Family Dentistry for
Claremont Patients

Chino Valley Smile Center offers everything from routine checkups to complete smile restoration in one practice, so Claremont families can rely on a single trusted team. Our services include:

General dentistry

Exams, cleanings, and preventive care keep your teeth healthy between visits. We monitor changes closely and treat small problems before they spread.

Cosmetic dentistry

Veneers, Lumineers, and other cosmetic treatments brighten and reshape your smile. Dr. Afifi tailors each result to look natural and suit you.

Teeth whitening

Professional whitening removes stains from coffee, wine, and everyday life. You get even, lasting brightness that home kits rarely match.

Dental implants

Dental implants replace missing teeth with sturdy, natural looking restorations. They give you back a complete smile and a confident bite.

Invisalign

Invisalign straightens teeth with comfortable, nearly invisible aligners. You keep your routine, your diet, and your confidence during treatment.

Root canal treatment

A gentle root canal removes infection and relieves tooth pain while saving your natural tooth. Most patients feel better soon after treatment.

Crowns & dentures

Custom crowns strengthen damaged teeth, and dentures restore missing ones. We design both to feel comfortable and look like natural teeth.

Periodontal exams

Regular gum exams catch periodontal disease before it damages your teeth. Healthy gums support a healthy smile for the long run.

Oral cancer screenings

Each checkup includes a fast oral cancer screening that takes just a few minutes. Early detection protects your health and your peace of mind.

Emergency dentistry

Tooth pain, a broken crown, or a dental injury needs fast care. We reserve time for emergencies and aim to treat you the same day.

Sleep apnea solutions

Custom oral appliances help manage sleep apnea and quiet snoring. They offer a comfortable, mask free alternative to CPAP.

I have gone to this office a few times since 2021, mostly with my husband that passed. Dr. Afifi, Katie, Sonja, Jessica and hygienist are professional and explained in detail of my treatments. Other staff members were awesome too! Another bonus is there’s a Finance Dept with zero interest for 12 months, depending on what you select. I’m a happy with Dr. Afifi and staff. Give them a try!

- Sandra M.
