Our General Dentistry services
Composite Fillings
Composite fillings are tooth-coloured restorations that treat cavities while blending seamlessly with your natural teeth, offering both protection and a natural-looking finish.
Dental Bonding
Transform your smile in just one visit with dental bonding, a quick and effective way to achieve stunning results and enhance your confidence.
Dental Bridges
Restore your smile and replace missing teeth with a custom-designed dental prosthesis that is securely anchored in place.
Dental Crowns
Dental crowns play a crucial role in restorative dentistry, enhancing the strength, appearance, and longevity of your teeth, giving you both functionality and a beautiful smile.
Dental Extractions
Tooth removal, whether it’s a straightforward extraction or a more complex oral surgical procedure, is a common treatment that is generally associated with little to no significant pain or discomfort.
Dental Implants
A dental implant functions similarly to a natural tooth root, offering a sturdy base for tooth replacement. It is subsequently topped with a restoration, such as a dental crown, which restores the tooth's functionality, enhances its appearance, and ensures it feels natural in your mouth.
Teeth Cleanings
Keep your smile healthy and bright with regular teeth cleanings. Prevent gum disease and tooth decay by scheduling a cleaning and checkup every 6 to 8 months. Don't wait for dental pain and unexpected expenses—stay proactive with your oral health.
The Importance of Early Intervention and Routine Care
Prevention is always better than cure, and we’re committed to keeping you smiling. Your health is our top priority, which is why our routine care and early intervention stem from genuine concern for your well-being. By maintaining the health of your teeth, gums, jaw, and tongue now and tackling issues early, you can sidestep discomfort, pain, and unexpected costs. That’s why our patients keep smiling.
Keep Your Natural Teeth for Longer
Did you know that cavities are the leading cause of tooth loss in young adults, while gum disease is the main culprit for older adults? By practicing good oral hygiene at home and visiting us for routine exams, we can catch the early signs of gum disease and tooth decay, helping to stop problems before they get worse and keep your teeth healthy for longer.
Save Your Money
Routine teeth cleanings and exams are affordable, predictable expenses that can easily fit into your budget. Early treatments, like composite fillings for tooth decay, are also cost-effective and a smart long-term investment. More serious health issues, however, often require more expensive procedures, making prevention the best way to save in the long run.
Don’t Even Think About It
The best part about great oral health is that you don’t have to think about it. No aches, no inflammation, and no unbearable toothaches. You can eat what you want and smile with confidence. Well-maintained teeth are naturally beautiful, comfortable, and reliable.

Frequently Asked Questions
A routine check-up includes teeth cleaning and an exam. Regular cleanings remove plaque and tartar that build up even with consistent brushing and flossing, while the exam allows your dental team to monitor your overall oral health, paying close attention to any potential problem areas.
Cavities form when leftover food particles, especially in hard-to-reach spots, fuel bacteria in your mouth. These bacteria multiply and produce acids that weaken tooth enamel, leading to decay. A diet high in sugar or acidic foods and drinks like soda or coffee can accelerate this process.
Some individuals are genetically more prone to cavities, either due to higher susceptibility to cavity-causing bacteria or overcrowded teeth that are harder to clean. The best defense is maintaining excellent oral hygiene and healthy eating habits to reduce the risk.
Yes. Fillings stop further tooth decay and prevent future pain. It’s best to get a filling while the problem is still small and easily managed.
Tooth decay can often be prevented and sometimes reversed with regular cleanings. Early-stage decay can be treated with fluoride or composite fillings, while infected teeth can be saved with a root canal. For more severe cases, dental crowns or veneers can restore your tooth’s appearance and function. If extraction is necessary, implants or bridges can replace the missing tooth to restore your smile and bite.
Yes, routine cleanings and exams are safe and encouraged during pregnancy to prevent oral infections and address any symptoms that may arise. In emergencies, such as infections, more invasive treatments like a root canal may be needed. However, elective procedures like teeth whitening should be postponed until after the baby is born.
