Tooth Extraction
Tooth extractions are recommended when a tooth is too damaged or decayed to be saved. Other common reasons include overcrowding, impacted teeth, or preparing your mouth for orthodontic treatment. Rest assured, our dentists will always explore alternative treatments first and recommend an extraction only when it’s the best option for your health and comfort.
Sleep Apnea Treatment
A custom dental appliance is designed to gently reposition your jaw and tongue during sleep, keeping your airway open and reducing interruptions to your breathing. This non-invasive treatment is ideal for patients with mild to moderate obstructive sleep apnea or those seeking a more comfortable solution compared to CPAP therapy.
TMJ Treatment
A bite splint is a custom-made oral appliance designed to reduce the stress on your jaw joints and muscles. Worn over your teeth, the splint helps align your jaw and prevents grinding or clenching that can exacerbate TMJ symptoms. By providing a stable and balanced bite, the splint allows your jaw to relax and heal, offering long-term relief from pain and discomfort.
Laughing Gas
Laughing gas is a mild sedative inhaled through a mask placed over your nose. It helps you feel calm and relaxed while remaining awake and aware during your treatment. The effects of laughing gas wear off quickly, so you can return to your daily activities shortly after your appointment.
