Extractions
A severely damaged tooth may need to be extracted. Permanent teeth may also need to be removed for orthodontic treatment.Dentures
Dentures are prosthetic devices replacing lost teeth. There are two types of dentures – partial and full. Full dentures are often referred to as “false teeth”.
Fillings
Dental fillings and repairs use restorative materials used to repair teeth which have been compromised due to cavities or trauma.
Root Canals
Root canals treat diseases or absessed teeth. Once a tooth is injured, cracked or decayed, it is necessary to open the tooth and clean out the infected tissue in the centre. This space is then filled and the opening sealed.
Teeth Whitening
Teeth naturally darken with age, however staining may be caused by various foods and beverages such as coffee, tea and berries, some drugs such as tetracycline, smoking, or a trauma to a tooth.
You will also learn which foods to eat for good oral health. As we've seen, fat-soluble vitamins including Vitamin D, Vitamin A, and Vitamin K2 are crucial for strong teeth and good oral health. A diet for dental health should also promote probiotic oral bacteria and help healthy mineral exchange.
