For others, it may be needed for routine services like dental fillings or even for cleanings and examinations. Understanding the varying needs of our patients, we are pleased to offer a range of sedation options that can safely be used during any of the treatments we offer.

Everyone experiences acute stress from time to time. Generally speaking, this can result in temporary discomfort but poses no serious health risks. However, ongoing and long-term stress is different. Impacting the body systemically, sustained stress increases the chances of heart attack and stroke, contributes to hypertension, and is linked to type 2 diabetes. In addition, it can cause skin problems and acne, exacerbate asthma, and act as a catalyst for mood disorders, depression, and anxiety. It can also do incredible amounts of damage to the teeth.

Stress impacts the teeth in many ways – some direct, some behavioral…

For most patients, Invisalign® treatmnt is slightly faster than orthodontic correction with braces. On average, braces take 18 to 24 months to straighten the teeth. However, they can take up to 36 months in some adults. Invisalign treatment, by comparison, is often completed in just 12 to 18 months, even in cases of pronounced malocclusion.

Being faster than braces is one of many advantages enjoyed by Invisalign. Treatment with this option is less invasive, more comfortable,…

TMD (temporomandibular joint disorder) can refer to several conditions that impact the jaw's alignment. Often marked by clicking and popping noises when biting, chewing, or speaking, TMD may also present with symptoms including:

Dental implants are the longest-lasting tooth replacement option. Made of titanium, a metal stronger than steel but lighter than aluminum, dental implants are designed to last for a lifetime.

Titanium is a biocompatible material that is unlikely to be rejected by the body, but that’s not all. Beyond simply accepting an implant, the body works to secure dental implants in place with osteoblasts and connective tissue, allowing implants to replace the roots of missing teeth and prevent issues such as jaw collapse. What’s more, once accepted by the jaw, there is minimal risk of an implant coming loose…

Tooth extraction may be necessary when a tooth has been damaged. Sometimes, this is due to advanced decay or infection. However, it may also be related to trauma, such as broken teeth, or advanced stages of gum disease.

Typically a last resort, tooth extraction can restore comfort and health to your smile, but this comes with the cost of a missing tooth, leaving many to wonder if there is an alternative to professionally removing teeth.

Can a root canal reduce the need for a tooth extraction? That depends. If the issue is an infected tooth, a root…

Some tooth discoloration is topical. Known as extrinsic staining, this type of discoloration results from foods, such as dark sauces, and beverages, including soda, wine, coffee, and tea. Extrinsic stains respond very well to topical teeth whitening treatments, which can often eliminate the discoloration completely.

At The Smile Centre, we offer Zoom! for in-office treatment. Safe and incredibly effective, Zoom! can lighten your teeth as many as seven shades in just one hour. Results with Zoom! are long-lasting and can be extended through proper oral care and occasional touch-up…

There are two types of facial wrinkles: static, such as creases on the cheeks and around the mouth that are always present, and dynamic, such as frown lines, lip wrinkles, and crow’s feet. And while both types of wrinkles can produce a more aged and tired appearance, they will not respond similarly to the same treatments. This is partly why, at The Smile Centre, we offer both BOTOX® Cosmetic and dermal fillers.

Static wrinkles respond well to dermal fillers like …
