[Whitening sessions at a professional dentist’s office](/teeth-whitening/) and some at-home treatments can whiten them. The amount your teeth can be whitened depends on their current condition. Your dentist can work with you to get to a bright smile that can be achieved over time. ## Teeth Stainers It isn’t a surprise that food and beverages are the number one reason teeth turn yellow. Coffee, tea, red wine, tomato sauce dishes, beets, and even berries can stain your teeth and turn them yellow. The surprise for many people is that high-carb foods, sugary foods, and even condiments also turn teeth yellow. Even healthier foods like sweet potatoes and carrots can add yellow stains to your teeth. Soy sauce, balsamic vinegar, curry, and soda are also on the list of top food stainers. Another item that is a primary culprit for teeth stains isn’t a food. It’s tobacco. Whether you smoke, chew, or dip tobacco, it is going to turn your teeth yellow over time. The tar and nicotine in tobacco seep into tooth enamel and cause deep, stubborn yellow stains that are hard to remove. Poor oral hygiene allows [plaque and tartar to build up](/teeth-cleaning-toronto/), and that can result in yellow stains. Certain medications can also leave your teeth stained because they affect the dentin under the enamel. Yellow teeth happen naturally as people age. Dentin under the enamel is yellow rather than white. Aging results in enamel wearing down, revealing the yellow dentin. There isn’t a lot you can do to bring back the white in this case, but other [cosmetic options, like veneers](/cosmetic-dentistry/), are available. ## Bringing Back White Teeth Whiter teeth are within your reach with a [professional whitening session done by a trained dentist](/teeth-whitening/). Professional whitening sessions are highly effective and offer immediate results. An advantage is that a dentist will talk to you about achievable shades and can match the whitener to get the desired shade. ### Professional Whitening Dental offices have access to stronger whitening agents and are trained to use them without damaging teeth, so good results are more likely. Some dentists will send you home with follow-up whitening trays to maintain your smile. Another advantage of professional whitening is that you don’t need to revisit the office for a second session for at least a year, sometimes two or three. However, professional whitening sessions are more expensive than at-home kits. ### At-Home Options There are many at-home kits to choose from for those going that route. The LED whitening kits offer positive results safely when directions are followed. Other less expensive options include whitening strips, whitening toothpaste, rinses, and other products. One home remedy that works is using baking soda occasionally for brushing. Baking soda is a natural brightener. You won’t see results immediately, but you will notice them over time. ## Lifestyle Changes that Brighten Your Teeth - ✦ Changing daily habits can help brighten your teeth and maintain a glowing smile. Minimizing drinks like sodas and certain alcoholic beverages like red wine and Bloody Marys will reduce yellowing. Using straws to drink these types of beverages helps reduce direct contact with teeth, preventing staining. - ✦ Taking Vitamin C is good for your teeth because it reduces bacteria that cause discoloration. - ✦ Eating nutritious foods that clean teeth naturally, like apples and broccoli, can help keep teeth clean and reduce yellow stains. - ✦ One of the best things you can do to improve the health and appearance of your teeth is to keep up with your dental appointments. Getting [regular cleanings](/teeth-cleaning-toronto/) will keep your teeth whiter and healthier. ## Frequently Asked Questions Is it expensive to get your teeth whitened? The cost of teeth whitening depends on the method you use. In-office whitening sessions cost more than at-home kits but offer immediate results and are safer. How long will whitening last? It depends on whether you use an at-home kit or go to a professional whitening session. Results from at-home kits typically last around six months, while professional whitening can last a year or more. Is in-office whitening more effective than at-home kits? Dentists consider in-office whitening more effective than at-home kits because dental offices use a higher concentration of hydrogen peroxide than what is in at-home kits. Can you whiten your teeth too much? Yes, you can use too many whitening agents on your teeth. This happens with some using at-home whitening kits incorrectly or other dangerous home remedy methods. Over-whitening can cause your teeth to become translucent. It removes the enamel, causes tooth sensitivity, and can lead to weak teeth or tooth loss. ### Ready for a Whiter Smile?

Missing teeth no longer need to be an embarrassment or a sign of age. You can have functional replacements that aren’t [dentures](https://editiondental.com/cosmetic-dentistry/). Two choices for replacing missing teeth are [dental implants](https://editiondental.com/dental-implants/) and bridges. They both serve the same purposes of allowing for function and keeping your other teeth straight and in place. However, each has some differences also that should be considered. ### Dental Implants Dental implants, as they are done now, are a fairly new trend. They are a permanent solution to missing teeth that offer a natural-looking replacement that functions as your real tooth. Dental implants consist of two parts which are the metal post and the cap, which is the tooth replacement. The post is inserted into the jawbone and serves as a type of tooth root that keeps the artificial tooth, or cap, in place. The artificial tooth is placed over it so it fits into the space in your mouth as your old tooth fits. Dental implants are customized to fit into your mouth as your old tooth. They look like your old tooth and people will never know they aren’t real. This is one of the best features of getting an implant. Those who have many missing teeth aren’t precluded from getting implants. You can get implants to fit a whole series of missing teeth, even a whole row. The complications of getting a dental implant are that whether you get one depends on the bone density in your jaw. Those with less bone density may need a [bone graft](https://editiondental.com/oral-surgery/) before getting an implant. Most dentists will recommend that you get a bone graft when you get the [tooth extracted](https://editiondental.com/wisdom-teeth-removal/). That is the easiest and cheapest avenue since you are already having surgery. After that, the dentist will recommend you allow for three or so months for healing before getting an implant. ### The Cost of Implants [Dental implants in Toronto](https://editiondental.com/dental-implants/) cost more than other options as they can cost between $1500 and $6000 per tooth. The final cost depends on the materials used for the implant and the extent of how many implants are needed. One of the disadvantages of dental implants when compared to a bridge is that they will cost more than a bridge. Another disadvantage is that most insurance doesn’t pay for implants. ### Dental Bridges Dental bridges are artificial teeth that fill the gaps left by missing teeth. They can be permanent or removable. Bridges are affixed to the mouth using attachments to the teeth on both sides of the gap. Those teeth will have crowns that clasp onto natural teeth that can be undone for removable bridges. Permanent bridges are affixed to prepared teeth with dental cement. The anchor teeth on both sides of the gap create support for the bridge. Some dentists opt to anchor the bridge with a dental implant post. Three types of bridges are available. There are the traditional fixed bridges, cantilever bridges, and Maryland bonded bridges. Traditional bridges use the two crowns on anchor teeth to hold the bridge in place permanently. Cantilever bridges have one crown on an adjacent tooth and no tooth on the other side. These are bridges for the very back of the mouth. Maryland bonded bridges are typically used for the front teeth. It is a bridge made of metal teeth and a framework with porcelain fused to it and bonded with resin. Bridges are highly durable and offer a natural look. They can help with both speaking and eating as they fill the gap of missing teeth. A bridge can replace one or several teeth. Bridges have been used for decades and have a proven track record of success. One advantage of getting a bridge over an implant is that it is less expensive. The average cost is between $800 and $1200 for those with insurance and the cost can range between $2000 and $3000 for those without insurance. Dental bridges are less complicated to install than implants. They don’t involve surgery or bone grafts and don’t require months of healing before installing them. Most are covered by insurance. However, they could need replacing in the future as sometimes bridges fail. Bridges are a good option for those who don’t have the proper bone density in the jaw for an implant. Those who are choosing between implants and bridges should consider the time, cost, and oral health in their decision. There could be some cases where either one can be less expensive either in the short term or make for a less costly long-term option. **Categories:** Uncategorized --- ### [How Often Should You Floss?](https://editiondental.com/how-often-should-you-floss/) **Published:** December 3, 2024 **Author:** Edition Dental **Content:** Flossing is one of the best things you can do to prevent cavities, plaque, and tartar from attacking your teeth. It can clear food debris from in between teeth, wipe away plaque from around gums, and keep your entire mouth cleaner and healthier. Dentists suggest doing so once per day, but that doesn’t mean you can only do it once per day. A couple of flossings can take care of gum pain or irritation from food stuck to your teeth and keep plaque off. You should floss when you think you need to clean your teeth better. Often, that means after dinner, when tidying away such things as bits of meat, corn, or nuts stuck between the teeth. It also assists in flossing after eating items such as popcorn or sticky candy to eradicate painful kernel shells or candy that attaches to teeth even after brushing. Using it after twice-daily brushing is another prime time for flossing. Flossing gets rid of all the little bits and pieces that brushing can miss, which helps make your mouth as clean as possible or at least the tidiest version of yourself. ### Why Do People Avoid Flossing? Flossing is a pain for people to do. It’s not clear why so many people feel that way because it’s an easy thing to do. But many avoid it because they find it cumbersome. The first thing to do is know how to floss correctly. [Your dentist or hygienist](https://editiondental.com/general-dentistry/) will demonstrate this to you, but essentially, you hold the string with both hands, slide it between teeth, and move it back and forth. This cleans food debris, but to get plaque between teeth, you’ll need to curve the string around each tooth. Make sure you get right up to the gumline to get rid of plaque there. Once you have adapted to flossing your teeth, it should not take a long time to complete it. ### Feel Better About Flossing Flavored floss can make cleaning those teeth better. You may even have the aftertaste of mint from flossing to enjoy after you’ve completed your mission. People who struggle to hold onto the string or who want an easier experience with flossing might want to invest in a water flosser. This emits a pressurized stream of water between your teeth to dislodge food particles. While water flossers are quite effective, dentists recommend they be used alongside string flossing. Even those who have mobility problems can use a water flosser for a hail of good. ### Be Gentle People who want to get through their oral health care routine as quickly as they can, in a way that they don’t treat it as a chore, are usually aggressive in brushing and flossing. A gentle touch is crucial for your teeth and gums to prevent gum bleeding and enamel damage. Flossing is a simple but essential thing you can do to get food from between your teeth. It should be part of your oral health hygiene to help stop cavities from forming, prevent tooth decay, and help prevent [gum disease](https://editiondental.com/periodontics/).

