- Dental ExaminationThis is an integral part of your first dental exam as it will help the dentist to identify the need for precautionary measures when creating your custom treatment plan.
- X-rays
- Oral Cancer ScreeningAs general dentists, we are uniquely positioned to provide a broad range of dental care solutions for people of all ages. We recommend dental visits every six months for a thorough examination of your teeth, gums, jaw, and mouth; oral cancer screening; professional teeth cleaning; and a friendly discussion about how your lifestyle habits – such as smoking, alcohol consumption, and eating sugary items – impacts your oral and general health.
- Teeth CleaningEvery six months, you should visit your dentist in Santa Martha Dental for a professional teeth cleaning. Regular professional dental cleanings are one of the most helpful preventive strategies for ensuring consistent oral health. When combined with proper at-home oral hygiene practices, you can prevent most oral problems from occurring and maintain a bright and healthy smile.
- Space MaintainersFixed space maintainers if a baby tooth is lost prematurely, a space maintainer is used to keep the space open until the permanent tooth erupts. A band is attached to the tooth next to the empty space, and a wire is extended to the tooth on the other side of the space.
- Fillings
- Resin CompositeAfterwards, we will apply a bonding agent before adding the composite resin. The material will be carefully molded and shaped to give your tooth a natural appearance, after which it will be cured with a special light to harden the material and polished to finish the work. The entire procedure takes about 30 to 40 minutes for one tooth, and is completed in a single appointment.
- VeneersDental veneers placement is possibly the most all-inclusive, yet simple cosmetic dental procedure available. Veneers refer to very thin layers of porcelain, tooth-colored material that are cemented over the front surface of your teeth to correct their color, shape, size, spacing, and more.
- CrownsDental crowns are a very common dental procedure performed to restore the function of a severely damaged tooth. A crown acts as a dental grade “cap” tailor made to resemble the appearance of your natural tooth. Dental crowns even have the added benefit of being virtually undetectable to family and friends once is properly cemented into place.
- BridgesMissing teeth are not just a cosmetic concern. Gaps can cause the adjacent teeth to shift, which can in turn lead to poor bite pattern and distorted facial structure. Professionally placed dental bridges can solve these problems and restore the full function of your mouth while improving your smile.
- Dental BondingComposite bonding is a fast, minimally-invasive, and cost-effective cosmetic dental treatment for correcting minor tooth problems such chips, fractures, gaps, decay, and discoloration. It can also be recommended as a cosmetic procedure to change the shape, size, and appearance of your teeth in order to enhance your smile.
- Root Canal TreatmentThe decision between extracting and saving a severely damaged tooth due to trauma, tooth decay, a chip or crack, or extensive dental procedures is not always an easy one. But at Santa Martha Dental, we will always make the decision that allows you to preserve as much of your natural tooth structure as possible. With root canal treatment, the tooth root is preserved, which stimulates the jawbone and prevents your teeth from shifting out of place.
