Teeth Straightening in Pasadena, CA

Compassionate Care, Exceptional Quality

Braces are a common and popular method of straightening teeth, but they can make some daily chores more difficult and need regular care to function correctly. How metal braces limit your ability to brush and floss is their main drawback. When wearing metal braces, Walnut Hill Dental Group advises doing this for daily brushing and flossing.You must remove any elastic, rubber bands, or detachable components in order to clean and floss around your braces. You must first clean your braces before you can clean your teeth. Any plaque or food crumbs on the brackets, pins, or wires should be removed using your brush. Brush your teeth following the cleaning of your braces. Brush each tooth for 10 seconds, gently. Be sure to brush both sides along the gumline in a circular motion. Additionally, you should floss once daily.Traditional varieties of floss may be more challenging to use because of the wire from metal braces; threader floss is thus advised. Because of its strong and thin tip, threader floss makes it simpler to floss every tooth and weave through wires. You should also arrange routine dental visits with your orthodontist to have your braces cleaned or adjusted in addition to adhering to this daily program.

Smiles That Inspire

My grandfather went for teeth implants and had an amazing experience. The doctor was so kind and patient, the office was clean, and he had no pain whatsoever. The teeth implants looked so natural that I didn’t even recognize it wasn’t his teeth. The color, shape and size was so realistic. We came all the way from Westwood and definitely would recommend this doctor.

Staff is always efficient, but most of all they are kind. Everyone cares about the patient and are continually checking to make sure you are getting okay. Given that going to the dentist is not a fun thing to do, the staff does everything they can to make the experience positive.

- Sharron

I have only been with Walnut Hill Dental for 2 months, but so far am very happy with the quality of care. It was recommended that I have 6 fillings, a root canal with a crown, and a deep cleaning. It’s a lot, but I recently left my other dentists because I felt like they were not very proactive in my dental care. I had gone to another dentists a few months prior to Walnut Hill Dental, and they pretty much gave me the same assessment.
