Dental Cleanings
The dental cleaning services we offer in our dentist office thoroughly cleans the teeth and gums. Routine dental cleanings can help combat gum disease and tooth decay, as well as halitosis and gum swelling. There are multiple benefits that teeth cleanings offer patients. These benefits include:
Plaque removal: Plaque buildup above and below the gum line can cause tooth and gum infection. Our dentists use specialized dental equipment and tools that can be used to get to areas where plaque may build up.
Improved tooth aesthetics: Cleaning the teeth and gums can help rid teeth of stains and teeth can become whiter and brighter with regular cleaning. You may also want to look into professional teeth whitening that our office provides patients for tougher stains.
Fresher breath: Halitosis, also known as bad breath, is often caused by gum infection and food particles stuck between teeth. Cleaning teeth regularly and flossing can help fight infection, leaving your breath fresher and your teeth healthier. Regular dental cleanings twice a year in our Manhattan office also prevent this dental problem.
Cosmetic and Restorative Dental Treatments
Dr. Tan and Dr. Abudayyeh perform a wide range of cosmetic and restorative dental treatments in our midtown New York City dental office. Learn about some of the most popular treatments that she offers patients:
Tooth Whitening: Our professional team offers tooth whitening treatment that is long-lasting, improves tooth health, reverses the effects of aging on teeth, and can help patients improve their confidence in their smile.
Clear Braces: We provide patients with Clear Correct, a treatment that uses a series of clear plastic aligners to gradually straighten crooked teeth over time. Treatment is faster and more comfortable than treatment with traditional metal braces.
Dental Implants: Dental implants consist of a titanium post, abutment, and dental crown that are custom-fit to each patient. This restorative solution is one of the most effective in improving the form and function of the bite and creates a balanced smile.
