Diagnostic

• Dental Examination
  In recent years, bacterial inflammation associated with gum disease has been linked to chronic health problems, such as stroke, coronary artery disease and premature, low birth-weight babies. Yet there are a number of things you can do to help protect your teeth and your overall health. Visiting your dentist at least twice a year allows us to thoroughly clean your teeth, and dental exams give us the ability to evaluate any potential problems (i.e. cavities, gingivitis, etc.) before they become more serious. We are also able to recognize whether a patient is getting proper nutrition, maintaining a proper oral hygiene regimen and whether there are any growth or development problems.
• X-rays

Preventive

• Teeth Cleaning
  “I thoroughly recommend Embarcadero Dentistry. Doctor Olsen and his professional team of dentists, especially Ivan, are professional and highly efficient in their trade. I got my teeth cleaned here and did two follow-up deep cleanings with Doctor Ivan. I will definitely be coming back come 2018 for my next teeth cleaning and checkups.”

• Fillings
• Veneers
  Aesthetic dental treatments, including teeth whitening, porcelain crowns or veneers, and cosmetic bonding, enhance the appearance of your smile and boost your confidence.

• Apicoectomy
  An apicoectomy, or root-end resection, is a surgical procedure performed when the infection persists or develops after root canal treatment. During this procedure, the tip of the tooth’s root is removed, along with any infected tissue, to eliminate the source of infection and promote healing. Dr. Shadmehr has the skills and expertise to perform apicoectomies with minimal discomfort and optimal outcomes.

Periodontics

• Periodontal Surgery
• Deep Cleaning
  I’ve been getting care from Dr Prabhakar for years now. My experience has been great. She does her job very well and always respects my space and concerns during the treatment. I had several fillings, countless cleanings, X-rays, and a deep cleaning done and all worked great. Eidi at the front desk is great too. She’s always on the job and proactively informs you of any changes in payments or insurance coverage. Updating after a few more years. Care is still great and Dr P is wonderful.

Prosthodontics
