Dental Examination
You are entitled to feel improved following your next trip to the dentist. At El Cerro Dental, our cleanings and examinations are absolutely stress-free, designed to make you feel happy about the wellness of your teeth and gums.
X-rays
Oral Cancer Screening
Oral Cancer Screening: Regular screenings for oral cancer can help detect this disease in its early stages when it's easier to treat.

Teeth Cleaning
Another easy way to calm your fears is to visit our Danville dental office and meet with Dr. Cappelletti prior to the actual appointment. Taking the time to tour our office, where you can sit in the dentist chair and have a conversation, will allow you to become familiar with our staff and office environment. After this meeting, when you do have your teeth cleaned, you are doing so in an atmosphere that you feel comfortable in with friendly and familiar faces. During your consultation, we can also discuss what you can expect from a teeth cleaning or a specific procedure. This will help you to mentally prepare for how long it will take, what dental tools we will use, what you may feel during the process and what the recovery period will be, if any. At Gary C Cappelletti, DDS - El Cerro Dental, we find that the more informed our patients are the more comfortable and relaxed they feel. This one appointment can help to alleviate the fear of dentists that you are experiencing.
Fluoride Treatment
No, you need to care for your fillings just like you do your other teeth. You need to brush at least twice a day and floss on a daily basis. We recommend using fluoride toothpaste, since this can help to further strengthen your teeth and prevent further decay. In some cases, we may even recommend a fluoride treatment in our dental office. You should also be careful to avoid doing anything that could damage your teeth and wear a mouthguard if applicable. Keep in mind that a filling is there to restore your tooth structure both in appearance and in functionality. This means we are not trying to restrict your activities or even what you can eat. Instead, we place fillings to ensure your life is not interrupted and you can return to your normal daily activities quickly.
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 â€œdental health careâ€ vs. â€œdisease careâ€ . Thatâ€™s why we focus on thorough exams â€“ 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, weâ€™re also concerned about your complete health. We consider oneâ€™s general health with all recommended treatment.

Fillings
Tooth-colored fillings are safer for your health since they consist of resin or a plastic material. Silver fillings are typically not silver, but a metal alloy that includes several materials with mercury among them. There have been numerous health warnings regarding the overexposure to mercury, which is why pregnant women are warned to stay away from tuna. While many people believe amalgam fillings are perfectly safe, the data can be contradictory from study to study. If you want to avoid the risks that come with mercury exposure, select tooth-colored fillings, or replace your existing silver fillings. Visit our Danville, CA dental office for more information.
Resin Composite
We can place a composite resin filling fairly quickly. This is an affordable and durable restoration that will look similar to a regular tooth. We make sure to complete the procedure in a way that is comfortable, effective, and fast. In some situations, depending on the patient and the position of where the filling will go, we can complete a filling every 30 minutes. If you live in the Danville area, we encourage you to consider the many benefits of getting tooth-colored fillings instead of amalgam ones.
Veneers
A dental veneer is a porcelain shell that dental professionals can customize to enhance the size, shape and shade of a tooth. Dental veneers are a commonly offered dental restoration at El Cerro Dental in Danville, CA.
Crowns
Dental crowns are caps that restore the shape and size of teeth after they have been damaged, and offer protection from further damage. Dental crowns are a great option for restoring damaged teeth and are a standard procedure offered at El Cerro Dental.
Bridges
When getting dental crowns and dental bridges installed, it is advisable that you work with a cosmetic dentist that knows how to complete the procedure in a way that looks natural. At Gary C Cappelletti, DDS - El Cerro Dental, we can do so while also working to keep our patients as comfortable as possible by using sedation dentistry. The process for both procedures is fairly similar. Before getting started, an impression is taken of the teeth so that the new crown or bridge can be created in a dental lab.
Dental Bonding
When the dental restoratives are complete, patients return to our Danville dentist office, so that we can remove the temporaries and bond the permanent ones to the tooth. For a dental crown, we will secure the cap around the tooth and complete it through dental bonding. With a bridge, a crown is placed on the two teeth that are surrounding the missing one. On top of the crown is a piece that looks like natural gums that will hold the new tooth in place. These two crowns serve as anchors for this synthetic "bridge" and makes a new tooth as durable as it can be. Patients depend on this procedure as a way to replace missing teeth in a way that looks natural and restores the functionality of the missing tooth.
Restorative Dentistry
At El Cerro Dental in Danville, we recognize the critical role that restorative dentistry plays in facilitating our patients' optimal oral health and crafting stunning, functional smiles. Naina Jain, DMD and Gary Cappelletti, DDS, along with our team of seasoned dental experts are at your disposal if you're grappling with a chipped tooth, decay, or tooth loss.

