Preventive Teeth Cleaning

Regular preventive teeth cleanings are a great way to maintain a healthy, stunning smile. While daily brushing and flossing are the first steps to ensuring optimal dental health, a good oral hygiene regimen is not enough to combat common dental issues. 

Our dental hygienists use specialized dental tools to remove stubborn plaque and tartar that normal brushing alone can’t get rid of. Patients should undergo routine dental cleanings at least once every six months to remove bacteria and check for any signs of underlying issues.

Cavity Fillings

When you’re experiencing pain or discomfort due to a cavity, you need swift relief. If left untreated, a cavity can lead to further tooth decay that can affect your other teeth and overall oral health. That’s why Löberg Dental offers the latest in dental technology, which allows us to efficiently remove decay from a cavity. Once this is done, we fill the empty spot with a composite resin to restore your tooth’s look and function.

Dental Inlays

A dental inlay may be required if a cavity has led to extensive tooth decay. Our Laguna Hills dentist will use a composite resin to fill the empty cavity after removing the decayed tissue. Dental inlays are also effective in repairing chips or minor cracks. Our office is well-equipped to prepare and place a dental inlay in just one appointment to restore your teeth and protect your smile from further decay or damage. 

Dental Crowns

If your tooth has sustained severe damage or decay, your oral health may benefit from a customized dental crown restoration. Also known as tooth caps, dental crowns fit snugly over your tooth to restore its function and protect against further damage. This treatment can be used for cosmetic and restorative purposes. We can create your crown here at our Laguna Hills office on the same day as your initial appointment. 

Root Canal Therapy

Root canal treatments have earned a negative reputation due to outdated misperceptions that the procedure is painful and drawn out. In reality, root canal therapy helps relieve the pain that you may be experiencing due to a dental abscess or infection. The treatment is quick, easy, and effective at saving your natural tooth from extraction. In fact, most of our patients compare their root canal experience to that of getting a filling.

Wisdom Teeth

Wisdom teeth are the third molars that begin to appear in adulthood. For many patients, these teeth can become painful when they crowd other teeth, leading to other complications. Our dentists often recommend extraction to alleviate the discomfort of impacted wisdom teeth. We can safely and painlessly remove wisdom teeth to get your oral health back on track.
