Dental implants replace missing teeth with a titanium post placed in the jawbone, topped with a custom crown. The process includes consultation, implant placement, healing, and crown placement. Implants help protect the jawbone and prevent adjacent teeth from shifting.

Dentures are false teeth designed to replace missing teeth, available as partial or full dentures. They are custom-made to fit the mouth and match natural tooth color, restoring chewing and speaking comfort.

Periodontal treatment addresses gum disease, starting with a deep cleaning to remove plaque under and around the gum line. In severe cases with bone loss, extraction may be recommended.

Invisalign uses a series of clear, custom-made aligners to gently straighten teeth. The process begins with 3D scans, and aligners are worn for about 14 days each, for 20-22 hours per day. Treatment typically lasts 12-18 months.

Root canal treatment removes infected or damaged pulp from the tooth to prevent tooth loss. The procedure includes taking radiographs, administering local anesthetic, isolating the tooth, drilling a small hole, removing pulp, cleaning, and sealing with gutta-percha. A crown is placed later for protection.

Professional teeth whitening uses a stronger whitening gel and controlled care from a dentist. The process involves protecting gums and lips, applying whitening gel, and using a light to boost the gel. Sessions typically last 60-90 minutes.

Custom-made mouthguards are fabricated from detailed impressions taken by the dentist, providing optimal fit, protection, and comfort for athletes and those who grind their teeth.

Porcelain veneers are thin porcelain chips placed over the front surfaces of teeth to mask minor cosmetic imperfections. The process involves removing a small portion of enamel, taking impressions, and bonding custom veneers after 1-2 weeks.

Custom crowns and bridges restore damaged or missing teeth, providing strength and a natural look. The process typically involves two visits: first, contouring the tooth and taking impressions; second, fitting and bonding the permanent restoration.