The best course of action for those with this condition is to see a doctor. Even so, it’s good to understand what it is and the cause underneath foamy saliva. ### What Is It? Foamy saliva is when you spit and the result is a frothy substance. It is whiter than usual as well as foamy. It always indicates another health issue but it could be either a minor one or a more serious one. Healthy saliva can change even in a healthy person. You may salivate more at the smell of a steak or become dry-mouthed when going on a date with someone for the first time. Everyone has a type of saliva that is normal to them without any negative health factors. It may be sticky or thick, for instance. In all cases, healthy saliva constantly keeps your mouth moist with few exceptions. This is critical for a healthy mouth because saliva washes away food debris and bacteria. Lowered levels of it lead to issues like [tooth decay](https://editiondental.com/general-dentistry/) and [gum disease](https://editiondental.com/periodontics/). Saliva also helps in chewing and swallowing. A lack of it could cause nutritional problems. ### The Root Cause of Foamy Saliva Almost all foamy saliva is caused by dry mouth. The real issue is the cause of the dry mouth. That can be a temporary situation like dehydration, stress, anxiety, or sleeping with your mouth open. A dry mouth could also be a symptom of diabetes, oral thrush, cancer, stroke, Alzheimer’s Disease, or HIV/AIDS. There is a middle ground of conditions foamy saliva can be associated with like acid reflux or an infection. Medical professionals also look at other serious issues when they have a patient with this condition and those include a rabies infection or a drug overdose. However, those conditions have other symptoms beyond a foamy mouth that point to it. ### Medications Many medications can leave you with a foamy mouth, according to the Cleveland Clinic. Medications that tend to dry up the mouth like antihistamines or decongestants are the culprits. Other medications associated with foamy spit are anti-depressants, anxiety medications, blood pressure drugs, muscle relaxants, and pain medication. Even some over-the-counter can cause this issue. ### When to Go to a Doctor You may not feel like your foamy saliva warrants medical attention. It could be that it happens after a workout, signaling you need more water. Look at your lifestyle and when the condition started for a clue on whether it is temporary or a sign of something more serious. Those with chronic health conditions like diabetes are more prone to this problem. In that case, you may want to try other measures before seeing a doctor. There are over-the-counter treatments like mouth rinses or oral moisturizers for dry mouth. You can also try lozenges or sugar-free gum to generate saliva flow. Those who don’t have a way to pinpoint an obvious possible cause for foamy mouth should see their doctor. This becomes more of a concern if the condition doesn’t go away in a few days after you’ve drank more water or tried over-the-counter items. Your doctor will look at your medications and offer to change them to remedy the problem or run tests to determine the cause. ### What You Can Do The one thing you can do to reduce foamy saliva is to maintain solid oral healthcare practices. That includes brushing twice a day and flossing. Both stimulate saliva flow. Products like water flossers, tongue scrapers, and antimicrobial mouth rinses are also helpful. ### Talk to Your Dentist It may be easier to approach this situation by talking to your [dentist](https://editiondental.com/) before approaching your doctor. Your dentist can help find the root cause and offer solutions to reduce symptoms if it’s strictly an [oral health problem](https://editiondental.com/general-dentistry/). They can refer you to your doctor if they feel a foamy mouth indicates something more serious. We are here to help you remedy issues like foamy saliva.

Several reasons make this the best age, but the final determining factor depends on your child and their dental history. ## FOUR REASONS FOR PRE-ADOLESCENT TREATMENT Reasons for installing teeth braces on children when they are between 9 and 11 years old are scientific from a [dentist’s](https://editiondental.com/) view. Others take a child’s emotional well-being and peer standing into account. 1 ### Complete Permanent Dentition Orthodontists want to wait until the child has all their permanent teeth in place before installing braces. Otherwise, braces can interfere with erupting and growing teeth. Plus, having all adult teeth shows the orthodontist all the problems to be fixed. 2 ### Optimal Tooth Mobility A child between the ages of 9 and 11 years old has all their adult teeth, but those teeth are not fully set into the jawbone. They can be easily moved by the braces and that makes for easier, more effective treatment. 3 ### Social Acceptance Getting metal braces at this age isn’t unusual. It’s practically a rite of passage. Your pre-adolescent won’t feel out of place and won’t be teased because many other kids are wearing braces too. Your child will be able to talk to others going through orthodontic treatment about all that’s involved and getting peer support is healthy. 4 ### Pre-High School Completion Orthodontic treatments take between 18 months to 3 years to complete. That puts the child at around 11 to 14 years old when the braces come off. High school is an important social time for kids and being able to show a confident smile as they enter their freshman year will give them a great start. ## FINANCIAL ADVANTAGES Braces are expensive but traditional metal braces are the most affordable option. Children aged 9 to 11 years old do fine with these. Older kids in high school are more self-conscious and tend to want more fashionable, expensive options like ceramic braces or clear aligners. Plus, treatments may take longer since their teeth are more fixed into the jaw. You can save money by getting your younger child into orthodontic treatments before they hit puberty. ## WHEN TO CONSULT AN ORTHODONTIST Children should be seeing a dentist from the time they get their first baby tooth. A dentist can monitor oral health and teeth growth, including eruption of their first permanent teeth. #### First Orthodontic Consultation Eruption of their first adult teeth is when you should take your child for their first orthodontist visit. Permanent teeth start coming in around age 7. An orthodontist will give a simple exam to see if teeth are coming in straight. They will monitor adult teeth as they come in so you can be prepared if orthodontics is needed. ## POSITIVE ORTHODONTIC EXPERIENCE Parents may think that getting braces for a pre-adolescent child has a lot of negative impact, but my experience shows otherwise. They are the least affected by orthodontic treatments and rebound easily. Older teens are more self-conscious because they are involved in more extracurricular activities, which means pictures, yearbook photos, social media posts, and dating. ### PROFESSIONAL ORTHODONTIC CONSULTATION You and your child can make an appointment to discuss your orthodontic needs with us. We can show you how things will look and even show your child how their teeth will look after treatments with our virtual reality program. [SCHEDULE YOUR CONSULTATION](https://editiondental.com/contact-us/) ## FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS Have braces changed a lot since I had them?Braces have changed a lot in terms of how they look and the options to metal braces. The function and way braces work haven’t changed because they’ve always been effective. Will my child need to be educated about how to clean braces?Yes, we talk to your child and show them the proper way to keep braces clean. It may take some practice but they will get used to the change of routine. Will braces change my child’s diet?To some degree, braces will force your child to change what they eat. Things like popcorn, sticky candies, and gum are off limits. We will talk to them about what they can eat and how to manage eating with braces. How can I pay for braces for my pre-teen?Many options exist for paying for orthodontics and they range from government programs to budget-friendly payment plans. We can discuss all of your options with you. **Categories:** Orthodontics --- ### [Why Choosing a Dentist Open 7 Days Makes Life Easier](https://editiondental.com/why-choosing-a-dentist-open-7-days-makes-life-easier/) **Published:** November 26, 2025 **Author:** Edition Dental **Content:** Having a dentist on call seven days a week isn’t a luxury anymore. It has become a basic need for employees and residents in Downtown Toronto. For Instance in Liberty Village, families have to juggle between work and school, young professionals lead busy lives, and every now and then, a [dental emergency](https://editiondental.com/emergency-dentist-toronto/) could occur. A dental office open all week means peace of mind and flexibility. Patients have the opportunity to strike a balance between work, school, and emergency appointments and avoid having to rearrange their week to fit a dental appointment. It is about having the flexibility, and a dental office open seven days a week makes the life of the patients easier when it comes to making the decision to choose a dentist Easily. ## Why Mobility is Important in a Busy City Almost everything in Toronto is busy. There’s work. Social life. Personal life. Daily Commute. Daily Responsibilities. All of them combine to create a Toll on the Residents of Toronto. That is why it’s extremely difficult for someone to fit in dental appointments to their week. This is the case in Liberty Village and Downtown Toronto, where the population is a combination of service professionals, families, shift workers, entrepreneurs and others. All having the same goal of finding spare time in their busy days. Patients have numerous commitments outside of work, making it difficult to fit dental appointments into their schedule, especially given dental-office hours. Most dental practices have standard Monday to Friday, 9-to-5 work hours. Patients often run the risk of not being able to show up; leaving dental appointments until the last minute, and having to take time off work. This is very stressful, and also causes complications with their overall dental health. Operating a dental practice 24/7 is very accommodating. Patients