Dental implants are titanium posts placed in your jawbone to support artificial teeth. Unlike dentures or bridges, implants fuse with your bone, offering a lasting solution that looks and feels like natural teeth.

We start with a thorough dental exam, including 3D scans and x-rays, to determine your suitability for implants.

1. Consultation

Using advanced technology, we plan the precise placement of your implant.

2. Placement Planning

A titanium post is surgically placed in your jawbone. Over time, it fuses with the bone to provide a stable base.

3. Implant Surgery

After healing, a custom-made crown is attached, ready for use.

4. Crown Placement

Supporting Procedures

Platelet-Rich Fibrin (PRF): Enhances healing and improves implant success by promoting tissue regeneration.

Bone Grafts: Used when there’s insufficient bone density, creating a stable foundation for the implant.

Sinus Augmentation: Increase bone in the upper jaw by lifting the sinus membrane and adding bone graft to create a secure implant foundation.

Dental Implants

Misaligned teeth can lead to problems like difficulty chewing, speech issues, and a higher risk of cavities and gum disease. Braces not only improve the appearance of your smile but also enhance your overall oral health.

Types of Braces

Metal braces are reliable for correcting a wide range of dental issues, though they are more noticeable.

Metal Braces

The Damon system is a more comfortable option that may require fewer adjustments and reduce treatment time.

Damon Braces

Invisalign is nearly invisible, which is ideal for those seeking a discreet option. It allows for easy cleaning since they can be removed.

Invisalign

When to get braces?

Children (7+)

Teens (12-18)

Adults (18+)

Early evaluations can prevent serious issues. There may be indications for interceptive treatments, such as growth modification or removable appliances.

This is the common time for braces as most permanent teeth have come in.

It’s never too late to improve your smile with modern, less visible options like Invisalign.

Braces

Are your teeth stained from coffee, tea, red wine, or smoking? Or perhaps aging has left your smile looking dull? Professional teeth whitening can help you regain a bright, confident smile.

Gums and lips are protected to prevent irritation.

1. Preparation

Whitening gel is applied and activated by light or a chemical process.

2. Application

The gel will be reapplied by the dentist to enhance the process.

3. Monitoring

Maintain bright teeth by avoiding colored foods and drinks, keeping up with cleanings and check-ups, and using at-home whitening to extend results.

4. Aftercare

2 effective options

Philips ZOOM!

This whitening system uses LED light to activate the whitening process, which targets deep stains. This is the most popular, and many patients see results immediately.

Opalescence™ Boost™

This system is chemically activated and produces effective results without the need for light. This system is more affordable and comfortable in the chair.

Teeth Whitening

Missing teeth can make it difficult to eat and speak and can reduce one's willingness to speak and smile. Dentures provide a solution to these issues, with many types available to suit different needs and budgets.

Types of Dentures

Purpose: Short-term solution after tooth extraction.

Benefits: Provides a functional set of teeth while your wound heals or while you decide on a more permanent option.

Use: Wear during the day and remove at night. The plate may become loose over time.

Temporary Plate

Purpose: For those with some missing teeth but still have natural ones remaining.

Benefits: More durable and long-lasting than temporary plates, and more affordable than fixed restorations.

Use: Wear during the day and remove at night. Proper care will extend its lifespan.

Partial Denture

Purpose: For replacing all natural teeth, both upper and lower sets.

Benefits: Custom-made, removable for cleaning, and helps maintain function and facial structure.

Use: Wear during the day and remove at night.

Complete Denture

Process

1. Examination

Your dentist assesses your overall dental health, including gum condition and bone structure. This is to determine which denture option is suitable for you.

3. Delivery

The final dentures are fitted and adjusted for comfort.

2. Impressions & Try-ins

Impressions will be taken, and you will return a few days later for bite wax try-ins. Multiple visits may be required for try-ins to ensure the denture and bite are satisfactory.

4. Recheck

A follow-up appointment is scheduled. You will know how your denture feels after you have used it, and you may need to make adjustments. During the follow-up visit, the dentist will make changes based on your usage.

