Dental Procedures
Learn about common dental procedures including what to expect, how long they take, and how much they cost.
Dental Crown
A dental crown is a tooth-shaped cap placed over a damaged tooth to restore its shape, size, strength, and appearance.
Root Canal
A root canal removes infected pulp from inside a tooth, cleans and shapes the canal, then fills and seals the space.
Tooth Extraction
A tooth extraction is the removal of a tooth from its socket in the bone, either simple (visible tooth) or surgical (impacted tooth).
Cavity Filling
A dental filling restores a tooth damaged by decay by removing the decayed portion and filling the area with composite, amalgam, or other materials.
Dental Implant
A dental implant is a titanium post surgically placed into the jawbone to serve as an artificial tooth root, topped with a crown.
Wisdom Teeth Removal
Wisdom teeth removal extracts one or more third molars, often impacted or causing crowding, pain, or infection.
Braces Adjustment
A braces adjustment tightens or changes the wires and bands on your braces to gradually move teeth into proper alignment.
Dental Cleaning
A professional dental cleaning removes plaque, tartar, and stains that regular brushing cannot, helping prevent cavities and gum disease.
Dental Bridge
A dental bridge replaces one or more missing teeth by anchoring artificial teeth to adjacent natural teeth or implants.
Dentures
Dentures are removable replacements for missing teeth, available as full dentures (all teeth) or partial dentures (some teeth).
Custom Mouthguard
A custom mouthguard is a dental appliance made from impressions of your teeth to protect against teeth grinding or sports injuries.
Retainer
A retainer is a custom-made device worn after braces to maintain teeth alignment and prevent them from shifting back.
Dental Veneer
Dental veneers are thin, custom-made shells bonded to the front of teeth to improve appearance by changing color, shape, or size.
Teeth Whitening
Professional teeth whitening uses bleaching agents to lighten tooth color and remove stains, achieving faster and more dramatic results than at-home products.
Deep Cleaning (Scaling & Root Planing)
Deep cleaning goes below the gum line to remove plaque and tartar from tooth roots, treating and preventing gum disease.
Dental Bonding
Dental bonding applies tooth-colored resin to repair chipped, cracked, or discolored teeth, improving their appearance.
Gum Graft
A gum graft takes tissue from elsewhere in the mouth to cover exposed tooth roots and treat gum recession.
Dental Sealant
Dental sealants are thin protective coatings applied to back teeth to prevent cavities by sealing grooves and pits.
Dental Bone Graft
A bone graft adds bone material to the jaw to provide a foundation for dental implants or treat bone loss.
Tooth Contouring
Tooth contouring reshapes teeth by removing small amounts of enamel to improve appearance and alignment.
Inlay/Onlay
Inlays and onlays are custom-made fillings created in a lab, used for larger cavities when a regular filling is insufficient.