can always prioritize their schedules- now, they will not have to compromise their dental health. Patients appreciate being able to manage their health, and fit it into their schedules with the convenience of flexible hours. ## Don’t Hesitate, Book Your Appointment Patients prefer being able to schedule appointments whenever they want to. No one enjoys taking time off work to sit in a dental chair for a cleaning or simple follow-up, and the time they spend in transit to the appointment is time lost as well. Having extended hours for appointments allows us to offer convenience. We can also provide the quality expected in modern dentistry, with specialties in [periodontal care](https://editiondental.com/periodontics/), [orthodontics](https://editiondental.com/orthodontics/) and more. Having dental practices open every day with flexible appointment making is beneficial for patients especially those with children. Children have a lot of extracurricular activities, especially sports. Don’t take kids out of school, and waste time with kids in a waiting room. Make dental appointments for times that work with other activities in the family’s schedule. Depending on the sector, employees may not have the ability to make appointments at certain times. For example, someone working in retail, health care or hospitality may not be able to make weekday appointments, thereby showing the importance of having weekends. For these individuals, weekends become the only viable option for appointments. Pain, infections, and swellings are issues that can flare up at any time. So if the dentist only offers Monday to Friday appointments, their clients may be left to suffer and in need of a suitable dental emergency framework, or have to go to an emergency department that can’t address their dental problems and may leave them with more problems that are unresolved. A downtown Toronto dentist open on the weekends can assist people requiring walk-in urgent care. They can close the issue at its source, lessening the chances of pain and complications arising, and preventing the issue from becoming more severe. If someone can be treated on the spot, it is without question that they do not have a dental emergency. They can leave the office without concerns, and there will be no gaps in obtaining the required help. ## Greater Availability and Flexibility in Booking Appointments Being open to patients seven days a week increases the number of appointments that can be offered to patients, and allows appointments to be scheduled and filled more easily. As a result, patients experience less waiting time to get appointments, and have shorter waiting times between appointments. This is an especially large benefit to patients who are in the process of completing their treatment plans so they are less likely to experience long gaps in between appointments and can finish their plans in a more timely and efficient manner. Such patients are able to easily consult without delays for concerns such as displacement sensitivity, gum irritation, [missing teeth](https://editiondental.com/dental-implants/), or signs of infection/effect. Early intervention is extremely beneficial, as it is less bothersome, easier, and more affordable to get the best solution. ## Accessibility for the Busy Working Individual People who inhabit Liberty Village and downtown Toronto area have long commutes and fully packed schedules, causing them to have a hard time achieving work and life balance. Due to back-to-back meetings, strict project deadlines, and fully booked workdays, it is extremely hard to find time for a dental appointment, especially when they are only open during weekdays. A dentist open all seven days of the week provides a chance for patients to keep up with their activities and have their dental needs taken care of. With extended hours in the evenings and over the weekends, dental care is easily achievable without compromising work and personal responsibilities. This model allows patients to easily take care of their teeth. It is simple to keep a schedule when your dentist is open all week, every week. This provides a chance for patients to have ongoing relationships with their dentist, and to get ongoing care. ## Assisting Families and Parents Families have to align their work and school schedules as best as they can. Families appreciate the convenience of being able to have a dentist open seven days a week. They can schedule visits to the dentist without having to pull their kids out of school. Younger children can require extra time and care during their dental visits. Weekend hours allow for more manageable situations. Families can go to appointments without the weekday time restrictions and go at their own pace. Parents are encouraged to make appointments for check ups more often and this can lead to better dental health and positive dental habits. ## Great for Students and Young People Toronto’s downtown core contains a large number of students and young professionals. It is home to several colleges and universities along with many training schools. Because of their busy schedules, which include classes, coursework, part time work, internships and social activities, it can be hard to find time for a dental appointment during the week. In this area, having a dentist open all week, including weekends, is especially important for helping students look after their oral health. This age group is particularly important for preventive care, and young adults do better with [routine cleanings](https://editiondental.com/teeth-cleaning-toronto/), and check-ups, as well as treatment for sensitivity, cavities, and [wisdom teeth](https://editiondental.com/wisdom-teeth-removal/). ## A Fantastic Choice for Individuals with Busy Lives A flexible schedule with a dentist open every day means patients can reschedule appointments on short notice. Without having to wait weeks for the next available opening, busy patients can fit appointments into their schedule with ease. This also helps patients stay on top of their oral health. There is a lower risk of treatment gaps and missed preventive care. This kind of accessibility is very important for people with busy lives. ## Less Stress and More Freedom Weekday appointments can feel rushed, so having a dentist available seven days a week helps patients feel less pressure. They do not have to feel rushed into squeezing appointments into a weekday lunch break. Weekends also reduce the anxiety patients might have surrounding their visit. They can choose a less busy time for themselves so they feel more comfortable and confident. ## Better Continuity of Care When dental clinics have more open appointment times, patients are able to keep consistent follow-up visits as well as regular preventive care and dental work maintenance. This keeps dental health on track and prevents patients from neglecting issues that could become worse over time. Patients also gain more touchpoints with their dental team which adds to their trust and comfort, and satisfaction with the care they are receiving. ## Why Liberty Village Residents Benefit Even More Toronto is a very recognized city in the world and is one of the fastest-growing cities in Canada with Liberty Village being one of the most dynamic neighborhoods and home to many, including several young families, busy professionals, and entrepreneurs. Residents highly appreciate convenience and accessibility. Dentists that are open seven days a week is a perfect fit for the area. With long work hours, rotating schedules, and busy routines, clinics that are only available during the week is not always a plausible option. Having a seven-day dentist is very helpful for these individuals and helps them manage their oral health more effectively. This is especially beneficial for those that have packed weekends or work downtown. ## Factors to Consider When Choosing a Dentist Open 7 Days a Week Dominica’s 7 day open hours can definitely be beneficial to a lot of patients, but not every 7 day open hour practice is as good as it sounds. When choosing a 7 day open practice, look for the following: ### Location Accessibility Ideally located close to public transport, or within a short walking distance to the practice. ### Service Available Does the practice include [general dentistry](https://editiondental.com/general-dentistry/) and emergency services? What about paediatric, orthodontic and/or [oral surgery](https://editiondental.com/oral-surgery/) services? ### Experience and Qualifications Have the dentists and healthcare professionals in the practice completed the necessary accreditation and training for the field in which they practice? Is it a relevant field? What about the staff? ### Equipment and Infection Control It’s important for a dental practice to be equipped with current dental equipment and thorough/informed infection control mechanisms to minimise the chances of exposing patients to infections unnecessarily. ### Opening Hours Do they offer early morning, or evening appointments? ### Care Concerns Most patients report regaining the faith in their healthcare system after experiencing care-focused and gentle healthcare. For patients located in or near Liberty Village, the ability to see a nearby dentist can greatly assist ease of practice visits and commuting stress. ## 7 Day a Week Dentistry Supports Preventative Care Preventative healthcare for our teeth is the most important for longterm oral health. Scheduled dentist visits for cleanings, examinations, x-rays, and oral hygiene appointments can significantly reduce the risk of complications as the visits allow the dentist to monitor for early detection and remediation. A dentist who is open 7 days a week helps their patients easily stay consistent with beneficial oral health monitored habits. Keeping close track of oral health helps the dentist reduce the obstacles and issues that can lead to a larger more complex problem, and the overall cost and discomfort of potential more invasive procedures. Therefore, accessible dental care plays a crucial role in helping to maintain an overall healthy lifestyle. ## Serenity for You and Your Loved Ones Having on-site dental care and access puts your mind at ease. Every weekend for us, means being on-call in case you have an emergency also, like an unforeseen toothache or a chipped tooth or if you just need an easy and relaxing dental visit for a weekend cleaning.

