For over five years, Culver City Family Dentistry has served people in the Los Angeles area and provided a wide selection of dental services. A small, private dental office that emphasizes patient comfort and safety, the dental professionals promote discussion with patents in order to provide a personalized experience that ensures quality care and maintenance. Operated by Dr. Kevin Taheri, a dentist with over 15 years in the industry, and his team, Culver City Family Dentistry advocates a preventative approach to dental and oral healthcare.
Promoting routine checkups and cleanings, Culver City Family Dentistry uses the visits to record patients’ conditions in order to prevent or delay progression of periodontal disease. Cleanings consist of removing soft and hard deposits such as plaque, tartar, stains, and calculus from the teeth. The frequency of visits depends on the health of an individual’s teeth and gums, and Dr. Kevin Taheri recommends healthy patients have a cleaning at least once a year. For patients at risk of periodontal disease due to tobacco use, age, oral hygiene practice, or other conditions, cleanings are encouraged more often. Culver City Family Dentistry professionals assist patients in determining the desired frequency of cleanings.
Implementing the most advanced technologies and practices, Culver City Family Dentistry provides restorative dentistry services that yield a more natural appearance. For instance, gold and silver fillings were formerly used to repair teeth, but Culver City Family Dentistry has implemented a composite known as white fillings. White fillings offer a more realistic and natural look while also repairing the tooth. Made of a quartz resin that possesses a light-sensitive agent, the cured composites are bonded in one visit.
