As your primary healthcare provider, Dr. Irannezhad offers expert diagnosis and management for a wide range of common health conditions. Common areas of focus include:
- Dental Injury: Broken teeth, knocked-out teeth, or injuries to your mouth are all considered dental injuries that your dentist can repair or manage.
- Sensitive Teeth: Sharp, shooting pains in your teeth triggered by temperature changes or certain foods often indicate sensitive teeth, a problem your general dentist can help resolve.
- Tooth Loss: If you've lost teeth, a general dentist can create a personalized treatment plan to restore your smile and improve your oral function with options such as bridges or dentures.
- Clicking of Temporomandibular Joint: Jaw clicking is often associated with TMJ problems; your dentist can evaluate the condition and develop a personalized treatment plan to alleviate discomfort.
- Dental Trauma: A general dentist can help you deal with the effects of dental trauma, from simple chips and cracks to severe jaw injuries.
- Gum Disease: Gum disease is caused by bacteria buildup and can lead to tooth loss if left untreated; your dentist provides regular checkups and treatments to prevent and manage it.
- Swollen Gums: If your gums are puffy and red, it could indicate gum disease; your dentist can identify the severity and help manage or treat the inflammation with professional cleaning and instructions for improved home care.
- Tooth Decay: Your dentist can identify and repair tooth decay, which happens when acid from plaque eats away at your tooth enamel, causing holes and potential infection.
- Halitosis: Halitosis, or bad breath, often indicates a need for improved oral hygiene or treatment of underlying dental issues; your dentist can diagnose the problem and recommend appropriate solutions.
- Gingivitis: If your gums are sore, red, or bleed easily, you may have gingivitis, and your dentist can help you reverse it before it progresses to a more serious condition.
- Receding Gums: Receding gums expose the tooth roots, increasing sensitivity and the risk of infection; a general dentist can assess the severity, address the underlying cause (like gum disease), and provide treatments to stabilize the gums.
- Mouth Conditions: Maintaining good oral health is key to preventing many mouth conditions, and your dentist can help through regular checkups and professional cleaning.
This list represents some of the common conditions treated. An accurate diagnosis and a personalized care plan can only be developed through a direct consultation with a qualified medical professional.
To provide comprehensive and patient-centered care, Dr. Irannezhad offers a range of services designed to diagnose, manage, and treat various health concerns:
- Amalgam Dental Fillings: A common filling material, amalgam is a mixture of metals that dentists use to fill cavities and restore the function and shape of a damaged tooth.
- Dental Cleaning: During a dental cleaning, your dentist or hygienist will remove plaque and tartar, polish your teeth, and check for any signs of gum disease or decay.
- Dental Crown: If a tooth is severely weakened or cracked, a crown can provide the necessary support and protection.
- Dental Implant: Dental implants are artificial tooth roots surgically placed into your jawbone to provide a stable base for replacement teeth.
- Root Canal: Root canal therapy is a treatment that addresses the inner portion of a tooth to save it from extraction when it's severely damaged or infected.
- Gum Surgery: Gum surgery can improve gum health, making it easier to clean your teeth and reduce the risk of infections.
- Porcelain Bridge: If you have a missing tooth or teeth, a porcelain bridge can fill the gap, preventing other teeth from shifting and improving your oral health.

Here are answers to some common questions about receiving General Dentistry care with Dr. Irannezhad:
- How is my dental health connected to my overall health, like my heart?
- Your oral health is critically linked to your overall health, including your heart. Bacteria from chronic gum disease can enter your bloodstream, increasing your risk of heart disease, stroke, and poorly controlled diabetes. Regular dental care isn't just about your teeth; it's essential for maintaining your overall well-being.
- My medications make my mouth constantly dry. Is this a dental problem?
- Yes, dry mouth (xerostomia) is a common side effect of many medications. Saliva is the body's natural defense against cavities, so a dry mouth significantly increases the risk of tooth decay and gum disease. Dr. Irannezhad can recommend special rinses, gels, and other strategies to manage dry mouth.
- What is the difference between a crown and a filling?
- A filling is like a patch to repair a small area of a damaged tooth. A crown is a cap that covers the entire tooth, used when the tooth is significantly damaged, cracked, or has had a root canal, providing extra strength and protection.
- Is it normal for my gums to bleed when I brush or floss?
- Healthy gums do not bleed. Bleeding when brushing or flossing is usually the first sign of gum inflammation (gingivitis). This is often reversible with a professional cleaning and improved daily oral hygiene, but if left untreated, it can progress to more serious gum disease.
- If I need a root canal, will I have to see a specialist?
- General dentists, like Dr. Irannezhad, are trained to perform many root canal procedures. For more complex cases, a referral to an endodontist may be necessary. Many root canals can be performed right here in the office by Dr. Irannezhad. For more complex cases, such as a difficult-to-reach molar, a referral may be made to an Endodontist (a root canal specialist) to ensure the best possible outcome.
- What is an oral cancer screening and is it part of my check-up?
- An oral cancer screening is a quick, painless visual inspection of your lips, cheeks, gums, tongue, and throat for any unusual sores or discolorations. Dr. Irannezhad performs this vital part of every routine dental exam to help detect oral cancer early, which is key to successful treatment.
- Are dental implants a good option for replacing missing teeth?
- Dental implants are often an excellent, long-term solution for replacing missing teeth. They provide a secure foundation for a crown or bridge that looks and feels like a natural tooth, and can help preserve the jawbone.
- What can I do about sensitive teeth?
- Sensitivity can be caused by receding gums exposing the tooth root, worn-down enamel, or other issues. Dr. Irannezhad can recommend desensitizing toothpastes, fluoride treatments, and check for cavities or cracked teeth that could be contributing to the problem.
