Detailed consultation
What it is
A focused conversation and dental assessment to understand your concerns and review your teeth and gums.
What to expect
- Share your symptoms, health history and goals with the dentist.
- The dentist examines your mouth and may recommend an X-ray if it would help with diagnosis.
- Discuss the findings, suitable options, and next steps before deciding on care.
Painless cleaning
What it is
A professional cleaning removes plaque and hardened deposits that brushing may not reach. Comfort and sensitivity vary from person to person.
What to expect

- They clean away deposits with dental instruments; polishing may be included where appropriate.

Cosmetic dentistry
What it is
Options such as professional whitening and veneers can change the appearance of tooth colour or shape.
What to expect
- The dentist checks your oral health, discusses your goals and explains which options may suit you.
- Whitening may be provided in the clinic or with dentist-guided products for home use.
- For veneers, the dentist plans the shape and shade, prepares the tooth if needed, and fits a custom-made covering. Veneer treatment can involve permanent enamel changes, so discuss benefits and limitations before proceeding.
Aligners & orthodontics
What it is
Orthodontic care addresses tooth alignment and bite concerns. Clear aligners are removable trays; braces are another option for some cases.
What to expect
- An orthodontic assessment reviews your teeth, bite and treatment goals; records or scans may be taken.

- If aligners are selected, you receive a series of custom trays and instructions for wear, cleaning and follow-up checks.

A treatment to remove inflamed or infected tissue from inside a tooth, then clean, fill and seal the space to help retain the natural tooth.
What to expect
- The dentist examines the tooth and may take an X-ray to assess the problem.
- The area is numbed; the dentist accesses the inner part of the tooth, removes affected tissue, and cleans the canals.
- The canals are filled and sealed. A restoration such as a crown may be recommended to protect the tooth.
Pediatric dentistry
What it is
Dental care for children, including checks for tooth development, cavities and gum health, plus advice on prevention.
What to expect
- The dentist talks with the child and caregiver about health history and any concerns.
- They examine the child's teeth and gums; cleaning or X-rays are considered based on age and need.
- The dentist explains findings and any recommended care in a way suited to the child, then discusses home care with the caregiver.

Oral surgery includes procedures such as removing a tooth that is impacted, badly damaged or cannot be treated another way.
What to expect
- The dentist assesses the tooth and surrounding area, sometimes using dental imaging.
- They explain the procedure and numbing options. If removal is needed, the tooth is carefully taken out.
