Last night’s Study Club with Dr. Caputo at Benny and Mary’s in Irvine was a great success.

Sponsored by ZimVie, the evening brought together an incredible group of doctors for a discussion on Advancements in Digital Dentistry. From streamlined workflows to the latest innovations in digital treatment planning, the conversation was insightful, practical, and engaging.

We’re grateful to everyone who joined us and helped make it such a meaningful night of education, collaboration, and connection.

Looking forward to the next one.

Congrats to Team USA 🇺🇸 on bringing home the gold 🥇 for Men's and Women's Hockey! 🏒 Jack Hughes left everything on the ice... including a tooth 🦷. While we love the grit, a missing tooth doesn't have to be permanent. Dental implants fuse naturally to your jawbone, look 100% real, and last a lifetime. Gold medal–worthy? We think so.

Ask us about implants today.

Baby teeth still matter! While they may be temporary, primary teeth serve critical functions for your child's oral development: guiding permanent teeth into proper position, supporting healthy jaw development and facial structure, enabling proper speech development and eating function, and maintaining space for adult teeth.

When baby teeth require surgical intervention - whether due to severe infection, impaction, dental trauma, or extensive decay - our oral surgery team provides expert, compassionate care for patients of all ages.

We treat tooth extractions, impacted canines, wisdom teeth removal for teens, facial trauma and jaw injuries, and oral pathology.

This Children's Dental Health Month, trust our experienced team to care for your child's smile at every stage.

Oral cancer doesn't always come with warning signs, but early detection can save lives. During your routine oral exams, we're not just checking your teeth. We're also screening for early signs of oral cancer that affect the lips, tongue, cheeks, and throat.

What to watch for:

✓Persistent sores that won't heal
✓Unusual red or white patches
✓Lumps or thickened tissue
✓Numbness in the mouth or throat
✓Trouble chewing or swallowing

If you notice anything unusual in your mouth that lasts more than two weeks, don't wait. Schedule an exam. Early detection drastically improves outcomes. Your oral health is about more than just your smile. It could save your life.

Missing bone in the upper jaw doesn’t always mean dental implants aren’t possible.
A sinus lift is a specialized oral surgery procedure that lifts the sinus membrane and includes bone grafting, rebuilding the bone needed to support dental implants.

If you’ve been told you’re not a candidate for implants, a consultation with a board-certified oral surgeon may reveal more options than you think.

📍Proudly serving patients in Orange County and surrounding areas.

Parents: Is it time for your teen's wisdom teeth evaluation? Ages 14-19 is often ideal— roots aren't fully developed yet, making extraction simpler with faster healing. If your teen has braces or recently completed orthodontic treatment, early removal can help protect that investment and prevent crowding. Schedule your consultation at our offices today.
