Dental implants are synthetic tooth roots that are a permanent foundation for fixed or removable replacement teeth. Typically composed of titanium and surgically implanted into the jawbone. At W Dental, we use dental implants for several reasons:
Very Natural
Dental implants resemble natural teeth, allowing our patients to restore their ability to eat, speak, and taste food while improving the beauty of their smiles.
Maintains Structure
Dental implants do not rely on adjacent teeth for support, unlike bridges. Therefore they assist in retaining good tooth structure.
Healthy Jawbones
They can prevent jawbone deterioration that can occur when lost teeth are not replaced.
Beautiful Smiles
Dental implants can enhance self-esteem and confidence by restoring a youthful appearance and enhancing the capacity to speak and chew.
A Step Above Dentures
Our dentists at W Dental find that dental implants are more secure and comfortable than detachable dentures.
Built to Last
With regular upkeep and care, dental implants can last for several years. They can provide a permanent substitute for lost teeth, eliminating the need for frequent replacements.

At W Dental, we pay extensive attention to our children. Children's dentistry, also referred to as pediatric dentistry, focuses on the oral health of infants, children, and adolescents. Our dentists are trained to provide dental care for children, taking their unique developmental needs and stages into account. Additionally, we assist children with special needs or behavioural issues.
Our Goal
The primary objective of our children’s dentistry department is to prevent dental problems in children and promote lifelong good oral hygiene practices. These include routine examinations, cleanings, fluoride treatments, and instructions on proper brushing and flossing methods.
Full Service
Our dentists at W Dental offer restorative services such as fillings, crowns, and extractions for children. In addition, they aid in the prevention of dental injuries and the treatment of dental trauma, as well as offer orthodontic treatment and interceptive orthodontics for the correction of malocclusions and misaligned teeth.
Comfort for Kids
W Dental dentists use child-friendly language, equipment, and techniques to make children's dental visits as stress-free and comfortable as possible. In addition, we instruct parents on how to care for their child's teeth and gums at home and offer advice on diet and nutrition, which can impact oral health.
Teeth for Life
Our philosophy for children's dentistry is to promote oral health and prevent dental problems, laying the groundwork for a lifetime of good oral hygiene.

Invisalign® is a teeth-straightening technique consisting of transparent aligners and is an excellent alternative to conventional metal braces. At W Dental, we believe Invisalign® is a fantastic alternative to traditional braces for several reasons:
Enhances Your Appearance
As the aligners are made of clear plastic, they are significantly less noticeable than traditional metal braces, making them a more appealing option for adults and older adolescents who are self-conscious about their appearance.
Removable
Invisalign® aligners are removable, allowing patients to eat normally and brush their teeth as usual. This allows our patients at W Dental to continue eating their favourite foods and maintaining good oral hygiene without the restrictions associated with traditional braces.
Comfort is Key
Traditional metal brackets and wires are more likely to irritate the gums and soft tissues of the mouth than the aligners' smooth plastic material.
Proven to Work
Invisalign® has been clinically proven to straighten teeth effectively and can be used to treat mild to severe orthodontic issues.
Faster Treatment Times
The majority of Invisalign® cases are completed between 12 and 18 months, which is significantly less time than traditional braces.
Suitable for Everyone
Invisalign® treatment costs are comparable to those of traditional braces and can cure various conditions, including mild to moderate spacing and crowding problems.

Many of our patients at W Dental look to teeth whitening to brighten their smiles through whiter teeth. Numerous teeth-whitening options exist for patients, including in-office procedures, at-home kits, and over-the-counter products. Typically, these techniques use bleaching agents such as hydrogen peroxide or carbamide peroxide to remove stains and discoloration from the tooth surface. The teeth whitening procedures used by our cosmetic dentists are nonintrusive, safe, and offer many benefits:
Enhances Your Appearance
Teeth whitening can remove stains and discoloration, resulting in a brighter and more appealing smile.
Boosts Self Confidence
A whiter, brighter smile can make you feel better about yourself and increase your confidence in social situations.
Enhances Oral Health
Teeth whitening is an effective method for removing surface stains on teeth, which can be caused by food, drink, and tobacco use. This can aid in maintaining oral health and preventing tooth decay.
Safety is #1
Teeth whitening is a non-invasive, low-risk procedure. It is generally regarded as safe when performed by a qualified dentist.
Cost-Effective
Compared to other cosmetic dental procedures, teeth whitening is a cost-effective way to improve the appearance of your teeth.
Importantly, it is always recommended for teeth whitening to be performed under the supervision of our W Dental dentists, and not all patients are appropriate candidates. Additionally, teeth whitening is not a permanent solution; touch-up treatments may be required to maintain the desired whitening.

