Airflow Cleaning

Airflow cleaning uses a jet of water, air, and fine powder to remove surface stains. It can reach areas that are difficult to access with routine brushing, leaving teeth cleaner and brighter.

Clear retainer

Clear retainers maintain teeth positions after orthodontic treatment. The removable, transparent tray fits over your teeth. The appliance helps keep teeth in their corrected positions over time.

Teeth Whitening
Teeth Whitening

Our signature teeth whitening involves applying a bleaching gel that targets surface stains, safely and effectively brightening your smile.

Dental filling
Dental Fillings

Composite fillings are used to treat teeth affected by decay or trauma. The material is matched to tooth colour and bonds directly to the enamel. The procedure re-establishes the tooth’s form and function.

teeth scaling
Scaling and Polishing

Scaling removes plaque and hardened tartar from teeth and gums, while polishing smooths the enamel to help prevent buildup. It is recommended to get scaling and polishing every 6 months.

Regular-Dental-Checkups
General Checkup

General checkup looks for signs of decay, gum disease, and oral cancer. We review your dental history, and X-rays are taken if required. The appointment ends with care advice based on the clinical findings.
