DENTAL CLEANINGS
At Dr. Karim Dentistry, we’ll assess the quality of your teeth after a thorough cleaning and polishing, and advise you if any fillings or crowns are needed. You can rely on us for all kinds of preventive measures to ensure that your teeth continue to remain healthy. In addition to cleaning and polishing, we also remove calculus and plaque.
DIGITAL X-RAYS
We use the most comprehensive and latest dental X-ray technology, known as digital imaging, to evaluate the health of your teeth and gums. With this cutting-edge technology, we make your dental experience more comfortable and convenient. It stores the digital images of your teeth and reduces your exposure to radiation significantly. You can view your X-rays on big screens right from your dental chair.
DENTAL EXAMINATIONS
Regular dental examinations are important for maintaining oral hygiene and health. Dr. Karim will conduct thorough oral examinations to make sure you do not suffer from infections or inflammations that might cause severe pain. These examinations include oral cancer screening, evaluation of gum disease, and tooth decay.
TREATMENT OF GUM DISEASE
Gum disease can cause teeth loss, bone damage and inflammation due to bacteria. Generally, non-surgical treatments are administered to treat various gum diseases but in some cases, we may recommend periodontal surgery. The other procedures that we recommend are pocket reduction, soft tissue grafts, bone regeneration and dental implants. If your needs exceed what can be done at our general dentistry practice, we will refer you to one of our experienced dental specialists in the area.
