I have been a patient of Dr Shrestha for over 9 years. The other day I went to her new location in Torrance and wow! I was so happy to see how welcoming this facility was- parking was great- and I didn't have to wait long. It's not an easy thing finding a good dentist, so I am incredibly thankful to have Dr Shrestha. Incredible, caring, patient, dedicated dentist.

Great office! Such amazing service! And such a beautiful dental assistant. I had been to many practices where all they really cared about was the money, and you could tell simply by the way you were treated the moment you walked in. The first person you get greeted by walking in was Yancy, she was very kind and explained things to me fully in my treatment plan and answered all the questions I had. As far as meeting Dr. Rosi, she was very gentle and very kind. She did her best to ensure that I was comfortable and experienced the least pain possible. Overall it was a very pleasant experience, and I look forward to continuing my treatment with this office and they're lovely staff.

Had to do a last minute appointment due to a filling falling out and they were able to see me within a week! Dr. Rosi and her staff are extremely pleasant to interact with. They made sure i wouldn't leave without being completely satisfied and comfortable with my fillings. They are very professional and during the more uncomfortable parts of the procedures they made sure it was done swiftly yet correctly and always kept me informed during the process. I Highly recommend Dr. Rosi and her staff to anyone, especially those who aren't the biggest fans of going to the dentist, because they might even make you WANT to go back for the experience.

As you can see she has all 5 star reviews and deserves each one. Everyone in the office is very welcoming & friendly. I highly recommend coming here. If you're the type that feels uneasy about dental visits Dr. Shrestha will make you relaxed. I even scheduled my next appointment in advance which is something I never do but I trust coming back to Dr. Shrestha. I may be a new customer but I can assure you I will not go to any other dentist.

You must make an appointment with Dr. Shrestha! She takes the time to educate her patients and answer all their questions. Dr. S is a consummate professional in every way and she does everything she can to make you feel welcome in her office. Her office staff is also very warm and welcoming. She's been taking care of my teeth for several years now and I am a more informed patient as a result of being her patient. Plus I am complimented all the time on my gorgeous white teeth (no one guesses they are porcelain veneers!).

I have always had a huge fear of dentists, thankfully I found Dr Rosi!!  I had veneers put on my teeth and her hand was so gentle it was a pleasant surprise. I have returned to get a cavity filled, and my teeth cleaned. I highly recommend this office!!!

Dr. Shrestha is the best in the business. Loyal, caring, funny and takes away all your fears of the dentist. I enjoy coming to her (for over 6 years) and all of the people that I have referred to her also enjoy her personality and dentist expertise. If you are looking for a good dentist one you can keep for years, Dr. Shrestha is your dentist! Don't forget to say hi to Yancy at the front desk!

My son had an accidents while ridding his bike and knocked down a tooth, luckily Doctor Rosi was there to help him. She is the best doctor in town, highly recommended and trustworthy. She not only took care of my son professionally but emotionally. We love her.

Having "a few" years of not visiting a dentist, I was referred to Dr. Rosi. Dreading the experience, Dr. Rosi was very down to earth and we had a good time laughing at my own doing of needing an extra extra deep cleaning. The techs are funny and made my time there enjoyable. Dr. Rosi's bed side manner, should make it easy for me to come in regularly and not wait for another "extra extra cleaning"! Thank you Dr. Rosi.

WISDOM TEETH / ORAL SURGERY

There are many reasons that a tooth may need to be extracted. It may be decayed beyond repair or fractured. Often teeth, like wisdom teeth, are taken out to prevent future problems. It may also be recommended that teeth be removed to allow for proper orthodontic alignment.

WHY GET ORAL SURGERY?

While the removal of wisdom teeth is the most well-known type of oral surgery, there are many reasons why oral surgery may be required, including:

  • Repairing or treating serious conditions affecting a patient’s teeth, palate, lips, jaw or face
  • Alleviating problems due to obstructed sleep apnea, infections or facial pain
  • Repairing maxillofacial region damage caused by a serious accident or injury
WHAT IS AN ORAL SURGEON?

Oral surgeons, also known as oral and maxillofacial surgeons, are qualified dentists who have completed an additional four years of specialized training. Their advanced education includes anesthesiology and the diagnosis and surgical treatment of defects, injuries and diseases of the mouth, jaw, teeth, neck, gums and other soft tissues of the head.

WHEN ARE YOU REFERRED TO AN ORAL SURGEON?

Your dentist or specialist will refer you to an oral surgeon in many cases, including:

REFERRAL BY YOUR DENTIST
  • An impacted tooth is diagnosed – when a permanent (adult) tooth has not yet erupted from the bone, but is moving into or pushing against an adjacent tooth
  • A lesion, tumor or other tissue of the mouth or jaw requires biopsy or removal or if oral cancer is suspected
  • A dental implant is required to replace a missing tooth or support a bridge
  • One or more teeth must be removed
  • A tooth breaks off at the gum line and it (or its root fragments) must be removed
  • Corrective surgery to soft tissues or bones in the maxillofacial region is needed
  • Diagnosis and treatment of infections in the maxillofacial region are needed
  • Facial pain exists, including pain suspected from TMJ (Temporomandibular Joint Disease)
  • Obstructive sleep apnea is suspected
WHAT ARE SOME COMMON ORAL SURGERIES PERFORMED?
TOOTH EXTRACTION

After the application of anesthesia, special tools are inserted between the tooth and gum surrounding the tooth. The tooth is moved back and forth within its socket (the bone that encases the tooth’s root) until it separates from the ligament that holds the tooth in place. Sometimes a tooth is cut into small pieces (sectioned) before it is removed.

IMPACTED TOOTH EXTRACTION

The method for removing an impacted tooth will depend on how many roots it has and its location under your gum. Patient sedation is often used in addition to the application of an anesthesia to the impacted area.

A gum tissue flap is created to access bone tissue, and a small opening is made in the bone that covers the impacted tooth. The impacted tooth is then cut into small pieces (sectioned) and removed through the opening. The gum tissue flap is then repositioned and sutured in place.

WISDOM TEETH EXTRACTION

Third molars, also called wisdom teeth, are the last set of permanent teeth to erupt in a person’s mouth and are the ones least needed. Wisdom teeth can endanger a patient’s dental health when:

  • They erupt through your gum, but your jaw is too small to hold them. As a result, they force other teeth out of alignment and can damage your bite.
  • They do not erupt through your gum and are not in a normal position. As a result, they crowd the roots of other teeth, force them out of alignment, and can damage your bite.

When your jaw is too small to accommodate normal wisdom teeth, it is common for gum or jaw discomfort and swelling to occur. In addition, there is a greater risk of developing gum (periodontal) disease.

SURGERY TO REMOVE WISDOM TEETH IS TYPICALLY THE BEST COURSE OF ACTION. IF A WISDOM TOOTH HAS FULLY ERUPTED THROUGH THE GUM, A STANDARD TOOTH EXTRACTION IS PERFORMED. IF THE TOOTH HAS NOT ERUPTED THROUGH THE GUM, AN IMPACTED TOOTH EXTRACTION METHOD IS USED.
