Sports Guards and Night (bite) Appliances in Windsor admin Sun, 06/21/2020 - 09:51

We provide orthopedic bite appliances and custom sports guards to prevent damage to your teeth. Custom appliances are designed to fit your mouth better than off-the-shelf models, which means they are more comfortable and provide better protection.

Bite Appliances

If you grind your teeth at night, an appliance may help you protect your teeth. Grinding can wear down the surface of your teeth, and it can also result in your teeth being forced out of alignment. A bite appliance prevents grinding while you sleep by keeping your jaws from moving.

Sports Guards

Custom athletic mouthwear is a vital line of defence against sports injuries. Our guards keep your teeth safe during any sport by absorbing impact and preventing you from clenching your teeth. Plus they’re made to fit the contours of your mouth, so they won’t slip or fly out while you play.

Keep your teeth safe. Call us today to learn more about our appliances and guards.

If you floss daily and brush after every meal, you’re doing a great job of keeping your teeth healthy. Good regular dental care habits are a key part of good dental health. The other key part is regular preventative dentistry. Oral hygiene care and dental examinations every six months give your teeth the best defence against decay.

Oral Hygiene

Plaque and tartar can build up where your brush and floss can’t reach it. It needs to be removed by a trained dental hygienist using special tools. Your hygienist can also clean your teeth to remove stains left by food and drink, and they provide fluoride treatments to protect your enamel from cavities.

Dental Exam

During a dental exam we look for early signs of issues like gum infections, decay, or oral cancer, and we also check your mouth and teeth for injuries. Early detection is important because it lets us treat problems before they become serious.

Root canals have a bit of a reputation problem, but they’re the best way to save a damaged tooth from needing to be extracted. This often-misunderstood procedure is actually very simple, and with modern treatments, it no longer deserves a reputation for being painful.

How does root canal treatment work?

Inside the roots of every one of your teeth there is an open area called the canal. Inside the canal is a bundle of blood vessels, nerves, and soft tissue called the pulp. Normally the pulp is protected by the rest of the tooth, but if the tooth gets broken and the canal is exposed to the outside, bacteria can infect the pulp. The resulting infection is very painful and can lead to the tooth being lost.

In root canal therapy, we simply remove the pulp from a damaged tooth. This is usually done through a tiny hole drilled in the tooth. Once the pulp is out, we sanitize the canal and seal the tooth. In most cases we restore the tooth with a dental crown after treatment.

Aren’t root canals painful?

Not really. Although they have a reputation of being painful, with modern anesthetic and techniques the procedure feels like getting a tooth filled.

Severe toothaches or pain beneath your gums can indicate an infection. Call our office to schedule an examination.

Gum disease can exist without symptoms. This dangerous condition can result in lost teeth, and it can have a serious impact on your overall health. The best defence against gum disease is good dental hygiene, combined with regular dental exams. We provide specialized services to keep your gums healthy and to prevent and treat gum disease.

Scaling and Root Planing

Tartar can build up on the roots of your teeth and irritate the surrounding tissues. To remedy this, we remove the tartar during a deep hygiene appointment. Similarly, infections around the roots of your teeth can affect the surface of your teeth. We use root planing to remove the damage from the root so the tissue can heal.

Extractions

Extraction is a last-resort measure to protect your mouth from a damaged or infected tooth. We usually only recommend extraction after we’ve tried everything possible to save the tooth from being lost. We extract the tooth to prevent infection and damage to your gums, jawbone, and other teeth. Extractions are performed using anesthetic and we offer replacement options including dental implants.

Crown Lengthening

Crown lengthening involves removing small amounts of gum tissue from around one or more teeth. We use it to reveal more of the teeth to make them appear longer for cosmetic reasons, or to prepare a tooth for a crown or other restoration.

Keep your gums safe and healthy. Book a dental examination with us today.

Cosmetic dental treatments can transform the appearance of your smile. We provide cosmetic treatments from minor enhancement of single teeth to complete full mouth makeovers.

Veneers

Veneers can change the appearance of your smile virtually overnight. These tiny porcelain shells make your teeth appear more even, straighter, and whiter.

Contouring and Bonding

These reshaping techniques are used to make minor changes to a single tooth. They’re used to make the tooth look more even, remove stains and chips, and fix the spacing between teeth.

Ceramic Crowns

Cosmetic ceramic crowns totally change the appearance of a single tooth. They can be used for teeth that are too misshapen or damaged to be treated with veneers or bonding. The ceramic crown is shaded to match your smile.

CEREC same-day crowns and restorations let us change the appearance of your teeth in a single appointment, without the need for messy impression trays or a temporary crown.

Dental Restoration in Windsor admin Wed, 10/23/2019 - 13:10

We provide a full range of dental restorations for damaged teeth. Whether you need a cavity filling, or you’ve broken a tooth, we’ve got you covered.

Fillings

Fillings are the tried-and-true treatment for cavities caused by tooth decay. They repair the damage to your tooth and protect it against further injury. And we provide tooth-coloured composite fillings that are mercury-free and shaded to blend with the rest of your tooth!

Crowns

Crowns are used to repair a badly damaged tooth. We provide a variety of crowns made from different materials, including metal-free ceramic crowns and same-day CEREC crowns. Crowns are coloured to match the shade of your natural teeth, so they blend into your smile.

Inlays & Onlays

Porcelain inlays and onlays are an alternative to fillings. They’re exceptionally strong so they are usually used to strengthen molars that have been damaged. Onlays are a type of inlay that restores the biting strength of a tooth. They’re used to restore the cusps (the pointy parts of the molar.)

Bridges

A bridge is one of the ways we replace a missing tooth. The bridge is made up of two crowns with one or more synthetic replacement teeth attached between them. The crowns are placed over the natural teeth adjacent to the gap left by the missing tooth. Once it’s in place, the bridge is virtually unnoticeable.

CEREC

Our CEREC system lets us take digital impressions and produce a crown in a very short time. This lets you get a crown in a single appointment without needing messy impression trays or a temporary crown.

If you need a restoration, call our office today to make an appointment.

Wisdom Teeth Removal in Windsor

Wisdom Teeth Removal in Windsor admin Fri, 09/06/2019 - 11:12

Your wisdom teeth can become crowded with your other molars when they begin to emerge, which can lead to impaction. Left untreated, impacted teeth can cause pain, infection, and damage to your other teeth. We usually remove the wisdom teeth when we determine they will impact the molars.

In most cases, wisdom teeth are extracted before they begin to emerge from your gums. The surgical procedure is done under anesthetic and we generally recommend sedation as the extraction can take a long time.

We assess wisdom teeth to see if they need to be removed. Book an examination with us today.

We can extract impacted wisdom teeth before they damage your other teeth.
