Getting a check-up every 6 months is vital to identify oral health problems such as tooth decay, gum disease or even oral cancer.
During our check-up & clean treatments, we remove hardened plaque which helps to reduce the risk of gum disease.
Modern dentistry utilizes amazing technology to better diagnose and treat dental issues. Orthopantomogram x-rays (OPG) provides a fast, wide-angle, or panoramic image of the lower face. The images help dentists get insights on general dental health, development of wisdom teeth, and plan orthodontic treatments.
Root Canal Treatments aka endodontic treatment is performed to replace infected or damaged pulp with a root filling. The pulp is responsible in keeping the tooth alive, and when it is damaged, bacteria can creep in and multiply inside the tooth which leads to infection.
If tooth decay is detected whilst it’s just a small cavity, it can be treated with a filling.
Untreated tooth decay can reach the pulp inside the tooth which can only be treated with a root canal or extraction. Tooth decay can also spread to neighbouring teeth.
It is recommended that you consult a dentist if you notice any of these symptoms to prevent much costly and painful procedures.

Wisdom teeth start coming through the very back of your mouth during the late teens & twenties. Some wisdom teeth may not come through fully, often leaving a flap of gum which causes pain, bleeding, swelling, and infection.
If you are suffering from wisdom tooth pain, come in for a check up to asses your options.
