Dental Implants

A dental implant is a root made from a biocompatible material (often titanium) that the dentist places in the jawbone to support a crown, bridge or full denture. Visually, an implant looks like a screw which allows it to become more firmly embedded in the bone. Dental implants come in different lengths, sizes and shapes depending on the situation.

Gum Grafts

A gum graft is a procedure where gum tissue is removed from the mouth's roof and transplanted onto an area of the gums. This may help to repair receding gums, cover exposed tooth roots and lessen any symptoms that may be associated which could include eventual tooth loss or severe tooth sensitivity, to protect your oral health.

Tooth Extractions

Sometimes it is necessary to extract a tooth, for example, when a baby tooth is slow to fall and interferes with the eruption of the permanent tooth or when a permanent tooth is broken, too damaged or lacking space.

Tooth extraction is performed under local anesthesia. In some cases, drugs will be prescribed to control the sensitivity.

Wisdom Tooth Removal

If the wisdom teeth have the required space in the jaw, they will erupt normally. On the other hand, if they are affecting the adjacent molars or if they are likely to become a source of problems, it will be best to remove them.

Wisdom teeth usually appear between the ages of 16 and 25. It is therefore strongly recommended that people in this age group have the eruption trajectory and the position of their wisdom teeth checked.

Frenectomy

A frenectomy procedure eliminates a frenum. This is a small piece of tissue that connects your lips, cheeks or tongue to your gum area. Our dentists perform these frenectomies for babies, children and adults when the frenum is limiting function, this issue is commonly known as cheek- tied, lip-tied or tongue-tied.

Bone Grafts & Sinus Lifts

In a bone graft procedure your dentist will add bone tissue to your jaw bone, to make it strong enough to support a dental implant. A sinus lift is a bone graft procedure where your dentist adds bone material to the upper back jaw in order to increase and raise the amount of bone in the  area of the sinuses to put in a dental implant.
