- Dental ExaminationFrom the front Desk (Jlin!), the dental hygentist (Jen), and Dr. Galang the experience was amazing. Dr. Galang does your first exam and cleaning so he can be as familiar and thorough with your teeth and make notes. They have high tech stuff with pictures, you can see your issues (if there are any) so they’re not making anything up! Also, text reminders to confirm your appointment which is a bonus for me.
- X-rays
- Teeth CleaningThe journey to combating gum disease begins with a regular dental cleaning, followed by procedures like scaling and root planing. This special cleaning technique removes plaque and tartar from beneath the gumline and smooths the roots to promote healing. With timely scaling and root planing, followed by consistent oral care, most cases of gum disease can be resolved.
- Fluoride Treatment1) Full Exam – This appointment includes a thorough examination of the mouth and its surrounding structures, taking the necessary x-rays (full mouth x-rays) to aid in the exam, teeth cleaning ( if due ) and fluoride treatment. By the end of this visit, we will have a treatment plan presented to you. We also try to explain and answer your questions as much as we can. This usually requires 1-1.5 hour visit.
- Dental Sealants
- Fillings
- Resin CompositeFillings – Dental fillings are used to fill cavities and repair cracked or broken teeth. Fillings can be done with gold, porcelain, or silver amalgam, but is most commonly done with materials called composite resin fillings that are designed to match the color of your teeth. Additional steps are required for tooth-colored fillings because it requires multiple layers and a special light to dry and harden the area around the filling.
- VeneersVeneers – Veneers are thin shells intended to cover the front side of teeth to hide stains, chips, decay, or irregularities. A dental technician uses a model created by a dentist to make a custom shell out of specials materials. Because veneers require removing some enamel, they are usually permanent. Your dentist will typically recommend avoiding food and drink that will stain your veneers. Veneers can chip or crack, but overall the results are worthwhile and many people are thrilled with their new smile.
- CrownsI’d been going to the same dentist for 19 years (since birth, I think) until I was recently referred to Dr. Galang’s office for a crown replacement that my usual dentist’s office wasn’t equipped to perform. It’s a good thing I switched as soon as I did, because it turns out I have very problematic teeth. In addition to a ton of decay beneath the poorly fitted crown, I had four cavities and lots of staining that my previous dentist had never mentioned. I was kind of shocked that my teeth were in such bad shape– my previous dentist had consistently told me that they were fine.
- BridgesBridges – Bridges can solve the issue of missing teeth. Similar to dentures, bridges replace gaps in your smile with artificial teeth. Bridges can be made from a variety of materials including porcelain, gold, and alloys. Bridges can be removable or fixed. Removable bridges can be taken out and cleaned by patients, whereas fixed bridges have to be removed by a dentist. Bridges can be implanted to the jaw or under the gums. With so many options, it is important to consult with your dentist about which type of bridge is best for you.
