Cleaning and Check-Ups
Routine hygiene visits are the cornerstone of optimal oral health. By visiting us every six months, along with regular brushing and flossing, you can maintain a mouth and teeth that function well and look great. Our experienced hygienists have a caring, gentle touch. Many of them accompany our doctors in continuing education courses to advance their dental knowledge to greater heights.

Wisdom Teeth Extraction
Not all wisdom teeth erupt to the mouth’s surface. Often, wisdom teeth are left impacted under the gum, where they have the potential to cause infection and nerve damage. Our board certified oral surgeon recommends early evaluation of wisdom teeth in the mid teen years, although evaluation and treatment is very successful for patients of all ages.

Breath Control
In addition to regular brushing and flossing, our doctors can help you with professional breath control. Techniques like professional tongue scraping and prescription strength rinses and other products with keep your breath its freshest. A perfect compliment to a healthy, functional, and beautiful smile!

Laser Dentistry
Say goodbye to painful and noisy dental drills! The doctors at South Bay Dentistry and Orthodontics can use soft tissue lasers in many cases for a variety of dental procedures, including fillings, gum treatments, and more! Laser dentistry is often faster with less pain and reduced healing time, when compared to conventional methods.
