While the term “root canal” may instill fear in dental patients, the reality is that dental technology has advanced tremendously in recent years, giving you the opportunity to have a root canal with minimal discomfort. Your Newport Beach dentist will guide you through every step of the procedure, ensuring you are comfortable and relaxed throughout your entire visit. A root canal is simply the removal of infected pulp from your tooth, which can ensure that you do not lose the tooth. With local anesthesia and modern dentistry techniques, your appointment will go very smoothly. Once the pulp is removed, your tooth will usually require either a filling or crown, though neither one should be cause to worry—your dentist will make sure that you are comfortable through this process, as well. Typically, your complete root canal can be done in just one appointment, so it will not take a very long time. It’s important to schedule your root canal right away. Delaying this vital treatment can result in a serious infection, which can affect the surrounding teeth and will require more significant treatment. If left unchecked, you may also be at risk for infections caused by bacteria entering your bloodstream. Your Newport Beach dentist will make sure that you understand exactly what to expect from your appointment and the following days. You will also get the chance to discuss different anesthesia treatments and relaxation techniques that will help you get through the experience of having a root canal with little discomfort or...

If you have unhealthy teeth or you have been living with a partial plate, you know that you do not even eat like you want to because you are afraid that something worse will happen to your smile.

Dr. Kurt Schneider is an Orange County dental implants expert, restoring a comfortable and functional natural appearance of real teeth. Dental implants are one of the most important recent advances in modern dentistry. A dental implant is a small titanium cylinder that is surgically placed into the upper or lower jawbone, serving as a root substitute for a tooth. These implants fuse to your jawbone over time and posts are attached which serve as anchors for the replacement teeth, restoring function. While the entire duration of the process takes six to eight months and requires several procedures, Dr. Schneider’s results are amazing and this process very rarely interferes with daily life. This is an excellent alternative to dentures or partials for those who are missing some or all of their teeth. Your natural smile can be restored through this state of the art process and Dr. Schneider and his team will be with your every step of the way.

For people looking for Orange County dental implants, one of the most pressing questions is whether or not the implants are permanent. After all, why not just get a plate or a partial if Orange county dental implants aren’t permanent? For the most part, dental implants are considered to be permanent. Otherwise, other temporary solutions would be offered. Implants are permanent because they actually fuse to the jaw bone. You don’t take them out to clean them or anything like that. They are treated just as you would treat your normal teeth. The only difference is that it takes a couple of months for the implants to fuse to the jawbone. In the meantime, you can still wear your partial or full plate so no one will even know you had an implant. And when you use professional services like the ones we offer, even after the tooth is in place people won’t know that you had an implant...
