Dental fillings (restorations) are used to fix broken or decaying teeth, and typically consist of a tooth-colored material that seamlessly blends with your existing teeth.

Extensive tooth damage may need more than a filling. A crown (or cap) enhances appearance and provides added protection for seriously damaged teeth.

When teeth become discoloured, chipped or broken, veneers can protect the tooth's surface from damage and restore your smile.

Root canal treatment becomes necessary when the dental pulp (the inner nerve and soft tissue) becomes necrotic, leading to persistent toothaches and infection. Nerve canals are removed, cleaned out and disinfected in this procedure over a series of appointments.

Occlusal problems involve the alignment of upper and lower teeth during jaw closure, including issues like misalignment, malocclusion (overbite or underbite), or temporomandibular joint (TMJ) disorders. Treatment options may include custom night guard splints or oral devices. Our team can assess and treat malocclusion in-house or refer to a network of occlusal specialists if needed. 

We are able to manufacture custom-made mouthguards for sporting activities, night guards for occlusal problems or TMJ dysfunction, and retainers for ongoing orthodontic maintenance.

One of the options to replace a missing tooth is a dental implant. Dental implants are surgically placed in your jawbone, where they function as the roots of missing teeth.

Dental implants can be used to replace a single tooth, several teeth, or to support partial or full dentures. 

An alternative option that can be used to replace a missing tooth is a dental bridge. When creating a bridge, we use the support of other teeth to hold on to the bridge.

The bridge is fused to the teeth next to the gap. This means that the bridge replaces the missing tooth and prevents any further movement of the adjacent teeth.

Mild forms of gum disease, called gingivitis, can be managed with meticulous professional cleaning over a series of appointments. Education and oral hygiene instruction may also be provided. 

Advanced gum disease (periodontitis) can result in gum recession and subsequent tooth loss. In additional to thorough professional cleaning, gum measuring may be necessary to determine the health of the gum tissues. 

Where gum damage is extensive, referral to an endodontist for further assessment and treatment may be required. One of our dentists can organsie referral to a trusted endodontist colleague.
