“Just rip ‘em out doc!” a heartbreaking phrase we Dentists hear all too frequently. Ever wondered why it saddens us so much to have to pull a tooth out? Or why we try everything we can to persuade you to keep your teeth? 

Most people have experienced or at least witnessed someone experiencing severe dental pain that cannot be easily settled sometimes even with pain killers. There are two probable sources for this pain: dental pulp or periodontium (dental supporting structures that keep teeth in place). 

If you want a beautiful bright smile for a special upcoming event such as your formal, birthday or job interview, professional tooth whitening is an effective, simple and affordable option. Natural looking bright, white teeth can significantly improve your smile, boost your confidence and enhance your self-esteem

Periodontal Disease or Gum Disease is a common condition affecting about 47% of the population and has been present for millennia. Early humans also suffered from this debilitating condition.
