CLEANINGS AND PREVENTION

• Dental exam
  The importance of regular dental exams cannot be emphasized enough. They are essential in early detection of oral conditions like oral cancer.
• Dental cleaning
  Professional teeth cleaning, also called prophylaxis, is performed by a registered and licensed dental hygienist.
• Dental x-rays
  With dental x-rays, your dentist will have an insight of the state of your soft tissues, bone, position of the teeth, pulp chamber, abnormalities and other information which cannot be seen during the regular clinical examination.

COSMETIC DENTISTRY

Today, cosmetic dental treatments are not only an option for celebrities since these are not as expensive as they used to be. The treatment is available for everyone’s budget.
