Preventative Treatment
Understanding Dental Hygiene Therapy: Key to Your Overall Health
Dental hygiene therapy, often known as dental cleaning, is a vital component of your comprehensive health and preventive care plan. Regular dental cleanings are essential for monitoring and controlling the effects of oral diseases on your general well-being. Oral diseases typically manifest as gum inflammation and bleeding, though they seldom cause pain. In its early stages, this condition is called gingivitis, but if left untreated, it can develop into periodontal disease.
Periodontal disease is particularly concerning because it increases the risk of systemic conditions such as heart disease. This underscores the importance of early and effective management of gum health. The frequency of your dental hygiene therapy sessions will depend on your oral health status. Those with more advanced periodontal disease may need more frequent cleanings to maintain optimal oral and overall health. Your hygienist will tailor your routine to fit your individual needs.
Dental Exams & Radiographs
The Importance of Regular Dental Examinations
Regular dental examinations, or checkups, are essential for identifying and diagnosing dental issues early. These examinations, often combined with x-rays, photographs, and other oral tests, help detect conditions such as cavities, gum disease, and oral cancer. Your hygienist will also use your x-rays to diagnose and treat your periodontal condition.
At Westlock Dental Centre, we strive to create a safe and comfortable environment for our patients. Our goal is for you to feel welcomed and confident, knowing you are in the experienced and caring hands of our dedicated dental team.
Night Guards & Sports Guards
Protecting your teeth from damage is crucial, whether you are sleeping or active in sports. Night guards are designed to prevent teeth grinding and clenching during sleep, which can lead to dental issues such as worn enamel and jaw pain. Sports guards, on the other hand, provide essential protection during physical activities, reducing the risk of dental injuries. At Westlock Dental Centre, we custom-fit night guards and sports guards to ensure maximum comfort and effectiveness.
Digital Scanning & Diagnostics
Advances in dental technology have revolutionized the way we diagnose and treat oral health issues. Digital scanning and diagnostics enable us to obtain highly detailed images of your teeth and gums, facilitating accurate and early detection of problems such as cavities, gum disease, and other dental concerns. This technology ensures that your treatment plan is based on precise and comprehensive information, enhancing the quality of care you receive at Westlock Dental Centre.
Orthodontics
Orthodontic treatment is not just about improving the appearance of your smile; it's also about enhancing your overall oral health. By correcting misaligned teeth and bite issues, orthodontics can prevent problems such as tooth decay, gum disease, and jaw pain. At Westlock Dental Centre, we offer clear aligner therapy tailored to meet your individual needs, helping you achieve a healthier, more confident smile.
General & Cosmetic Dentistry
At Westlock Dental Centre, we provide a comprehensive range of general and cosmetic dentistry services to maintain and enhance your oral health and appearance. General dentistry focuses on prevention and treatment of common dental issues, ensuring your teeth and gums stay healthy. Cosmetic dentistry, on the other hand, aims to improve the aesthetics of your smile through procedures such as implants, veneers, crowns, and bonding. If you have specific cosmetic goals, our dentists can leverage digital technology to create the smile of your dreams that is custom fit to you as an individual. Our experienced team is dedicated to delivering personalized care that meets your unique needs and goals.
Teeth Whitening
A bright, white smile can significantly boost your confidence and overall appearance.