Denture

If you have cavities, tooth sensitivity or chipped teeth, it may be time to consider a dental filling. Early intervention can prevent extensive and costly treatments down the line, preserving your tooth's health and function.

Fillings based on tooth surface

Ideal for repairing chips or cavities with a natural color match.

Front Teeth

Used on the chewing surfaces of molars and premolars (back teeth).

Class I

Used for cavities that extend between the contact points of adjacent teeth.

Class II

Placed along the gum line on the front or back teeth to treat decay or tooth wear, often due to abrasion or abfraction.

Class V

When fillings aren’t enough

Deep Cavities

If decay reaches the tooth's pulp,

a root canal may be needed instead of a filling.

Insufficient Tooth Structure

When significant tooth structure is lost, a crown or onlay might be necessary for support and durability.

Dental Filling

A crown is a custom-made cap placed over a damaged tooth to restore its shape, strength, and appearance. A bridge, on the other hand, replaces one or more missing teeth by anchoring artificial teeth to the surrounding natural teeth.

Crowns

Purpose: A crown is a custom-made cap that covers a damaged or weakened tooth, restoring its shape, size, strength, and appearance.
When Needed: Crowns are ideal for severe decay, cracked or broken teeth, post-root canal protection, worn-down teeth, or cosmetic improvements.

Bridges

Purpose: A bridge replaces one or more missing teeth by "bridging" the gap with crowns on either side and a false tooth (pontic) in between.
When Needed: Bridges offer a cost-effective alternative to implants, particularly when bone levels are insufficient or implants are too expensive.

Implant Supported Bridges

Purpose: An implant-supported bridge helps replace multiple missing teeth by anchoring onto the implants.
When Needed: Ideal for areas with more than two missing teeth, where there is enough durability to withstand biting force and it is more cost-friendly than multiple single implants.

Ceramic Crowns

Crowns

Process

1. Removal of decay and shaping the tooth.

2. An impression is taken to create a custom crown.

3. A temporary crown is capped on to protect the tooth while the permanent one is made.

4. The permanent crown is cemented onto the tooth.

5. Recheck

Bridges

Process

1. Preparation: The teeth on either side of the gap are prepared.

2. Impression: An impression is taken to create a custom bridge.

3. Temporary Bridge: A temporary bridge is placed while the permanent one is made.

4.Placement: The permanent bridge is cemented in place.

Implant Supported Bridges

Process

1. Implant Placement: Implants are surgically placed in the jawbone.

2. Healing Period: Implants integrate with the bone over a few months.

3. Bridge Placement: A custom bridge is attached to the implants.

Involves preparation of one tooth. That tooth might have been severely damaged or root canal treated before.

Involves preparation of at least two natural neighboring teeth. Good oral hygiene is important, as secondary decay can develop.

Fixing the bridge over at least two implants. No natural tooth is lost.

Crowns & Bridges

Are you unhappy with the appearance of your teeth due to discoloration, chips, or gaps? Dental veneers might be the answer to achieving the smile you’ve always wanted. Here’s a quick overview of what veneers are and how they can help.

Example Case

The patient presented at our clinic with old, defective veneers with yellow crack lines. There's also gum recession that goes past the veneer margin. After careful evaluation, the dentist replaced the old set of veneers with new ceramic ones, resulting in a brighter smile. A good way to maintain your crowns and veneers in good condition is to do a check-up every 6 months to detect early issues.

Ceramic Veneers

Ceramic veneers are thin shells, custom-made in a lab for each patient and bonded to the tooth surface. The process takes multiple visits to complete. They are durable, stain-resistant, and typically require some enamel removal.

Composite Veneers

Composite veneers are placed directly to the teeth and can be achieved within one visit. They are less expensive, however, they may not last as long and can stain more easily.

Veneers

Gummy Smile

Gummy smile correction can help if you feel uneasy about the amount of gum tissue visible when you smile. You might be a candidate for this procedure if you have excess gum tissue, bulging bone structure, uneven gum line, and hyperactive upper lip.

