A dental check-up is a routine visit to assess and maintain oral health. It typically involves several steps to ensure your teeth, gums, and overall oral health are in good condition.

General check up includes:

• Visual Inspection (Checking for cavities, worn enamel, and tooth fractures)

• X-Rays (Detect hidden decay, bone loss, or impacted teeth)

• Fluoride treatment

• Oral Cancer Screening

• Periodontal (Gum) Assessment

A tooth-colored filling is a dental restoration made from materials that closely match the natural color of teeth, providing a more aesthetic alternative to traditional silver (amalgam) fillings.

These fillings are commonly used to repair teeth affected by decay, minor fractures, or other damage.

An onlay is a more conservative restoration, often referred to as a partial crown, that covers the damaged portion of a tooth. It is used when the damage is too extensive for a filling but does not require a full crown.

• To restore teeth with moderate decay or fractures, particularly on chewing surfaces.

• To replace large or failing fillings without covering the entire tooth.

• When preserving as much natural tooth structure as possible is a priority.

A dental crown is a "cap" that completely covers a damaged tooth, restoring its shape, size, strength, and appearance.

Uses:

• To restore a tooth with severe decay or damage that can't be fixed with a filling.

• To protect a weakened tooth from breaking.

• To cover a cracked or fractured tooth.

• To restore a tooth after a root canal.

• For cosmetic purposes, such as covering a discolored or misshapen tooth.

• To support a dental bridge or cover a dental implant.

Invisalign is a modern orthodontic treatment that uses a series of clear, removable aligners to straighten teeth. It offers a more discreet alternative to traditional metal braces, making it popular among adults and teens.

• The composite material is a resin that can be sculpted and polished to mimic the natural appearance of teeth.

• It bonds directly to the tooth structure, providing strength and durability.

• Applications:

  • Repairing chipped or cracked teeth.

  • Closing gaps between teeth (diastema).

  • Improving the appearance of discolored teeth.

  • Reshaping or lengthening teeth.

  • Protecting exposed tooth roots due to gum recession.