Live stress free, and have your dental needs dealt with when you see fit. **Categories:** Same Day Appointments --- ### [Can Immigrants Qualify for the Canadian Dental Care Plan?](https://editiondental.com/can-immigrants-qualify-for-the-canadian-dental-care-plan/) **Published:** March 25, 2025 **Author:** Edition Dental **Content:** Many of Canada’s eight million immigrants qualify for the Canadian Dental Care Plan (CDCP). For those who don’t, Canada has other options that can meet your needs. Canada saw an influx of immigrants totaling 1.3 million between 2016 and 2021. Immigrants now make up 20 percent of the population so providing quality dental care for those moving and living in Canada is a priority. ### Qualifications for CDCP The CDCP eligibility requirements doesn’t address immigrants specifically but all those qualifying must meet the four basic criteria: 1. Permanent residency in Canada 2. Filing taxes in Canada last year. 3. An adjusted family net income of less than $90,000 annually. 4. No access to private dental insurance either through an employer, labor group, professional organisation, school organisation or personally. The primary hurdles for immigrants are going to be the first two qualifications. An immigrant that has permanent residency in Canada would qualify for the CDCP. This includes refugees, asylum seekers, and those immigrating to Canada. Those who wouldn’t fall into this category are those living in Canada for work and students as they will eventually return to their home country. The second qualification may pose the biggest hurdle for new immigrants. You must file taxes to the Canadian government for the previous year in order to qualify for the CDCP. This is an important issue because your annual net family income will be listed on the tax filing. The annual net family income on the tax return verifies your qualification for the CDCP regarding income limitations. A household must have an annual net adjusted family income of less than $90,000. Those who don’t file a tax return for the previous year aren’t eligible for this dental plan. The final qualification is that you don’t have access to other dental coverage. This is a crucial eligibility requirement as the dental plan is targeting those who otherwise would go without coverage. Immigrants who aren’t provided with an option for dental coverage through their employer, their spouse’s employer, a trade or labour group, professional or student organization are eligible for the CDCP. Also, you can’t get private personal dental insurance. This means you weren’t offered a dental plan through any of these methods and don’t have the option of getting a private plan because it’s too expensive or you aren’t eligible. It doesn’t include people who opt-out or deny dental coverage through any of these methods. Private dental coverage must be inaccessible to you to qualify for the CDCP. ### Applying for the CDCP Previously, the Canadian government’s dental plan was open to senior citizens, children, and the disabled. The final roll-out phase is happening this year so it will be open to all. You can [apply online ](https://www.canada.ca/en/services/benefits/dental/dental-care-plan/apply.html)here but will need to have some information ready when you apply. Everyone in your household can apply for coverage but it’s advised to fill out only one application for everyone. This includes your spouse/common-law partner and any children. Filling out one application prevents delay. Information you will need to apply for the CDCP includes Social Insurance Numbers (SIN)for everyone in your home, although some children may not have them yet. You will need to also provide birthdates for everyone, especially children who don’t have a Social Insurance Number yet. Other required information includes everyone’s full name, home and mailing address, and a list of dental programs you obtain through government social programs. This won’t prevent you from getting CDCP but will help coordinate coverage. You will also need information from your previous year’s Canadian tax return and your last Notice of Assessment. Those who haven’t filed their 2024 tax returns yet may use those from 2023. ### Can Someone Help Me Apply? Yes, you may request the help of a relative or friend to help you apply for the CDCP. The government understands you may have a language barrier so it is also allowable to have an interpreter help you through the process. The one requirement is that you can clearly state that you have agreed to allow someone to help you. Those who don’t have someone they can trust to help apply for the CDCP can use a delegate. A delegate is someone listed on documents as having the legal authority to make decisions and represent you. This includes someone who has power of attorney, a mandate, or who oversees a trusteeship. In the case of using a delegate, you must submit documents to prove they have the legal authority to represent you. You will need to mail either the original documents or certified copies to your region’s Service Canada location. You can find the proper address [here. ](https://www.canada.ca/en/services/benefits/dental/dental-care-plan/apply.html) Documents should include a cover letter with your full name, your SIN, a statement the documents are being submitted for the CDCP, and the delegate’s name and contract information. You should also include a return address for the Service Center to return your documents. ### Other Ways to Get Dental Coverage Immigrants who may not qualify for the CDCP may be able to get dental and other types of medical coverage through provincial or territorial insurance options. While the CDCP requires you to be a permanent Canadian resident, these regional programs have options for temporary Canadian residents such as international students and foreign workers in Canada on work permits. Each province or territorial health insurance plan has its own criteria but all include requirements like holding a valid study or work permit and intending to stay in the province for a specific time that is typically at least six months. These plans allow immigrants to access basic health and dental care at a point-of-service with no out-of-pocket cost. ### Private Insurance for Visitors Those visiting Canada for less than six months have no public health insurance options so they must have private insurance to cover all medical and dental expenses while in the country. Private insurance usually offers emergency treatment options but you will need to check your plan if that is your option. ### Understanding Options Immigrants planning on remaining in Canada have many options for high-quality dental coverage. Look at your situation and gather your documents so see if you qualify for the CDCP or some other public offering. Local dental offices are also helpful in answering questions about treatment costs, how to pay for treatment, and identifying your options. **Categories:** Canadian Dental Care Plan --- ## Pages ### [Home](https://editiondental.com/) **Published:** June 5, 2024 **Author:** Edition Dental **Content:** ![Edition Dental Full Logo](https://editiondental.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/06/edition-dental-logo.webp) # EXCEPTIONAL DENTISTRY IN LIBERTY VILLAGE ## OPEN 7 DAYS A WEEK - MON-FRI: 7AM - 9PM - SAT-SUN: 8AM - 6PM OPEN 7 DAYS A WEEK SAME DAY APPOINTMENTS HIGH QUALITY CARE DIRECT BILLING TO INSURANCE ## EXTRAORDINARY SERVICE & EXCEPTIONAL DENTISTRY ![Edition Dental 19 Ordnance St, Toronto, ON M6K 0E4](https://editiondental.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/06/image-1.webp) No two dental clinics are alike; Why should ours be?

Our warm atmosphere, skilled and caring staff, and experienced dentists can make it a better experience than most imagine. ![Wisdom teeth specialists Toronto](https://editiondental.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/06/Rectangle-5-2.webp) ![Wisdom teeth removal near me Toronto](https://editiondental.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/06/Rectangle-4-1.webp) Wisdom teeth start erupting in the early adult years after turning 17 or 18 years old and may come in at different times. We can extract them whenever they come in and you can return to work and school either the same day or next, depending on the case. [ Contact us ](https://editiondental.com/contact-us/) ## How Are Wisdom Teeth Pulled? Wisdom teeth can come in straight or at a strange angle. They can grow oddly because most people’s mouths are too small to accommodate these four teeth in the back of the mouth. They can also be impacted. Here is what happens when you prepare to have your wisdom teeth removed. ![Wisdom teeth removal clinic Toronto](https://editiondental.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/06/fi_5720994.svg)The dentist will do X-rays to see how they grow, and if they grow into the jawbone, under the gum, or against other teeth. ![Wisdom teeth removal clinic Toronto](https://editiondental.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/06/fi_5720994.svg)The dentist will put a topical anesthetic on the gum to numb it for a shot of a local anesthetic. ![Wisdom teeth removal clinic Toronto](https://editiondental.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/06/fi_5720994.svg)The patient will be given a shot of the local anesthetic to numb the area. ![Wisdom teeth removal clinic Toronto](https://editiondental.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/06/fi_5720994.svg)A dentist or an oral surgeon will extract the tooth. ## Wisdom Teeth Removal Is Routine ## Extraction Procedure Has Little Downtime Wisdom teeth extractions can be simple if they are growing straight. It is just like any other tooth extraction using a local anesthetic. Impacted wisdom teeth can result in a more complicated surgery but even those extractions are routine. Impacted wisdom teeth are when the tooth grows into the gum, the back part of the jaw, the jaw bone, or into or under other teeth. This can cause pain and problems later. People don’t need wisdom teeth today and find having them pulled as they come helps keep other teeth from being too crowded or crooked. ![Weekend wisdom teeth removal Toronto](https://editiondental.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/06/Rectangle-9-2.webp) ![Best General Dentist Toronto](https://editiondental.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/06/promotion-banner-scaled.webp) ### $99 Teeth Cleaning IT’S A LIFESTYLE.