At W Dental, our root canal procedures help save patients' teeth. The infected or damaged soft tissue inside the tooth (that contains nerves and blood vessels) is removed, and the inside is cleaned and sealed during a root canal. This procedure is typically performed to save a severely decayed or infected tooth, and it can prevent the need for an extraction. Our root canal procedure is safe and is performed under local anesthesia by our dentists. Root canals offer several benefits to our patients:
Pain Relief
At W Dental, a root canal can alleviate the pain and sensitivity from an infected or damaged tooth.
Saves Teeth
Root canal therapy allows the tooth to be saved rather than extracted, thereby preserving the natural appearance and function of the tooth.
Prevents Infection
A root canal can remove bacteria and infected tissue from inside the tooth, preventing further infection and the spreading of bacteria to other teeth.
Long-Term Gain
A root canal is a long-term solution that can help to prevent the need for future dental work on the affected tooth.
Cost-Effective
Our dentists at W Dental believe a root canal is often more cost-effective than having the tooth extracted and replaced with an artificial tooth.

Extraction of the third molars (often known as wisdom teeth) from the back of the jaw is a standard dental procedure performed at W Dental. Typically emerging in late adolescence or early adulthood, wisdom teeth can cause discomfort, infection, or impaction (when the tooth cannot emerge from the gums fully). Our dentists at W Dental perform the extractions, and our patients can typically resume normal activities within a few days to a week following surgery. At W Dental, we see numerous benefits to our patients by extracting wisdom teeth:
Prevents Overcrowding
Wisdom teeth can displace other teeth, causing bite problems and making it difficult to clean the rest of your teeth properly.
Relieves Pain & Infection
When wisdom teeth do not fully emerge or are challenging to clean, they can cause pain and infection.
Prevents Potential Cysts
Wisdom teeth that do not fully emerge can develop cysts, which can cause damage to the jawbone and adjacent teeth.
Makes Orthodontic Treatment Easier
The extraction of wisdom teeth can facilitate orthodontic treatment by allowing the movement of other teeth.
Our dentists at W Dental understand that not everyone needs to have their wisdom teeth extracted. We recommend removal only if they are causing problems or have the potential to do so in the future.
To determine whether wisdom teeth extraction is appropriate for you, please book a consultation at W Dental here.
Veneers are thin, custom-made shells bonded to the front surface of teeth to enhance their appearance. Our cosmetic dentists at W Dental produce veneers from porcelain or composite resin and are used to treat various dental problems. These issues include discoloration, chipped or broken teeth, uneven or misaligned teeth, and gaps between teeth. Using dental cement, our cosmetic dentists bond veneers to the surface of patients’ teeth to improve the appearance of a person's smile.
Benefits of veneers include:
Natural Looking Teeth
At W Dental, we produce a realistic, natural appearance. The colour and translucency of veneers can closely resemble those of natural teeth.
Durable
With proper maintenance, our veneers can last for many years.
Minimal Tooth Reduction
Veneers, unlike crowns, typically require minimal tooth reduction, which reduces appointment times and potential sensitivity.
Stain Resistant
Veneers made by our cosmetic dentists at W Dental are resistant to stains caused by coffee, tea, and tobacco use.
Easy Maintenance
Like natural teeth, veneers may be brushed and flossed.
Patients should understand that once veneers are placed, the natural tooth structure is eliminated, making the veneer permanent. Before placing veneers, our dentists will always discuss the pros and cons while understanding our patients’ goals.
If you think veneers may be right for you, please book a consultation with our cosmetic dentists today.
