check up and clean
Good oral health can be maintained with your willingness to brush and floss regularly and your commitment to seeing your dentist every six months for an oral exam and professional teeth cleaning.
During routine check up, dentist will look for any abnormality such as incorrect brushing habit, oral cancer, gum disease, cavities, wobbly teeth. Dentist may take Panoramic X-ray or small X-ray depends on individual's needs.
The accumulation of plaque and tartar around the teeth and under the gums can cause dental problems like tooth decay, swelling of gum, bone loss around roots, bad breath and wobbly tooth.
Scale and Clean will remove tartar build up around tooth including under the gum as well as staining from coffee, tea, tar from smoking.
Different type of flouride will be applied to your teeth straight after Scale and clean for extra protection .
restoration (Filling)
Dental fillings replace parts of a tooth that has been damaged due to injury or decay. A filling preserves the integrity of the tooth and prevents further damage from cavities, furthermore restore the chewing surfaces of teeth that have damaged from decay.
Fillings are a good way to preserve your natural teeth and most cavities and fractures that are caught early are good candidates for restoration with fillings.
Not all dental decay will cause problem such as pain, however, longer you kept damaged tooth bigger the cavity it will become and possible nerve involvement which may require more complex treatment in order to save your tooth.
At SMILEE Dental, We do not use Amalgam (Metal Filling) to do restorations.

We understand that losing your tooth is heart-breaking and nervous. however, if the tooth is severely broken down, wobbly due to gum disease or severely infected, we choose to extract tooth as ourcome of the treatment is very poor.