Treatment Options

Gum Contouring

If excess gum tissue is the main issue, gum contouring can help reshape the gums and reveal more of your teeth.

Bone Reduction

In the case where bulging bone is the main factor of the gummy smile appearance, bone reduction will be performed.

Crown Lengthening

This involves reshaping both the gum and bone to expose more of the tooth’s structure.

Botox Injections

For those with a hyperactive upper lip, Botox injections can help reduce gummy smile by limiting the movement of the lip.

Gummy Smile Correction

Wisdom tooth removal is often recommended before complications occur, especially when the teeth are impacted or lack space to come up properly. If your wisdom teeth are causing problems or pose a risk for future issues, removal might be a good option for your dental health.

Simple Extraction

If the wisdom teeth have fully erupted and are positioned normally, they can be removed like any other tooth. There're several levels of difficulty, depending on how the roots are shaped.

Surgical Extraction

For impacted wisdom teeth trapped beneath the gums or bone, a surgical extraction is needed. This involves making an incision in the gum, cutting a portion of the bone, and sometimes splitting the roots, to access the tooth. This will be done under anesthetic.

Wisdom Tooth Removal

Tooth extraction may be necessary when:

A tooth is causing significant pain and cannot be saved through other treatments
A tooth is severely damaged and deemed unrestorable
Severe periodontitis is present, risking the surrounding tissue and bone structure
Orthodontic treatment is planned, requiring extractions to create space for tooth alignment

This is to prevent the dislodgment of the blood clot, which aids in healing.

Avoid spitting and rinsing immediately

This is to to reduce swelling, especially in the first 24 hours.

Use cold

compress

Take medication as prescribed to manage discomfort and prevent infection.

Take painkillers

and antibiotic

Doing so can interfere with healing and increase the risk of dry socket.

Avoid smoking and drinking alcohol

Extraction

Dental visits should begin no later than your child’s first birthday or within six months of their first tooth.

Child dentistry is essential for maintaining your child’s oral health from infancy through their teenage years. Early dental care helps prevent cavities, supports proper tooth development, and establishes good hygiene habits

Children are more likely to get cavities because of their diet and their brushing skills. Early cavity detection and treatment can be aided by routine examinations.

Cavities

Monitoring your child's tooth and jaw growth allows the dentist to address crowding or misalignment before it becomes a serious problem.

Tooth Development

Dentists can provide guidance on proper brushing and flossing techniques, as well as recommending a healthy diet to promote good oral health.

Oral Hygiene Education

Regular check-ups help your child become familiar with the dentist, making visits more comfortable and reducing anxiety over time.

Dental Anxiety

What to expect during your child's visit

1. Examination

2. Cleaning: Plaque buildup will be cleaned. It's best to come in for a cleaning every 6 months.

3. Dental x-rays: When there are signs of decay, missing teeth, or delayed tooth eruption.

4. Fluoride application

5. Developing a treatment plan: After a thorough examination, the dentist will create a treatment plan. For example, a baby crown will be used when there is severe decay, an extraction if the tooth cannot be saved, a baby root canal when the decay has reached the pulp, and a space maintainer when a tooth is lost early.

Is Fluoride Safe?

Dosage: Fluoride from toothpaste and topical treatments is low in doses

Usage: Fluoride is used to strengthen teeth, helping to remineralize the surfaces and even reverse early decay

Application: Topical fluoride should be applied by the dentist, and patients should also use fluoridated toothpaste at home

The American Dental Association (ADA): Recommends topical fluoride for children as a preventive treatment

Are X-Rays Safe for Children?

Low Radiation: The radiation from dental x-rays is minimal, similar to a few hours of natural background exposure

Protective Gear: Lead aprons and collars are used to further reduce exposure

Digital X-Rays: Modern digital x-rays reduce radiation even more than traditional methods

What is Nitrous Oxide?

