Free Dental Check-Up
You have no complaints and feel your teeth are healthy? We hope so, but why don't you make sure everything inside your mouth is fine. Problems with teeth build up over time, and the earlier you detect them, the easier it is to treat them. If the last time you visited your dentist was over six months ago, then it is recommended that you pay a new visit to a dentist .
We offer you a completely free dental check-up, without any commitment on your behalf, while committing ourselves to a full comprehensive examination of your mouth. The check-up includes a screening examination in which we review your medical history and examine your mouth and jaws. We'll discuss with you your current dental status and let you decide how you wish to proceed
Individual Treatment Plans
Your initial examination will provide us with valuable information about you and your health. We will assess your current dental state, what needs to be done and the best way to do it. A personal programme will be created for your individual needs, emphasizing on quality, prevention, durability and aesthetics. Together dentist and patient select a treatment plan which provides quality treatment and fits your timetable and budget
Our services include, but are not limited to:
TOOTH WHITENING
To make your teeth look shinier and give you more confidence when smiling, we use Cold Light tooth-whitening technology. It cuts down the time needed for the whole whitening process to less than an hour. A study in the February, 2004 Journal of the American Dental Association (JADA) found that: “The application of lights significantly improved the whitening efficacy of some bleach materials.” The same study found that high-temperature lights can be dangerous to the teeth, which makes Cold-Light Technology a very good choice for safely whitening teeth.
Every tooth consists of two parts: crown (the visible part) and root (the unseen part which anchors the tooth in your jawbone, providing stable support for your crown). When an entire tooth is lost – crown and root - shrinkage of the jawbone may occur. There are many ways to replace tooth crowns, but only dental implants can replace the entire tooth including both crown and root. Dental implants are permanent fixtures of titanium posts anchored to the jawbone and topped with individual replacement teeth or a bridge that screws or cements into the posts. The success rate for implants is very high nowadays: 98 percent for lower implants and 91 percent for upper implants. Dental implants feel, look and function like your own natural teeth. They often last for life, and have the advantage of improved comfort, removal of pain associated with missing roots, and improved self-esteem.

GUM DISEASE TREATMENT
Periodontal disease is a major dental care issue affecting a large sector of the population, whose primary cause is bacterial plaque located near or below the gum margins. A mild form of periodontal disease is called gingivitis and this may result in bleeding during brushing, swelling and increased redness of the gum tissue. The severe forms of periodontal disease which may develop lead to pus formation, tooth mobility and perhaps eventual tooth loss. The disease often occurs in short destructive bursts at a variable number of sites in the mouth. Therefore early identification of the patients at risk of any form of destructive periodontal disease is paramount.
To help you restore the natural beauty of your smile, we offer you tooth whitening with Beyond Cold Light Technology, metal-free restorations, porcelain crowns, porcelain veneers (porcelain coverings of your teeth attached to the natural tooth tissue that look just like your other teeth and help you cover stains, shades or shapes) and others. In fact, cosmetic dentistry is incorporated in all our treatment and we aim to use tooth coloured materials whenever possible, except where more traditional methods such as some metals have functional advantages.
Veneers are thin, custom-made shells made of tooth-colored porcelain designed to cover the front side of teeth. They are bonded onto the teeth so as to create a cosmetic improvement for a tooth. Porcelain veneers are routinely used as a way to make cosmetic changes for teeth that are discoloured, worn, chipped, or misaligned. The translucent ceramic quality of today's veneers provides a more natural look than what’s been available in the past. In some cases, veneers may replace the need for a dental crown, eliminating the need for more invasive tooth preparation.
If you have heavily damaged or missing teeth, crowns and bridges are often the only satisfactory long-term solution. Our dentists will make sure that these are well-fit in our mouth and look like your natural teeth in order to achieve excellent aesthetic and functional results.
Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery involves procedures concentrated in and around the mouth and includes defects, injuries and diseases involving the mouth, teeth, gums and jaws. We put emphasis on saving as much of the supporting bone and gum tissues as possible in order to provide a good basis for subsequent cosmetic procedures.
Root canal treatment is needed when the nerve or blood supply of the tooth (known as pulp) is infected through injury or decay. The infection can spread through the root canal system of the tooth and eventually the tooth may need to be taken out. To avoid this, the pulp can be removed, the root canal cleaned and sealed off to protect it. Unlike in the past when this resulted in discolouration, with modern technology and materials the teeth will preserve their natural appearance.
Fillings are needed to fill in cavities caused by tooth decay. You can choose between the traditional amalgam fillings and tooth-coloured fillings. Tooth-coloured fillings are made from durable plastics called composite resins and are not only functional, but natural-looking as well. You may also decide to replace your old amalgam fillings with tooth-coloured ones and restore the confidence in your smile.