Teeth cleaning is part of regular dental exams, which should be done twice yearly. Regular teeth cleaning is painless and requires no shots and no anesthesia. A hygienist will also give your teeth a good flossing and show you how to do it properly so you can make that a part of your daily routine. [ Contact us ](https://editiondental.com/contact-us/) ![Dental cleaning near me Toronto](https://editiondental.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/06/Rectangle-5-1.webp) ## How Are Teeth Cleaned? Routine dental cleanings can come before or after an exam but typically occur after digital X-rays if X-rays are done, and before the dentist does the exam. Here is what to expect: - Dentists or hygienists will use a small mirror to help them as they use a scaler to remove plaque and tartar around gums and between teeth. You will hear scraping but won't feel pain. - Professional flossing will be done by a hygienist - A hygienist will give you a light fluoride rinse. - The hygienist or dentist will then use a powerful electric brush to remove any remaining tartar. It will make a grinding noise but there is no pain. - In some cases or as an additional treatment, the hygienist or dentist can give you a fluoride treatment. It's a foamy gel or sticky paste put into a mouthpiece and placed over your teeth. They may also paint fluoride varnish onto teeth. It will harden and come off after about four hours. ## Teeth Cleaning Keeps Your Smile Healthy Get that Fresh Mouth Feeling at Edition Nothing feels better than how your tongue runs across your teeth after you’ve had a teeth cleaning. Regular teeth cleanings are one way you can prevent cavities, tooth decay, and gum disease because they remove bacteria-ridden plaque and tartar. We at Edition also have deep teeth cleaning. This is where the dentist goes a step further than regular cleanings by removing plaque and tartar from underneath the gums. This helps gums that are in the early stages of gum disease heal. Deep teeth cleanings are done under local anesthesia so you never have pain ![Best General Dentist Toronto](https://editiondental.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/06/promotion-banner-scaled.webp) ### Your healthiest smile starts here IT’S A LIFESTYLE.

Twice yearly professional dental cleanings are an essential part of a healthy oral health routine. Benefits of teeth cleanings at EDITION dental in Liberty Village include: - Removing plaque and tartar buildup - Brightening the smile - Decreasing the likelihood of periodontal disease - Lessening irritation at the gum line - Improving bad breath - Getting rid of harmful bacteria in the mouth - Preserving dental enamel - Using advanced dental equipment and state-of-the-art technology - As a vital part of a preventive dental care plan, dental cleanings can reduce the likelihood of needing invasive treatments later. Contact our office in Liberty Village office to arrange your appointment. Are you walking around with mismatched teeth, a mouth full of metal and mercury fillings? Well, no more! At EDITION dental, we only work with composite fillings that are mercury free, natural looking and durable so that your teeth can look and feel flawless by the time you leave our office. If you have silver fillings, we sometimes recommend replacing them with composite as they can corrode, leak, and cause stains on your teeth and gums. The ‘pulp chamber’ is inside each of your teeth and houses the blood vessels, nerves, and connective tissues. When the pulp in this chamber becomes infected it becomes necessary to remove the infection in order to prevent tooth loss and other major issues. Root canal therapy is the procedure to remove such infection. It is a safe, effective, and quick way to preserve the quality and appearance of your smile. While night guards sound like something unsavory, they are a simple, powerful, and pain-free way to protect your teeth from nighttime grinding. ## DO YOU NEED ONE? Hyperactive jaw muscles can cause some people to grind while they sleep. Grinding flattens and shortens your teeth. Our teeth get softer the deeper you go, and over time the damage begins to accelerate. ## WHAT ARE NIGHT GUARDS? At first glance, a night guard may look like a simple piece of plastic. But it’s a sophisticated appliance, custom-molded to your mouth and worn to protect your teeth from harmful grinding while you sleep. ## WHAT IS THE PROCESS? It’s pain-free and simple! At EDITION dental, our team will take a scan of your teeth and your bite, then custom mold your night guard. The custom fit will ensure comfort and allow your jaw to move gently when you grind. ## A smile just isn't a smile when teeth are missing. Modern advances in dental technology make it possible to completely restore your smile, whether you have lost one or many teeth. At EDITION dental, we create dentures and partial dentures that are affordable, lifelike and provide a higher level of comfort for the patient. ## IMPLANT SUPPORTED DENTURES & PARTIALS Dental implants are small titanium posts, securely anchored into the natural jawbone. If you prefer a secure full or partial denture and do not want to constantly deal with clips or adhesives, implant-supported dentures are the perfect solution. In a brief surgery, our oral surgeon or cosmetic dentist implants titanium posts that hold your dentures in place. With implant-supported dentures, you won’t have to worry about your denture slipping or shifting. Your teeth look and function just like beautiful, straight, natural teeth. ## WHAT IS A PARTIAL? A partial denture, commonly referred to simply as a partial, consists of multiple teeth on a gum colored base. The replacement teeth may be in a row or spread across the base to fit like a puzzle with your existing teeth. A partial is normally secured with clips or brackets, and, unlike a bridge, a partial is removable. At EDITION dental, our skilled dental professionals will choose the perfect size, shape and colour match so you can feel confident when you smile again. ## WHAT IS A DENTURE? A full denture is a complete top or bottom row of teeth affixed to a gum-colored base. Dentures can be closed or open palate and may require denture adhesive to hold them in place. We offer the most advanced technology when crafting custom dentures for our patients, including “cosmetic dentures,” a specialized system that works to support the facial muscle structure, promote jawbone health, and makes it possible to avoid a “sunken” appearance. Whether you choose cosmetic dentures or traditional dentures at EDITION dental in Liberty Village, your comfort and quality of life – as well as an aesthetic smile – all matter to us. ![Affordable General Dentistry Toronto](https://editiondental.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/06/general-1-scaled-1.jpg) We welcome patients of all ages – from toddlers, to teenagers, to adults, to seniors. Maintaining a regular checkup schedule is the first step toward maintaining good health for your teeth and gums. Patients of all ages should have dental exams at least once per year for comprehensive treatment. Dental exams might also be conducted as needed to assess tooth pain, trauma, or further localized concerns that might develop between checkups. We’re passionate about helping you experience a beautiful and healthy smile. You can expect gentle and compassionate care with precision excellence. At EDITION, we have established our dental office to be exceptionally comfortable, welcoming, and pleasant. We want you to look forward to visiting us, and to be the dental office you trust for all of your oral health issues. ## YOUR SMILE IS YOUR SUPERPOWER. ## AT EDITION, WE LOVE TO SEE YOU SMILE. ![Preventative Dentistry Toronto](https://editiondental.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/06/general-2-scaled-1.jpg) ![Dental Care Near Me Toronto](https://editiondental.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/06/general-3-scaled-1.jpg) ![Best General Dentist Toronto](https://editiondental.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/06/promotion-banner-scaled.webp) ### $99 Teeth Cleaning IT’S A LIFESTYLE.

Preventative dentistry is a type of dental care that focuses on preventing dental problems and maintaining good oral health. This can be achieved through regular check-ups, cleanings, and at-home care. Here are some specific ways that preventative dentistry can help maintain good oral health: ### REGULAR DENTAL CHECK-UPS Visiting the dentist every six months allows the dentist to check for any issues that may not be visible or apparent to the patient. This includes checking for tooth decay, gum disease, and other problems. ### PROFESSIONAL TEETH CLEANINGS A professional cleaning by a dental hygienist can remove plaque and tartar that have accumulated on the teeth, which can cause tooth decay and gum disease. ### AT-HOME ORAL HYGIENE Good at-home oral hygiene, including brushing and flossing daily, can help prevent plaque build-up and maintain good oral health. ### IMPROVED APPEARANCE Preventative care can help maintain the appearance of the teeth and mouth, leading to a more attractive and confident smile. ![](https://editiondental.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/03/dr_ella_golrang.jpg)### DR.

