Dental services

The clinic's treatment catalogue covers various areas of general and cosmetic dentistry:

• Frenectomy: a surgical procedure that modifies or corrects the frenum to treat ankyloglossia (tongue-tie) or lip-tie. The clinic pays special attention to infant frenectomy and to counselling in cases of feeding difficulties in babies.
• Teeth whitening: treatments available both in-office and for at-home use.
• Dental crowns and CEREC crowns: they cover severely decayed or broken teeth, preserve tooth structure, and restore the natural size, shape, and colour of the tooth.
• Digital X-rays: technology that produces high-quality images of the teeth, immediately visible to both the patient and the dentist.
• Endodontics: root canal treatment for severely infected or damaged teeth, in order to avoid their extraction.
• Porcelain veneers: to cover stained, discoloured, chipped, cracked, or broken teeth, and to close uneven gaps between teeth.
• Dental implants: replacement of one or more missing teeth using a titanium post surgically inserted into the jawbone.
• Oral cancer screening: regular check-ups aimed at early detection of the disease.
