Care about protecting your long-term oral and overall health
At Enhance Dentist, we assess your oral condition and create a personalized hygiene schedule based on your needs.
At Enhance Dentist in La Crescenta, we provide a smooth, comfortable cleaning and exam experience designed to keep your smile healthy, refreshed and protected at every visit.
We begin by reviewing your medical history, current concerns and oral-health goals. This ensures your care is safe, personalized and fully tailored to you.
We take quick, low-radiation X-rays to detect hidden issues such as early decay or signs of gum or bone loss.
Your hygienist removes hard buildup that brushing and flossing can’t reach. This step protects your gums and prevents cavities.
We polish your teeth to remove surface stains and smooth the enamel for a brighter, freshly cleaned look.
We floss between each tooth, assess your gums and check for inflammation, recession or early periodontal concerns.
Dr. Kim examines your teeth, gums, bite and overall oral health to identify issues early, before they become bigger problems.
You’ll receive clear, pressure-free recommendations on how to maintain or improve your oral health between visits.
Choosing the right general and family dentist is essential for long-term oral health. Here’s what sets us apart:
Routine cleanings, exams, fluoride, gum evaluations and more—all in one place for complete, consistent care.
Digital X-rays and advanced diagnostic technology help us detect issues earlier and keep your treatment minimally invasive.
Our team focuses on comfort and communication, ensuring every visit feels easy, relaxing and stress-free.
We don’t rush. Your hygiene plan is tailored to your gum health, lifestyle and long-term goals.
Patients throughout La Crescenta and Glendale choose Dr. Kim for his thorough approach, kind chairside manner and commitment to long-term oral health.
We accept Medi-Cal and most PPO insurance plans. Our team will gladly help you verify your coverage before your procedure so you know exactly what to expect. If you don’t have insurance or need additional help, we offer flexible payment plans to make your care affordable.
"Couldn’t recommend this place enough"
I’ve been coming here the past 6 years give or take and always have such a pleasant experience! It’s great to know that current practices and techniques are constantly being refined, instead of just adhering to the norm and being stuck in the past. They recently fit me for a night guard and used new technology to get a “mold” for me without having to physically put my teeth against a material. Smooth, seamless, and right out the door! Couldn’t recommend this place enough.
"The best dental experience I’ve had to date!"
The best dental experience I’ve had to date! Dr. Kim was fast, efficient, kind, and did excellent work. His dental hygienist had the most calming presence and made sure I was comfortable the entire time. After not being in a dental chair for years I was anxious going in, but my experience went so well, any fears I had completely disappeared. I’m so grateful to Dr. Kim and his amazing staff. I plan on staying with Enhance Dentist.
Most patients should come in every six months. Some may need cleanings every 3–4 months depending on gum health.
They remove plaque and tartar that brushing can’t reach, prevent gum disease and cavities, and keep your smile healthy long-term.
Cleanings are typically gentle and comfortable. If your gums are sensitive, we adjust our technique to keep you relaxed.
Dr. Kim checks your teeth, gums, bite and oral tissues for signs of decay, infection, gum disease or other concerns.
Not always. Digital X-rays are taken only when needed to evaluate areas that can’t be seen during a visual exam.
