Periodontics

Gum infections and disease can have serious complications if they aren’t treated. They can lead to loss of teeth, and have also been linked to other, more serious complications for your health. Regular brushing, flossing, and oral hygiene appointments are your best defence against gum disease. We also provide deep cleaning treatments and other specialized treatments to keep your gums healthy.

Frenectomy

Frenectomy is the treatment for ‘tongue-tied’ and other conditions that result when connective tissue in the mouth is too tight. These conditions mainly affect children and are detected during routine dental examinations. We relieve the tightness by surgically altering or removing the tissue.

Scaling and Root Planing

If plaque and tartar have been building up, it sometimes becomes necessary to use a deep cleaning scaling treatment to remove them from above the gum line. We may also recommend root planing to smooth the roots of your teeth and prevent irritation and further tartar buildup.

Extractions

Extractions are sometimes needed, especially if a tooth has been damaged or becomes loose due to infection or injury. We also sometimes extract teeth as part of orthodontic treatment. Extractions are performed under local anesthetic and we have sedation available.
