- Dental ExaminationRegular dental exams help protect not just your oral health, but your overall health as well. Our dentists recommend a dental exam and cleaning at least twice a year to prevent cavities and gum disease.
- Teeth CleaningA critical part of preventative health care includes regular dental cleanings and exams. During a dental exam at Gentle Dentistry, our hygienists will clean your teeth and check for cavities and gum disease.
- Dental SealantsFillings are used to restore teeth to their normal shape, appearance and function by filling in cavities caused by tooth decay. Sealants are valuable in the prevention of tooth decay as they fill in the natural pits and fissures in the back molar teeth where dental decay occurs most often.
- Fillings
- VeneersVeneers can be used to close gaps or correct small misalignments, and are a less invasive option than crowns. Patients also choose veneers as a cosmetic solution to enhance the brightness of their teeth and to straighten their smile, correcting issues like discoloration, fractures, or chips.
- CrownsIn addition to strengthening a damaged tooth, crowns & bridges can be used to improve a tooth’s appearance, shape, and alignment - along with your bite overall.
- BridgesCrowns & bridges are a regular part of dental treatments offered at Gentle Dentistry. This service can preserve and restore the structure and balance to your teeth.
- Root Canal TreatmentA root canal is the process of medically removing the nerve found inside a seriously injured or diseased tooth. Also known as endodontic treatment, a root canal is the best way to relieve serious pain, which enables the patient to keep the tooth instead of opting for an extraction. In addition to this, deciding to retain the tooth instead of removing the tooth can help protect surrounding teeth from excessive wear or strain.
- DenturesDentures and partials are removable dental prosthetics that replace missing teeth and fully restore confidence in a smile at the same time.
- Dental ImplantsBoth types of services are an alternative to dental implants, and allow the wearer the flexibility to remove them at night, for cleaning, or whenever desired.
- Tooth Extractions