The exact procedure of an emergency dentistry case differs for each person but some common things happen when you need this type of appointment. - The dentist will do an X-ray to see the extent of the damage or infection. - The dentist will try to restore the tooth, if possible. - You will be given a prescription for pain. - You may be prescribed antibiotics if you have an infection or to prevent infection. - A follow-up visit will be made for a time during normal business hours. ## You Don't Have to Live With Mouth Pain ## Find Out How to Get an Emergency Dental Appointment at Edition We believe in prevention as much as response. Emergency dentistry is a response to an accident, injury, or infection. We can resolve your immediate issue when needed but love to prevent it in the first place. Mouth injuries in sports can be prevented with a sports mouth guard. We can customize one to fit you or your child’s mouth, even with braces! Getting regular dental cleanings twice a year will help prevent painful infections. The Edition team also offers deep-teeth cleaning for those with problematic plaque and tartar. A deep tooth cleaning removes bacteria below the gums, creating a healthier mouth and preventing gum disease and tooth decay. ![Toronto dental emergency services](https://editiondental.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/06/Rectangle-9.webp) ![Best General Dentist Toronto](https://editiondental.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/06/promotion-banner-scaled.webp) ### $99 Teeth Cleaning IT’S A LIFESTYLE.

Orthodontics is a branch of dentistry we offer that focuses on the correction of misaligned teeth and jaws. This is often done using braces or other orthodontic appliances, which apply gentle pressure to the teeth to gradually move them into their proper positions. Here is a general overview of our process of orthodontic treatment: ## 1 INITIAL CONSULTATION: The orthodontist will examine the patient’s teeth and jaw to determine the best course of treatment. This may include taking x- rays, photographs, and dental impressions. ## 2 TREATMENT PLANNING: The orthodontist will develop a customized treatment plan to address the patient’s specific needs and goals. ## 3 APPLIANCE PLACEMENT: The orthodontist will place the appropriate appliance (such as braces or a retainer) on the teeth to begin the orthodontic treatment process. ## 4 REGULAR ADJUSTMENTS: The patient will need to visit the orthodontist regularly for adjustments to the appliance, which will help move the teeth into their proper positions. ## 5 FINAL EVALUATION: After the teeth have been moved into their proper positions, the orthodontist will remove the appliance and evaluate the final results. --- ### [Cosmetic Dentistry](https://editiondental.com/cosmetic-dentistry/) **Published:** June 5, 2024 **Author:** Edition Dental **Content:** # COSMETIC DENTISTRY OPEN 7 DAYS A WEEK SAME DAY APPOINTMENTS HIGH QUALITY CARE DIRECT BILLING TO INSURANCE VENEERS Composite Bonding Crowns & Bridges Teeth Whitening Implants ## AT LAST – THE SMILE YOU WANT For many people, a bright beautiful smile doesn’t happen naturally. It comes about with help from a highly skilled cosmetic dentist. At EDITION dental, we can help you get the lovely, even, brilliant smile you envision for yourself. Not only are veneers a simple way to transform your smile, hide crooked teeth, remove unwanted spaces, chips, and stains, this highly popular cosmetic dental procedure provides patients with beautiful, natural results that can be life changing. No more feeling self-conscious about laughing, speaking, or posing for pictures, or worrying about hiding your teeth during important life moments. At EDITION dental, our cosmetic dentist will design the veneers in your first visit and place them in your second appointment (this may vary depending on treatment plan and number of veneers placed). Each set of veneers is custom manufactured to perfectly fit and to enhance your smile and face making them indistinguishable from your natural teeth. ## WHAT ARE VENEERS? Veneers are ultra-thin shells of enamel-like porcelain that are bonded directly to the front of your teeth. At EDITION dental, we design and customize your veneers to give you a beautiful and natural-looking smile. ## BENEFITS OF PORCELAIN VENEERS: - Strong and long-lasting - Strengthen teeth that have weakened over time due to trauma or extensive dental work - Have a natural-looking surface/extremely lifelike - Less tooth enamel needs to be removed than with a crown or cap - Stain-resistant - Function like your natural teeth ## DO MY TEETH HAVE TO BE SHAVED DOWN FOR VENEERS? Not every case requires your teeth to be shaved! In 90% of cases the teeth are prepared less than a millimeter. To shave as little as possible and conserve tooth structure, sometimes we will recommend minor orthodontic movement (Invisalign) prior to the procedure. The days of mowing teeth down to stubs in cosmetics is well behind us. ## HOW LONG WILL VENEERS LAST? Veneers need to be treated and cared for like natural teeth and they will last a long time (like maintaining a nice car). Rule of thumb anything that can break a natural tooth can break a veneer. A veneer should never just “come off” once bonded correctly. Life span is typically 15-20 years. ## HOW LONG DOES IT TAKE TO GET VENEERS? Veneers need to be treated and cared for like natural teeth and they will last a long time (like maintaining a nice car). Rule of thumb anything that can break a natural tooth can break a veneer. A veneer should never just “come off” once bonded correctly. Life span is typically 15-20 years. Also called composite veneers, at EDITION dental we offer cosmetic bonding for patients with minor imperfections such as chips, cracks, and gaps in their teeth. It is a simple and cost-effective procedure that involves applying a tooth-coloured composite resin to the affected area, which is then shaped and polished to match the natural look of your teeth. Bonding can be completed in just one appointment, and the results can last several years with proper care. ## WHAT ARE THE BENEFITS OF COMPOSITE BONDING? - Usually requires only one dental visit - Treat multiple cosmetic oral concerns with one treatment - Custom-made for you - Look and feel real - Should not require anesthesia - Safe for your teeth ## WHO IS A CANDIDATE FOR BONDING? At EDITION dental, your composite veneers will be custom created to fit comfortably over your teeth for an attractive and natural look. In your consultation, we will listen to your goals and concerns so our cosmetic dentist can personalize your treatment. Our dental team may also see whether you’re a good candidate for bonding by assessing the total health of your mouth. You should not have symptoms of gum disease or routinely clench your jaw and grind your teeth (called bruxism). We provide dental crowns and bridges made from the highest quality, ensuring they last longer and blend in seamlessly with the rest of your teeth. They are among the most common dental restoration treatments and can replace missing teeth or restore a tooth that has suffered trauma, decay, or has an unsightly appearance. At EDITION dental, we make certain that your smile is both beautiful and healthy through our comprehensive cosmetic dental services. Tooth crowns and dental bridges are just two of the many treatments we offer to make that possible. If you suffer from damaged or misshapen teeth, our dental crowns and bridges could be a great option for you. They are among the most common dental restoration treatments, replacing missing teeth or restoring teeth that have suffered from trauma, decay, and more. We provide the highest quality crowns and bridges in Liberty Village, using our expert training and knowledge to truly transform smiles. Our highly skilled cosmetic dentists make certain that our crowns and bridges blend seamlessly with the rest of your smile, giving you life-changing results and building your confidence. ## WHAT IS A CROWN? Tooth crowns are fixtures created by dentists to cover or ‘cap’ the portion of your tooth above the gums. They are used to reinforce the structure of a damaged, weak, or rotting tooth. This helps to restore the tooth’s natural function and to maintain its size, strength, shape, and appearance. Crowns are extremely important if you have decaying teeth, as you may need a root canal if left untreated. Further damage is thus prevented when placing a crown over a suffering tooth. Without a crown, the tooth is often unsalvageable. Crowns can also replace a missing tooth by being placed on top of a dental implant. ## WHAT IS A DENTAL BRIDGE? While crowns can repair damaged teeth, a bridge’s sole function is to permanently replace missing teeth. If a tooth or multiple teeth are missing, we can close – or bridge – the gaps in your smile using this procedure. The dental bridge is typically made of crowns on either side of the missing tooth or teeth. These crowns support the artificial tooth that is custom-made to fit the empty space. Lastly, the false tooth is cemented in place to give you a flawless, long-lasting smile. Do you think you’re a candidate for dental crowns or bridges? Contact EDITION dental to schedule a consultation to discuss your options and we will walk you through the complete process of transforming your smile. ## ZOOM!® ZOOM!® has been widely recognized as one of the leading in-office whitening systems and is ideal for anyone who wants immediate results.

