Composite Fillings
These are made from resins that can be matched to the color of your teeth, so they become invisible when applied.
Composite fillings also provide an excellent seal on the affected area, so that the tooth decay can be prevented.
Tooth Extraction
At Quality Gentle Dental Care, we always do everything possible to treat your teeth and remedy any dental disease. Unfortunately, in some cases the damage to the teeth is at such an advanced stage that it may be necessary to extract the tooth in order to maintain your dental health.
Bridges
Having one or more missing teeth can have a serious effect, not only on your smile, but also on your dental health. Specifically, missing teeth can cause:
- A change in the alignment of your teeth
- Increased the risk of periodontal disease
- Speech disorders
- Temporomandibular joint disorder (TMJ)
Like dental implants, dental bridges are used to replace a missing tooth, except that bridges are supported by the teeth on either sides called abutment teeth.
Crowns
Crowns completely cover every visible part of the tooth – which is why they are sometimes referred to as “caps.” A part of your tooth remains but is essentially “rebuilt” to resemble the tooth at its exterior best.
Cleaning
Teeth cleaning is the removal of dental plaque and tartar in order to prevent cavities, gingivitis and gum disease. The average dental cleaning is a routine procedure that is rarely painful and takes 30 to 45 minutes.
