General Dental Services
• Basic dental examination
In addition to affecting the body, the health of teeth has a great impact on the overall appearance and social self-confidence of the individual.
Therefore, regular check-ups can ensure dental health and prevent dental problems, and can also avoid spending more money and time on treatment.
Dental examination includes:
Thorough inspection of teeth, gums and mouth
Check for oral problems such as tooth decay and gum inflammation
• Professional teeth protection guide
The concept of teeth protection is very important and must be cultivated from childhood to basic habit. Proper tooth protection can help prevent dental diseases and protect dental health.
This clinic attaches great importance to personal dental care. Doctors and medical staff will demonstrate correct teeth brushing techniques and answer the concepts of dental care, so that guests can clearly understand the correct knowledge of dental care, thereby changing habits and making teeth healthier.
• Comprehensive teeth cleaning
Dental plaque, tartar and dental stains accumulate after eating and drinking every day. These tartars cannot be removed with a toothbrush alone. Therefore, they must be cleaned by washing the teeth to help the teeth return to clean and smooth.
Visiting the clinic regularly every six to nine months can help prevent periodontal disease or other dental problems.
>Scaling procedure
Step 1 Use ultrasonic vibration water molecules to hit tartar
Step 2 Use a tartar scraper to quickly remove small tartar
Step 3 Use dental pumice powder to polish the surface of the teeth / Use a special mixture to spray the surface of the teeth at high speed to remove stains and keep the teeth smooth
Step 4 Use fluoride to help strengthen enamel
After washing the teeth, there is a chance that the teeth will feel sore and soft, which is quite normal. Normally, it will return to normal within 2-3 days((for those with sensitive teeth or periodontal disease, it may take a longer time).
• Professional tooth repair
The purpose of repairing teeth is to restore the shape and function of the teeth, prevent continued damage to the tooth tissue and relieve pain.
>Tooth repair materials
-Mercury metal
-Porcelain powder
>Recommendations after fillings;
-Reduce the consumption of aggressive drinks
-Try to avoid chewing hard food after a few days of treatment
• Gum periodontal treatment
Periodontal disease is caused by poor oral hygiene. The dental plaque adhering to the surface of the teeth accumulates on the edge of the gums for a long time. The bacteria in the dental plaque will secrete toxins and stimulate the tissues around the teeth, such as the gums and periodontal membrane. And alveolar bone, etc., cause periodontal disease.
>Gingivitis (minor periodontal disease)
Due to the long-term accumulation of dental plaque on the edge of the gums and adjacent surfaces of the teeth, the bacteria in the dental plaque can secrete toxins to stimulate the gums and cause inflammation of the gums.
When the gums are inflamed, the gums will be red and swollen, the teeth will bleed when brushing, and very rough tartar will accumulate on the surface of the teeth.
>Periodontitis (severe periodontal disease)
如果發炎情況持續，導致形成「牙周袋」讓食物殘渣、牙菌膜和牙石更易堆積，使牙周組織持續受破壞，引致牙周炎。牙齦邊緣會有膿液滲出，甚至長出牙瘡，牙齦 和 牙槽骨慢慢萎縮，以致部分牙根外露如果牙周炎繼續惡化，牙槽骨會萎縮，牙齒失去支撐，變得鬆動和出現移位，最 後甚至脫落。
>Periodontal disease treatment:
-Root scaling
-Periodontal surgery
• Non-surgical tooth extraction
Tooth extraction is to remove teeth that have serious problems or are not suitable for preservation. The general procedure does not require general anesthesia or surgery. If the teeth are crooked or very close to the nerves, there is a chance for surgical extraction.
The General Reasons for Tooth Extraction are:
-The tooth cannot be repaired due to severe decay or chipping
-Suffer from severe periodontal disease, so teeth become very loose
-Teeth grow in undesirable locations, causing damage and infection to nearby tissues
-Problems with the appearance and structure of the teeth
-Meet the needs of orthodontic treatment
>Non-surgical extraction procedures:
Step 1
The doctor will inject local anesthetics
Step 2
Use dental pliers to loosen the teeth and take them out
Step 3
Guests use cotton to help stop bleeding
• Digital dental impression
Advanced 3D impression technology replaces traditional plaster impression taking technology. The entire mold-taking process only takes 5 minutes, which is 50% faster than traditional technology, reducing the number of reprint cases due to errors. Combining the doctor's professional diagnosis and using the exclusive patented computer software (ClinCheck) to simulate the movement of the teeth of the guests, the guests can understand the entire process of the movement of the teeth before the orthodontic treatment starts, so that the effect of the correction can be doubled.
>Advantages of digital oral scan:

Dental Cosmetic Services
• Invisalign invisible braces
The current new orthodontic method, which uses transparent braces on the teeth to straighten the teeth, is generally more suitable for patients with mild to moderate malocclusion.
