A Healthy Smile Begins Here

Your General Dentistry Consultation

General dentistry has much more to do with your teeth than just brushing and flossing. Our dentists care about the health of your teeth. When your mouth is healthy, you are healthy.

During your initial check-up, our general dentists will assess your oral health and give you vital information about the status of your teeth and gums. From there, they will collaborate with you to set up routine check-ups and cleanings to fit your care needs. Set up an appointment for you or a family member through DDS Cloud at our Beverly Hills, Brentwood, or West Hollywood locations in Los Angeles.

The Importance of Oral Health

Our General Dentistry Services

DDS Cloud provides the following services in general dentistry:

Dental Hygiene

Gum disease, also called periodontitis, is an infection and inflammation of the gums, which support your teeth and cover the bones that hold them in place. Almost half of all adults over 30 have some kind of periodontitis. At DDS Cloud, our dental team is led by specialists who care about your and your family's oral health.

Your dental health depends on how well you brush your teeth twice a day for two minutes and floss daily. Talk to one of the dentists at DDS Cloud about how to properly brush and floss your teeth.

Tooth Extraction

Our offices usually perform a traditional (non-surgical) tooth extraction on unbroken teeth. A topical numbing cream may be used during non-surgical tooth extractions if needed. However, a broken tooth or other dental emergencies may require a more complex surgical extraction, which our dentists can also provide.

Fillings

Good dental hygiene and care will help you avoid needing fillings. But if you have a cavity, DDS Cloud will match you up with a dentist who can handle your particular needs. Fillings are constructed from various materials to safeguard the tooth against further decay and eliminate any sensitivity or pain brought on by the cavity.

The top five filling kinds are as follows:

  • Glass Ionomer
  • Porcelain
  • Amalgam
  • Cast Gold

It's critical to realize that fillings may not last a lifetime and may require replacement after six to ten years, depending on the filling utilized.

Frequently Asked Questions

Dental anxiety is common; we understand and are equipped to help you manage it. Every member of our staff is dedicated to ensuring that your time with us is relaxing and enjoyable. Protecting the integrity of your grin is a primary priority, and so is giving you the best possible service and treatment.

Keeping your teeth and gums healthy and free from illness or decay is one of our top priorities. Visits to the dentist for cleanings are recommended at least twice yearly; however, your dentist is the best person to advise you on how often you should go. To combat gum disease, regular dental visits are recommended.

X-ray exposure at the dentist only amounts to a minuscule amount (around 0.150 mSv for full mouth series, according to the American Dental Association website). Exposure to dental X-rays poses no health risks.

There is no reason to worry about the safety of fillings. Cavities can be treated with amalgam fillings, which are non-toxic, durable, and long-lasting. Silver, mercury, tin, and copper combine to form an amalgam, the metal used in dental fillings. (Amalgam fillings may also contain elements.) Amalgam is a durable and reliable material that performs admirably in humid conditions.

Composite fillings use plastic and glass powder to increase durability. Because of their white color, these fillings will not draw undue attention when placed in between your teeth. However, composite fillings are more expensive and don't last as long as amalgam ones.
