Family Dentistry in Beverly Hills, CA
Medically reviewed by Dr. Kayla Lebeau, DDS
One practice your whole family can use
Family dentistry means you do not need a different office for your six-year-old, your teenager in braces and your father who needs an implant. The same team sees all of you, in the same building on Brighton Way, with one set of records and one number to call.
Most of what we do is ordinary and preventive: an exam, a cleaning, a filling caught early. That is the point. Almost every expensive dental problem started as a small one that nobody looked at.
- First visitAbout an hour
- Ages seenChildren through adults
- X-raysDigital, only when needed
- If you are nervousSedation is available
This is probably you if
- You have moved to the area and need a dentist you can stay with
- It has been a few years and you would rather not be lectured about it
- Your child needs a first visit and you want it to go well
- Something is sensitive to cold, or catches your floss in the same spot every time
- You are tired of coordinating four family members across three offices
If it has been a long time, say so when you book. We plan more time and start with looking, not drilling.
What a first visit actually involves
- We listen firstWhat brought you in, what has hurt before, what you would change about your smile. Also your medical history and medications, because both change what is safe to do.
- A proper lookA full exam. Teeth, existing fillings and crowns, gums, bite, and a check of the soft tissues for anything that should not be there.
- Images only where neededDigital X-rays show decay between teeth and bone levels that no examination can see. Where a case needs it, we have 3D imaging in the building.
- A cleaningScaling and polishing if your gums are healthy. If they are not, we treat that first rather than polishing over it.
- A plan you can readWhat needs doing now, what can wait and watch, and what is optional. With costs before anything starts.
The rest of what happens here
Family dentistry is the front door. When something more is needed, it is done in this practice rather than referred across town.
- When a tooth hurts: fillings, root canal treatment, or extraction when a tooth cannot be kept.
- When gums bleed: gingivitis caught early, or periodontal treatment when it has gone further.
- For children: sealants on new adult molars and mouth guards for sport.
- For grinding and snoring: oral appliance therapy, including for sleep apnea.
- When something breaks today: emergency care. Call, do not wait for a routine slot.
How often should we come in?
Every six months suits most people. If you have gum disease, a history of decay, or you smoke, more often is genuinely better value than the alternative.
At what age should my child first be seen?
Around their first birthday for a look, and certainly by three. Early visits are short and friendly on purpose, the goal is a child who is not frightened of the chair at ten.
Do you take my insurance?
Bring your plan details when you book and we will check your coverage before you are in the chair, not after.
What if I have not been to a dentist in years?
You will not be told off. It is more common than you think, and the first visit is mostly looking and talking.
Can the whole family be seen on the same day?
Often, yes. Ask when you book and we will try to group the appointments.
