Routine Checkups:
We recommend that you visit your dentist once every six months for a routine dental check-up. During your visit, our general dentist will inspect your teeth and gums, identifying any issues that can lead to tooth decay or periodontal disease. With proper care and attention, most dental problems such as cavities and gum disease can be prevented. Our oral hygienist will also recommend a suitable oral plan to keep your teeth healthy until your next dental visit.
Preventive Care:
Protect your teeth from decay and disease through the use of dental sealants and fluoride treatments. Sealants are clear plastic materials applied to your teeth, forming a barrier against plaque and germs, thus preventing cavities. Fluoride treatments are recommended for all children under the age of 16 and for adults susceptible to tooth decay. It is usually applied as a fluoride varnish brushed onto the teeth. At Unique Dental Clinic, we will examine your teeth and recommend the best solution for your specific needs.
Teeth Cleaning:
Regular professional dental cleaning is recommended to prevent the build-up of plaque and tartar on your teeth and gums. Oral hygiene practices such as regular brushing and flossing might not be able to remove hard deposits from hard-to-reach areas in your mouth. Continual build-up of plaque and tartar can lead to gingivitis and severe periodontal disease that may even lead to tooth loss. Your dental hygienist at Unique Dental Clinic will thoroughly remove the hardened plaque followed by cleaning and polishing your teeth.
Dental Fillings:
A dental cavity, also called caries, is a permanently damaged area in your teeth that develops into tiny holes. If left untreated, cavities can result in further dental problems that may lead to root canal treatment or tooth loss. If you feel sensitivity to sweet, cold, or hot food and beverages, then it’s time to visit your dentist. During treatment, our dentist will remove the decay, clean the area, and fill the cavity with a filling material such as amalgam, porcelain, composite, or even gold.
Extraction:
Tooth extraction is sometimes necessary when the tooth is badly damaged for effective repair solutions. This happens when a tooth is broken, loose, or decayed to a large extent. Extraction will also help prevent the spread of infection from the decayed tooth to other areas in your mouth. Sometimes extractions are necessary to remove deep-rooted baby teeth or wisdom teeth that are impacted or infected. At Unique Dental Clinic, we place a high value on the comfort and safety of our patients during and after the procedure. You will be given a local anesthetic to numb the area, so you remain free of pain. If several teeth are to be extracted at the same time, our dentists will use a general anesthetic to sedate you while the procedure is underway.
