Smile Dental Lakeside

New update from the California Dental Association: "A study in a recent CDA Journal concludes that oral hygiene interventions and periodontal and dental treatment have the potential to decrease the oral bacterial burden and the systemic inflammatory response and therefore could decrease the severity and risk of COVID-19 respiratory problems." https://www.cda.org//routine-dental-care-may-protect-again

Because a lot of you have asked for the interview, I have decided to post this. Hopefully we can convince our governor to help overcome this pandemic sooner rather than later Decidí publicar la entrevista debido a mucha gente pidiéndome. Ojalá y ayude a convencer a nuestro gobernador en poder superar esta pandemia lo más antes posible. #sandiego #covid19 #dentists #dentistas #covidvacccine #vc19

Smile Dental Lakeside is using the latest technology in Intra-Oral Scanning!! There are three general scenarios when dealing with cavities in a tooth: 1. Small Cavities: Drill out the decay and fill the cavity with composite (typically called a filling)... 2. Bigger Cavities: File down the decayed portion of the tooth, and then place a crown over the remaining healthy tooth 3. More decay than healthy tooth: Extract the tooth and replace it with an implant or bridge. For option #2, you may remember visits to the dentist when they took impressions of your teeth (using the putty-like substance in a mouth tray) and then sent those impressions to the dental lab, who would send back a crown for the dentist to place on your tooth. This process has been updated and improved with the advancement of dental technology. At Smile Dental Lakeside, we are using the Medit i500 Intra-Oral Scanner. This device produces more accurate scans, in turn producing longer-lasting crowns that usually fit on the first try. With up to ten microns (one micron = one-millionth of a meter) of a detailed scan, the crown will have a greater fit than standard impressions. This process is more eco-friendly than traditional impressions, as the scans are sent to the dental lab digitally. Your visit to Smile Dental will be faster without the impressions process and there is a faster turnaround for the crown, so it can be installed sooner, producing more accurate (better fit to your tooth) and longer-lasting crowns. Schedule an appointment today so we can clean your teeth, check for cavities, and any other dental issues that we can address for you. The sooner you come in, the better your results will be, as many dental issues are time-sensitive.

Another great smile, another happy patient! #yelp #baronacasino #elcajon #lakesidecalifornia #eastsandiego
