Happy New Year! 

We are so excited to be back for another year doing what we love and helping our patients achieve the smile of their dreams. We wanted to kick this year off with some new and exciting updates for the office. 

Before we get into it, we just wanted to give a BIG thank you to all of our wonderful patients who made last year possible and an even BIGGER thank you to our amazing staff here at Live and Smile Dental and Orthodontics! 

With a new year comes new changes. We're constantly keeping up with the latest technology and dental material. We've made some equipment and material upgrades recently. We've upgraded our Dentsply Sirona CEREC Omnican to Primescan with improved scanning and precision for in-office restoration design and milling. Icon Resin Infiltration by DMG has also been added to our dental material family. It's a revolutionary way to treat early dental cavities without drilling or anesthesia! 

Another amazing change that we are so happy to announce is that we have partnered with Predicine, to offer a no-cost COVID-19 PCR and rapid antigen testing for the safety and convenience of our existing patients and families. PCR Test results will be ready within 24-48 hours. Our staff is tested regularly to ensure overall safety because our patients’ safety is our number one priority.

If you're looking to get the smile of your dreams this year, schedule a complimentary consultation with one of our doctors to discuss your goals and dreams. We love to listen to you, evaluate the health of your teeth and gums, and come up with a comprehensive treatment that is tailored to your needs and wants. We believe in minimally invasive dentistry and partner with our patients to achieve beautiful and long-lasting smiles. 

As a premier Ortho and Gold plus Invisalign provider, we love to help our patients to get the smile they want. If you're interested in braces or Invisalign® treatment, please give us a call at 925-828-5500 and ask about our New Year specials. To accommodate more patients and ensure we are helping our patients achieve their dream smiles, we have decided to open on certain Saturdays as well as extend our Tuesday hours from 7 am to 7 pm later this year. If you are looking to schedule an appointment, give us a call today!

Another exciting change is we have a new doctor. Please join us in welcoming Dr. Ted Vu! Dr. Vu has many years of experience in Dental Implants and Oral Surgery. He's looking forward to helping our patients with more complicated dental needs and we are over the moon excited to have our patients meet the new doctor! We're constantly hiring new additions for our team. If you have a passion for dentistry and helping others, then you are eligible to apply. You can email your resume to [email protected]. 

We also wanted to take this time to shout out our wonderful orthodontic assistant Rebeca is celebrating her birthday this month. She loves to help our patients smile more confidently with Orthodontic care. 

We're grateful to have the opportunity to serve our patients and community. Please feel free to let us know what we can do to improve our services. Any feedback is welcome.
