Dental Implants
Dental implants are titanium posts surgically placed to replace missing teeth, offering a durable foundation for natural-looking crowns. They preserve jawbone density, prevent adjacent teeth from shifting, and restore chewing function. Ideal candidates include patients with missing teeth seeking long-term solutions that mimic natural teeth in appearance and function.
Gum Disease Treatment
We treat all stages of gum disease, from gingivitis to advanced periodontitis, using scaling and root planing, laser therapy, and surgical interventions. Early treatment prevents tooth loss, reduces systemic health risks, and restores gum health. Patients benefit from personalized care plans addressing bacterial infections and tissue damage.
Teeth Cleaning
Professional teeth cleanings remove plaque and tartar buildup to prevent gum disease and maintain oral health. Services include supragingival and subgingival cleaning, root planing, and antimicrobial treatments. Regular cleanings every 3-6 months are recommended to ensure long-term dental wellness and early detection of oral health issues.
Tooth Extractions
Tooth extractions address severely damaged, decayed, or impacted teeth. Procedures include simple extractions for visible teeth and surgical removal for impacted or broken teeth. Post-operative care minimizes complications like dry sockets, ensuring smooth recovery and preserving adjacent teeth and bone structure.
Gum Grafting
Gum grafting covers exposed tooth roots caused by recession, improving aesthetics and preventing further bone loss. Techniques include connective tissue grafts, free gingival grafts, and allografts. Benefits include reduced sensitivity, enhanced smile appearance, and protection against progressive gum disease.
