The effective management of your oral health means protecting more than just your teeth. It is hard to overstate the importance of preserving your healthy gums. If you do not take care of these tissues, you can have a more difficult time preserving your full smile, and complications from an infection can have a negative effect on your overall well-being. Our Santa Monica, CA dentist’s office is here to help you avoid potential complications with your periodontal health. In addition to providing protection, including services that carefully clean the roots of your teeth with laser technology, we have an on-site periodontist who can work with you if you require advanced support.

Digital Scanning And Clear Aligners
What can you look forward to at the end of your treatment with Invisalign clear aligners?

At our Santa Monica, CA dentist’s office, we can recommend this treatment to patients who are self-conscious about their appearance because of malocclusion. In addition to looking forward to the end of your treatment, you can look forward to a more pleasant experience at the beginning, as we rely on digital imaging technology as an alternative to taking manual impressions of your teeth and bite structure.
