Dental Office

Lafayette, CA

We are a Lafayette dental office and provide patients with the dental care they need to stay in excellent oral health. At Lafayette Dental Implant Center, we understand the importance of offering comprehensive dental services so that regardless of whether you need a general teeth cleaning or a full restoration, we have the solutions for a perfectly healthy and functioning smile. If you live in or around the Lafayette area, we invite you to call (510) 257-2284 and schedule an appointment to meet Dr. Malboubi and have your teeth examined.

Convenience for your Family

Understanding how busy life can be, we aim to make receiving dental care as easy as possible. Our dental office is located in Lafayette, CA, and offers flexible appointment times. We will do everything in our power to ensure that you can visit our office without having to take time off work. If you have a small window or specific request, let our office staff know so that we can be as accommodating as possible. Likewise, if you have multiple people in your family, we can try to schedule your teeth cleanings for the same general time so that you only have to make one trip to the dentist office.

By keeping your teeth healthy and receiving teeth cleanings twice a year, you will decrease your risk of a cavity or infection. Still, accidents can often damage teeth and there is no way to plan for when an accident may happen. As such, if you crack a tooth or one falls out, give us a call. If it is after hours, we will return your call as quickly as possible so that you can be seen and treated right away.

Education

In our dental office, we believe in the importance of patient education. We take the time to speak with each patient and discuss ways that they can improve their oral health. This may involve us demonstrating how to brush teeth correctly, floss or discuss dietary changes that can strengthen teeth. For example, many people do not know that acidic foods are bad for teeth and can directly lead to erosion and a loss of enamel. Simultaneously, diary products, nuts and crunchy vegetables can actually help to strengthen teeth and prevent cavities. These are the types of things that we discuss in our dental office so that patients can improve their oral health between visits. If you live in or around the Lafayette area, we recommend that you schedule teeth cleanings for twice a year. When you do, feel free to discuss any concerns that you have and ask for tips for keeping your teeth and gums healthier.

Types of Dentistry

Dental offices throughout the country specialize in various types of dental work. We offer comprehensive dental care so that all of our patients’ oral health concerns can be addressed from one location. This starts with performing routine dental examinations and teeth cleanings. Appointments like this are essential for keeping teeth and gums healthy in the long-run. During these exams, we will look for signs of cavities and gum disease then make treatment recommendations if we identify any problems. Once teeth are healthy and clean, we can discuss any cosmetic issues or problems that may be interfering with having a perfect smile. We have a variety of cosmetic dentistry solutions that can close gaps in between teeth, change the overall shape and size of teeth, straighten teeth, cover dark stains and more. This makes it possible for our patients to transform the appearance of their smile and improve their appearance at the same time.

For those that have a dental emergency and need a tooth repaired, we offer dental restorations as well. This may involve correcting a tooth that has been cracked or chipped. We can do so using dental veneers or a dental crown and make the restoration blend in with the surrounding teeth for a perfectly natural appearance. Once the restoration is complete, we will ensure that it is durable, strong, and the perfect fit so that the tooth will function properly as it once did. Patients will also appreciate that they can have their teeth repaired rather than having them pulled.

If a tooth does fall out due to an accident or infection, we can assist with that as well. In our Lafayette dental office, we can replace missing teeth using a variety of methods. Some of the most common methods are removable dentures, dental bridges, and dental implants. While losing a tooth can be traumatic, it does not have to be permanent when working with Dr. Malboubi.

Technology

Dental offices have the advantage of using modern technology to improve dental care. The advancements in modern dentistry open up a world of possibilities. There is virtually no oral health or appearance concern that cannot be solved when treated quickly enough. Early detection and treatment are still important, but with ongoing care, patients have the option of keeping most of their teeth and having a beautiful smile as they age. Technology also makes it possible for us to perform dental work and attempt to keep patients comfortable.

Our Team

We work as a team to keep patients throughout Lafayette, CA in excellent oral health. We can restore damaged teeth and transform smiles. Our friendly office team provides an office environment where patients can feel at home. We understand that visiting a dental office, is not always an enjoyable experience, and we aim to change that. From the moment you schedule an appointment to when you wait in the lobby, have your dental work done, and receive your bill, we offer the highest level of patient care and customer service we can. At Lafayette Dental Implant Center, you can count on our team to be there when you need us.
