- Dental ExaminationPediatric dentists are dedicated to the oral health of children from infancy through the teen years. They have the experience and qualifications to care for a child’s teeth, gums, and mouth throughout the various stages of childhood. Children are not just small adults. They are not always able to be patient and cooperative during a dental exam. Pediatric dentists know how to examine and treat children.
- X-rays
- Teeth CleaningGum disease is caused by a bacterial infection that is hidden below your gums. Dental cleanings can effectively treat the bacteria, but when you return home the cycle often continues. Bacterial cells grow back in just hours after a cleaning, and toothbrush, rinse and floss can’t reach deep enough to address the infection at home.

- Deep CleaningYour dentist may perform non-surgical procedures to treat early-stage periodontitis. Root scaling, planning, and deep cleaning help to remove bacteria from your gum tissue. Antibiotics can also eliminate oral infections. If you have advanced periodontal disease, you may need dentistry services such as flap surgery, soft tissue grafts, or guided tissue regeneration. Your general or periodontal dentist can help you to prevent gum disease with regular cleanings and oral health exams.
- DenturesA general or periodontal dentist can identify the signs of periodontal disease. You may experience symptoms such as gums that bleed easily. Other common symptoms of periodontal disease include swollen, tender, or red gums and gums that have pulled away from the roots of your teeth. Persistent bad breath, loosening of your teeth, and poorly fitting dentures are all signs of advancing periodontal disease.
- Dental ImplantsDental implants are artificial roots and teeth (usually titanium) that are surgically placed into the upper or lower jaw bone by a dentist, Periodontist or Oral Surgeon – a specialist of the gums and supporting bone. The teeth attached to implants are very natural looking and often enhance or restore a patient’s smile!
- Oral SurgeryOral surgery deals with the treatment and ongoing management of irregularities and pathology of the jaw and mouth that require surgical intervention.Surgically removing teeth is the most common procedure that oral surgeons perform, but oral surgery as a specialty has a broad scope. This includes managing hard and soft tissue pathology, oral infections, dentoalveolar trauma and oro-facial pain.
- Flap Surgery
- Maxillofacial Surgery
- OrthodonticsOrthodontics is the branch of dentistry concerned with the growth of the face, the development of teeth and jaws and the correction and prevention of abnormalities. Orthodontics has a strong hospital-based consultant service which concentrates on treating the more severe abnormalities. That said, orthodontic specialty practice in the high street is well-developed and expanding with opportunities for NHS.
- Invisalign OrthodonticsThe Invisalign System works begins by first creating a series of trays that will each moving your teeth gradually until the end result is achieved. At the end of each two-week period, you will switch trays. Throughout the process, you will visit Dr. Mallonee every six weeks to ensure treatment is progressing as planned. Once your treatment is complete, you will likely wear a clear retainer to ensure your new smile stays in place.
- BracesTraditional braces consist of standard metal brackets that are adhered to your teeth with an adhesive and connected by wire. Arch wires are passed through the brackets and attached to the bands. They require periodic tightening so pressure can gradually straighten your teeth and align your jaw as needed. Today’s braces are smaller, lighter and show far less metal than in the past. They come in bright colors for kids as well as clear styles preferred by many adults.
- Teeth WhiteningMany patients prefer to use an at-home teeth whitening method to brighten their teeth. These affordable, flexible alternatives typically include custom-fit molds, whitening gel available at different levels of concentration in amounts dependent upon each patient’s needs, and precise instructions on how to achieve the level of whiteness you’re aiming for.
