Dental Examinations

A dental examination is a comprehensive and thorough evaluation of your oral health conducted by a dental professional. They will assess every aspect of your teeth, gums, and jaw to identify any potential issues. Along with checking for the existence of cavities and gum diseases that can lead to tooth decay or loss, the dentist also screens for underlying conditions such as oral cancer. This screening is crucial for early detection and treatment to prevent any more severe issues from arising.

The ultimate goal of a dental examination is to prevent dental problems before they become more severe and encourage excellent oral health practices. The examination is a regular procedure that is essential for maintaining good oral health and ensuring that you have a healthy mouth. With a complete dental examination, you will be in a better position to address any concerns and prevent potential issues from becoming more severe over time. By attending regular dental examinations, you can ensure that your oral health is always in tip-top shape and that your overall health is not compromised.

Fillings

Composite (white) dental fillings have become more and more popular in recent years thanks to their many benefits for repairing cavities and restoring the health and appearance of damaged teeth. These fillings are made from a blend of plastic and glass materials designed to match the color and texture of your natural teeth, offering you a seamless and discreet treatment option. In contrast to traditional metal fillings, composite fillings are mercury-free, meaning that they are better for your overall dental health. Additionally, they require less tooth structure to be removed during the placement process, which makes them less invasive and even more aesthetically pleasing.

Composite fillings can also be used to correct cosmetic imperfections or chipped teeth, making them a versatile option that can be utilised in both front and back teeth. By properly caring for your composite fillings and regularly visiting your dentist for check-ups, fillings can last for many years and give you a healthy, functional and beautiful smile.

Root Canal Treatment

Root canal treatment, or endodontic treatment, is a dental procedure that becomes necessary when the pulp of a tooth becomes infected or damaged. The aim of this treatment is to save the tooth from having to be extracted, retaining maximum functionality and aesthetics of the tooth. The dentist will remove the infected pulp, thoroughly clean the inside of the tooth, and then fill and seal the space with a dental material.

This treatment may require a single visit, or it may be performed over multiple appointments, depending on the complexity of the tooth. The procedure is performed under local anesthesia to ensure a comfortable experience for the patient. With proper oral hygiene and regular visits to the dentist, teeth that have undergone root canal treatment can last for many years, restoring optimum oral health.

Bridges & Crowns

A dental bridge is a custom-made dental prosthetic that resembles natural teeth. It is used to replace one or more missing teeth by anchoring it onto the neighboring teeth or with dental implants. Made from high-quality materials like porcelain or ceramic, dental bridges are strong, durable, and long-lasting. They are also able to restore chewing and speaking function which can improve general oral health. With proper care, a dental bridge can provide a natural-looking, comfortable and secure restoration for patients with missing teeth.

A dental crown is a prosthetic device that is designed to cover and strengthen a damaged or decayed tooth. It is a protective cap that is cemented onto a natural tooth to restore its shape, size, and function. They are custom-made to fit your specific tooth and bite pattern, ensuring a comfortable and natural feel. With proper care and maintenance, a dental crown can last for many years, maintaining the health and integrity of your natural tooth. Whether you need a dental crown for cosmetic or restorative purposes, it can be a great investment in your dental health and overall well-being.

IV Sedation

Our dental practice offers a safe and effective solution for patients who experience anxiety or fear during their dental procedures. Our IV sedation treatment combines medication with local anesthetic to provide a relaxed and comfortable experience for our patients. The sedation medication is administered through a small needle in your arm, providing almost immediate relief from any discomfort or anxiety. 

Our skilled dental professionals will closely monitor your vital signs throughout the procedure to ensure your safety and comfort. After the procedure, the sedative will take some time to wear off, so we recommend having someone accompany you home and avoid driving for the rest of the day. Our IV sedation technique is an ideal option for patients undergoing complex dental procedures or for those who generally experience dental anxiety. Contact us today to schedule your appointment and discover the benefits of receiving dental treatment with IV sedation.
