If you have a single tooth missing and you’re looking for a more permanent solution, a single dental implant may be the answer for you. The implant replaces the lost or missing tooth and it’s root, with an implant and dental crown fitted over the top.
Worn Teeth (Attrition)
Worn teeth is nothing to be ashamed of and is something that can be easily treated with cosmetic dentistry. Having worn teeth can effect your oral health and effect your confidence.
Teeth Removal (Extractions)
When it comes to dental procedures, tooth extraction — or having teeth “pulled” — is among patients’ most dreaded prospects. Also referred to as exodontia, tooth extraction involves removing a tooth from its socket in the jaw bone.
Sensitivity
Sensitivity to hot and cold occurs when the enamel or cementum on your teeth wear away. This exposes the dentin, a layer of protection on your teeth.
Invisalign (Invisible) Aligners
Invisalign® is a great way to achieve a straight beautiful smile without the hassle of braces. A clear, thin customised aligner is used to gently move your teeth into the most desired position.
Missing Teeth
Having teeth that are missing is nothing to be embarrassed about. At Thirroul Dental Studio we can give you the best treatment plan to transform your smile.
Discolouration
Drinking coffee, tea, soft drink, red wine and smoking can all discolour your teeth. This causes obvious physical changes in colour to the teeth but also causes undue strain and stress to your teeth.
Gum Grafting
A gum grafting procedure can take place if your gums exceed more than about 5 millimetres in depth. Gum grafting helps prevent periodontal disease or restore gum tissue to a healthy natural state.
Teeth Grinding (Bruxism) and Clenching
Bruxism is the clenching or grinding of your teeth, often while you sleep. When clenching you tightly clamp your top and bottom teeth together, often the back teeth. Cleanching places pressure on your muscles and tissue.
Old Fillings
Old coloured fillings should be checked to see if there are any signs of leaking or fracture. If left un-repaired they can fracture your teeth and leak, causing decay to the remaining parts of the tooth.
Gingivitis
Gingivitis is a gum disease which causes inflammation of the gums. It is the early stages of periodontal disease and should be treated early on before it advanced in to Periodontitis. Red, swollen gums and bleeding gums are a sign you may have gingivitis.
Root Canal Therapy (Endodontic)
If you have a damaged tooth, root canal treatment may help to save it. Inside your tooth is soft tissue containing nerves, and blood and lymph vessels, known as the tooth pulp that runs through the centre of a tooth.
