Services
Dental Implants
Dental implants provide permanent, natural-looking solutions for missing teeth. Using titanium posts fused to the jawbone, we restore function and aesthetics while preventing bone loss. Ideal for patients seeking durable alternatives to dentures, our implantology expertise ensures precise placement and long-term success through advanced techniques taught by Dr. Leong since 1982.
Endodontics
Endodontic treatment addresses inner tooth damage by removing infected pulp and sealing the space. We specialize in pain-free root canals and retreatments, resolving cracked teeth or persistent infections. Our approach preserves natural teeth, alleviating pain while maintaining oral health through minimally invasive procedures.
Orthodontics
Our 3D orthodontics system uses clear aligners to correct misaligned bites and crooked teeth without traditional braces. This technology improves both aesthetics and function, addressing issues like overbites or spacing to enhance smiles and prevent future dental complications through customized treatment plans.
Periodontics
Periodontic services focus on preventing and treating gum disease, from early gingivitis to advanced periodontitis. We employ non-surgical therapies and surgical interventions to restore gum health, reduce systemic health risks, and preserve tooth-supporting structures for long-term stability.
Sedation Dentistry
Sedation options ensure comfortable care for anxious patients or complex procedures. Using nitrous oxide and conscious sedation, we create relaxed experiences while maintaining safety. This service allows extensive treatments in fewer visits, minimizing discomfort and post-procedural memory.
