Our team of Ottawa dentists offer a wide range of general dental treatments to keep your teeth and gums healthy and strong. General dentistry encompasses a broad spectrum of procedures which focus on preventing and treating conditions related not only to the teeth, but to the teeth, gums, jaw and facial/neck muscles.
General dentists are an important part of an individual’s regular health care team as good oral health is vital to the maintenance of good overall health. It is recommended that appointments with your dentist be completed at least once per year however, ideally one should visit the dentist every six months; there is a higher chance of detecting dental problems promptly as they arise in people who visit their dentist more frequently. Every individual’s dental needs will differ as they all depend on personal habits and genetics, which is different for everyone.
Our Ottawa dentists and hygienists will customize a treatment plan to fit your needs and you will soon be on your way to a healthier mouth!

Endodontic treatment is used to treat the inside of the tooth when the “pulp”, which contains blood vessels, connective tissue, and nerves, becomes infected or inflamed.
Laser Therapy
Early to moderate stages of periodontal disease can luckily be reversed thanks to the powerful healing effects of laser light therapy.
Oral Hygiene – Teeth Cleanings
Visiting the dental office for routine oral hygiene appointments and checkups is vital to the maintenance of an individual’s oral care as well as his/her general health, too.
Oral Surgery – Tooth Extractions
There are different reasons why pulling permanent teeth is sometimes unavoidable.
Orthodontics
Orthodontics is a branch of dentistry which focuses on the correction of dental and facial irregularities, such as crooked teeth, improper bite, and misaligned jaw joints.
Tooth Colored Fillings – Composite Restorations
The most common way of repairing teeth that have been damaged by the early stages of decay is by having the affected area filled with a composite resin material.
Traditional Bridges
A traditional bridge is one method of replacing an absent or previously extracted tooth. Replacing missing teeth is highly recommended to prevent inevitable tooth and bone problems later in life.
