- Dental ExaminationYou can expect the results of this procedure to last for 3-10 years after the treatment is completed. It must be mentioned that good oral hygiene can prolong the duration, and therefore, you are encouraged to follow good oral care at home and also visit the dentist for regular cleanings and examinations.
- X-rays
- Oral Cancer ScreeningOur dental assessments include blood pressure reading, visual exam, digital x-rays, laser cavity detection, periodontal disease probe, evaluation of existing dental work, extra-oral and intra-oral photographs as well as an oral cancer screening and 3D images of your mouth.
- Teeth CleaningWhen tarter builds up around the gums, it can cause them to be swollen and inflamed. It may even cause your gums to bleed. Dental cleanings can help prevent gum disease.
- Fluoride Treatment
- Dental SealantsApplication of dental sealants can also provide your teeth with an extra level of protection against bacteria and decay. This preventive treatment protects the biting surfaces of back teeth with a layer of composite resin. Back teeth (molars) have natural grooves in which food and bacteria can get trapped, multiply, and then cause dental decay. In many cases, regular toothbrushes cannot always fully clean inside these natural grooves. Dental sealants are painted directly onto the tooth and can last for around 5 years before replacement. This treatment can benefit patients of any age.
- Fillings
- Resin Composite
- VeneersConservative treatments like porcelain veneers or bonding can be used when a front tooth has chipped or cracked because it is just a cosmetic procedure. Tooth damage of the severe kind caused by tooth decay or injuries of any kind makes the tooth weak. It will have an unsightly appearance and could cause severe pain along with the inability to chew.
- CrownsWhen teeth are badly decayed or fractured, a dental crown, also commonly known as a cap, becomes necessary. In fact, crowns are highly recommended as a preventive measure for weakened teeth. When a crown is placed upon a weakened tooth, it provides the strength the tooth needs to be able to chew effectively without causing any further damage. The tooth gets the support it needs because the crown fits completely around and on top of the tooth.
- BridgesWhile most patients opt for porcelain, dental bridges can be made from metal, porcelain or a combination of materials. With adequate oral care, your dental bridge can last approximately 10 to 20 years. Fixed bridges crafted from porcelain are custom color-shaded to match a patient’s tooth’s natural color. No one will notice you have a dental prosthesis.
- Dental BondingIf you have minor cosmetic imperfections in your smile you will find dental bonding is perhaps the fastest and easiest method to repair your dental flaws. During the procedure of dental bonding, the dentist will apply a composite plastic resin that has been color-matched to your tooth to cover any cosmetic concerns you have such as gaps, chips, cracks, cavities and uneven lengths.
