Dental Implants
Dental implants are one of the biggest and most successful advances in modern dentistry. They are an effective, long-term option if you have missing teeth or wear dentures that are uncomfortable. An implant is a small, titanium root-shaped screw that is inserted into the jawbone to replace a missing tooth or to help retain dentures...
Crowns & Bridges
Crowns are often needed when a tooth is severely decayed, damaged below the gum line, or cracked, as a filling or bonding may not be sufficient to resolve the issue.
Dental bridges offer an effective solution for replacing missing teeth. A dental bridge works by using the surrounding natural teeth as anchors to support a replacement tooth in the gap.
Oral Surgery
Oral surgery is any surgery performed in or around your mouth. There are many kinds or oral surgery, including but not limited to wisdom teeth removal, implants, root canals, and other forms of dental repair. You will be informed of the specifics if you require any form of oral surgery.
Root Canals
Root canal treatment is a common dental procedure that is intended to eliminate bacteria from the root canal system and to prevent reinfection of the tooth. This allows the natural tooth to be preserved rather than having to extract the tooth.
Cleanings and Preventative Care
Getting regular cleanings and preventative care is extremely important for maintaining good dental health over the course of your life. Staying up to date and consistent with your teeth cleanings can prevent serious dental problems in the future. Some examples of preventative care are teeth cleaning, X-rays, and oral exams at least every 6 months.
Cosmetic Dentistry
Cosmetic dentistry is the name for any procedure used to improve the appearance of one's teeth and smile. Some examples of this are teeth whitening, inlays and onlays, veneers, crowns, and implants.
Restorative Procedures
Restorative procedures are a term used to describe procedures to fix and replace damaged teeth, including bridges, crowns, and dental implants. They improve the overall condition of your mouth as well as your confidence.
Dentures
Dentures are a removable set of fake teeth. There are complete and partial dentures. Complete dentures are used what your entire set of teeth are missing, and partial are used when only some teeth are missing.
Emergencies
Dental emergencies are quite common and can happen to anyone. Whether it’s a broken tooth or swollen gums, some dental emergencies can become serious and potentially cause permanent damage. Ignoring them can also increase the likelihood of more extensive and expensive treatment...
Periodontal Care
Periodontal disease is an extremely common gum disease that you may not be aware you even have. Early on it is painless, but it can have long-lasting effects including tooth loss. One sign of the disease is swollen gums.
TMJ Disorders
If you have pain in your jaw, it could be a sign of TMJ disorder, a disorder that affects the joint in your jaw bone. Some more specific signs are pain and difficulty chewing, a locking jaw, or pain around your jaw or ears. Most of the time it can be treated non-surgically.
Snoring and Sleep Apnea
While snoring and sleep apnea are not the same thing, snoring can be a sign of the more serious condition of sleep apnea. Sleep apnea causes the airways to become blocked during sleep. Pay attention to if snoring becomes frequent, loud, or irregular in any way, as it may be a sign you need to see a doctor.
Herbs and Oral Health
Herbal medicines and products are being used to prevent and treat various diseases throughout the body and mouth. Some of these herbal extracts are used for reducing inflammation, as antimicrobial agents, antioxidants, antifungals and antibacterials, but while they may offer benefits, some herbs can have side effects and may complicate dental treatment...
