What We Treat
Effective treatments for your oral health.
Why Choose Our Dental Care?
Understanding your dental needs for a healthier future.
There are a variety of reasons why patients seek dental care from our dental office or other local dentists in the area. While the procedures and treatments are fairly standard from office to office, every patient is unique and you need a dentist who understands the complexities of your individual needs.
Our dental office provides all patients with a complete oral exam to ensure your oral health is setup for success.
The best way to stop serious symptoms is to catch them in their early stages and to develop a treatment plan to restore any issues that may have been caused. It is important for us that you understand what dental conditions there are, and what we can do to help.
List of Services
-
Dental AnxietyList Item 1
Fear or stress related to dental visits, often causing patients to avoid treatment. Solutions include sedation dentistry, gentle care techniques, and patient education for a more comfortable experience. Addressing dental anxiety helps improve oral health, prevent complications, and create a more positive experience at the dentist.
-
Bad BreathList Item 2
Bad breath, also known as halitosis, is a strong smell that remains in our mouths for an extended period. If you are struggling with bad breath it may be due to dental issues, mouth infections, dry mouth, or smoking. Bacteria is most likely lodged in between your teeth, which is why we recommend following a strict dental regime that includes flossing, brushing, and mouthwash twice a day to remove any debris that may be settling. If bad breath does not resolve, we suggest scheduling an appointment at our office to track down what is causing the issue.
-
Gum DiseaseList Item 3
Gum disease is branched from gingivitis, which is an inflammation of our gums. This commonly happens due to poor oral hygiene and results in swollen gums and bleeding when brushing or flossing. However, as gingivitis becomes gum disease, also known as periodontitis, your gums may become swollen, red, and lead to recession.
-
Oral CancerList Item 4
Oral cancer starts with the cells in our mouths which slowly become a tumour as cells group together and destroy tissue. It looks like a small sore, but it does not go away, which should cause suspicion. It can develop on multiple areas around our mouths, such as: the lips, gums, tongue, inner cheeks, roof of the mouth, or under the tongue.
-
TMJ
A condition affecting the jaw joint and muscles, leading to pain, clicking, headaches, and difficulty chewing. Treatment includes bite splints, therapy, or restorative dental procedures. If left untreated, TMJ can cause chronic pain, jaw misalignment, and difficulty with everyday activities like speaking and eating.
-
Sleep Apnea
A sleep disorder where breathing repeatedly stops and starts during sleep, often causing snoring, fatigue, and health risks like heart disease. Dental treatments include oral appliances to keep airways open. Untreated sleep apnea can lead to serious complications such as high blood pressure, stroke, and daytime drowsiness.
