Teeth cleaning / Scale and Polish
Teeth cleaning by a dentist is a procedure that remove tartar , calculus and stain from the teeth. Professional cleaning is done in two stages - scaling which removes the hard stains, and polishing if too much tartar has accumulated. It is often recommended to have your teeth cleaned at least once a year.
In our Practice we use Prophyjet method which uses a mixture of Sodium Bicarbonate (baking soda) powder and water to provide perfect cleaning of all surfaces of teeth and inside pockets with minimal irritation.
Filling
Dental filling is a dental restorative method used to restore the tooth's function and structure by replacing lost part of hard tissue by filling material. In our Practice, we use highly aesthetic, new generation composite resins as filling materials.
Root Canal Treatment (or Root filling)
Root Canal Treatment is a procedure to repair and save a tooth that has been severaly damaged and decayed, and its soft tissues (Pulp) were infected, which causes pain or in some cases, abscess. It is often the last option to save the tooth.
Cosmetic Dentistry

SixMonthSmiles cosmetic braces
SMS cosmetic braces are highly effective devices to improve appearance for patients with crooked/misplaced teeth or with large gaps (diasthemas) between their teeth. We use clear brackets and tooth coloured wires so braces are barely visible. Usual treatment time is 6-8 months.
Crown
crown is a type of dental restoration which completely "caps" or covers a tooth or dental implant. Crowns are often needed when a big part of tooth is damaged due to large cavity and/or heavy injury or to improve appearance in case of strongly discolorated or mishaped teeth.
Bridge
Bridges are permanent devices to replace missing tooth/teeth. They are supported usually by crowns fitted on existing teeth, and are the most popular permanent teeth replacement. In our Practice we provide metal-ceramic bridges (PMF- Porcelain Fuset to Metal) and high aesthetic, full ceramic Zirconia bridges.
Surgical Dentistry
Surgical dentistry involves a series of surgical procedures in the area of the entire oral cavity. Most common oral surgery procedures are extraction and implant placements.
Extraction
Extraction is the removal of a tooth from the mouth. This procedure is provided when there is massive damage of the tooth's hard tissue in which any restoration is not possible.
Implants
Dental implants are medical devices surgically implanted into the jaw to provide support for artificial or fake teeth to replace missing tooth/teeth. restore a person's ability to chew or their appearance. They provide support for artificial (fake) teeth, such as crowns, bridges, or dentures.
Dental implants look and function just like your natural teeth; and with proper care and attention ,can last for several years.
