Tudor Glen Smile Clinic

Partial and complete dentures replace missing teeth to restore function and aesthetics. They are removable and require regular care.

Whitening can brighten stained teeth, but results vary and may not change the shade of existing restorations. Consultation with the dentist is advised.

Tooth removal is considered when saving the tooth is not possible. The dentist discusses alternatives and may refer to an oral surgeon for complex cases.

Fluoride helps re-mineralize teeth and protect against bacteria. The frequency and method are tailored to each individual, and patients may decline.

When the pulp becomes infected, a root canal may save the tooth. The pulp is removed, canals are cleaned and sealed, and a crown is often recommended.

Customized mouthguards protect teeth and tissues during sports, with a range of colors available to match team colors.

The clinic provides standard and personalized tips for brushing, flossing, denture hygiene, and reaching hard-to-clean areas, helping patients develop a homecare routine.

Sealants protect deep grooves on molars by blocking out hard-to-reach areas. They are placed without freezing and are a preventative measure.

The dentist performs a thorough examination of the face, neck, and oral cavity, including an oral cancer screening, evaluation of oral soft tissues, and a detailed exam of the teeth.

Common unexpected problems such as chipped teeth, toothaches, and dislodged fillings are addressed. An emergency exam focuses on a particular concern and is investigated thoroughly.

Radiographs allow the dentist to see below the surface of the tooth and into the bone and surrounding tissues. Types include bite wing, periapical, and panoramic radiographs.

The dental team screens for periodontal disease and customizes maintenance schedules with cleanings at three, four, six, or twelve-month intervals.

If a cavity is found, a filling is placed. The dentist explains options and the choice of material is ultimately the patient's decision.

Crowns (caps) cover a tooth when fillings are not possible, and bridges replace missing teeth by bridging the gap. Various materials are available.

Custom-fitted night guards protect teeth and jaw joints from grinding and clenching, allowing jaws to glide without direct contact.
