What We Treat

At Artisan Dental Studio in San Ramon, CA, we offer personalized general dentistry all under one roof. From routine checkups to treating dental concerns, we're here to keep your smile healthy, comfortable, and beautiful. Our patients trust us for exceptional care and lasting results.



We treat and manage:

  • Tooth Decay and Cavities

     We detect and treat cavities early with gentle, effective solutions to preserve your natural teeth and prevent further damage.

  • Bleeding or Inflamed Gums

    Our team addresses gum inflammation and bleeding—often signs of gingivitis or early gum disease—using targeted therapies to restore gum health.

  • Sensitive or Worn Teeth

    If your teeth are sensitive to hot or cold or appear worn down, we offer treatments to strengthen enamel and protect against further wear.

  • Damaged or Missing Teeth

    From chipped teeth to tooth loss, we provide durable, natural-looking restorations like crowns, bridges, and dental implants to rebuild your smile.

  • Early Signs of Gum Disease

    We identify and treat the earliest stages of periodontal disease, helping you avoid more serious complications with timely, proactive care.

  • Preventive Dental Needs

    Regular cleanings, exams, sealants, and fluoride treatments help protect your smile and catch potential issues before they become problems.

  • Bite Issues or Nighttime Grinding

    We assess bite alignment and provide custom nightguards or other solutions to relieve jaw discomfort, protect your teeth, and improve sleep quality.

We believe in comprehensive treatment planning and a whole-health approach to oral care. Whether you're in for preventive maintenance or urgent care, we tailor every visit to support your long-term health and comfort.

Education & Prevention

We are firm believers that education and prevention are the true cornerstones of lifelong dental health.



That’s why we emphasize regular exams and cleanings, checking for signs of gum disease, tooth wear, cavities, and oral cancer—while also reviewing your overall medical history to stay informed.


We provide preventive care to keep dental problems at bay, including:

  • Routine Cleanings and Digital X-Rays

    Our thorough dental cleanings remove plaque and tartar buildup that daily brushing can’t reach, helping to prevent cavities and gum disease. Digital X-rays provide a detailed, low-radiation view of your teeth and jaw, allowing us to detect issues early and plan precise treatments.

  • Dental Sealants and Fluoride Treatments

    Sealants are thin, protective coatings applied to the grooves of your back teeth to prevent decay, especially in children and teens. Fluoride treatments help strengthen enamel and reduce the risk of cavities, making them a simple yet powerful tool in preventive care for all ages.

  • Personalized Home Care Instructions

    We provide customized brushing and flossing guidance based on your unique oral health needs. Our goal is to empower you with the right techniques and tools to maintain a healthy smile between visits.

  • Nutritional and Hygiene Guidance

    Good oral health starts with smart choices. We offer dietary recommendations and hygiene tips to help you avoid decay and gum issues. From understanding sugar’s impact to choosing smile-friendly snacks, we guide you toward habits that support lifelong dental wellness.

Comfort & Compassion

Your comfort is a priority. We’ve created a peaceful and welcoming space to help you feel at ease from the moment you walk in.


Whether it’s your first dental visit or your fiftieth, we take extra care to listen, explain, and guide you through every step of your treatment with gentle, compassionate care.


You’ll feel heard, supported, and confident in your care.
