Invisalign
Invisalign straightens your teeth using a custom-made series of aligners created for you and only you. These aligner trays are made of smooth, comfortable and virtually invisible plastic that you wear over your teeth. They gradually and gently shift your teeth into place. There are no metal brackets to attach and no wires to tighten. You just pop in a new set of aligners approximately every two weeks, until your treatment is complete.
Orthodontic / Dental Braces
Orthodontic procedure is a popular dental treatment used to correct crooked teeth. Having a misaligned bite can lead to tensed muscles in the mouth and teeth wear due to difficulty in chewing. There is also a higher possibility of getting gum disease as it is often a challenge to maintain good oral hygiene.
Wisdom Tooth Surgery
Patients often decline to remove their wisdom teeth due to the perceived discomfort during the procedure. However, a delay in wisdom tooth removal can cause you more harm. There are several situations where wisdom teeth may not need to be removed.
Dental Implants
Dental implants are artificial roots made of titanium metal, which are inserted into the jawbone to replace the roots of the natural teeth. As the implant will bond with the bone and attach to the gum, it can take several months to heal. After which, an artificial replacement tooth is attached to the implant. In some cases, these two stages of the surgery can be done in one single stage.
Teeth Whitening
In most cases, the natural colour of teeth is within a range of light greyish-yellow shades. It isn’t just the consumption of teeth-staining food or tobacco products that cause the yellowing of teeth; ageing is also an inevitable cause! But fret not, this can be corrected: studies have proven that professional teeth whitening can whiten teeth up to 8 shades (zoom light whitening), giving you a perfect smile that can last for an average of one year with regular maintenance.
Children Dentistry
It is important for your child to learn how to clean their teeth and maintain proper oral hygiene. Teeth should be cleaned as soon as they emerge. By starting early, your child would be able to get used to the daily routine.
Periodontal (Gum) Disease
While you may think that loss of teeth is inevitable as we age, it is actually possible for all of your teeth to last a lifetime. One of the ways to achieve this goal is to avoid periodontal disease (“peri” – around; “odont” – tooth), which is caused by bacteria that attacks the tissues around your teeth.
Root Canal Treatment
This procedure is used to treat infected and badly decayed teeth. Also known as endodontic treatment, it is necessary when the pulp of a tooth becomes infected or dies due to bacteria contamination through cracks and/or cavities. Bacteria can travel through the pulp and enter the alveolar bone, and subsequently causing pain due to acute/chronic infection. Infection would show symptoms such as sensitivity to hot or cold, swelling, tenderness during percussion and pressure, prolonged pain without any stimulants; or there might be also be no symptoms at all. To determine whether the tooth requires root canal treatment, investigations such as x-ray and electrical stimulant tests may be needed. Treatment will comprise of the removal of damaged pulp, followed by the sealing of the canal. Most root canal-treated teeth would eventually require a crown to protect the tooth from fracturing. This treatment may be done in just 1 or 2 appointments! If an infected tooth is left untreated, it can cause serious oral health problems. Save your teeth and keep you mouth healthy!
