Regular screenings for adults help us catch potential issues early on, increasing the likelihood of successful treatment and ensuring your peace of mind.
Scaling & Root Planing
Scaling and root planing is an effective and non-surgical treatment for the early stages of gum disease. This procedure is designed to address the accumulation of plaque and tartar below the gum line and on the tooth’s root surfaces, which can cause inflammation, gum recession, and damage to the supporting structures of the teeth. By thoroughly cleaning these areas, scaling and root planing helps to promote gum healing, prevent further damage, and restore optimal gum health.
The procedure consists of two main steps:
- Scaling: During this stage, we carefully remove plaque and tartar deposits from both above and below the gum line using a scaler. The scaler is used to reach deep into periodontal pockets, where bacteria and debris accumulate, and to clean areas that are otherwise inaccessible with regular brushing and flossing.
- Root planing: After scaling, we focus on smoothing the tooth’s root surfaces. This process involves gently planing or reshaping the roots to create a smooth, clean surface that is less susceptible to bacterial buildup. Root planing helps to promote reattachment of the gums to the tooth, reducing the depth of periodontal pockets and aiding in the healing process.
Crowns
Dental crowns are a versatile and reliable dental restoration designed to protect and restore a damaged or weakened tooth. A crown, often referred to as a “cap,” is a custom-made covering that encases the entire visible portion of a tooth, effectively providing support, strength, and an improved appearance. These restorations are used in a variety of situations, such as when a tooth has been extensively damaged by decay, fractured, or undergone a root canal treatment.
Utilizing the latest technology and top-quality materials, we create custom-fit, durable, and natural-looking crowns that blend seamlessly with your surrounding teeth, ensuring that you can confidently show off your restored smile.
Fillings
Fillings are a common and essential dental treatment designed to repair teeth affected by decay or minor damage. When tooth decay creates a cavity, or a small area of damage occurs, a dental filling is used to restore the tooth’s structure and prevent further deterioration. The process involves removing the decayed or damaged portion of the tooth, cleaning the area, and then filling it with a suitable dental material—such as composite or amalgam.
Fillings play a crucial role in maintaining the structural integrity of the affected tooth, preventing further damage or decay, and preserving overall oral health.
