Adults

Comprehensive Oral ExaminationYour first appointment with us will always involve a detailed assessment of your oral condition with x-rays, including checks for oral cancer, jaw joint dysfunction, tooth decay, tooth wear, signs of erosion and gum disease.
Cosmetic Assessment/Whitening

If you would like to improve your smile - whether it is your smile line, teeth alignment and/or the existing shade of your teeth, we are able to discuss your concerns and customise treatment options with you to help you achieve your desired aesthetic outcome.

Emergency ServicesWe understand that dental emergency can happen at any time, as such, we strive to provide you with same day service to alleviate any toothache or discomfort that you may be experiencing.
Scaling and Polishing/Periodontal TreatmentPeriodontal disease is one of the main causes of early tooth loss. Recent studies have shown that chronic gum disease may increase the risk of heart disease. Regular scaling and polishing helps to improve your oral health.
Topical Fluoride TreatmentWe provide fluoride treatment after scaling and polishing to strengthen the enamel and to reduce sensitivity.
Tooth-Coloured RestorationsWe use tooth-coloured resin restorations instead of amalgam for superior aesthetics.
Crowns/Bridges/VeneersCrowns are used to strengthen weakened teeth that are heavily filled, cracked or root canal treated. Bridges are one of the fixed options to replace missing teeth. Veneers are placed to improve the aesthetics of front teeth by modifying the shape and shade of the natural teeth.
Root Canal TreatmentRoot canal treatment can help to preserve a natural tooth which is dead or infected. This is a very common procedure which can be done comfortably under local anaesthetics.
Dental Implants

A dental implant is one of the fixed options to replace a missing tooth. It is essentially a titanium screw that is placed in the jawbone, which acts as an anchor for an artificial tooth replacement such as a crown.

(Please note that any surgical or invasive procedure carries risks. Before proceeding, you should seek a second opinion from an appropriately qualified health practitioner.)

DenturesRemovable partial or full dentures are made to replace missing teeth and to restore function and aesthetics. In many cases your remaining natural teeth will be used to support a partial denture, it is therefore important to have a comprehensive oral examination before having a denture made.
Extractions

Removing your natural teeth is usually the last resort, as losing teeth has a domino effect on your oral health. However if it is necessary, we are able to help you with simple or surgical extractions.

(Please note that any surgical or invasive procedure carries risks. Before proceeding, you should seek a second opinion from an appropriately qualified health practitioner.)

Holistic Approach

We understand that your general well being does not confine to the oral cavity, but is also associated with your emotional and physical health. We can provide guidance on healthy eating habits for both adults and little ones, that is not only friendly to your teeth, but is also good for your general well being.

On top of that, safe removal of old amalgam fillings, the use of low exposure X-ray through our digital system and the use of non-metallic fillings and crowns are some of the many approaches we practice here in North Lakes Dental Centre.