Before starting the orthodontic treatment, the dentist will carefully analyze the clinical treatment, and use the patented computer program exclusively developed by Invisalign to simulate every detail of your tooth movement during the treatment, and tailor the most suitable one. "Invisible braces."
After correctly following the instructions of the dentist, wearing tailor-made "invisible braces" and replacing them with a new pair of braces at home every two weeks, the teeth will gradually be straightened and tidied.
• Ordinary braces
Irregular arrangement of teeth not only affects the appearance, but also increases the risk of different dental diseases. Therefore, we need to use braces to correct our teeth.
>Disadvantages of malocclusion:
-Cause tooth decay
-Affect eating
-Slur
-Affect the appearance
>Ordinary braces
By being composed of steel wire and bracket, the tension is stronger, and it is generally more suitable for cases of moderate to severe malocclusion. Customers generally need to go to the clinic for adjustment once a month.
Some cases of severe malocclusion may require surgical treatment. Therefore, guests should first go to the clinic for a check by the dentist before choosing a suitable brace.
• All-ceramic Braces/ Bridge
Crown: After a proper amount of remodeling, the tooth is protected by a crown so that it can continue to be used without being removed.
Bridge: After a certain tooth is extracted, the teeth before and after the missing tooth area are repaired, and the missing tooth area is repaired like a bridge.
>People who are suitable for braces:
-Tooth color (affected by tetracycline)
-Poor tooth shape, such as small cones
-Dentition abnormalities are not suitable for orthopedic treatment
-Severe tooth decay or damage caused by trauma and cannot be repaired with traditional dental filling methods
-The tooth defect is large, and the teeth are gray or yellow-brown (to restore the beauty and increase the strength through porcelain teeth)
• Laser teeth whitening
Many people only focus on facial whitening, but ignore the whitening of teeth. White teeth will make you feel confident. On the contrary, a mouthful of yellow teeth will make you look bad.
Laser teeth whitening is to apply dental bleaching materials to the surface of the teeth, and then irradiate them with laser light to quickly restore whiteness to the teeth.
• Home bleaching
To have teeth whitening, in addition to laser whitening, it can also be done at home. The dentist will create a unique dental tray for the client and instruct how to whiten the teeth at home.
Guests of home bleaching need to make a dental mold that fits their mouth shape first, and add the whitening materials to the dental mold, and then bring the dental mold to allow the materials to penetrate the teeth to whiten them.
• Partial/Full mouth tray
Dental trays, also known as movable dentures, can improve the impact of missing teeth.
Dental trays can be divided into two categories: partial trays or full mouth trays. The doctor will use the metal hooks at the bottom of the braces to buckle the adjacent real teeth to stabilize the partial braces. At the same time, the real teeth of the braces can also be used as fixed posts.
In addition, partial dental trays can also be used as a mobile replacement for dental bridges.
>Effects of missing teeth:
-Adjacent teeth will move or fall to the missing tooth area, and the teeth on the bite will overgrow and fall apart, which will affect the occlusal relationship and the aesthetics of the dentition.
-Reduced chewing efficiency, affecting digestion and absorption
-Since food is more likely to be impacted between teeth, it greatly increases the chance of tooth decay and periodontal disease
-The oral situation will change over time and the dental tray will become unfit for wear. Therefore, even if a full mouth tray is made, the wearer needs to have regular follow-up consultations so that
the doctor can adjust or correct the tray according to the patient's condition.
Advanced Dental Treatment Services
• Wisdom tooth removal
There are four wisdom teeth, which are usually longer than the last positions on each side of the upper and lower jaw until adulthood. Some people are born with a lack of wisdom teeth.
Because the jaw bones of modern people are naturally short, there is not enough space to accommodate the growth of wisdom teeth, resulting in lateral, vertical or oblique impaction. Therefore, most people need to remove wisdom teeth.
If the problematic wisdom teeth are not treated as soon as possible, tooth decay and pericoronitis may spread to other healthy teeth and affect the overall dental health.
>Problems caused by wisdom teeth:
The gap between the wisdom tooth and other teeth is difficult to keep clean, and the accumulation of dental plaque will cause tooth decay
After the wisdom tooth is impacted, it will be covered by the gums. Food residue and bacteria can hide between the gums and the crown, causing swelling and inflammation of the gums. In severe cases, it will spread to the entire cheek swelling and will feel pain when eating
Adjacent healthy teeth will be stressed by the impacted wisdom teeth, and in severe cases, the alveolar bone will shrink (ie, pericoronitis) or even loosen
>Procedure of the treatment
Clinical evaluation >> Computer sketch and photography >> Perform anesthesia and detooth surgery >> Take a break and observe the situation >> Make an appointment for the next follow-up consultation
