From routine cleanings and fillings to bruxism devises, Vineyard Valley Dental offers a full array of dental services to help you maintain healthy teeth. To help you understand your options, we've included descriptions of some of our leading services on this page.

Initial Oral Examination
Your initial oral examination includes a visual examination, charting, periodontal probing, diagnosis and treatment recommendations. We will also take x-rays, which includes the panoramic x-ray for proper diagnosis of the anterior (front) and posterior (back) teeth as well as the bite-wing x-ray series for proper diagnosis of proximal decay of posterior teeth.

Teeth Bleaching
Our state-of-the-art, in-office Power Bleaching system will make your teeth whiter in less than 1.5 hours. Another option is our home bleaching system you take with you for results in 2 weeks. You can also consider a combination program of both systems for optimal, long-term results.

Crowns and Veneers
You can have a new smile with all-porcelain crowns on the anterior and posterior teeth.

Fillings: Resin
Tooth-colored fillings that are light-cured to match your teeth.

Root Canals
We perform root canals on anterior,premolar and molar teeth.

Periodontal Treatment
You should have a standard cleaning at least twice a year. A periodontal treatment includes an Adult Prophy (basic cleaning). If it has been over a year since your last cleaning, possible treatment will include either Periodontal Scaling (deeper) or Root Planning and Scaling (requires anesthetic).

Mouth Guards
Whether you are an athlete or casual sports participant, you should wear a mouth guard to protect your teeth. If you grind your teeth while you sleep, a bite guard will help reduce symptoms of TMJ. We custom make mouth guards in both soft and hard materials.

Removable Dental Prosthesis
For missing teeth, we can make dentures or removable partials for you.

Testimonials

After suffering from severe migraine and tension headaches for over 15 years, I have finally found something that prevents the pain. I have tried many medications and other devices, but the NTI (nightgaurd) has greatly improved my quality of life.

Hi Dr. Ruzzamenti and staff,

It is my pleasure to write this note for prospective patients seeking references. I do this out of gratitude, because so many people compliment me on the outstanding appearance, I now have as a result of the excellent restorative dental treatment I received from your care.

My dentist is Dr. John Ruzzamenti work (951) 296-3358 email officeinfo@vineyardvalleydental.com I went to some 9 dentists to screen them to do my work, which was extremely extensive, because of most teeth being damaged and crooked as well. I didn’t want an inexpensive, cheap job, but I also didn’t want to pay fees that were far greater than what seemed to be the norm. I screened not only the dentist, but their staff as well. Dr. Ruzzamenti and his staff stood out as the best choice of all my screenings. The staff at Ruzzamenti’s is a ten, as well as Dr. Ruzzamenti. When I was a teen, I considered, office location, staff and doctor courtesy, promptness, hygiene of staff and facilities, fees and payment plans, up to date on current dental treatment methods, quality of work and an articulate way to convey what is to be done, diversity of capabilities, sensitivity to pain potentials and the ability to dental with pain issues, appointment flexibility, ambiance and any sense of “time stress”. You will be very positively impressed with your experience.

Sincerely,
Dr. Paul J. Wilson

Dear Dr. Ruzzamenti,

A couple of weeks ago I was in your office getting a crown and a filling replaced. As unpleasant as the procedure was, you and your staff went out of your way to put me at ease. Allowing me to borrow your portable CD player drowned out the drill and the sunglasses shaded my eyes, so I could truly relax. I was thoroughly impressed with you professionalism and kindness as you talked me through the procedure. To top it all off, your checkup phone call the next day was the first I have ever gotten from any dentist. Thank you so much for being the exceptional dentist you are! Enjoy the holidays and New Year with your family.
Sincerely,
Trista S.

To the staff at Vineyard Valley Dental,

I would like to take this opportunity to express my appreciation for the excellent care I received recently at your office. I have been reluctant to go to the dentist for years. My wife spoke with Dr. Ruzzamenti at her appointment regarding my fears. He advised her that he would make every effort to calm my nerves and make my visit pleasant. Dr Ruzzamenti and staff went above and beyond. I had a very pleasant experience and am no longer fearful of the dentist. You should all be commended for the excellent care and concern for your patients. Thank you so much.
