Regular dental visits are important for maintaining good oral health. Common
conditions such as dental decay and gum disease can occur over time if teeth are
left unattended. Many dental problems can be prevented with early detection.
Hence, regular dental checks twice yearly are recommended.

and diabetes. Regular scaling and polishing removes plaque and tartar
build up for better overall oral hygiene.

Temporo-Mandibular Joint (TMJ) Disorders
TMJ disorders may be characterised by pain or "clicking" sounds in the
joint area or restriction in mouth-opening. A common cause is habitual
clenching or grinding of teeth. Other causes may be arthritis or trauma
to the joint. TMJ disorders can be successfully managed through careful
and thorough examination of the underlying cause. Suggested treatments
include the prescription of pain medication or the use of a bite-guard.
This bite-guard is customised and fabricated for the specific aim of
alleviating the symptoms and to protect the teeth from excessive wear
and damage. Our prosthodontist is specially trained to assess your
condition and will prescribe the most appropriate treatment.
