Helping patients achieve healthy and beautiful smiles is one of our greatest passions at Dental & Dentures on 88 Beach. From routine check-ups to enhancements for your pearly whites, we offer both general and cosmetic dentistry, ensuring that every aspect of your oral health is covered. Although these areas of dentistry may overlap, they each bring a unique focus to how we care for your teeth.

The Importance of General Dentistry

General dentists are the primary care providers for your oral health. They concentrate on preventative care and maintenance, diagnosing and addressing dental issues, and basic restorative procedures. They’re your first defence against common dental problems and play a crucial role in maintaining oral health.

We offer various dental services, including regular check-ups and cleanings, fillings and cavity prevention, gum care, root canals, and basic orthodontic assessments. These services form the foundation of good oral health and are essential for people of all ages.

Cosmetic Care for Brighter Smiles

On the other hand, cosmetic dentists emphasise enhancing your smile’s appearance. Their focus includes improving tooth colour, shape, and alignment, and addressing aesthetic concerns. They combine artistry with dental science to create visually appealing results.

Services may include teeth whitening, veneers, dental bonding, inlays and onlays, and advanced orthodontic options like Invisalign®. These procedures are designed to enhance the visual aspects of your teeth and overall smile.

A Different Approach to Your Oral Care

General dentistry takes a holistic approach to oral health, considering your overall wellbeing and dental history. It focuses on maintaining healthy teeth and gums, preventing dental issues, and addressing problems as they arise to ensure your mouth functions properly and remains disease-free.

Cosmetic dentistry considers facial symmetry, tooth proportion, and smile aesthetics when planning care. The goal is to create a harmonious, attractive smile that complements your features while ensuring the health of your teeth and gums isn’t compromised.

Choosing the Right Dentist for You

Our practice believes in providing comprehensive dental care. Because our experienced dental professionals are skilled in general and cosmetic dentistry, they can address all your oral health needs under one roof, considering your primary concerns.