If not properly removed through regular brushing, flossing, and professional dental cleanings, plaque hardens into tartar, leading to gum inflammation and the development of periodontal disease. ## STAGES OF PERIODONTAL DISEASE: - Red, swollen, or tender gums - Bleeding gums during brushing or flossing - Receding gums or longer-looking teeth - Persistent bad breath or a bad taste in the mouth - Loose or shifting teeth - Changes in the way your teeth fit together when biting - Pus between the teeth and gums - Changes in the fit of dentures or partial dentures **GINGIVITIS:** Gingivitis is the initial stage of periodontal disease. It is characterized by red, swollen, and bleeding gums. At this stage, the damage is reversible with proper oral hygiene and professional dental care. **PERIODONTITIS:** If left untreated, gingivitis can progress to periodontitis. This stage involves the inflammation and infection of the gums, leading to the breakdown of the gum tissue and the supporting structures, including the bone that holds the teeth in place. As a result, the gums may recede, creating spaces or pockets between the gums and teeth. **ADVANCED PERIODONTITIS:** In the advanced stage of periodontal disease, the gum pockets become deeper, allowing bacteria to invade further and cause even more damage. Teeth may become loose, and tooth loss may occur. ## PREVENTION & TREATMENT OF PERIODONTAL DISEASE: ## PREVENTION: - Maintain a regular oral hygiene routine, including brushing twice a day and flossing daily. - Visit your dentist for professional dental cleanings and check-ups at least twice a year. - Quit smoking or using tobacco products, as they increase the risk of gum disease. - Eat a balanced diet and limit sugary snacks and beverages. - Use antimicrobial mouth rinses as recommended by your dentist. ## TREATMENT: **SCALING & ROOT PLANING:** This deep cleaning procedure involves removing plaque and tartar from above and below the gumline and smoothing the tooth roots to promote gum reattachment. **PERIODONTAL MAINTENANCE**: Regular periodontal maintenance visits are essential to monitor the health of your gums and prevent the progression of periodontal disease. These visits typically include professional cleanings, gum pocket measurements, and oral health assessments. **SURGICAL PROCEDURES:** In advanced cases, surgical interventions may be necessary to remove tartar, reduce pocket depth, regenerate bone or gum tissue, or place dental implants for tooth replacement. **ONGOING HOME CARE:** Proper oral hygiene practices, including brushing, flossing, and using antimicrobial mouth rinses as recommended, are crucial for managing and preventing periodontal disease. At **EDITION** dental, we are committed to helping you maintain healthy gums and prevent or treat periodontal disease. Our dental team is experienced in the diagnosis and management of periodontal conditions, utilizing advanced techniques and technologies to provide personalized care. If you have any questions or concerns about periodontal disease or would like to schedule an appointment, please contact our office. We are here to support you on your journey toward optimal oral health and a beautiful smile. ## WHAT IS PRE-PROSTHETIC SURGERY? Pre-prosthetic surgery refers to a variety of dental procedures performed to enhance the oral structures and create an optimal foundation for the placement of dental prosthetics. These surgical interventions are typically recommended when a patient requires dental prostheses such as dentures or dental implants but lacks the ideal conditions for their successful placement. Pre-prosthetic surgery aims to address any anatomical irregularities, provide adequate support and stability, and optimize the fit, function, and aesthetics of the dental prosthetics. ## COMMON PRE-PROSTHETIC SURGICAL PROCEDURES: **BONE GRAFTING:** Bone grafting involves adding bone or bone-like materials to areas with insufficient bone volume or density. This procedure helps restore bone mass and strength, providing a solid foundation for dental implants or dentures. **RIDGE AUGMENTATION:** Ridge augmentation is performed to rebuild or reshape the alveolar ridge (the bony ridge that supports the teeth). It helps correct deformities, defects, or irregularities in the ridge, creating a more favorable environment for prosthetic placement. **SINUS LIFT:** A sinus lift, also known as sinus augmentation, is a procedure that involves adding bone to the upper jaw in the area of the molars and premolars. It is performed when there is insufficient bone height to support dental implants in the posterior upper jaw. **SOFT TISSUE GRAFTING:** Soft tissue grafting, also known as gum grafting, is performed to restore or enhance the gum tissue around teeth or dental implants. It helps improve aesthetics, reduce tooth sensitivity, and provide adequate support for dental prosthetics ## BENEFITS OF PRE-PROSTHETIC SURGERY: **IMPROVED STABILITY:** Pre-prosthetic surgery creates a stable foundation for dental prosthetics, ensuring a secure and comfortable fit. This enhances the stability and functionality of dentures or dental implants. **ENHANCED AESTHETICS:** Surgical interventions can improve the aesthetics of the gums, jawbone, and surrounding soft tissues, creating a more natural and appealing smile. **OPTIMAL PROSTHETIC FIT:** By addressing anatomical irregularities and providing adequate support, pre-prosthetic surgery helps ensure a proper fit and alignment of dental prosthetics, maximizing their effectiveness and longevity. **LONG-TERM SUCCESS:** Pre-prosthetic surgery sets the stage for successful and durable dental prosthetic treatment, enhancing the overall outcome and longevity of your dental restorations. At **EDITION** dental, we are dedicated to providing comprehensive care, including pre-prosthetic surgery, to help you achieve optimal oral health and the best possible results with your dental prosthetics. Our experienced team utilizes advanced techniques and technologies to deliver personalized treatment plans tailored to your specific needs. If you have any questions or would like to schedule a consultation to discuss pre-prosthetic surgery options, please contact our office. We are here to guide you through the process and ensure a comfortable and successful experience with your dental prosthetics. ## WHAT IS GINGIVAL (GUM) GRAFTING? Gingival grafting, also known as gum grafting, is a surgical procedure performed to correct gum recession, improve gum health, and enhance the appearance of your smile. Gum recession occurs when the gum tissue surrounding the teeth pulls back, exposing the tooth roots and potentially leading to tooth sensitivity, increased risk of decay, and compromised aesthetics. Gingival grafting involves taking gum tissue from one area of the mouth (the donor site) and placing it in the affected area (the recipient site) to restore and cover the exposed root surfaces. ## THE GINGIVAL GRAFTING PROCESS: **EVALUATION & TREATMENT PLANNING:** Our experienced dentist will conduct a thorough examination of your gums and assess the extent of gum recession. We will discuss your concerns and goals to determine the most appropriate grafting technique and identify the most suitable donor site for your specific needs. **DONOR TISSUE SELECTION:** The donor tissue for gingival grafting can come from different sources, including the roof of your mouth (palate), adjacent gums, or processed donor tissue (allografts). Our dental team will discuss the options with you and select the most suitable donor tissue for your situation. **GRAFT PLACEMENT:** During the procedure, the graft tissue is carefully positioned over the exposed root surfaces and secured in place with sutures or tissue adhesive. The graft acts as a protective barrier and encourages the growth of new gum tissue, restoring proper gum coverage and promoting healing. **HEALING & INTEGRATION:** Over time, the graft tissue integrates with the existing gum tissue, providing a healthy and natural-looking gumline. As healing progresses, the grafted tissue becomes part of your own gum tissue, providing improved aesthetics, reducing tooth sensitivity, and protecting the underlying tooth structure. ## BENEFITS OF GINGIVAL (GUM) GRAFTING: **RESTORED GUM HEALTH:** Gingival grafting addresses gum recession, protecting the exposed tooth roots and reducing the risk of decay, sensitivity, and gum disease. **IMPROVED AESTHETICS:** The procedure enhances the appearance of your smile by restoring a more even and symmetrical gumline. It can provide a natural and attractive frame for your teeth, boosting your overall smile aesthetics. **REDUCED TOOTH SENSITIVITY:** Gingival grafting covers the exposed tooth roots, reducing sensitivity to hot or cold temperatures and making eating and drinking more comfortable. **PROTECTION AGAINST FURTHER RECESSION:** By restoring and thickening the gum tissue, gingival grafting helps prevent future gum recession and maintains the health and stability of your gums. **PRESERVED TOOTH STRUCTURE:** Gum recession can lead to the loss of tooth structure and compromise the stability of your teeth. Gingival grafting helps preserve the integrity of the teeth by protecting the roots and underlying structures. At **EDITION** dental, we are dedicated to providing comprehensive care, including gingival grafting, to help you achieve optimal gum health and a confident smile. Our experienced team utilizes advanced techniques and technologies to deliver personalized treatment plans tailored to your specific needs. If you have any questions or would like to schedule a consultation to discuss gingival grafting options, please contact our office. We are here to guide you through the process