Dental Extractions

Sometimes a painful or unsalvageable tooth must be removed. Your dentist will explain all options, possible risks, and ways to replace the missing tooth. If the extraction is difficult or you have medical concerns, you may be referred to a specialist. The area will be numbed, so you’ll feel pressure but not pain. After the tooth is removed, you’ll receive instructions to help the area heal—follow them carefully and contact the clinic if any issues arise.

Root Canal

A root canal saves a tooth whose nerve is infected or damaged. The dentist numbs the area, removes the diseased nerve, cleans the canals, and seals them to stop infection. This relieves severe pain and avoids tooth extraction. Afterward, the tooth is rebuilt with a filling and often covered with a crown for strength.

Crowns & Bridges

Crowns strengthen and restore damaged teeth, while bridges replace missing teeth and prevent nearby teeth from shifting; both come in metal, porcelain‑fused‑to‑metal, or all‑porcelain options and are custom‑made using impressions for a natural, accurate fit.

Dentures

A denture is a removable replacement for missing teeth. Full dentures replace all teeth, while partial dentures fill specific gaps and attach to remaining teeth. They improve appearance, confidence, and eating comfort. Full dentures rest on the gums, and partial dentures come in different materials and designs. Your dentist will advise whether a partial denture or a bridge is the better option for you.

Cosmetic Dentistry

Teeth Whitening

Teeth whitening lightens stained or discoloured teeth using safe bleaching agents. It creates a brighter, more confident smile. Results are quick and noticeable with professional treatment.

Learn more

Invisalign

Invisalign uses clear, removable aligners to straighten teeth without metal braces. The aligners are custom made for comfort and discretion. Teeth gradually move into place through a series of aligners.

Learn more

Dental Veneers

Veneers are thin porcelain or composite shells bonded to the front of teeth. They improve the appearance of chipped, stained, or uneven teeth. This treatment creates a natural and long‑lasting smile transformation.

Learn more

White Fillings

White fillings are tooth‑coloured restorations used to repair decay or minor damage. They blend naturally with your teeth for a seamless look. The material bonds securely to the tooth to restore strength and shape.

Learn more

Composite Bonding

Composite bonding reshapes and repairs teeth using a tooth‑coloured resin. It can fix chips, gaps, and minor imperfections in one visit. The result is a smooth and natural‑looking improvement to your smile.

Orthodontics

Orthodontics – Straight Teeth

Orthodontic treatment aligns crowded or crooked teeth to improve appearance and function. It can also correct bite problems that affect chewing and jaw health. Treatment options vary based on age and dental needs.

Learn more

Invisible Braces

Invisible braces use clear aligners to straighten teeth discreetly. They are removable, making eating and cleaning easier. This option is ideal for those wanting a subtle and comfortable way to improve their smile.

Learn more

Children’s Braces

Children’s braces guide developing teeth into the correct position. Early treatment can prevent more complex issues later. Braces help create a healthy bite and confident smile as children grow.

Learn more

Ceramic & Metal Braces

Ceramic braces blend with tooth colour for a more aesthetic look, while metal braces offer strong and reliable movement. Both systems use brackets and wires to straighten teeth. Your dentist will recommend the best option based on your needs.

Learn more

Fixed & Removable Retainers

Retainers keep teeth in their new position after braces or orthodontic treatment. Fixed retainers are bonded behind the teeth, while removable ones are worn at night. Both help prevent teeth from shifting back over time.
