Dental Extraction
Tooth extraction or dental extraction is the removal of tooth from the mouth. This can also be the basis for future cosmetic dental treatments. Extractions can be simple or surgical. For both procedures, our aim is to make dental extractions as easy and pain-free as possible. Our patients are usually surprised at how little they feel during their extraction and afterwards. Simple extractions are usually performed when the tooth is visible, already loose. On the other hand, su

Gum Lift
Recontouring is one of the most important developments of cosmetic dentistry. Very often cosmetic recontouring involves a Gingivectomy or "gum lift", in which the dentist removes the patient's excess gum tissue. The procedure usually takes not more than half an hour per tooth. Have you noticed that when some people smile they seem to reveal too much gum, or their teeth appear to be uneven in length? This condition can be hereditary. A Gingivectomy is the dental equivalent of
Veneers
Veneers are thin pieces of porcelain or plastic glued to the front of your teeth. For teeth that are severely discolored, chipped or misshapen, they create a durable and pleasing smile. Veneers are difficult to stain, making them popular for people seeking a perfect smile. Porcelain (indirect) veneers, must first be created to fit your teeth in a dental laboratory and require two visits to complete. Advantages: Long-lasting results; non-invasive procedure; virtually instant g

TMJ (Jaw Joint)
The ‘temporomandibular joint’ (TMJ) is where the lower jaw connects to the base of the skull. The position of this joint is just in front of your ears and it can be felt by opening and closing your jaw while gently pressing this position. Temporomandibular Joint Dysfunction (TMD) is improper function of this joint and the muscles controlling it. You may be a victim of TMD if you suffer one or more of the following: sore jaws, toothaches, sinus problems, neck and back pain, ea
Sleep Apnoea and Snoring
If you snore loudly and often, you know the social implications of your problem. Even if you have become accustomed to middle of the night elbow thrusts and bad jokes, snoring is no laughing matter. It is a signal that something is wrong with your breathing during sleep. It means that the airway is not fully open and a noise is being produced from your efforts to force air through narrowed passageways. Perhaps 1 in every 10 adults snore and for most, snoring has no serious me
Wear and Erosion Treatment
Dental erosion is the loss of tooth structure due to exposure to acids. Coupled with even a small imperfection in the bite that causes wear, teeth can get severely damaged. Erosion can dissolve the tooth enamel (outer protective cover of teeth) and expose the dentine (inner delicate part of the tooth). Once exposed, dentine will wear faster than enamel. Erosion can cause the teeth to become sensitive, yellow in colour, and can lead to decay. Dental erosion is a silent epidemi
Child Dental Care
Free dental care is provided to all children from birth to Year 8 schooling, at the school or community dental clinics.
