SERVICES WE PROVIDE

Routine Exam

During a dental exam, the dentist or hygienist will: Evaluate your overall health and oral hygiene, risk of tooth decay, root decay, and gum or bone disease. Evaluate your need for tooth restoration or tooth replacement. Check your bite and jaw for problems.

Dental Fillings

A filling helps to restore a tooth damaged by decay back to its normal function and shape, and helps prevent further decay by eliminating areas where bacteria can enter the tooth. Composite (white) filling material is normally used.

Tooth Extraction

If a tooth has been broken or damaged by decay, your dentist will try to fix it with a filling, crown or other dental treatment. But when there's too much damage for the tooth to be repaired, the tooth may need to be extracted from its socket in the bone.

Dental Hygiene

Good dental hygiene is the most successful way of preventing long-term dental problems. This ensures that any treatments you receive will be effective and long-lasting, and helps to raise your general level of well-being.

Root Canal Treatment

During root canal or endodontic treatment, the inflamed or infected pulp is removed and the inside of the tooth is carefully cleaned and disinfected, then filled and sealed with a rubber-like material called gutta-percha. Afterwards, the tooth is restored with a crown or filling for protection.

Dentures

Dentures are custom-made replacements for missing teeth and can be taken out and put back into your mouth. While dentures take some getting used to, and will never feel exactly the same as natural teeth, today's dentures are natural looking and more comfortable than ever.

Teeth Whitening

Teeth whitening works especially well for heavily stained or discoloured teeth. It contains 6% hydrogen peroxide or 16% carbamide peroxide teeth whitening gel that is added to a custom-made whitening tray, fitting your teeth seamlessly. This is worn for ninety minutes per day or during the night for up to 4 weeks until a desired result is achieved. We only use safe concentrations of whitening gels.

Sedation

We offer Intravenous Sedation or IV sedation which is especially useful for those who are anxious about dental procedures. With this process, a sedative drug is injected into your vein, just before treatment begins which induces sleepiness, complete unawareness of the procedure and a reduction in anxiety.

Dental Bridges

If you have missing teeth your dentist can close — or bridge — the gaps in your smile with a dental bridge. Bridges are made up of artificial teeth with a precious metal base which adds strength structure and ensures that they are hard wearing. Porcelain is usually added to the base to make it look more like real teeth, giving it a natural appearance that blends in.

Dental Crowns

A dental crown is designed to strengthen what is left of the structure of a decayed or damaged tooth. It fits over the remaining part of the tooth and mimics its natural shape and colour. In this way, the crown doesn’t look out of place and fits in with the rest of your teeth.
