Dentist Gardena

Healthy Smiles Premier Dental

Do you feel left out when others are displaying beautiful pearly white smiles? Do you have oral health issues, like gum disease or toothaches, and wish there was a dental practice that could solve your problem?

Fortunately, there are solutions to all your dental problems at Healthy Smiles Premier Dental. Visit us for a wonderful smile makeover to show off your natural beauty. We are a Gardena dentist that has it all.

Dental issues can range from annoying to serious, including cavities, cracked or decaying teeth, or gingivitis. Most of them are preventable by brushing and flossing twice a day, a good diet that avoids excessive sugar intake, and regular visits to the dentist for check-ups.

Still, some dental problems can sneak past even the most fastidious oral health routine. If you are in need of any of the treatments below, schedule an appointment with us immediately.

Oral Cancer Checkup

Oral cancer is a deadly disease affecting many thousands of people per year. One of the major risk factors for oral cancer is smoking, though HPV can also play a role. Signs and symptoms may include a sore or lump in your mouth that makes chewing difficult.

As a precautionary measure, make sure to come in for your oral cancer checkup regularly. The earlier we identify this disease, the easier it is to treat. In extreme cases, you may need a surgical operation to remove the growth.

Dental Implants

If you are missing teeth, this is the best permanent solution. Dental implants are artificial teeth that are attached to your jawbone. They function just like natural teeth and prevent your jawbone from deteriorating and the rest of your teeth from shifting around.

You may need a bone graft before receiving a dental implant if your jawbone isn’t strong enough to support the implant. Dental implant surgery is available at Healthy Smiles Premier Dental.

Cosmetic Dentistry

Are you interested in a smile makeover? Then cosmetic dentistry is what you need. This blanket term covers a range of treatments, including teeth whitening, veneers, tooth-colored fillings, and caps or crowns.

If your teeth are discolored, misaligned, or misshapen, then cosmetic dentistry can address these problems. The goal of cosmetic dentistry treatment is to make you look and feel your best.

Veneers

Veneers are ultrathin strips of resin, porcelain, or other materials that are bonded directly to the teeth. They give your teeth a beautiful white sheen, perfect for those dealing with discoloration. Be aware that the procedure is permanent and requires us to shave off a small portion of tooth enamel.

Your Gardena dentist will customize your veneers to blend in and enhance your teeth’s natural appearance.

Jaw Surgery

Your teeth are anchored to your jaw, and thus jaw surgery is within the purview of your dentist. Jaw surgery can involve operations to correct TMJ (temporomandibular joint) problems, malocclusion, and sleep apnea. It can also involve a bone graft for dental implants.

Corrective jaw surgery, also called orthognathic surgery, is performed by an oral and maxillofacial surgeon. You might be amazed at how much altering your jaw profile adds symmetry and definition to your facial structure.

Tooth Extraction

There are several reasons that you might need a tooth extraction. Relieving an overcrowded mouth, removing a decaying tooth, and wisdom teeth removal are all common operations.

Tooth extractions are painless procedures involving the use of anesthesia to numb the area around the tooth. Though a root canal can repair damaged teeth, consider getting the tooth removed if it’s still giving you trouble.

Cost of Dental Treatments

Treatment cost depends on a number of factors, including how many teeth are being treated, the specific procedures involved, and your dental insurance. We offer financing plans to make the payment process as smooth as possible.

At Healthy Smiles Premier Dental, we offer great dental treatments to residents of Gardena, Hawthorne, Lawndale, Torrance, and surrounding areas. We look forward to seeing you at your next appointment.
