Dental Implants
Dental implants are titanium anchors surgically placed into the jawbone to support replacement teeth. They offer a permanent solution for missing teeth, functioning like natural roots. Our process includes precise placement, osseointegration, and custom crown attachment. Implants prevent bone loss, restore chewing ability, and provide a natural appearance. Patients benefit from improved facial structure and confidence in their smile.
Sedation Dentistry
Sedation dentistry uses medication to help patients relax during dental procedures. We offer nitrous oxide, oral sedation, and IV options tailored to individual needs. This service benefits those with dental phobia, sensitive teeth, or complex treatments requiring extended visits. Patients remain conscious but deeply relaxed, with minimal memory of the procedure. It enables efficient care while ensuring comfort and safety.
Dental Veneers
Dental veneers are thin porcelain shells bonded to the front teeth to correct discoloration, chips, or gaps. They provide a durable, stain-resistant solution for aesthetic improvement. The process involves enamel preparation, impression taking, and custom fabrication. Veneers mimic natural tooth translucency and can last over 15 years with proper care. They offer immediate transformation of smile appearance and confidence.
Root Canal Therapy
Root canal therapy removes infected pulp from inside a tooth to alleviate pain and prevent extraction. Using advanced techniques, we clean and seal the root canals, preserving natural tooth structure. The procedure includes local anesthesia, precise instrumentation, and post-treatment restoration. Patients experience relief from infection symptoms and retain their natural bite function. Success rates exceed 95% with proper follow-up care.
Pediatric Dental Care
Our pediatric services focus on preventive care and early intervention for children aged 2 and up. Treatments include exams, cleanings, fluoride applications, and sealants. We employ child-friendly techniques to reduce anxiety and establish positive dental habits. The team is experienced in managing special needs and developmental concerns. Early education ensures lifelong oral health awareness and routine compliance.

After several months of struggling to find an endodontist to retreat a badly failed root canal on Medi-Cal insurance, I'm fortunate to have found this office (I was referred by the endodontics department at the University of Loma Linda). This is an exceptionally well run office, speaking from the experience of seeking treatment at a handful of dental offices before finding Cypress Dental. Doctors and staff are eminently professional. I was treated promptly, and I have complete confidence in the quality of the work.

I am soooo happy! This place is GREAT. I can't believe the negative reviews I read because my experience was nothing but amazing. I came in for a root canal. I was very nervous because the last time I had one done I left in tears and pain. (Not at cypress dental) Dr Elsherif was so gentle and I didn't feel a dam thing. Honestly I barely even felt the needle they used to numb me. I was also so sad thinking that I was going to loose the crown over the tooth that needed the root canal, but the dentist was able to save that for me as-well.
Not only was everything pain free and easy, but I also don't need to worry about getting a replacement crown now. 11 outa 10 so happy. Also thanks to all the sweet staff who make the customer service and overall experience exceptional. Recommend this place to anyone looking for a dentist!

Thank you Cypress Dental for the great customer service- during the holiday it is so hard to find a dentist that is willing to see patients. Dr Ahmed, took care of my Mom as a walk-in.
