Cosmetic Periodontics: Procedures aimed at improving the aesthetics of gum tissue, addressing issues like gummy smiles and gum recession.
Implant Dentures: Stabilized dentures secured with tiny titanium posts for enhanced comfort and stability.
Periodontal Maintenance: Regular dental cleanings and check-ups to prevent and manage gum disease.
Sedation Dentistry: Options available to ensure a relaxed and stress-free experience for anxious patients.
Wilckodontics (Periodontally Accelerated Osteogenic Orthodontics): An advanced technique designed to accelerate orthodontic treatment by stimulating bone tissue for faster tooth movement.
