Your Family Dentist Downey!
Dr. Bhakta personally provides quality family and general dental care as a dentist Downey has
trusted since 2008. Dr. Bhakta has provided services related to the general maintenance of oral hygiene and tooth health to patients as young as 18 months old and as old as 92. Dr. Bhakta considers regularly scheduled dental visits to be the first level of defense against dental problems. Like the American Dental Association (ADA), he recommends that you visit for 
a checkup two times each year. At these visits, he and his staff will provide dental examinations, routine or deep cleanings and scheduled X-rays to eliminate plaque buildup and prevent tooth decay. Dr. Bhakta's patients have found these dental checkups can detect and prevent problems long before the onset of symptoms may appear. However, if structural damage to your teeth as a result of tooth decay, wear or trauma exists, Dr. Bhakta will provide dental fillings to repair damage to the structure of a tooth or teeth.
Your Cosmetic Dentist Downey!
Cosmetic dentistry, though not a formal dental specialty, is generally referred to those procedures that improve the appearance of your teeth rather than their functionality. Dr. Bhakta offers cosmetic
dentistry services that will improve the appearance of your teeth, mouth and smile. His advanced training in cosmetic dentistry at the University of Southern California and his extensive continuing education training have equipped him with the skills and experience to transform your smile. While much of cosmetic dentistry is primarily for elective – or desired – treatments, it may also provide restorative benefits. For example, replacing old fillings with porcelain will more closely match the color of your teeth, 
but, it may also contribute to overall oral health. Dr. Bhakta is up to date with the many technological advancements in natural-looking dental materials and cosmetic techniques. And today, many of the cosmetic dental treatments are more affordable and predictable. Dr. Bhakta, the Dentist Downey Trusts, will always utilize conservative cosmetic dentistry techniques to preserve as much of your natural tooth structure as possible. Call Radiant Smiles for a free consultation and see how Dr. Bhakta can embellish your smile and boost your self confidence.
Your Restorative Dentist Downey!
Dr. Bhakta has years of experience in the diagnosis, treatment and management of diseases of the teeth and their supporting structures. Restorative dentistry primarily addresses procedures that would not be considered optional. Correcting broken, uneven, chipped, or missing teeth; gum inflammation, and other similar problems are not cosmetic procedures. Left uncorrected problems such as these can lead to gum 
disease and serious health problems. If damaged or missing teeth change the alignment of your structure, the result can be a variety of symptoms including headaches, earaches, teeth grinding, or temporomandibular joint disorder (TMJ). With restorative dentistry, Dr. Bhakta can correct your bit, thus ensuring the health of your teeth, jaw, and jaw joints. Many of the restorative procedures in which Dr. Bhakta excels are listed below. Call Dr. Bhakta and discuss with him how he can restore the normal function of your teeth and the aesthetics of your smile.
