Endodontics
The pulp of your tooth contains important nerves, tissues, and blood vessels. Endodontics is a specific area of dentistry focusing on the pulp. Endodontists treat conditions regarding the pulp. An infected or weakened pulp can lead to the need for root canal therapy, which aims to save your tooth.
Oral and Maxillofacial
Oral and maxillofacial surgeons treat diseases and can fix different defects. Individuals who have problems with their jawbones and tissues of their maxillofacial area (lower face) may have to see a maxillofacial surgeon. They can also treat problems on the roof of your mouth. Maxillofacial surgery can help relieve pain.
Oral Surgery
Oral surgeons work on surgical procedures regarding the mouth and jaw. Oral surgery can mean tooth removal, surgery on the gums, or receiving implants. Oral surgery usually requires local anaesthetics, but only some need general anaesthetics. General anaesthetics will put a patient under for the procedure.
Prosthodontics
Prosthodontists are concerned with reconstruction of the teeth and maxillofacial tissues. Their main focus is on the prevention, diagnosis, and treatment of injuries, conditions, and diseases that affect the oral cavity and the surrounding area. Our prosthodontist will assess the condition of your oral health and create a comprehensive treatment plan based on your specific needs. This may include any of the following procedures:
- Fillings
- Dental Crowns
- Dentures
- Dental Implants
- Dental Bridges
- Dental Bonding
Pediatrics
One of the main challenges of caring for the oral health of children is managing anxiety and completing procedures on restless children. Our Pediatric dentists train in special oral care techniques for children, including behavioural management, sedation dentistry, and general anesthesia.
Pediatric dentists in Canada must also have a broad knowledge of treatments for dental diseases, dysfunctions, and abnormalities, including pulp therapy, oro-facial trauma, and restorative dentistry.
