mission because they are as much about prevention as they are detection.

If you develop an issue like cavities or gum disease, we offer tooth fillings, dental crowns, and periodontal treatment. However, we can spare you a lot of time, expense, and discomfort by preventing these problems or detecting them in their earliest stages.

What to Expect During a Dental Exam

First, our Corona general dentist will perform a visual exam to look for cavities and decay and evaluate existing dental work. We will also check your dental bite and look for signs of dental wear that may indicate bruxism or TMJ problems. Oral cancer affects adults of all ages, so every appointment includes a screening.

Current x-rays allow us to treat you appropriately, so we may recommend a new set, depending on how old yours are. Our dentists use intraoral cameras to show you what’s happening with your teeth and gum and then save the still images in your digital patient record.

Frequently Asked Questions

It depends on what type of cleaning you need, but at Dental Care of Corona, we offer a new patient special of $195 that includes your regular cleaning and a dental exam, and any necessary x-rays. 

Your teeth cleanings and dental exams should occur every six months, or as recommended by our Corona dentists. Staying current with these appointments is one of the most important things you can do for your family’s oral health.

Seeing you every six months means we can treat small problems like cavities before they develop into serious issues that may be costly or complex to treat. We can also check on existing dental work like crowns, bridges, and veneers to ensure they are in good shape.

Teeth cleanings every six months allow our hygienists to remove the plaque and tartar buildup from your teeth. Without routine dental cleanings to remove these bacteria-filled substances, you can easily develop gingivitis that takes a toll on your oral health.

If we do detect cavities or gum disease, our dentists can take prompt steps to resolve them. Treating gum disease is crucial as studies have proven that it can affect your overall health and well-being.

Our tooth-colored fillings are highly aesthetic and durable, so you can enjoy eating, chewing, and socializing with enhanced comfort and ease. 

What to Expect at Your Dental Filling 

A tooth filling at Dental Care of Corona typically consists of the following:

  1. Your dentist ensures you are comfortable and relaxed before the treatment. 
  2. They desensitize your mouth to make sure you don't experience pain or discomfort.
  3. Your dentist gently cleans the tooth, meticulously removing all signs of decay. 
  4. They fill the tooth with a tooth-colored composite resin that matches the shade of your surrounding natural teeth. 
  5. You and your dentist make sure the filling looks great and feels comfortable. 
  6. Your dentist polishes the tooth to guarantee an organic luster. 

If you have a cavity, please don't let it progress and damage your smile. Your dentists at Dental Care of Corona can help you attain optimal oral health and a stunning, decay-free grin.

General Dentistry Technology

AI Technology (How It Improves Patient Care)

AI technology is an advanced system that aids in diagnostics and helps set analytic standards. It is a bit like a second opinion for your dentist without seeking another dentist. It also provides a thorough analysis that complements your Corona dentist’s expertise.

Advanced Dental Technology in Corona, CA

AI technology improves patient care through:  

  • Clinical calibration or a thorough analysis of all possible diagnoses.
  • Practitioner performance or an assessment of all possible treatments measured against the dentist's assessment.
  • Patient participation or the ability to educate and clearly present oral health issues and treatments to patients.
  • Disease detection or proactively looking at older radiographs to predict or assess potential issues earlier or in the future.

This technology helps us better serve our valued patients and set high standards for care. 

We Look forward to Welcoming Your Family!
