How often should I see the dentist?

The American Dental Association recommends that most adults and children visit the dentist twice a year for a routine checkup and professional cleaning. However, if you have a history of gum disease, frequent cavities, or certain health conditions like diabetes, we may recommend visiting every three to four months to keep your smile healthy.

How can I prevent cavities?

The best way to prevent cavities is to maintain a strong daily oral hygiene routine. You should brush twice a day with fluoride toothpaste, floss daily to remove plaque between teeth, and limit sugary snacks and beverages. Visiting us every six months for a professional cleaning and exam is also crucial for stopping decay before it starts.

How much does professional teeth whitening cost?

Professional teeth whitening starts at $349 at our Sherman Oaks office.

Do I really need to pull my wisdom teeth?

Not always. If your wisdom teeth are fully erupted, healthy, and properly aligned, they may not need to be removed. However, if they are impacted, causing pain, crowding nearby teeth, or showing signs of decay, removal is usually recommended. We can evaluate your wisdom teeth during a checkup.

How important is flossing?

Flossing is essential for your oral health. Brushing alone only cleans about 60% of your tooth surfaces. Flossing removes food particles and plaque from between your teeth and along the gumline, helping to prevent cavities, bad breath, and gum disease.

Yes. We offer CareCredit and additional financing options to help make treatment more affordable.

At Riverside Dental Sherman Oaks, we design custom bridges that not only look great but also maintain the alignment and health of your remaining teeth — giving you a complete, functional smile once again.

What Is a Dental Bridge?

A dental bridge is a custom prosthetic that “bridges the gap” left by one or more missing teeth. It typically consists of:

Bridges can be made from porcelain, zirconia, or porcelain-fused-to-metal and are matched to your natural teeth for a seamless appearance.

When Is a Dental Bridge Needed?

You may be a good candidate for a bridge if you:

Are missing one or more consecutive teeth
Want a fixed (non-removable) solution
Have healthy teeth on either side of the gap
Are not a candidate for a dental implant

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Had a chipped front tooth and came to Dr. Ruben Soleymani — he did an amazing job fixing it. You honestly can’t even tell it was ever chipped. Super clean work, looks totally natural. He was easy to talk to and made the whole process smooth. Really glad I found him!
