Oral Cancer Screening Mar Vista

Posted on June 25, 2020 by Pasha Dental Group

The Oral Cancer Foundation estimates that 43,000 people or more will be diagnosed with oral cancer each year. Here at Pasha Dental Group, we offer oral cancer screenings in Mar Vista to detect signs of oral cancer or precancerous conditions inside a patient’s mouth.

What to Expect From An Oral Cancer Screening

For patients who present a high risk for oral cancer, the dentist will recommend an oral cancer screening during a routine exam to determine if any cancer or precancerous lesions are present. We understand the anxiety and uncertainty patients may experience before or during an oral cancer screening. Our dentist takes great care in explaining the process and what a patient can expect during the exam.

In general, our dentist will examine a patient’s mouth for white or red patches or mouth sores. He will also feel the tissue in a patient’s mouth for lumps or abnormalities. If a patient wears dentures, they will need to be removed to examine the mouth properly.

Schedule An Oral Cancer Screening Mar Vista

If you think your lifestyle may lead to oral cancer, please contact our office to request a consultation to find out if oral cancer screening is right for you. Our goal is to help patients in Beverly Hills, Los Angeles, and Mar Vista improve their oral health and confident smiles for a lifetime.

Best Gumline Sculpting Mar Vista

Posted on June 13, 2020 by Pasha Dental Group

Are you concerned about your gumline? Is it affecting your oral health? Then come to Pasha Dental Group for the best gumline sculpting procedure in Mar Vista. Poor oral health due to gumline issues can result in the formation of deep gum pockets due to improper tooth brushing and the accumulation of calculus and plaque. Common aesthetic problems that can be corrected by gumline sculpting include gummy smile (excessive gingival display), uneven (asymmetrical) gingival contours, the loss of papillae (small amounts of gum tissue between your teeth) and exposed root surfaces.

What Is Gumline Sculpting?

Gumline sculpting is a minor, in-office procedure that typically requires only one visit. After a local anesthetic is applied to the gums, a soft tissue laser is used to trim away, re-contour and seal the excess gum tissue. There is only minor discomfort and no bleeding or stitches are involved.

More commonly, the procedure to reduce tissue and bone requires more time and stitches, yet it creates no pain.

Do you have concerns about your gumline? Does your gumline appearance affect the way you smile or interact with others? If so, call our office to learn more about our gumline sculpting procedure and how we can assist you with all your dental care needs.

At Pasha Dental Group we specialize in General, Cosmetic and Family Dentistry in Los Angeles (near Mar Vista). Dr. Nazli Majd aims to make your visit as comfortable as possible, feel free to make an appointment online today.

Best Composite Fillings Mar Vista

Posted on June 10, 2020 by Pasha Dental Group

When it comes to cosmetic dentistry, you’ll find the best composite fillings in Mar Vista, at Pasha Dental Group. One of the most popular procedures we carry out is fitting composite (white) fillings. Patients choose this treatment to either revive a beautiful smile that’s been lost due to cavities or to replace unsightly amalgam (silver colored) fillings. Aside from bringing back a natural-looking smile, there are many other benefits that white fillings have over their counterparts.

Advances in modern dental materials and techniques have led to the increased use of composite fillings to keep a patient’s smile looking bright and natural after a cavity. The material used for the composite mixture is tooth-colored and bond adhesively to a patient’s tooth. A benefit of composite fillings is that they require less of the unhealthy part of the tooth to be removed to seal to the tooth.

Once the decay is removed, an adhesive is placed on the tooth followed by thin layers of the composite. Our dentist uses a special light to cure or harden in less than a minute. Though the curing process is short, the overall process for composite fillings may take longer than fillers made from other materials because the tooth needs to be completely dry for the composite to properly bond to it. Patients find the process to be well worth the wait in order to keep a natural and fresh-looking smile.

Patients prefer the natural look and feel of composite fillings that last for an extended period of time; however, composite (tooth-colored) fillings are most beneficial for patients who have experienced minor tooth damage or decay. It is our desire to restore patients teeth with a natural look whenever possible as we understand how a patient’s smile affects his/her life.

Patients are encouraged to brush, floss, and rinse with mouth wash regularly to help prevent cavities over time. Ultimately, the brightest, natural-looking smile is a cavity-free smile.

If you feel you may be a candidate for composite (tooth-colored) fillings, please contact our office to schedule an appointment. We look forward to the opportunity to assist you with restoring your bright, natural-looking smile for long term oral health.

Pasha Dental Inlays/Onlays

Posted on May 30, 2020 by Pasha Dental Group

When a tooth suffers damage that is too extensive to be treated with a simple filling, but not extensive enough to need a full-coverage crown, Pasha Dental may recommend inlays or onlays. An inlay or an onlay is the best option for restoring the tooth

What Are Inlays And Onlays?

Both inlays and onlays are considered “indirect” fillings, meaning that they are fabricated outside the mouth (generally at a dental laboratory), and then bonded to the tooth. This is in contrast to a “direct” filling, which is applied directly to the cavity during a single office visit.

An indirect filling is considered an “inlay” when it fits within the little points or “cusps” of a back (premolar or molar) tooth. It is an “onlay” if it covers one or more of these cusps. Either way, the procedure for placing an inlay or onlay is the same.

The Benefits on Inlays and Onlays

Composite materials tend to shrink, and if the size of the cavity is too large that shrinkage can lead to severe nerves damage, and eventually a Root Canal.

To avoid unnecessary Root Canals, and to conserve more tooth structure. We treat teeth indirectly with bonded inlays / onlays.

Inlays/Onlays are indirect restorations using Emax (type of material we use) fillings that our laboratory makes based on your tooth impression. Then we bond it to your tooth with a composite.
