Do all members of your family visit the same family dentist?
If not, you should really give it a thought, considering all its benefits.
Family dentists are trained professionals who treat almost all types of oral concerns.
Choosing a family dentist for your entire family can act as a one-stop destination and keep you from a whole lot of hassle.
Pediatric dental treatment: Family dentists treat patients belonging to all age groups.
Treating toddlers and younger patients require an entirely different approach that is more friendly and compassionate.
Cosmetic dentistry is a collective term for dental procedures intended to enhance the aesthetics of your smile.
The increase in self-confidence a beautiful smile brings to your everyday life is simply amazing.
Patients who benefit from our cosmetic procedures often express great relief as they're able to smile without being too conscious of their appearance.
Porcelain veneers: Veneers are thin ceramic restorations that are custom-fabricated according to the contour of the teeth.
They are bonded to the front surface of the teeth using dental adhesives, which is then hardened using a curing light.
Preventive dentistry involves all the procedures that help to prevent infections even before they start.
It includes certain procedures that are performed at a dentist's office as well as those which can be followed at home.
Some of them are listed below.
Dental cleaning: Oral cleaning is a simple and effective means of removing the adhered tartar deposits from the teeth and roots.
An ultrasonic scaling appliance is used for this, which dislodges the tartar by vibrating at ultrasonic frequencies.
Have you noticed your gums bleeding when you eat food or brush the teeth?
This could be due to gum diseases such as gingivitis or periodontitis.
They have to be treated at the right time, which otherwise can upset one's oral health severely.
Periodontal therapy is a comprehensive treatment procedure which is known to be highly effective against gum diseases.
One of the best ways to remove the adhered plaque and tartar is through scaling and root planing.
Scaling is the process of removing the tartar from the teeth' surfaces, and root planing is removing tartar from the tooth roots.
