Dental Hygiene
Just 61.7% of American adults visited the dentist in the past year, meaning that many people do not receive the twice annual dental hygiene visits recommended by the American Dental Association. This failure to maintain proper dental hygiene can have far-reaching consequences. Poor dental hygiene leads to tooth decay, gum disease, cosmetic flaws, and even loss of teeth. Visiting Dr. Laurence Rifkin will restore your trust in dental providers and keep your teeth safe. Dr. Rifkin is an experienced cosmetic dentist who has treated more than 70,000 patients and he oversees a team considered to be among the best dental hygienists Beverly Hills has to offer.
