Cleanings

Dental cleaning is a preventive procedure performed by dentists to maintain optimal oral health. It involves removing dental plaque and tartar from teeth to protect against cavities and gum problems. During the cleaning, a dental hygienist or dentist uses specialized tools to clean the teeth, followed by polishing to enhance their appearance. While at-home care with a toothbrush and floss is important,

it cannot achieve the deep cleaning that a dentist provides,  regular dental cleanings are typically recommended every six months, but the frequency may vary based on individual needs.

Composite Resin Fillings

A dental filling is a procedure used to fill a hole, or cavity, in a tooth. You may need a filling if you have tooth decay or if the structure of the tooth is lost due to trauma. These problems may be found when you have a dental x-ray.

Composite resin is a white or tooth-coloured material. It can be matched to the colour of the other teeth and looks more natural than amalgam, but it is a bit more expensive. Some studies have suggested it might not last as long when used to fill adult back teeth, where there is a lot of pressure.

X- rays

Dental X-rays (radiographs) are images tools used by the dentists to visualize the teeth, gums, and surrounding bone structures. They play a crucial role in diagnosing dental issues that may not be visible during a routine examination, like cavities, tooth decay and impacted teeth.
