Periodontal Treatment
Periodontal disease affects more than three-fourths of all people, regardless of race, nationality, or socioeconomic levels. Periodontal diseases range from simple gum inflammation to serious disease that results in major damage to the soft tissue and bone that support the teeth. In the worst cases, teeth are lost.
Implant Placements
A dental implant is a titanium-based “root” employed in dentistry to support restorations that resemble a tooth or group of teeth that are used to replace any missing teeth due to periodontal disease, an injury, or some other reason.
Invisalign
Invisalign ® is a new o reatment system that works to straighten teeth through the use of a series of clear plastic molds (aligners). Invisalign® “invisible” braces eliminate the metallic smile that is characteristic of traditional orthodontic braces. View this page to learn more about invisalign®, including information about cost and the benefits of using the clear retainer system.
Tooth whitening
Tooth whitening is a way of lightening the natural colour of teeth using bleaching methods.
Dental Bridges
A dental bridge is a false tooth or teeth, known as a pontic, which is fused between two porcelain crowns to fill in the area left by a missing tooth or teeth. The two crowns holding it in place are attached onto your teeth on each side of the false tooth.
Sedation Dentistry
Sedation dentistry is used to provide a relaxing and anxiety-free experience for certain people receiving dental treatment. It enables individuals too afraid to go to the dentist to receive the dental care they need while avoiding the common apprehension known as dental phobia.
Pediatric Dentistry
Pediatric dentistry is an age-defined specialty that provides both preventive and therapeutic dental care for infants, children and adolescents. It is very important that primary teeth are kept in place until they are lost naturally.
Mini Dental Implants
Mini dental implants (MDI) are small diameter dental implants with a diameter of less than three millimeters. Patients can be fitted with these implants and begin using the newly stabilized denture immediately because these implants do not require months of waiting time to integrate.
Dental Veneers
Dental veneers (sometimes called porcelain veneers or dental porcelain laminates) are wafer-thin, custom-made shells of tooth-colored materials designed to cover the front surface of teeth to improve your appearance. These shells are bonded to the front of the teeth changing their color, shape, size, or length.
Lumineers
Lumineers are a brand of porcelain veneers that can be fitted to your existing teeth without the need to drill or grind them down. Their selling point is that they are stronger than most other brands of veneers, so they can be made thinner.
Tooth Decay – Symptoms
The signs and symptoms of cavities and tooth decay vary depending on their extent and location. When a cavity is just beginning, you may not have any symptoms at all. Tooth decay does not cause any symptoms until it has reached an advanced stage, usually until you have a cavity or infected tooth.
Tooth extraction
There are a number of reasons why your teeth may need to be extracted.
Preventive Dental Care
Prevention of dental disease starts at home with good oral hygiene such regular and proper brushing, flossing and sometimes use of mouth rinses, at-home fluoride applications and a healthy and balanced diet. Good preventative treatment continues with your dentist who can promote, restore, and maintain your dental health. Dental health professionals most often look for early signs of periodontal disease, dental decay, and other changes in the soft tissue of the mouth that could lead to oral cancer.
Root Canal Treatment
Root canal treatment is a dental procedure that replace a tooth’s damaged or infected pulp with filling in and sealing off the nerve space inside the tooth so no contaminates can seep in or seep out. The procedure is also known as endodontic treatment. The vast majority of people who undergo root canal treatment can expect a functional tooth after the treatment.
