Frenectomy

Are you or your child struggling with difficulty eating, speaking, or maintaining oral hygiene due to a lip tie or tongue tie? Frenectomies are commonly performed to address these issues, helping restore normal function. With the latest techniques and a gentle approach, Dr. Chong ensures that the procedure is quick and effective and improves oral health and comfort.

This minimally invasive procedure can relieve discomfort and prevent future complications, such as breastfeeding difficulties in infants or speech problems in children. Whether for your child or yourself, a frenectomy can significantly improve oral function and quality of life.

Gum Grafting

If left untreated, receding gums can lead to tooth sensitivity, root exposure, and even tooth loss. Gum grafting is a procedure designed to restore and enhance the health of your gums, especially when gum recession occurs.

Dr. Chong uses advanced techniques to carefully take tissue from another area of your mouth or a donor site to cover exposed roots and restore gum tissue. This not only protects your teeth but also helps improve the appearance of your smile.

Crown Lengthening

Do you feel self-conscious about your gummy smile? Crown lengthening can help! This procedure reshapes the gum tissue and sometimes the bone around your tooth to reveal more of the tooth’s surface, giving your smile a more balanced, natural look.

Dr. Chong uses precise techniques to remove excess gum tissue, ensuring a beautifully proportioned smile. In some cases, the procedure also helps address functional issues, such as preparing a tooth for a crown or dealing with decay or fractures below the gumline.

Impacted Teeth

Impacted teeth occur when a tooth doesn't fully emerge from the gum line, often causing pain or misalignment. This can happen with wisdom teeth or other teeth, and it's important to address the issue early to prevent further dental complications.

Whether it's wisdom teeth that need to be extracted or other teeth that require orthodontic or surgical intervention, we use modern techniques to help you maintain a healthy, functional smile. By identifying and treating impacted teeth early, we can minimize discomfort and ensure your dental health stays on track.

Periodontal Accelerated Osteogenic Orthodontics

Periodontal Accelerated Osteogenic Orthodontics (PAOO) is an advanced procedure designed to speed up orthodontic treatment while improving the overall health of your teeth and gums. By combining the expertise of periodontics and orthodontics, Dr. Chong enhances the bone structure around the teeth to facilitate faster movement, allowing you to achieve your ideal smile in less time.

PAOO works by stimulating bone growth, improving the success of your orthodontic treatment, and shortening the treatment duration. If you’re looking to speed up your orthodontic journey, PAOO could be the ideal solution for you.

TADs

Temporary Anchorage Devices (TADs) are small, non-removable screws placed directly into the jawbone to assist in precise tooth movement during orthodontic treatment. These devices provide extra support and anchorage, ensuring more predictable and effective results, particularly in complex cases where traditional methods alone may not suffice.

The placement of TADs is minimally invasive, and they can be removed once your treatment goals are achieved. If you need advanced orthodontic care to correct alignment issues, TADs could be the solution for achieving faster, more accurate results.
