Fluoride varnish is a quick and painless treatment used to strengthen tooth enamel and prevent cavities. It is especially effective for children. The varnish is applied to the surface of the teeth, helping to remineralise weak spots and reduce the risk of decay.
The fluoride varnish is brushed onto the teeth and hardens quickly. It gradually releases fluoride into the enamel, strengthening the teeth and making them more resistant to acids.
Fissure sealants are protective coatings applied to the grooves of the back teeth, where food particles and bacteria can easily get trapped. By sealing these areas, fissure sealants help prevent cavities, particularly in children and teenagers.
A thin layer of resin is painted onto the chewing surfaces of the molars, filling in the deep grooves and creating a smooth surface that’s easier to clean.
Tooth-coloured fillings, also known as composite fillings, are used to restore decayed or damaged teeth while maintaining a natural appearance. You can also have any existing metallic fillings replaced with tooth-coloured or ‘white’ fillings. This will allow you to smile without a metallic glint in sight, giving the teeth a more natural appearance overall.
This is a safe procedure that entails the removal of any decay from your tooth, and taking out the metal or amalgam fillings if you are having them replaced. The new filling is made from a very hard tooth-coloured substance and will withstand the forces in your mouth when you bite and chew over a long period of time. The restoration is completed in one visit and the fillings will not be visible when you smile.
Tooth-coloured crowns are caps placed over damaged or decayed teeth to restore their shape, size, and appearance. These crowns are made from materials like porcelain or resin to match the colour of natural teeth.
The tooth is reshaped to fit the crown, and an impression is made. A custom crown is then created and cemented onto the tooth, providing protection and improving the tooth’s function.
Metal crowns are a durable solution for restoring teeth that are severely damaged or decayed. While they may not blend as seamlessly with natural teeth, they are incredibly strong and ideal for molars.
The tooth is prepared, and an impression is taken. A custom metal crown is created and securely placed over the tooth, offering long-term protection and strength.
Silver Diamine Fluoride (SDF) is a non-invasive treatment used to stop the progression of tooth decay, especially in children. It’s a quick and painless way to treat cavities without drilling or anaesthesia.
SDF is applied to the decayed area of the tooth. The silver helps kill bacteria, and the fluoride helps remineralise the tooth, effectively halting the decay process.
Root canal treatment for baby teeth, or pulpotomy, is performed when the tooth’s nerve has been infected due to decay or trauma. This treatment saves the baby tooth until it naturally falls out, maintaining space for adult teeth.
The infected part of the tooth is removed, and the remaining space is filled with a special material. The tooth is then restored with a crown or filling.
Root canal treatment for young adults involves removing the infected or damaged pulp inside the tooth, allowing the tooth to be preserved. This treatment is often necessary to save the tooth and prevent extraction.
The infected tissue is removed, the inside of the tooth is cleaned and disinfected, and the space is filled with a special material. A crown is typically placed on top for added protection.
Bridges are fixed dental restorations used to replace one or more missing teeth, anchored by adjacent teeth or implants.
The teeth adjacent to the gap are prepared, and a custom-made bridge is secured in place, restoring function and aesthetics.
Resin infiltration is a minimally invasive treatment used to stop the progression of early-stage cavities. It’s also used to treat white spots on teeth, often caused by orthodontic treatment or demineralization.
A special resin is applied to the tooth and penetrates the enamel, filling and strengthening it. The resin hardens, stopping further decay or the appearance of white spots.
Microabrasion is a cosmetic treatment used to remove superficial stains and discolouration from the enamel. It’s especially effective for white spots and other surface irregularities.
A combination of mild abrasive materials and acidic compounds is gently applied to the enamel, removing the discoloured outer layer.
A removable appliance is an orthodontic device used to correct minor dental issues, such as crowding or alignment, and is often used as part of early orthodontic treatment.
The appliance is custom-made and fitted to your mouth, typically worn for several hours a day to guide the movement of teeth.
Tooth-coloured veneers are thin shells of porcelain or composite resin that are placed over the front surfaces of the teeth to improve their appearance. Veneers are a good treatment option to consider for stained, chipped, or not-aligned teeth because they look like natural teeth and don’t require a major procedure. Veneers can also be used to close small gaps when braces are not suitable. If one tooth is slightly out of position, a veneer can sometimes be fitted to bring it into line with the others.
A veneer is a very thin, tooth-coloured piece of porcelain (like a false fingernail, but more durable) that is bonded on top of the tooth. The shape and size of the veneers can be adjusted to make the teeth overall look longer and or closer together.
The removal of baby teeth, or primary teeth, is necessary when the tooth is severely decayed, damaged, or preventing the proper eruption of permanent teeth.
The tooth is gently extracted to prevent infection or alignment issues, ensuring that the permanent teeth can come in properly.
The removal of adult teeth is typically necessary when a tooth is too damaged to be saved by other treatments, or when it causes overcrowding.
The tooth is carefully extracted, and depending on the case, a replacement option such as an implant or bridge may be discussed.
Expose and bond is an orthodontic procedure used to assist in the eruption of an impacted canine tooth. This treatment helps guide the canine into its correct position.
The gum is gently lifted to expose the impacted canine, and a bracket is bonded to the tooth, allowing it to be guided into place with orthodontics.
A frenectomy is a minor surgical procedure to remove or loosen the frenulum, a small fold of tissue in the mouth. This is often done to improve movement or prevent issues with speech or dental alignment.
The frenulum is carefully removed or adjusted, freeing up movement for the lips or tongue.
Tongue tie release, or lingual frenectomy, is performed to free the tongue’s movement when the frenulum is too tight, causing speech, or eating difficulties.
The frenulum is carefully released using either a scalpel or laser, allowing for improved tongue mobility.
Soft tissue surgery includes procedures aimed at treating or reshaping the soft tissues of the mouth, such as the gums or cheeks, to improve oral health or appearance.
Depending on the condition, soft tissue may be removed, reshaped, or repositioned to achieve the desired outcome.
