Gum Disease
Gum disease occurs when bacterial growth in your mouth leads to the corrosion of your teeth and gums. Left untreated, long-term effects include gum deterioration and early tooth loss. Progression of gum disease may be present without any symptoms. Regular dental check ups are important in the prevention of gum disease.
Cosmetic Dentistry
Veneers are a thin shell of porcelain or resin that is bonded to the surface of the teeth to improve the cosmetics of your smile. They are also used to restore any lost tooth structure where indicated. Veneers can enhance the shape of your teeth, make your teeth as white as you want, and give you the smile you have always desired.
Invisalign/ClearCorrect
When people hear the word “braces” the first image that comes to mind is metal wire and brackets on the teeth. Patients now have the option of using clear and removable aligners to straighten their teeth. Aligners are custom-designed trays that gradually move teeth until you have the beautiful smile you have always wanted.
Tooth Whitening
Teeth stains are inevitable due to our consumption of a variety of foods and drinks (soda, spicy food, coffee, etc.). However, advanced teeth whitening technology has enabled dentists to whiten teeth without adversely affecting the tooth structure. The two methods of professional whitening are tray whitening and in-office whitening.
Crowns & Bridges
A crown is a restoration that is placed on teeth that have lost a lot of their structure. They are usually necessary after root canals. A bridge is a dental appliance that is used to replace missing teeth. Bridges are bonded to the surrounding teeth.
Dental Implants
When a single tooth is lost, other teeth surrounding it may begin to shift, resulting in an unsightly appearance. A dental implant has the look, feel and function of a natural tooth. Its positioning where the prior tooth was prevents other teeth from shifting out of place. The result is a visually appealing smile.
Root Canal
When you have a large cavity or a fractured tooth, the pulp of your tooth may become exposed and infected. Root canal treatment is the process of going inside the tooth and removing the infected, dead tissue. The space is then disinfected and sealed with special materials. Afterwards, Dr. Gao will place a crown on your tooth to safeguard against fracture.
Tooth-Colored Fillings
Composite fillings are made from durable plastics that are similar in color to natural teeth. Because the composite fillings are tooth-colored, they look more natural and are less noticeable compared to other types of fillings. Another benefit of tooth-colored fillings is that they are compatible with sealants and able to bond to tooth structures.
Orthodontics
There are various types of braces available to choose from. Read below to find out the various types available today but make sure to talk to one of our orthodontic professional to find out which braces are the right fit for you.
The type of braces you get depends on a number of factors.
Sealants
Sealants are thin layers of resin that are placed on the pits, fissures, and grooves of molars to prevent decay on these surfaces. The majority of decay on back teeth starts in the grooves and pits of chewing surfaces, especially during the first few years after their eruption. Sealing these surfaces with composite resins prevents decay.
Inlays & Onlays
Inlays and Onlays are lab-made restorations that are placed on teeth when the cavity or lost tooth structure is too large to be restored by a simple filling. Inlays and onlays can replace most teeth fillings and are sometimes preferred over conventional fillings. The process of making an inlay is very similar to a crown.
Dentures
One of the most versatile and affordable solutions for tooth loss is a set of removable dentures. Full dentures are dentures that comprise a full set of upper and lower teeth. This type of denture uses suction to stay in place. Partial dentures are a single piece fitting that is supported by the remaining teeth and gums.
