At Sherman Oaks Dental, we use a variety of techniques to restore damaged teeth. Most Van Nuys dental clients are familiar with fillings. Traditional fillings are also called ‘direct restorations’ because they are applied to the tooth, shaped and polished in one visit.

Another type of filling is called an ‘indirect restorations‘ and is fabricated in a California dental lab. There are two types: inlays and onlays.

When a tooth needs more extensive dental restoration, a crown is often used. At Sherman Oaks Dental, we create strong, natural-looking crowns from a variety of materials.

What if the tooth is damaged beyond repair? There are a number of functional replacements for missing teeth. Dentures are not the only option.

Call 818-672-1288 to learn about the restoration options available. We have been improving smiles for Van Nuys and Burbank patients since 1989.

Whether the damage is caused by decay, injury, bite problems, or natural wear; Dr. Michael Bjornbak DDS will choose the best dental treatment plan for your tooth restoration needs. Sherman Oaks Dental is conveniently located at 4849 Van Nuys Boulevard, Suite 101, in Sherman Oaks, CA.

Periodontal disease in California is more common than you might think, and can be cured with varying degrees of treatment depending on the severity.

What is periodontal disease? According to this article on Wikipedia, periodontal disease is ‘the name of a collection of inflammatory diseases affecting the tissues that surround and support the teeth.’

Periodontal disease, more commonly called ‘gum disease’, is an inflammation or infection of the gums. Periodontal disease can be very painful in some extreme conditions, and can limit your ability to eat normally. In some cases, periodontal disease can affect your smile, and can create cosmetic concerns.

If left untreated, periodontal disease can cause irreversible damage. When caught early and treated, periodontal disease can be little more than an inconvenience. However the best policy is to practice good dental hygiene to keep periodontal disease at bay.

One of the best ways to avoid periodontal disease is to get a regular dental check up at your local Sherman Oaks dentist.

Give us a call at 818-672-1288 to schedule your next dental checkup; we look forward to seeing you.

Sherman Oaks Dental provides dentistry for child patients. Our dentistry for child patients is performed by our caring and professional staff and always takes into consideration the special circumstances that children require.

A little extra patience with our child patients is critical. We understand that going to the dentist can be a bit frightening for a child, so we make sure they are comfortable with their surroundings, and always invite mom or dad to join them in the room.

Dentistry for child patients requires more than just comfort, however. We take care to notice development patterns and watch for future trouble before it happens. We also teach proper hygiene for our child patients so that we can help you reinforce healthy habits that will produce strong, healthy and lasting teeth.

Dentistry for child patients is a big part of our practice here at Sherman Oaks Dental.

If you need dentistry for your child, give us a call: 818-672-1288
