Got a question?

How often do I need to go to the dentist?

We recommend visiting the dentist and hygienist at least twice a year. Changes to your dental health can occur quickly and this ensures any issues that might arise are diagnosed in a timely manner.
What does a hygienist do?

A dental hygienist specializes in the prevention, as well as treatment of dental diseases such as gingivitis and periodontitis. A hygienist’s role is to try to prevent the progress of all types of dental disease.
I have some staining on my teeth, how can I fix it?"

It may be possible for us to remove these stains with basic polishing techniques. Also, we have a great whitening system Kör to brighten your teeth in a matter of weeks, just ask!
I chipped my tooth, what can I do?"

There is no way to treat a cracked tooth at home. You need to see us. Sometimes the tooth looks fine but hurts only when you eat or when the temperature in your mouth changes. If your tooth hurts all the time, it may have a damaged nerve or blood vessels. This is a serious warning sign.
I'm terrified of the dentist, do you treat nervous/anxious patients?"

Anxiety is common amongst dental patients, but it can be treated. We provide a calm, safe environment for all treatment performed as well as several modes of sedation for the anxious patient.
What's the difference between crowns and veneers?

The simplest answer is that Crowns cover more of the tooth surface whereas veneers cover just the front part. Crowns are most frequently used to repair teeth that are moderate to severely cracked or broken or where instances of decay cannot be repaired by a filling. Veneers are made out of porcelain and are employed to make teeth look natural and healthy.
What is an implant?

A dental implant has a titanium component buried invisibly below the gum and on top of it the porcelain crown which is matched to the color of your own teeth.
How do I know if I have periodontal disease?

Periodontal disease will be diagnosed by your Hygienist and Dental team. Periodontal disease is an infectious process classified according to how much damage has been sustained by the structures surrounding the teeth, namely the gingiva (gums) and bone. It is normally completely painless. It can happen around any teeth, affecting some or many of your teeth to varying degrees. The better you clean your teeth to remove all the plaque bacteria, the less likely it is to develop.
