GENERAL DENTISTRY
At Iqaluit Dental Clinic, our skilled team of dentists provides a wide range of general dentistry services to support the oral health and comfort of our patients. By providing high quality care in a friendly environment, our professional dental team will make your dental experience a pleasant one.
We know that comfort is important. Our dentists and our dental hygienists are very gentle in all procedures and communicate with you throughout your appointment to ensure your comfort.
Preventative Dentistry
The foundation of all good dental health begins with preventative dentistry and diligent home care. Taking care of your teeth at home is the first step to avoiding some of the most common dental conditions such as periodontal (gum) disease and decay. Brushing and flossing is a great first step to staying healthy, protecting your teeth, and remaining pain free.
Your home care is just the beginning. Having regular dental exams and professional dental cleanings helps to avoid major conditions before they start. At your regular dental exam, we look for some of the most common problems while they are small. Addressing problems early can help prevent painful situations and avoid work that is more extensive in the future.
At your dental exams, our dentists will perform a full exam of your teeth, gums, and the inside of your mouth. We also take periodic x-rays to make the diagnosis of decay and bone loss easier and more accurate.
Our hygienists will give you a professional dental cleaning, removing all of the plaque and bacteria from the surfaces of your teeth so you can avoid periodontal disease, one of the most commonly diagnosed conditions in teens and adults.
If you have periodontal disease, our team can help you get back on track. In its early stages, we can potentially reverse periodontal disease and restore your dental health. It is always our goal to treat your condition efficiently and effectively.
Restorative Dentistry
In the event that you need treatment due to a broken, cracked, or decayed tooth, our compassionate dental team can take care of your needs and restore your comfort and function. We can even take certain dental emergencies on the same day.
We offer all general restorative treatments from fillings to crowns and bridges. Our restorations are high quality and long lasting. We offer both functional and attractive treatment because we know our patients like to look and feel great.
After a complete exam, we will share your treatment options with you and help you make a decision that best supports your oral health. Our team will help you get scheduled and make sure you are comfortable for any necessary procedures.
