When your smile is healthy, our dentist in Los Angeles<\/a><\/strong> recommends scheduling a preventive care appointment every six months. These are the appointments where we clean and examine your teeth, intermittently screening for any new developments that might have popped up between your visits.<\/p>\n

But when should you stop by to be seen for an exam, if you\u2019re not due up for a dental cleaning?<\/em><\/p>\n

Suddenly Feeling a “Rough” or “Sharp” Area on Your Tooth<\/h2>\n

As you run your tongue across your teeth, do you suddenly notice an area that \u201cdoesn\u2019t feel quite right?\u201d It might be a leaky filling, crack, or cavity that has popped up!<\/p>\n

Pain or Sensitivity That\u2019s in a Specific Area<\/h2>\n

Can you pin down a specific area in your mouth that is hurting or very sensitive? Maybe it\u2019s just during meals, or it comes off and on over several days. It could be something that, if neglected, could result in extensive pain or infection. Instead, see a dentist in as soon as possible to see what the problem is. It\u2019s far better to get something checked out that turns out not to be that big of a deal, then to let things worsen.<\/p>\n

You Have a Big Event Coming Up<\/h2>\n

Maybe you\u2019ve suddenly been presented with the opportunity for a huge job interview, or decide to move your wedding up sooner than it was originally scheduled. When you need to look your best, it\u2019s not just your hair, makeup, and wardrobe that matter: your teeth do too!<\/p>\n

Visiting a cosmetic dentist in Los Angeles<\/a><\/strong> can help you make your teeth more appealing, brighter, and younger. Depending on what your goals are, you have plenty of options to choose from\u2026even budget friendly ones!
