Regular dental exams and cleanings form the foundation of a healthy, beautiful smile, and at LALUME Dental Studio in Newport Beach, we elevate this essential care to an exceptional experience. Our comprehensive approach combines advanced biomimetic technology with spa-like comfort, ensuring you receive thorough preventive care in a serene, welcoming environment across from Hoag Hospital.
While many dental practices in Orange County treat exams and cleanings as routine appointments, we view them as opportunities to protect your oral health investment and prevent complex issues before they arise. Dr. Shahira Saad and our team provide meticulous care using state-of-the-art diagnostic tools, creating a personalized prevention plan tailored to your unique needs and smile goals.
Your comprehensive exam at our Newport Beach cosmetic dentistry practice begins with advanced digital imaging and a thorough assessment of your teeth, gums, and jaw. We utilize cutting-edge 3D imaging technology to detect concerns invisible to the naked eye, allowing us to identify potential issues months or years before they become problematic.
During your exam, Dr. Saad examines each tooth individually, checking for signs of decay, wear patterns, and structural integrity. We assess your gum health, screening for early signs of periodontal disease, and evaluate your bite alignment to identify any functional concerns. Our biomimetic approach considers how your teeth, jaw muscles, and facial structure work together, providing insights that traditional exams may miss.
We also perform oral cancer screenings using advanced detection methods, examining your tongue, throat, and oral tissues for any abnormalities. This comprehensive evaluation takes into account your medical history, lifestyle factors, and aesthetic goals, ensuring every aspect of your oral health receives proper attention.
Our professional cleanings go far beyond what you can achieve with home care alone. Using ultrasonic technology and specialized instruments, our skilled hygienists gently remove plaque and tartar buildup from areas your toothbrush cannot reach, including below the gum line and between teeth.
We customize each cleaning based on your specific needs. For patients with healthy gums, we provide preventive prophylaxis cleanings to maintain optimal oral health. Those showing early signs of gum inflammation may benefit from more focused periodontal therapy. Our gentle approach ensures comfort throughout your visit, with aromatherapy and Netflix on ceiling-mounted TVs helping you relax during treatment.
Following your cleaning, we apply professional-grade fluoride treatments when appropriate and may recommend additional preventive measures based on your individual risk factors. Our hygienists also provide personalized instruction on home care techniques, demonstrating proper brushing and flossing methods specific to your mouth’s unique anatomy.
Preventive care through regular exams and cleanings represents one of the most cost-effective investments in your oral health. By identifying concerns early, we can often address them with minimally invasive treatments, preserving more of your natural tooth structure and avoiding costly restorations later.
Small cavities detected during routine exams can be treated with conservative fillings, preventing the need for crowns or root canals down the road. Early-stage gum disease responds well to non-surgical treatment, while advanced periodontitis may require extensive procedures. Regular professional cleanings remove bacterial buildup contributing to both oral and systemic health issues, potentially reducing your risk of heart disease, diabetes complications, and other inflammatory conditions.
While we accept most PPO insurance plans, we also offer flexible payment options through Cherry financing and our in-house membership plan makes preventive care accessible for every budget.
At LALUME Dental Studio, we’ve reimagined what dental visits can be. Our private treatment rooms provide a tranquil escape from the typical clinical atmosphere, featuring the following amenities:
Dr. Saad’s minimally invasive philosophy extends to every aspect of your care, from gentle cleaning techniques to conservative treatment recommendations. Our advanced technology, including digital X-rays that reduce radiation exposure by up to 90%, ensures your safety while providing superior diagnostic capabilities. The data we collect helps us track changes over time, identifying trends and patterns, allowing for truly preventive care.
We schedule ample time for each appointment, never double-booking or rushing through procedures. This patient-centered approach means you receive our full attention, with time for questions, concerns, and discussion about your oral health goals.
Regular exams and cleanings typically occur every six months, though some patients benefit from more frequent visits based on their individual risk factors. We work with you to establish an optimal schedule, considering factors like your history of dental disease, current oral health status, and commitment to home care.
Between visits, we support your oral health journey with educational resources and personalized recommendations. Whether you’re maintaining a healthy smile or working toward specific goals like Invisalign treatment or veneers, preventive care provides the foundation for lasting results.
Our team tracks your progress over time, celebrating improvements and adjusting our approach as needed. We believe in empowering patients with knowledge about their oral health, explaining findings clearly, and involving you in treatment decisions.
Don’t wait for problems to develop; proactive prevention keeps your smile healthy, beautiful, and free from unexpected dental emergencies.
