If you’re looking to improve the overall health and appearance of your teeth, you’re in the right place!(And if you’re looking for periodontal, orthodontic or surgical services, simply use the menu above to find what you need.) Complete Check-Ups Without a dentist’s help, it can be impossible to identify problems like plaque, caries, tartar and oral cancer. For this reason, it’s recommended that you get regular check-ups once or twice a year, no matter how healthy you feel you are.

But what do you do when an entire row of upper or lower teeth is missing – as is the case for 40 million Americans today? Our recommendation is that you look into dentures, which can either be removable or permanent. The latter kind can use a mere 4 implants to hold an entire mouthful of replacement teeth; to learn more, simply click here.Tooth Contouring and Shaping If you want to drastically alter the shape of your teeth, you can get veneers – but what if you just want a slight correction? In that case, you’re better off using contouring and shaping to gently alter the appearance (and size) of your teeth.

If you don’t have enough of it, your teeth will lose colour, health and structural integrity. This is why you may want to get fluoride applications from a medical professional.

These grooves are a problem waiting to happen, especially for kids – which is why sealing them is an increasingly popular option.

Afterwards, it’s best to fill it up to ensure the structural integrity of the tooth and prevent further deterioration. This is done using fillings, which you can learn about here.
