Cosmetic Dentistry
Cosmetic dentistry beautifies your teeth and your smile. Modern cosmetic procedures range from basic color corrections to repairing or replacing broken or missing teeth. Even small steps can improve your overall appearance to boost your confidence and self-esteem dramatically. Cosmetic dentistry can give you a reason to smile!
Porcelain Veneers
Veneers are thin tooth-colored porcelain facings that fit snugly over teeth to cover stains or hide flaws, such as broken, cracked or misshapen teeth. Veneers can also straighten the appearance of crooked teeth.
Porcelain Crowns
Porcelain crowns are strong, aesthetically pleasing caps that are made to match the natural shape and color of the tooth it is replacing.
Tooth-Colored Fillings
Tooth-colored fillings blend in with the natural color of teeth so they are virtually invisible!
Tooth Whitening
Tooth whitening enhances the brightness of natural teeth. Several options are available including in-office treatments and take-home trays.
Invisalign Clear Orthodontics
Invisalign uses clear trays to reposition crooked or abnormally spaced teeth.
Cerec Same-Day Crowns
No messy impressions or annoying temporary crowns - get a new porcelain crown in just one visit!
General Dentistry
Whether routine services are required, such as professional cleanings and thorough oral exams; or more extensive work, such as dental extractions or root canal therapy, Dr. Meghan Toland will identify each patient’s individual dental needs and respond with the best treatment available. If she cannot provide a particular general dentistry service at her La Mesa dental office, she will call upon the assistance of one of her highly-trained specialists. She is guided at all times by the best interests of her patients!
Emergency Dentistry
If you are experiencing pain, swelling, a broken or lost tooth, or have any other dental emergency, call us right away so that we can help prevent it developing into a more serious issue!
Preventative Dentistry
Detecting and preventing oral health issues before they become problematic will not only save you time and money, but it will also help preserve your teeth for the rest of your life!
Gum Disease / Periodontics
Gum disease, also known as periodontal disease, is a bacterial infection of the gums and tissues that support your teeth. It needs to be treated consistently and aggressively in order to prevent gum, bone, and tooth loss.
Pediatric Dentistry
We see patients of all ages! It is important to bring your child to the dentist as soon as their first teeth erupt so that we can offer advice, make sure their growth is normal, and help make your child feel comfortable coming to the dental office.
Root Canals / Endodontics
A root canal saves a severely injured, cracked, or decayed tooth. If not treated promptly, pain or a tooth abscess can result.
Mouthguards
If you grind or clench your teeth, or participate in contact sports, it is important to protect your teeth from damage by wearing a mouthguard,
Sedation Dentistry
Many people are anxious about dental treatment. We offer several sedation options to help our patients relax.
Laser Dentistry
We used laser therapy to treat gum disease and perform other advanced procedures.
Oral Health Care
Routine dental checkups are vital to good oral hygiene and are the best way to detect problems at their earliest stages which saves unnecessary discomfort, time, and money.
Oral Surgery / Tooth Extractions
Wisdom teeth and teeth that cannot be fixed due to decay or fractures need to be taken out before they cause further harm to your overall health.
TMJ / TMD Treatment
TMJ disorders can cause pain and lack of function in the jaw joint and the facial muscles. It is important to diagnose and improve these conditions before they become debilitating.
Snoring / Sleep Apnea
Sleep is essential to your overall health and wellness. Sometimes, a bite appliance is a good option to help improve the quality of sleep.
Restorative Dentistry
Many people suffer from oral health problems such as tooth decay, gum disease, and missing teeth. Fortunately, our La Mesa dental office offers modern restorative dentistry techniques that provide the opportunity to restore these smiles to their optimal health and function!
Dental Crowns
A dental crown restores a tooth's shape, size, and strength by fully encasing the visible portion of your tooth.
Dental Implants
A dental implant replaces the roots of a lost tooth, and is a great way to replace missing teeth.
Dentures
Dentures are artificial, removable teeth set into plastic bases that rest directly on the gums and replace missing teeth.
Dental Fillings
A filling repairs and restores the surface of a tooth that has been damaged by decay, fracture, or wear.
Dental Bridges
A dental bridge uses the teeth on either side of a missing tooth to provide support for an artificial tooth that fills the space where the natural tooth is missing.
Inlays and Onlays
Inlays and onlays are a type of porcelain filling that are made to restore a larger portion of a broken or decayed tooth.
