Treatments
Root canals, gums, implants and everyday care
Choose what brings you here. A dentist examines you first and explains each option before treatment begins.
Repeat root canal treatment
For Pain that returned after an earlier root canal, or a canal that is hard to reach.
A conservative dentistry specialist checks the inflammation, the root and the cause of the pain. A special ultrasonic tip is used to find narrow canals and remove posts.
Root-end surgery
For A front tooth with infection at the tip of the root.
The infected root tip is removed through a small incision in the gum and filled with MTA, so the tooth can often be kept.
Tooth replantation
For A molar with infection that a root-end surgery cannot reach.
The tooth is taken out, cleaned outside the mouth and put back within a short time. It is for selected cases, which the dentist decides after examination.
Scaling
For Tartar, plaque and early gum problems.
Removes tartar above the gum line and between the teeth.
Deep cleaning of gum pockets
For Gum disease with inflammation under the gum.
Removes inflammation and tartar under the gum to calm the gum lesion.
Gum flap treatment
For Advanced gum disease close to the root.
Reaches deeper inflammation and tartar near the tooth root. The dentist explains whether it is needed.
Implants planned with 3D CT
For Missing teeth, or teeth that cannot be saved.
A digital 3D CT shows the bone, nerves, vessels and neighbouring roots, so position, angle and depth are chosen before surgery.
Custom abutments
For People who want an implant that fits the gum closely.
The abutment is made to the shape and height of your gum, to reduce gaps where food can collect.
Bone grafting
For Not enough jaw bone for a standard implant.
Bone is built up first, then the implant is placed. The plan depends on your bone and is explained at the examination.
Implant after extraction
For A busy schedule and a tooth that must be extracted.
In suitable cases, the implant can be placed on the day of extraction, which can skip the usual healing period. It depends on bone and inflammation.
Minish restoration
For Worn, chipped or damaged teeth.
A block material with properties close to natural teeth is used, made one to one for each tooth. The clinic describes it as a health-first approach, not only a cosmetic one.
Resin and laminate
For Small chips and gaps, or wider gaps.
Resin is often finished in one visit. Laminates are used when the area is wider. The dentist explains which fits.
All-ceramic crowns
For A badly gapped, broken or protruding tooth.
A crown made of a material similar to natural teeth, with a small amount of tooth reduction.
Professional whitening
For Stained teeth.
Whitening is done in the clinic by the dentist. A home-use method is also available.
Cavity treatment
For Tooth pain, sensitivity or visible decay.
Treatment follows how far the decay has gone: resin, inlay, crown or root canal. A Diagnodent laser device helps find decay that cannot be seen.
Wisdom tooth removal
For Painful, swollen or impacted wisdom teeth.
X-ray and CT show the position, angle, depth and distance to the nerve before removal. Impacted teeth are also treated.
Jaw joint treatment without surgery
For Jaw pain, clicking or grinding.
Physical therapy, a splint, bite correction and habit advice, chosen after an examination.
Crowns and dentures
For Missing or heavily restored teeth.
An integrated dentistry specialist plans crowns, bridges and dentures.

How we work
Specialists working together, by appointment
Two views on the same tooth
A conservative dentistry specialist and an integrated dentistry specialist look at your case together. The clinic says the same tooth can lead to different advice depending on the specialty, so both views are used.
Natural tooth first
The clinic tries to save a tooth when there is a reasonable chance. When a tooth is beyond saving, it recommends an implant.
Planned visits
Treatment is by appointment. Imaging with panoramic X-ray and 3D CT is done before implants and wisdom tooth removal.
