When a tooth is severely damaged or infected, a gentle extraction is often a good way to stop the pain. We put your comfort first, and can discuss replacement options (implants, dentures) once you have healed. Some of what we provide:

​

• Severely decayed and/or fractured teeth

• Most impacted wisdom teeth

• Infections/abscesses

Whether it's from a puck to the face or biting on something too hard, a broken tooth can be alarming. We use tooth coloured materials to restore the look and shape of your tooth, often in a single visit. We can repair:

​

• Jagged or sharp edges

• Cosmetic bonding on front teeth

• Breaks from accidents (sports, work, etc)

Don't lose a tooth if you don't have to. If the nerve inside your tooth is infected, a root canal removes the infection while keeping your tooth intact. It is usually no more uncomfortable than a standard filling. Signs you may need one:

 

• Deep, throbbing toothache

• Extreme sensitivity to hot and cold (e.g. even when breathing cold air)

• Swelling of the gums, or a "pimple" shows on the gums beside a tooth

If a restoration falls out, your exposed tooth can be very sensitive and prone to damage. Do not try to superglue it back in. If it's a crown, keep it safe and bring it with you - we may be able to recement it! What to do:

​

• Keep the area clean

• Avoid chewing on that side

• Call us as soon as you can so we can seal the tooth.
