Our General Dentistry services
Composite Fillings
Tooth-coloured fillings fill cavities to stop them from getting bigger or permanently damaging your tooth. These white fillings are matched to your natural teeth so they look and feel great.
Dental Bridges
Restore gaps and replace your tooth or teeth with a custom made dental prosthesis permanently bonded in place.
Dental Crowns
Dental crowns make up an essential part of restorative dentistry, and can greatly improve the strength, appearance, and longevity of your teeth.
Dental Extractions
Having a tooth or teeth removed is a very common procedure that can be performed with very little pain or discomfort.
Dental Implants
An Implant acts like a natural tooth root and is finished off with a restoration such as a dental crown to help restore the function of your teeth, look good and feel natural.
Dentures
Get new dentures or maintain and repair your full or partial dentures. These modern dental prostheses can replace several or all of your teeth with minimal discomfort.
Root Canal
Root canals can be careful, quick, and relatively pain-free bringing you immediate relief and saving your natural tooth.
Same-Day Crowns
Custom made from start to finish in just one appointment -- no temporary crown needed.
Teeth Cleanings
Regular checkups and cleanings prevent gum disease and tooth decay. Plan your cleaning and checkup every 6 to 8 months to prevent the sudden onset of dental pain and unexpected expenses.
The Importance of Early Intervention and Routine Care
“An ounce of prevention is worth a pound of cure” perfectly captures our approach to dental care. Your smile and overall health are our top priorities, and our focus on routine care and early intervention stems from our commitment to your well-being. By maintaining the health of your teeth, gums, jaw, and tongue today and addressing issues as soon as they arise, we help you avoid unnecessary pain, discomfort, and unexpected costs. This proactive approach is what keeps our patients smiling with confidence and peace of mind.
Keep Your Natural Teeth for Longer
Tooth loss is often caused by cavities in young adults and gum disease in older adults. By practicing good oral hygiene at home and attending routine dental exams, you can keep your mouth healthy and strong. Regular check-ups allow us to detect early signs of gum disease and tooth decay, enabling us to intervene before these problems worsen.
Save Your Money
Routine cleanings and dental exams are affordable, predictable expenses that can easily fit into your budget. Addressing early signs of tooth decay with treatments like composite fillings is a cost-effective, long-term investment in your oral health. In contrast, more severe dental issues often require complex and expensive procedures, highlighting the importance of early intervention.
Don’t Even Think About It
The best part of maintaining excellent oral health is that it requires little thought. With well-cared-for teeth, you won’t experience the pain, inflammation, or toothaches that disrupt daily life. You can enjoy your favourite foods without hesitation and smile confidently, knowing your teeth are naturally beautiful, comfortable, and reliable.

Frequently Asked Questions
A routine dental check-up consists of a professional cleaning and an examination. During these appointments, plaque and tartar that build up over time—even with good brushing and flossing habits—are removed, keeping your teeth clean and healthy. The exam portion allows your dentist to assess your overall oral health, focusing on any areas that might need extra attention.
Cavities form when leftover food particles, especially those stuck in hard-to-clean spots, become a food source for bacteria in the mouth. As these bacteria consume the particles, they produce acids that attack the tooth enamel, gradually leading to decay. Diets high in sugary and acidic foods and beverages, like soda and coffee, can accelerate this process, making teeth more prone to developing cavities.
Cavities are not the same for everyone, and genetics can play a big role. Some people are naturally more susceptible to cavity-causing bacteria, or they may have crowded or misaligned teeth that are harder to clean thoroughly. While genetics are a factor, maintaining excellent oral hygiene and a healthy diet can significantly reduce your risk and help keep your teeth cavity-free.
Yes, you may still need a filling even if you’re not experiencing pain. Fillings are crucial for stopping further tooth decay and preventing future discomfort. Addressing the problem early, while it’s still manageable, is the best approach and can save you from more extensive and painful dental work down the road.
Restoring a decaying tooth depends on the severity of the decay and the condition of the tooth. Routine cleanings can help prevent decay or even reverse early signs of it. Fluoride treatments and composite fillings are effective for addressing early-stage decay. If a tooth becomes infected, it can often be saved with a root canal. For teeth that are significantly damaged, a crown can cap the tooth, restoring its appearance and function, or veneers can be used to improve the look of the tooth. In cases where decay is extensive, extraction may be necessary, with options like dental implants or bridges available to restore your bite and smile. Treatment is tailored to the specific needs of each patient.
Yes, it is safe and recommended to visit the dentist during pregnancy for preventative care, including teeth cleanings and routine exams. These visits help prevent oral infections and manage any dental symptoms that may arise during pregnancy. In the case of a dental emergency, such as an infection, more involved treatments like a root canal may be performed if necessary. However, elective cosmetic procedures, like teeth whitening, should be postponed until after the baby is born to ensure the safety of both mother and child.
