Our services

Dental implants are cutting-edge dental devices that function as artificial roots, furnishing a robust and resilient foundation for replacement teeth. They are considered a highly effective and long-lasting solution for individuals who have lost one or more natural teeth.

At 15 dental, our team of experienced and highly trained dental professionals specialise in dental implant procedures. We have a rate of successful outcomes with an aesthetics results for our patients.

Endosteal implants, which are the most frequently employed, are inserted directly into the jawbone, offering a solid foundation for an artificial tooth or multiple teeth. After the surrounding tissue has adequately healed, a secondary procedure is undertaken to link a crown to the initial implant usually via a small screw.

The suitability for dental implants depends on various factors, including the patient's overall health, the general conditions of their gums, and the amount of available bone. Generally, individuals maintaining good general health and with good oral health are considered excellent candidates for dental implants.

However, certain conditions necessitate individual assessment- heavy smokers, individuals grappling with uncontrolled chronic disorders like diabetes, or patients who have undergone radiation therapy in the head or neck area.

Invisalign : The Clear Alternative to Braces 

Invisalign : the clear alternative to traditional braces. Using a series of custom-made clear aligners, Invisalign gradually and gently moves your teeth into the desired position. These aligners are virtually invisible and can be removed for eating, drinking, brushing  and flossing, making them a highly convenient choice for many patients. Every weeks, you graduate to a new set of aligners, each one nudging your teeth closer to that perfect alignment.

Retainers

Retainers are custom-made devices typically used after orthodontic treatment to hold teeth in their new position. They're crucial in maintaining the results achieved through treatment are long-lasting. Our team guides patients on proper retainer care and use, ensuring oral health  and a  beautiful smile.

Who can benefit from orthodontic treatment ? 

Orthodontic treatments can benefit anyone with crooked, crowded, or misaligned teeth, as well as those  with bite issues. These treatments are not only for children and teenagers. In fact, an increasing number of adults are seeking orthodontic treatments to improve their smiles and oral health. Whether you want to enhance your smile's aesthetics or address functional issues like difficulties in chewing or speaking, orthodontic treatments can provide significant benefits.

What to expect During Your Orthodontic Treatment

Orthodontic treatment involves several stages, including consultation, treatment planning, the active phase of treatment, and finally, retention. During your initial consultation at 15 dental we will evaluate your oral health, discuss your goals, and determine the best treatment for your needs. Throughout your treatment, you'll have regular check-ups and cleaning to ensure your teeth and gums are healthy.

Wisdom teeth often emerge late and may not have enough space in the mouth. This can lead to misalignment, partial eruption, or impaction within the jaw. Extraction is often recommended to relieve discomfort and prevent complications.

An impacted wisdom tooth remain partially or fully covered by the gums or jaw bone due to crowding in the mouth. This can cause pain, infection and damage to neighbouring teeth. Extracting impacted wisdom teeth is a common procedure to alleviate symptoms and prevent further issues.

Perhaps it's been a few years since your last cleaning and your gums are really sore. You're bleeding a lot while brushing  and flossing, and maybe you've even noticed your teeth shifting. It might be time you're evaluated for a deep cleaning or what we call a scaling and root planing.

Deep cleanings can help alleviate many dental health problems by removing soft or hardened plaque from under the gum line, facilitating the healing of gums, and preventing tooth and bone loss and the spread of gum disease. After a full examination, accompanied by a full set of dental x-rays and full mouth pocket depth assessment, you will be scheduled to start your gum treatment( quadrant scaling and root planing). We normally suggest to split the procedure up into either two or four appointments, but you an your dentist or oral health therapist can discuss the pros and cons or your specific case.After full local anaesthesia is achieved, a combination of ultrasonic instruments and hand scalers will be sued to gently, yet efficiently rid your teeth of this harmful buildup.

Crowns are full-coverage restorations that are used to cover a tooth that is likely to break or is too damaged to be corrected with a traditional filling.

Crowns are placed over your weakened or decayed tooth after they are reduced in size, to allow the crown to fit over the tooth like a thimble.

Although there are aesthetic benefits to this treatment, the main reason for placing crowns is to strengthen damaged teeth so they can withstand the large forces we exert on them when we eat, and thanks to the latest developments, porcelain crowns can now blend in seamlessly with your other teeth.

A bridge is another excellent way to replace a missing tooth. The teethon either side of the missing tooth are crowned and a false tooth is attached between them to replace the missing tooth. 

Both crowns and bridges are extremely durable and requireo ny the same care as your own teeth.