Root Canal Treatment
Root canal treatment involves removing the infected dental pulp of a tooth, cleaning the tooth and placing a filling to prevent further infection. Root canals are a service offered at El Cerro Dental in Danville, CA.

Dentures
Dentures and partial dentures are removable artificial teeth that offer a natural-looking replacement for a row, or rows of missing teeth. Dentures are a commonly offered dental solution offered at El Cerro Dental.

Dental Implants
Implants: Dental implants are a sought-after solution for replacing missing teeth, providing a durable, natural-looking remedy that can aid in preserving your oral health.

Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery

Oral Surgery
Typically not. Sleep dentistry is usually reserved for oral surgery and lengthy procedures. Sedation dentistry will help you relax and can make you drowsy, so some patients do nod off. However, with our sedation methods, you are still in control of your body and are technically not put to sleep.
Tooth Extractions
While our focus at El Cerro Dental is on preventative care, we performÂ tooth extractionsÂ on a regular basis. We are always looking for ways to avoid an extraction by keeping your oral health in good shape. We will clean your teeth on a regular basis, discuss a healthy diet with you, and treat gum disease, cavities, and infections to the best of our abilities; in order to keep your teeth healthy and intact. As a general dentist, we will also work to restore your tooth if it has been damaged â€“ all of which can help you to maintain your natural teeth for years to come. If you are experiencing discomfort or your tooth is in need of repair, we invite you to call our Danville, CA dental office atÂ (925) 837-8564 Â to schedule an appointment.Â

Orthodontics
Some people may also use dental implants to straighten teeth that are crooked or teeth that are not responding to orthodontics. This is an important part of a smile makeover because if all of your teeth are white and beautiful, but one is severely crooked, your new smile will feel incomplete.
Invisalign Orthodontics
A graduate of one of the finest dental schools in the U.S., University of Pennsylvania, Dr. Naina Jain believes in continuous development of her knowledge and skills, and strives to provide the most current standards of care to her patients. She is specially trained in all aspects of dentistry, including Endodontics (root canals), InvisalignÂ® and Dental Implants.Â
Braces
If you still have your wisdom teeth, you may need to have them removed. We invite you to schedule an appointment with our dentist office so that we can examine your teeth and take X-rays to determine whether or not you should keep your wisdom teeth. Not everyone needs to have them out, so it depends on how much room you have and whether they are growing in straight or impacted. Also, if you have worn braces, they might need to be removed to prevent them pushing the other teeth forward. The process of removing wisdom teeth is roughly the same as any other tooth with the exception of when and why we perform the procedure. At El Cerro Dental, we typically recommend wisdom teeth removal in the teenage years. General extractions are more common as people age and have a tooth that needs to be removed due to a severe infection or significant damage. To find out whether or not you should keep your wisdom teeth, callÂ (925) 837-8564 Â to schedule an appointment to speak with Dr. Naina Jain.

Teeth Whitening
There are several ways to whiten your teeth. An in-office whitening procedure can whiten your teeth by up to eight shades in a single office visit and do so without causing any discomfort. For those that would prefer to whiten their teeth on their own schedule, an at-home treatment may be better. In this scenario, an impression is taken of your teeth and a customizedÂ Teeth WhiteningÂ tray is created in a dental lab. It is made to fit perfectly so that the whitening solution stays in place, and your teeth feel comfortable. If necessary, we will provide you with a whitening solution that can be used at home so that you can improve the appearance of your teeth regardless of where you are or how busy your schedule is. To learn more, callÂ 925-837-8564Â and schedule a consultation.
Cosmetic Dentistry
A standard of excellence in personalized dental care enables us to provide the quality dental services our patients deserve. We provide comprehensive treatment planning and use restorative and cosmetic dentistry to achieve your optimal dental health. Should a dental emergency occur, we make every effort to see and care for you as soon as possible.
General Dentistry
Dr. Cappellettiâ€™s practice shares in the enthusiasm and philosophy of modern dentistry. Already a perfectionist dedicated to quality care, Dr. Cappelletti has fast made a firm commitment toward cosmetic and implant dentistry â€” all the while keeping the sound fundamentals of general dentistry in proper focus, a crucial component to total patient dental care. His hands-on attention includes early morning hours and some Saturdays to better accommodate patientsâ€™ schedules.