Laughing gas, also known as nitrous oxide, is a mild, safe sedative. These are its benefits:

Reduces anxiety and discomfort
Keeps patients calm during dental procedures
Safe and carefully monitored by the dentist and team
Suitable for both children and adults
Its effects wear off quickly, so you can resume your normal activities

Extraction

Child Dentistry

A root canal is often necessary when the pulp inside your tooth becomes infected or inflamed. This can happen due to:

Deep Decay: Cavities that have reached the tooth's pulp
Cracked or Chipped Teeth: Damage that allows bacteria to enter
Tooth Injury: Trauma to the tooth, even without visible damage

Anesthesia is used to numb the tooth that is being treated. A rubber dam will then be used to prevent contamination from entering the root canal.

1. Anesthesia & Rubber Dam

The dentist will locate and remove the infected pulp and nerve throughout the entire root canal. Locating the canals may require several visits if there are many of them.

2. Pulp Removal

After cleaning and eliminating bacteria, the canals will be filled with root canal filling material.

3. Cleaning & Filling

Finally, the tooth will be restored with a crown or a filling for protection. In most cases, back teeth require coverage to prevent future breakage, whereas some front teeth may not.

4. Restoration

Root Canal Treatment

Periodontal disease, also known as gum disease, is an infection that affects the tissues that hold your teeth together. It usually starts with gingivitis, which causes the gums to become inflamed and bleed easily. If left untreated, it can progress to periodontitis, which results in receding gums, bone loss, and even tooth loss.

Gingivitis vs. Periodontitis

Gingivitis is a condition where the gum is inflamed due to plaque accumulation. Other factors, such as hormonal changes, medication, stress, or dry mouth may also contribute. This condition is reversible and can be managed with good oral hygiene and professional cleaning.

Periodontitis is an advanced gum disease characterized by loss of attachment to surrounding dental tissue, resulting in bone loss and tooth mobility. It is caused by various risk factors, including smoking, genetics, low immunity, diabetes, pregnancy, and others.

Routine Cleaning

Routine cleaning, also known as scaling, involves the removal of plaque and tartar from the tooth and gum line. This helps prevent gingivitis and periodontal disease. It is recommended that patients receive a cleaning and examination every six months.

Routine Cleaning

Deep Cleaning

Deep cleaning, also known as scaling and root planing, is used to treat periodontitis. It involves smoothing the root surfaces to remove plaque and tartar deposits. This helps reduce inflammation and allows the surrounding gum tissue to heal and potentially reattach to the tooth.

Deep Cleaning

Periodontal Surgery

In cases where periodontal symptoms do not improve after deep cleaning (scaling and root planing), a surgical approach may be necessary. This can include procedures such as open flap debridement, bone grafts, or soft tissue grafting.

Periodontal Surgery

Periodontal Treatment

Are you having jaw pain, clicking sounds while chewing, or frequent facial pain? These could be signs of a temporomandibular joint disorder (TMD), often known as TMJ, a condition that affects the jaw joint and surrounding muscles. It might cause discomfort and pain that affects your daily life.

There are several risk factors that contribute to TMD:

Stress: Many patients experience worsened TMD pain during stressful times, such as students facing exams or adults transitioning between jobs
Bruxism: Grinding or clenching teeth while sleeping, which some patients are aware of, while others may not be
Trauma to the Jaw: Past accidents to the face or jaw can contribute to TMD
Malocclusion: Loss of a molar without replacement can cause adjacent teeth to shift, resulting in uneven force distribution
Chewing Habits: Chewing on only one side can cause an imbalance in jaw function
Type of Food: Regularly eating hard foods or taking big bites can strain the muscles and contribute to TMD

Adjusting any habits that cause jaw pain, which may include reducing teeth grinding or eating in small bites, as well as reducing stress.

Lifestyle Changes

Pain relievers, muscle relaxants, and anti-inflammatory medications can occasionally help alleviate symptoms.

Medication

In some cases, exercises and stretches can help strengthen jaw muscles and increase mobility.

Physical Therapy

Wearing a night guard, can help reduce teeth grinding (bruxism), relieve jaw tension, and protect teeth from excessive wear.

Mouthguard or Splint

Heat can relax your jaw muscles and improve blood flow, while ice helps reduce pain and swelling. Use the compress prescribed by your dentist.
