What is tooth extraction?

Tooth extraction is a dental procedure during which your tooth is completely removed from its socket. Sometimes, people refer to this as “pulling" a tooth. A tooth extraction may be necessary for many reasons, including severe damage or decay. A prosthetic root is used to support a restoration that appears above the gum line, stimulating the bone and increasing blood flow. This keeps the area strong & healthy.

Orthodontic Treatment (Braces)
Braces for the perfect teeth

A wire is passed through and adjusted during scheduled appointment to gradually align the teeth to the desired position. Clear aligners as the name suggest are transparent/clear braces. If you’re not keen on visible metal braces, this may be for you. It helps to straighten teeth with added flexibility as it is removable. During orthodontist consultations the different teeth straightening options are explained and a recommendation is made based on your peculiarities.

Sealants & Fluoride Therapy
Protect and strengthen tooth enamel and shield molars from cavities and decay.

Fluoride helps prevent tooth decay by making the tooth more resistant to acid attack from plaque, bacteria and sugars in the mouth. It also helps prevent early decay. It is incorporated in children under 6 years of age routine dental treatment to make it difficult for acids to demineralize the teeth. Sealants are cost effective and help in preventing tooth decay particularly in children. A Dental sealant is a thin plastic coating that is applied to the grooves on the chewing surface of the back teeth where most cavities occur. Fluoride treatments are used on a patient when the dentist feels that a child or adult has a fluoride deficiency. Sealants & Fluoride treatment is essential, especially in children who are still navigating how to properly floss and brush their teeth.

Tooth Replacement

A missing tooth/teeth can be a great source of worry or discomfort. It may affect a person’s confidence in certain cases. Thankfully, there are a number of options that can be employed to replace a missing tooth. At Akcess Dental, we’ll recommend the best option for you after an assessment and based on your peculiarities.

DENTAL CROWNS: A dental crown is a tooth shaped cap that is placed over a tooth, to cover the tooth and to restore its shape, size, strength and improve its appearance. It is used particularly;

  • To protect a weak tooth from breaking or to hold together pieces of a cracked tooth.
  • To restore an already broken tooth or a tooth that has been severely worn down.
  • To hold a Dental bridge in place
  • To cover an implant among others

What are Veneers?
Protect and strengthen tooth enamel and shield molars from cavities and decay.

Dental veneers are thin, tooth-colored shells that are attached to the front surface of teeth to improve their appearance. They’re often made from porcelain or resin-composite materials and are permanently bonded to your teeth. Veneers can be used to treat a number of different cosmetic concerns, including chipped, broken, discolored, or smaller-than-average teeth.

Porcelain veneers:

They’re composed of feldspar, a naturally occurring glass ceramic.They’re resilient and do not stain, chip or discolor easily, thus have a longer life span. An impression of your teeth would be taken and sent to the lab for the veneers to be made. This would require 2 visits.

Composite veneers:

They’re made from a composite resin material. They’re applied directly to the teeth and sculpted to the desired shape and size. They’re less expensive than porcelain veneers and can be done in one visit.
