Treatment
Teeth Whitening
Teeth whitening is a highly sought-after cosmetic dental procedure designed to revitalize and enhance the appearance of your smile. The passage of time, along with habits like consuming coffee, tea, red wine, or using tobacco products, can lead to teeth staining or discoloration. Teeth whitening employs safe and effective bleaching agents to gently remove stains and lighten tooth color, resulting in a vibrant and youthful smile that exudes confidence.
Clear Aligners
Clear aligners are a state-of-the-art orthodontic solution that provides a discreet and effective way to straighten your teeth. These custom-made, transparent trays gradually shift your teeth into alignment without the need for traditional braces. Clear aligners offer a comfortable and virtually invisible option for achieving the smile you’ve always wanted. Suitable for both adults and teenagers, they provide an appealing alternative to metal braces.
Dental Fillings
Dental fillings are a common restorative treatment used to repair teeth that have been damaged by decay, cavities, or fractures. The procedure involves removing the damaged portion of the tooth and filling the resulting space with a durable and biocompatible material. Dental fillings restore the tooth’s strength, functionality, and natural appearance, ensuring that you can continue to eat, speak, and smile confidently.
Wisdom Tooth Removal
Wisdom teeth, also known as third molars, typically emerge in late teens or early twenties. Due to limited space in the mouth, they often grow in misaligned or impacted positions, causing pain, discomfort, and potential oral health issues. Wisdom teeth removal is a common dental procedure that involves the extraction of these molars to prevent complications such as infections, cysts, gum disease, and damage to adjacent teeth.
Dental Implants
Dental implants represent an exceptional leap in modern dentistry, offering an innovative and lasting solution to replace missing teeth. Composed of biocompatible titanium, these artificial tooth roots are surgically embedded into the jawbone, creating a sturdy foundation for replacement teeth. At Mackay Family Dental, our commitment to excellence is showcased through our proficiency in implant dentistry, ensuring not only the restoration of your smile but also the revitalization of your self-assurance.
Root Canal Treatment
Root canal treatment, also known as endodontic therapy, is a dental procedure designed to save a severely damaged or infected tooth. When the innermost part of a tooth, called the pulp, becomes infected or inflamed due to deep decay, trauma, or repeated dental procedures, a root canal is necessary to remove the infected pulp and save the tooth from extraction. The procedure involves cleaning, disinfecting, and sealing the tooth to prevent further infection.
Snoring and Sleep Apnea
Sleep apnoea is a sleep disorder characterized by pauses in breathing during sleep, often accompanied by loud snoring and frequent awakenings. This condition can lead to significant health issues, including daytime fatigue, decreased cognitive function, and an increased risk of cardiovascular problems. Obstructive sleep apnoea (OSA) is the most common form and occurs when the muscles at the back of the throat relax excessively, causing airway obstruction.
Veneers
Dental veneers are ultra-thin, custom-made shells crafted from top-quality dental porcelain. They are meticulously designed to cover the front surface of teeth, effectively revitalizing their appearance and transforming your smile. Veneers are a sought-after cosmetic dentistry solution, addressing various dental concerns such as discoloration, chips, misalignment, and uneven spacing. These versatile enhancements can create a captivating, natural-looking smile that boosts your self-esteem and leaves a lasting impression.
Mouthguards and Splints
Mouthguards are essential dental appliances designed to protect your teeth, jaws, and soft tissues from injury during physical activities or sports. They create a barrier that absorbs and disperses the impact forces, preventing traumatic dental injuries and reducing the risk of concussion. Whether you’re engaged in contact sports or recreational activities, a custom-fitted mouthguard offers optimal protection for your oral health.
