-Improved appearance
-Boosted self-confidence
-Better oral health
-Pain relief

Dental implants are the modern solution for replacing missing teeth. Traditional dentures only replace the visible portion of the tooth, but are simply held in place by suction, making them slightly unstable. On the other hand, dental implants replace the tooth root as well. This means your replacement tooth will be both functional and aesthetic. More importantly, implants are firmly secured to the jawbone, keeping them from slipping off.

Oral surgery includes surgical procedures conducted on the oral and facial features. Most of these procedures are carried out after we administer local anesthesia to numb the tissues. This prevents pain and discomfort and allows the procedure to be finished in a shorter period.

Oral surgery is a broad term that encompasses several procedures. Some common oral surgery procedures include tooth extraction, bone grafting, dental implant placement, and wisdom teeth removal. Another common oral surgery procedure is facial surgery, which can involve correcting problems such as a misaligned jaw or cleft lip and palate.

Pediatric dental services are a branch of dentistry that deals with the oral health care of children, from birth to adolescence. Under pediatric dentistry, children with special needs are also treated with exclusive care. Children nowadays are exposed to various tooth diseases such as tooth decay, gum infection, tooth infection, and others. There are many reasons why your little one may fall prey to them – poor oral care, consumption of sugary and starchy food, and skipping dental cleanings, to name a few.

Clear Aligners are an excellent alternative to traditional metal braces. These braces are made of smooth, clear ceramic and are barely visible. Many patients appreciate clear braces because they are less noticeable than traditional ones. Since these braces are the same color as your teeth, they don’t stand out. Another advantage is that clear braces can be worn by patients who are allergic to nickel.

Orthodontics is a specialized branch of dentistry that focuses on correcting misaligned teeth, jaw disorders, and other malocclusions (poor bites). Oftentimes, malocclusions are caused by tooth or jaw misalignment. Such misalignments hinder proper chewing, speaking, and oral hygiene.

Sedation dentistry uses medication to help patients feel relaxed during dental treatments. Medications that fall into this category include nitrous oxide (laughing gas), and intravenous (IV) sedation. Some deeper levels of sedation also induce deep sleep, which can be used during long surgical procedures.
