12 Common Dental Services You Should Know

Maintaining your oral health is essential for your overall well-being, and regular visits to the dentist are required. Ace Family Dental is dedicated to providing comprehensive
dental care that meets all of your needs. Here is a list of 12 popular dental services that can help you achieve and keep a healthy smile.

1. Dental Bonding

Dental bonding is a quick and effective procedure used to correct imperfections in your teeth. It is ideal for addressing chipped, decayed or cracked teeth. This process
involves applying a tooth-colored resin to the teeth and hardening it with a special light to bond the material securely. The result? An enhanced, natural-looking smile.

2. Dental Crowns

A dental crown is a dental prosthesis that duplicates a tooth crown. A dental crown serves to support a tooth, help regain its natural shape and/or improve aesthetics. Dental crowns are also used as a base to support a dental bridge and to cover an implant site.

3. Bridgework

A dental bridge is a device that connects two dental crowns to cover the space between missing teeth. A bridge can be supported by either your teeth, implants or a combination of the two. A dental bridge can help you restore your smile, improve your appearance and look years younger. Who doesn’t want to look better and younger?

4. Cosmetic Fillings

Cosmetic fillings, or tooth-colored fillings, are composed of composite resin and glass particles. They are glued to the existing teeth with a bonding agent. Cosmetic fillings can help improve the appearance of your smile. Cosmetic fillings, as opposed to silver-colored fillings, blend in with your natural teeth.

5. Invisalign® Clear Aligners

Crooked smile? Invisalign treatment is the most effective approach to straightening your smile without interfering with your daily life. Invisalign adjusts your teeth gradually through a set of custom-fitted, removable aligners. Invisalign aligners are practically undetectable and extremely comfortable to use.

6. Dental Veneers

Many people are finding the advantages of veneers. Veneers are thin covers that are placed on the front of the teeth. Veneers are applied to teeth that are crooked, poorly formed or excessively stained. They can also be used to brighten yellow or grayish teeth.

7. Teeth Cleanings

You should go to the dentist every six months for teeth cleanings. Tartar is a hard layer of plaque that accumulates on the teeth. Tartar occurs both below and above the gum line. The only approach to remove tartar is to visit a dentist for a professional cleaning. Regular dental cleanings are essential for preserving healthy teeth and gums.

8. Dentures

Have you lost many or all of your teeth? Dentures are accessible appliances used to replace lost teeth. When a patient’s teeth are all lost, he or she is fitted with a complete denture. A partial denture is used when only a portion of the teeth are missing. Today’s dentures are more natural-looking and comfortable than ever.

9. Root Canal Therapy

Root canal therapy is a procedure used to save infected or severely damaged teeth. By removing the infected pulp and sealing the tooth, this treatment eliminates pain and prevents the need for extraction. Modern techniques ensure that root canals are as comfortable as getting a regular filling.

10. Dental Sealants

Sealants are plastic coatings that are put on the chewing surfaces of back teeth to prevent tooth decay. Sealants are applied as a liquid and harden to form a shield around the teeth. Sealants will save you money in the long term since they will prevent you from needing dental fillings, crowns and other treatments.

11. Teeth Whitening

Want to have a whiter smile? There are two major possibilities for bleaching: at home and in the office. At-home teeth whitening uses custom-made dental trays packed with hydrogen peroxide gel that you can apply at home. In-office bleaching involves combining hydrogen peroxide gel with a light source to accelerate the whitening process.

12. Tooth Extractions

A tooth extraction, often known as a dental extraction, involves removing a tooth from its socket in the bone. There are several reasons why tooth extraction may be necessary. If your tooth is so badly injured that a dental restoration cannot save it, you may need an extraction. In some circumstances, dentists remove teeth to prepare the patient’s mouth for orthodontic therapy.
