Endodontists

Endodontists are dentists who specialize in tooth pain, disease, and infection. Endodontics refers to conditions where the nerves of the tooth become injured or diseased. In these situations, treatment by an Endodontist is required. The most common type of endodontics is known as Root Canal Therapy. Root Canal Treatment is recommended once decay progresses and affects the tooth’s nerve. You may require root canal treatment to clear out the infected tissue and save the tooth. During the procedure, we remove the nerve and other soft tissue inside the tooth, fill the empty space with an elastic material, and seal it to keep out any further chance of infection. A treated tooth is more vulnerable to chipping or cracking, so we may install a crown over it to prevent damage.

Dental X-rays

Dental X-rays can help your dentist detect oral health issues, like cavities and gum disease, before they worsen. There are many different types of dental X-rays, including intraoral (taken inside your mouth) and extraoral (taken outside your mouth). Dental X-rays are essential to proper oral health and maintenance.

Dental Sealants

Dental Sealants are used to fill in deeper fissures you may have on the tops of your back molars. Filling in these cracks makes teeth easier to clean and decreases the chances of tooth decay.

 

Restorative Dental Care

Restorative Dental Care is a form of dentistry that replaces or repairs damaged or missing teeth. The damage can be caused by decay, injury, or other oral conditions. The goal is to improve oral health, chewing function, and natural.
 

Dental Crowns

If your tooth has a substantial amount of decay or already has several fillings, we may suggest getting a crown to fix it. These custom-created restorations, also known as caps, cover the entire tooth and provide strength and protection from bacteria and other harmful elements. The most natural-looking material choice for a crown is porcelain.

Bridge

When you get a tooth extracted because of decay or damage, our team offers bridges to fill the vacant spot in the lost tooth effectively. Bridges are custom-made restorations with an artificial tooth or teeth attached to the adjacent natural teeth. We reduce the size of the adjacent teeth to fit crowns on them as support for the bridge, and the crowns and artificial teeth blend in with the rest of your teeth.
A bridge, also called a fixed bridge or a fixed dental prosthesis, is a dental restoration that replaces one or more missing teeth. It extends across an area that has no teeth and is typically made up of an artificial tooth fused between 2 crowns. (A crown is a hollow, artificial tooth that fits over a natural tooth or a dental implant). The bridge is held firmly in place by your own teeth on each side of the missing one(s) or by dental implants. A bridge is permanent and cannot be removed.

Denture Full and Partial

A denture is a removable replacement for missing teeth and surrounding tissues. Two types of dentures are available — complete and partial dentures. Complete dentures are used when all the teeth are missing, while partial dentures are used when some natural teeth remain.

Crown lengthening

Is a gum surgery procedure which adjusts the position of the gum around the tooth’s crown, in order to expose a greater height of tooth structure. It is usually done by a periodontist or a general dentist. It can be necessary if a tooth is too short or broken at the gum line, or if there is decay under the gum. The procedure involves removing excess gum tissue, and sometimes bone, around the tooth. It can take several weeks for healing.

Tooth Extraction

Extraction may be necessary for many reasons, including severe damage or decay. One of the most common dental procedures, a tooth extraction can eliminate bacteria and improve your overall oral health. Wisdom teeth are third molars at the back of the mouth that don’t have enough room to emerge or develop normally. Wisdom teeth are the last adult teeth to come into the mouth (erupt). Most people have four wisdom teeth at the back of the mouth — two on the top, two on the bottom. Most people suffer from issues with their wisdom teeth when they grow in during their teen or young adult years. We understand the pain and suffering impacted wisdom teeth can cause. We stay on top of our patients’ oral health and wisdom teeth development using x-rays and examinations.

Dental Inlays and Onlays

Sedation Dentistry

By definition, Sedation Dentistry refers to the use of pharmacological agents to relax and calm patients during a dental visit; and is sometimes referred to as “sleep dentistry”. However, with the exception of general anaesthesia, you remain conscious and/or awake when under sedation.

Nitrous Oxide Sedation

Nitrous oxide is commonly known as “laughing gas.” You inhale nitrous oxide through a mask or nosepiece, and calming effects begin within three to five minutes. Your dentist controls the amount of sedation you receive and adjusts dosages accordingly throughout your procedure. Once your treatment is over, your dentist gives you pure oxygen to flush the nitrous oxide out of your system. Because the laughing gas leaves your system so quickly, you’ll be able to drive yourself home after the procedure.

Oral Conscious Sedation

The Dentist gives you sedative medication (usually in pill form) about an hour before your procedure begins. Oral sedation makes you quite groggy, and you may even fall asleep. But you’ll still be able to communicate with your dentist if necessary, and you’ll awaken with a gentle nudge. Because oral sedation temporarily affects your memory and motor skills, you’ll need a friend or family member to drive you home after your procedure.
 
IV sedation dentistry Etobicoke

IV Sedation

The deepest form of conscious sedation available in a dental office setting. Your healthcare provider delivers sedative medications directly to your bloodstream through an IV line. During your procedure, your dentist monitors your heart rate, blood pressure and oxygen levels. They can adjust your dosage at any point and can use reversal medications if necessary. Most people who receive IV sedation dentistry fall asleep and have little to no memory of their treatment when they wake up. This option is best for people with severe dental anxiety or those who are undergoing lengthy procedures.

Dental Implants

Implants are used to replace missing roots and support artificial replacement teeth. They are comfortable and look like natural teeth.

What are dental implants?

A dental implant is an artificial root made of titanium metal. It is inserted into the jawbone to replace the root of the natural tooth. An artificial replacement tooth is attached to the implant. The implant acts as an anchor to hold the replacement tooth in place. Missing teeth affect many aspects of your life, including your oral health, appearance, and even the ability to chew or speak clearly in some cases. Losing one or more teeth and neglecting to resolve the gaps in your smile can lead to additional dental problems. The changes in your jawbone and teeth alignment can also alter your face and make you look older. Dental implants to restore your smile and prevent all these problems from affecting you.

Amalgam and Composite Fillings

Fillings Plaque collecting on your teeth can dissolve the enamel and result in a cavity. We resolve cavities by cleaning out the affected tissue and filling the space using porcelain or metal filling. These dental fillings are an easy solution to minor damage caused by tooth decay. They restore the tooth’s surface and protect the space from bacteria and other contaminants that could cause another cavity.

Amalgam fillings

Amalgam fillings are stronger, and longer-lasting than composite fillings, but they also contain mercury, which can cause allergic reactions or toxicity in some people.

Composite fillings

Composite fillings are more modern and safer, but they are less resistant to breakage and need more frequent replacement.
There are two types of dental restorations that differ in color, material, durability, cost, and side-effects. Amalgam fillings are made of metal, usually silver, and are visible in the mouth. Composite fillings are made of tooth-colored resin and blend in with the natural teeth.
