Diagnostic

• Dental Examination
  A comprehensive dental exam will be performed by our dental team at your initial visit.  At regular check-up exams, we will include the following...
• X-rays
• Oral Cancer Screening
   Oral cancer screening: Check the face, neck, lips, tongue, throat, tissues, and gums for any signs of oral cancer.

Preventive

• Teeth Cleaning
  Professional dental cleanings (dental prophylaxis) are usually performed by Registered Dental Hygienists.  Your cleaning appointment will include a dental exam and the following...
• Fluoride Treatment
• Dental Sealants
  As a practice, we are true believers that preventative care and education are the keys to optimal dental health. We strive to provide “dental health care†vs. “disease care†. That’s why we focus on thorough exams – checking the overall health of your teeth and gums, performing oral cancer screenings, and taking x-rays to confirm a diagnosis. We also know that routine cleanings, sealants, and fluoride are all helpful in preventing dental disease, heart disease and overall systemic health. Not only are we focused on the beauty of your smile, we’re also concerned about your complete health. We consider one’s general health with all recommended treatment.

Restorative

• Fillings
• Veneers
  Concord Dentist and Implant specialist, Dr. Gene Allen Herrera and caring staff are dedicated to excellence in general and cosmetic dentistry, specializing in dental implants, crowns, porcelain veneers, and tooth-colored restorations. His practice, Concord Dental Group, serves the East Bay Area cities of Concord, Clayton, Walnut Creek, and Pleasant Hill, California.
• Crowns
  ITero is an intraoral digital dental scanner that can be used to perform accurate orthodontic scans, such as those required for braces or when undergoing Invisalign therapy. Additionally, it can be used to take teeth scans required for producing custom-fitted restorative dental crowns.
• Bridges
  Last a Lifetime  - Whereas a dental bridge lasts around ten years, dental implants can serve you for a lifetime. It’s also bio-compatible, meaning that the bone actually fuses to the implant to create the strongest support. The implant becomes a permanent part of the jaw, and if the restoration is damaged or worn, attaching a new one is simple and painless.
• Restorative Dentistry
  When you face a problem with your smile, Dr. Herrera will make a thorough examination of your situation and takes the time to work with you to decide on the right restoration for your smile. We look for treatments that are effective, conservative, and beneficial for your oral and overall health.

Endodontics

• Root Canal Treatment
  Arrive at our office: Now, you should get to our office quickly and safely, and let the experts take over. We will try to reattach the tooth to its natural socket, which in some cases is achieved through root canal therapy.

Periodontics

• Deep Cleaning

Prosthodontics

• Dentures
  Implants are suitable if you have one or more missing teeth, as well as broken or decayed teeth that may be beyond repair. If you are uncomfortable with your bridge or dentures, you can also benefit from the support provided by dental implants.

Implants

• Dental Implants
  Dental implants are considered the most long-lasting tooth replacement option. A dental implant comprises of a small titanium post placed within your jaw. These implants mimic the roots of natural teeth, thus preserving existing bone structure and preventing bone loss. Concord California implant specialist, Dr. G. Allen Herrera is Board Certified with the American Board of Dental Specialties (ABDS) and a Diplomate with the American Board of Oral ImplantologyÂ

Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery

• Oral Surgery
  Facial pain can be caused by a variety of factors, including dental issues such as bruxism (teeth grinding) and temporomandibular joint disorder (TMJ) and after oral surgery. These conditions can cause pain in the jaw, face, and even the neck and shoulders. If left untreated, they can lead to more serious oral health issues such as tooth decay, gum disease, and even tooth loss.
• Tooth Extractions

Orthodontics

• Orthodontics
  Dr. Herrera is a graduate of the University of the Pacific Arthur A. Dugoni School of Dentistry. He is Board Certified in implant dentistry and has broad knowledge and experience in all phases of general and cosmetic dentistry, including bone and gum grafts, crowns, dentures, orthodontics including Invisalign (clear braces) and Short Term Orthodontics (fast braces for adults), root canals and extractions.
• Invisalign Orthodontics
  If your teeth are misaligned, achieving a healthy bite is now easier than ever with Invisalign. Concord Dental Care is a leading provider for Invisalign® clear braces. These clear braces are customized to fit over your teeth and use gentle pressure to move your teeth into the ideal position. They work well for people with mild to moderate misalignments looking to overcome issues such as gaps, crowding, or crooked teeth.
• Braces
  Clear braces are a great choice if you prefer a discrete look, which is not possible with conventional braces. They also offer better oral hygiene since you remove the trays before brushing and replace them once you have finished. They also don’t irritate the inside of your mouth.
