From Invisalign to Periodontal Therapy: How Our Multi-Disciplinary Team Streamlines Your Oral Healthcare

Going to different dental care providers for every specialty can be tiring — keeping them all straight, remembering which professional’s office is where. Plus, getting referrals and ensuring continuity of care and dental history can be time-consuming and, quite honestly, a hassle you’d prefer to avoid.

At Shoreline Dental Studio, we help streamline your dental care needs by offering a range of dental specialties within one team — from general dentistry for preventative oral health to cosmetic dentistry to boost your smile aesthetics to teeth straightening with Invisalign.

So, which types of dentistry do we provide at Shoreline Dental Studio? Let’s dive into the comprehensive dental services your Orange County dentist offers.

Family Dentistry: A Preventative Oral Care Foundation

It’s no secret that on top of a diligent at-home oral care routine and eating healthy for your teeth, an essential part of top-notch oral care is visiting your family dentist regularly for check-ups and cleanings. Dr. Ritzau, Dr. Livingston, Dr. Saad, and Dr. Winters provide high-quality, preventative general dentistry to patients of all ages as dentists in Mission Viejo and San Clemente. We’re here to help you maintain optimal oral health over your lifetime and love your smile!

Periodontics and Periodontal Therapy To Restore Gum and Teeth Health

As much as you do your best to avoid tooth decay and cavities, they sometimes happen. And sometimes they can lead to periodontal disease: gingivitis on the mild end — inflammation of your gums, all the way to periodontitis — severe gum disease that starts to destroy your teeth’s bone tissue. As your go-to comprehensive dentist in Mission Viejo and San Clemente, we offer periodontal therapy to address your periodontal disease. If you have gum disease, treatment starts with a professional cleaning, then continues with non-invasive periodontal therapy such as scaling, root planing, or perhaps a prescription for antibiotics.

In cases of advanced periodontitis that need surgery, we can perform treatments that will encourage your gums and teeth towards health once again. We might recommend surgical periodontal therapy such as:

• Soft tissue grafts
• Bone grafting
• Guided tissue regeneration
• Applying tissue-stimulating proteins
• Gum flap surgery

But what happens if your periodontitis has damaged your teeth so much that surgical treatments won’t help and your teeth need replacing? You’re also in good hands at Shoreline Dental Studio. Our doctors are highly skilled at restorative treatment like dental implants, bridges, or dentures to bring back your smile’s health, function, and aesthetics. Dr. Ritzau has even been recognized by the International Dental Implant Association for her contributions.

Invisalign for Straight and Healthy Teeth

Not all general dentists can offer teeth straightening with Invisalign. Luckily, your Shoreline Dental Studio does, and we’re one of the Nation’s few Diamond Invisalign Providers. This designation indicates our extensive experience and expertise in straightening smiles with these clear aligners. Misaligned teeth, gaps, or overcrowding? We can help you or your teen achieve straighter teeth and a healthier bite with these clear aligners so you don’t have to see another dental specialist at a different office.

We take Invisalign very seriously! As your Mission Viejo and San Clemente dentists, we’re trained in advanced Invisalign techniques and are members of ongoing international Invisalign study clubs to stay on the leading edge of Invisalign treatment techniques. Dr. Ritzau even serves on the Board of the Academy of Clear Aligners.
