Gum Disease Treatment
Periodontal (Gum) disease is an infection of the tissues supporting and surrounding the teeth. It is mainly caused by the accumulation of bacteria on the roots of the teeth which causes inflammation and damages the gums and bone. This chronic infection attacks below the gum line where it breaks down the attachment of the tooth and its supporting tissues and eventually causes the teeth to become loose and fall out. Worst of all, there is no pain involved so most people don’t e

Dental Bridges
Dental bridges, literally bridge the gap created by one or more missing teeth. A typical bridge is made up of two crowns (one on either side of the gap) and a false tooth or teeth in between. Bridges are attached to surrounding natural teeth or dental implants for support. The anchoring teeth are called abutment teeth and the false teeth are called pontics. Bridges can be fashioned from ceramic, zirconia, gold, metal alloys or a combination If you have lost a tooth/teeth, bri

Dental Crowns
Over time, teeth can be damaged, cracked or weakened by decay. Dentists use a crown to entirely cover or "cap" a damaged tooth. Crowns are made to match the color of your natural teeth, and besides strengthening an impaired tooth, these can be used to improve the appearance, shape and alignment of your teeth. Dental crowns can be fashioned from ceramic, zirconia, gold, metal alloys or a combination. Unlike removable devices such as dentures, crowns are cemented onto existing

Dental Implants
Losing a tooth (or teeth) can be a shattering experience — emotionally, physically and professionally. Aside from the obvious problems of poor physical appearance and damaged self-esteem, missing teeth also cause subsequent dilemmas like loss of chewing ability or ineffective speech. A large and misunderstood consequence of losing teeth is that if they are not replaced, the surrounding teeth generally move to compensate for the lost tooth and end up being lost a few years lat

Root Canal Treatment
A 'root canal' is the term that refers to the natural cavity or space within the root of the tooth. It is made up of the pulp chamber which lies in the centre of the tooth and provides nutrients and nerves to each part of the tooth and the 'canals' that connect the bottom of the root of the tooth to the pulp chamber. A cavity in the tooth leaves an opening where bacteria can enter and multiply. Left without treatment, these bacteria cause infections of the root canals, killi

Wisdom Teeth
Wisdom teeth are the third and final set of molars found at the very back of the mouth. Most people get them during their late teens or early twenties. They are a valuable asset when they grow healthy and properly positioned but they may require removal when they get misaligned or impacted. When misaligned, wisdom teeth can grow inwards, sideways and at times position themselves horizontally. This eventually crowds and damages the other teeth, the jaw and to some extent, the
