1. Check-ups

A regular dental check-up is important because that will help you keep your teeth and gums healthy. You should visit your dentist at least every 6 months. At Sapphire we offer periodic check-up for our clients. Your teeth are checked for cavities, plaque and tartar and your gums for its general health.

2. Cleaning

Even if you brush and floss regularly, getting a cleaning is a great way to keep your mouth healthy and odour-free. Studies have shown a connection between oral and overall health. Regular dental cleanings may help lower your risk of some diseases. At Sapphire we help you keep your teeth clean and healthy always.

3. Fluoride Treatment

Fluoride is a natural mineral that builds strong teeth and prevents cavities. It has been an essential oral health treatment for decades. Fluoride supports healthy tooth enamel and fights the bacteria that harm teeth and gums. Tooth enamel is the outer protective layer of each tooth. Fluoride is especially helpful if you’re at high risk of developing dental caries or cavities. Dentists at Sapphire provide professional fluoride treatments in the form of a highly concentrated rinse, foam, gel or varnish.

4. Mouthguards

We provide the apt mouthguard by checking the anatomy of your teeth. Mouth guards are coverings worn over teeth and often used to protect teeth from injury from teeth grinding or during sports. They typically cover the upper teeth and are a great way to protect the soft tissues of your tongue, lips and cheek lining.

5. Oral Cancer Examination

Oral cancer starts in the cells of the mouth, tongue or throat. Oral cancer screening is usually a routine part of a dental examination. In this exam, your dentist will feel for lumps or irregular tissue changes in your neck, head, face and inside your mouth. Your dentist will also look for sores or discoloured tissue in your mouth.
