Bruxism and Temporomandibular
Bruxism is when you grind or clench your teeth, usually while you sleep without knowing it. This can cause problems like worn-down teeth, tooth sensitivity, and jaw pain. Temporomandibular Joint (TMJ) procedures treat issues with the jaw joint and muscles around it. Treatments may include mouthguards to protect your teeth, physical therapy, medication, or surgery in serious cases. These treatments help relieve pain, stop further damage, and restore normal jaw movement, improving your overall oral health and quality of life.
Dental Implants
Dental implants are permanent tooth replacements that mimic the natural tooth structure. They consist of a titanium post surgically inserted into the jawbone, providing a sturdy foundation for a custom-made crown. This process prevents bone loss and maintains facial structure. Dental implants function and feel like natural teeth, restoring chewing ability and speech. They offer a long-lasting solution for missing teeth without affecting adjacent teeth. With proper care, dental implants can provide a reliable and aesthetically pleasing solution for patients seeking tooth restoration.
Dental Veneers
Dental veneers are thin, custom-made shells crafted from tooth-colored materials like porcelain or composite resin. They are bonded to the front surface of teeth to improve their appearance. Veneers can effectively mask a variety of imperfections, including stains, chips, gaps, and misalignments, creating a more uniform and attractive smile. The process typically involves minimal tooth preparation, making it a relatively conservative cosmetic option. Veneers are durable and can provide long-lasting results with proper care, enhancing both the aesthetics and confidence of patients.
Mouth Protrusion Orthognatic S
Mouth protrusion orthognathic surgery is done to fix a severe jaw misalignment where the lower jaw sticks out too far. A specialised surgeon, called a maxillofacial surgeon, moves the upper and lower jaws to improve how your face looks and works. Before the surgery, detailed evaluations are done to plan the exact changes needed. During the surgery, the surgeon makes planned cuts, repositions the jaws, and might use bone grafts or reshaping techniques. After the surgery, orthodontic treatment (like braces) is often needed to perfect the results.
Orthodontic Treatment
Orthodontic treatment involves correcting dental misalignments and bite irregularities to enhance oral health and aesthetics. This process typically utilises braces or clear aligners to gradually move teeth into proper alignment. During treatment, periodic adjustments are made by an orthodontist to ensure progress and comfort. Orthodontic procedures can address various issues, such as overcrowding, gaps between teeth, overbites, underbites, and crossbites. By aligning the teeth and jaws, orthodontic treatment not only improves smile aesthetics but also enhances bite function and overall oral health, leading to a more confident and comfortable smile.
Periodontal Therapy
Periodontal therapy aims to treat and manage gum disease, a common condition caused by bacterial infection and inflammation of the gums and surrounding tissues. This treatment involves various procedures, including scaling and root planing to remove plaque and tartar from below the gumline, antibiotic therapy to eliminate bacteria, and in severe cases, surgical interventions like flap surgery or bone grafting. Periodontal therapy helps to halt the progression of gum disease, prevent tooth loss, and maintain overall oral health.
