PAEDIATRIC DENTAL CARE- Pediatric dentistry is
dedicated to the oral health of children from
infancy through the teen years. We have the
experience and qualifications to care for a
childs teeth, gums, and mouth throughout the
various stages of childhood. Children begin to
get their baby teeth during the first 6 months of
life. By age 6 or 7 years, they start to lose
their first set of teeth, which are eventually
replaced by secondary, permanent teeth. Without
proper dental care, children may face possible
oral decay and disease that can cause a lifetime
of pain and complications.

TOOTH WHITENING - Tooth whitening can be a very
effective way of lightening the natural color of
your teeth with removing any of the tooth
surface. It cannot make a complete color change,
but it may lighten the existing shade. As we get
older our teeth get darker. This is partly due to
our getting older, but it is also caused by the
foods we eat and drink, and by other habits such
as smoking.Tea, coffee, blackcurrant juice, red
wine and other foods that have strong colors can
have an effect on the overall color of our
teeth.Teeth may also darken as a result of some
antibiotics.

ROOT CANAL TREATMENT - Root canal treatment
(also called endodontics) is needed when the
blood or nerve supply of the tooth (known as the
pulp) is infected through decay or injury. You
may not feel any pain in the early stages of the
infection. In some cases, your tooth could darken
in colour, which may mean that the nerve of the
tooth has died (or is dying). This would need
root canal treatment. If the pulp becomes
infected, the infection may spread through the
root canal system of the tooth. This may
eventually lead to an abscess (gumboil). An
abscess is an inflamed area in which pus collects
and can cause swelling of the tissues around the
tooth .

ORTHODONTICS/BRACES - Orthodontics is a
specialist branch of dentistry that deals with
the diagnosis, prevention and correction of
Dental and facial irregularities.Orthodontic
treatment is used to correct a bad bite. This
condition, known as a malocclusion, involves
teeth that are crowded or crooked. In some cases,
the upper and lower jaws may not meet properly
and although the teeth may appear straight, the
individual may have an uneven bite. Correcting
the problem can create a nice-looking smile, but
more important, orthodontic treatment results in
a healthier mouth.

DENTAL IMPLANTS - A Dental Implant is used to
support one or more false teeth. It is a titanium
screw that can replace the root of a tooth when
it fails. Just like a tooth root, it is placed
into the jawbone. Implants are a safe,
well-established, tried-and-tested treatment.
Its probably true to say that implants, much
like natural teeth, will last for as long as you
care for them. How well you look after your
implants and whether you go for your regular
maintenance appointments will have the biggest
impact on how long they will last.