and ensure a comfortable and successful experience with your gum grafting procedure. ## WHAT IS A FRENECTOMY? A frenectomy is a minor surgical procedure that involves the removal or alteration of the frenulum, a small band of tissue that connects the lips, cheeks, or tongue to the surrounding oral structures. There are two primary types of frenectomy: labial frenectomy, which addresses the frenulum between the upper or lower lip and the gum tissue, and lingual frenectomy, which addresses the frenulum under the tongue. ## REASONS FOR FRENECTOMY: **ANKYLOGLOSSIA (TONGUE TIE):** Tongue tie is a condition where the lingual frenulum is abnormally short or tight, restricting the movement of the tongue. This can affect speech, feeding in infants, and oral hygiene. **FRENUM PULL OR DIASTEMA:** In some cases, an overactive or thick labial frenulum can cause a gap or space between the front teeth, known as a diastema. Frenectomy can help correct this issue and promote proper alignment of the teeth. **DENTURE STABILITY:** Frenectomy may be recommended in preparation for denture placement to enhance stability and prevent denture movement caused by the frenulum. ## THE FRENECTOMY PROCESS: **EVALUATION & DIAGNOSIS:** Our experienced dentist will conduct a thorough examination to determine if a frenectomy is necessary. This may involve assessing the appearance and functionality of the frenulum, evaluating oral health, and discussing any symptoms or concerns you may have. **ANESTHESIA:** Frenectomy procedures can be performed under local anesthesia to numb the area being treated, ensuring your comfort throughout the procedure. **FRENECTOMY PROCEDURE:** Using precise techniques, our dental team will carefully remove or modify the frenulum. This can be achieved through various methods, including surgical excision, laser treatment, or electrocautery. The specific technique used will depend on the individual case and the dentist’s expertise. **HEALING & AFTERCARE:** After the frenectomy procedure, you will be provided with post-operative instructions to promote proper healing. These instructions may include guidelines on oral hygiene, diet, pain management, and follow-up appointments to monitor your recovery. ## BENEFITS OF FRENECTOMY: **IMPROVED TONGUE MOBILITY:** Frenectomy can address ankyloglossia, allowing for improved tongue movement and enhanced speech, swallowing, and oral hygiene. **DIASTEMA CLOSURE:** Frenectomy can help close gaps between the front teeth, improving their alignment and aesthetic appearance. **ENHANCED DENTURE STABILITY:** Frenectomy can create a stable foundation for dentures by reducing the potential for frenulum-related movement or discomfort. **PREVENTION OF FUTURE ISSUES:** Frenectomy can help prevent complications associated with an abnormally positioned or restrictive frenulum, such as speech difficulties or dental problems. At **EDITION** dental, we are committed to providing comprehensive care, including frenectomy procedures, to help you achieve optimal oral health and function. Our experienced team utilizes advanced techniques and technologies to deliver personalized treatment plans tailored to your specific needs. If you have any questions or would like to schedule a consultation to discuss frenectomy options, please contact our office. We are here to guide you through the process and ensure a comfortable and successful experience with your frenectomy procedure. ## WHAT IS A GINGIVECTOMY? Gingivectomy is a surgical procedure performed to remove excess gum tissue and reshape the gumline. This procedure is commonly used to treat gum disease, correct gum overgrowth (hypertrophy), and enhance the overall appearance of your smile. Gingivectomy is often performed in cases where non-surgical treatments, such as scaling and root planing, have not effectively resolved the gum issues. ## REASONS FOR GINGIVECTOMY: **GUM DISEASE:** Gingivectomy may be recommended as part of periodontal therapy for treating advanced gum disease. Removing infected or damaged gum tissue allows for improved access to clean and maintain the gum pockets, promoting gum health. **COSMETIC CONCERNS:** Excessive gum tissue can create a “gummy” smile or make the teeth appear shorter. Gingivectomy can remove the excess gum tissue, exposing more of the tooth structure and creating a more balanced and aesthetically pleasing smile. **CROWN LENGTHENING:** Gingivectomy can also be performed in cases where there is insufficient tooth structure exposed for the placement of dental crowns or other restorations. By removing gum tissue, the tooth can be exposed to provide a better foundation for restorative treatment. ## THE GINGIVECTOMY PROCESS: **EXAMINATION & TREATMENT PLANNING:** Our experienced dentist will conduct a comprehensive examination of your gums, evaluate your oral health, and discuss your concerns and treatment goals. This will help determine the most appropriate approach for your gingivectomy procedure. **ANESTHESIA:** Gingivectomy procedures can be performed under local anesthesia to numb the area being treated, ensuring your comfort throughout the procedure. **GINGIVECTOMY PROCEDURE:** Using precise techniques, our dental team will carefully remove the excess gum tissue, sculpting the gumline to create a more balanced and healthy appearance. The procedure may involve traditional surgical instruments or laser technology, depending on the specific case and the dentist’s expertise. **HEALING & AFTERCARE:** After the gingivectomy procedure, you will be provided with post-operative instructions to promote proper healing. These instructions may include guidelines on oral hygiene, diet, pain management, and follow-up appointments to monitor your recovery. ## BENEFITS OF GINGIVECTOMY: **IMPROVED GUM HEALTH:** Gingivectomy can remove infected or damaged gum tissue, promoting gum health and reducing the risk of gum disease progression. **AESTHETIC ENHANCEMENT:** Gingivectomy can create a more balanced gumline, reducing the appearance of a “gummy” smile and enhancing the overall aesthetics of your smile. **CROWN LENGTHENING:** By removing excess gum tissue, gingivectomy can expose more tooth structure, allowing for the placement of dental crowns or other restorations. **INCREASED CONFIDENCE:** A well-proportioned and healthy gumline can boost your confidence and make you feel more comfortable with your smile. At **EDITION** dental, we are dedicated to providing comprehensive care, including gingivectomy procedures, to help you achieve optimal gum health and a confident smile. Our experienced team utilizes advanced techniques and technologies to deliver personalized treatment plans tailored to your specific needs. If you have any questions or would like to schedule a consultation to discuss gingivectomy options, please contact our office. We are here to guide you through the process and ensure a comfortable and successful experience with your gingivectomy procedure. ## WHAT IS CROWN LENGTHENING? Crown lengthening is a surgical procedure performed to expose more of the tooth structure by reshaping the gumline and, if necessary, removing a small amount of bone. This procedure is commonly used to address a variety of dental concerns, such as excessive gum tissue, tooth decay beneath the gumline, or the need for a stronger foundation for dental restorations. ## REASONS FOR CROWN LENGTHENING: **EXCESSIVE GUM TISSUE:** Some individuals have a naturally “gummy” smile, where the gums cover a significant portion of the teeth. Crown lengthening can remove the excess gum tissue and reveal more of the tooth surface, creating a more balanced and aesthetically pleasing smile. **TOOTH DECAY OR FRACTURE:** In cases where tooth decay or fracture extends beneath the gumline, crown lengthening may be necessary to expose the affected area. This allows for proper cleaning, treatment, and restoration of the tooth. **RESTORATIVE DENTISTRY:** Crown lengthening may be performed to provide a stronger foundation for the placement of dental crowns, bridges, or veneers. By exposing more of the tooth structure, crown lengthening ensures a secure and durable bond between the restorations and the tooth. ## THE CROWN LENGTHENING PROCESS: **EVALUATION & TREATMENT PLANNING:** Our experienced dentist will conduct a comprehensive examination of your oral health, assess your concerns and treatment goals, and determine the most appropriate approach for your crown lengthening procedure. **ANESTHESIA:** Crown lengthening procedures can be performed under local anesthesia to numb the area being treated, ensuring your comfort throughout the procedure. **CROWN LENGTHENING PROCEDURE:** Using precise techniques, our dental team will carefully reshape the gum tissue and, if necessary, remove a small amount of bone to expose more of the tooth structure. The procedure may involve traditional surgical instruments or laser technology, depending on the specific case and the dentist’s expertise. **HEALING & AFTERCARE:** After the crown lengthening procedure, you will be provided with post-operative instructions to promote proper healing. These instructions may include guidelines on oral hygiene, diet, pain management, and follow-up appointments to monitor your recovery. ## BENEFITS OF CROWN LENGTHENING: **ENHANCED AESTHETICS:** Crown lengthening can create a more balanced gumline, reducing the appearance of a “gummy” smile and enhancing the overall aesthetics of your smile. **IMPROVED ORAL HEALTH:** By exposing more of the tooth structure, crown lengthening allows for better access for oral hygiene practices, reducing the risk of decay and gum disease. **STRONGER FOUNDATION FOR RESTORATIONS:** Crown lengthening provides a stable and reliable foundation for dental restorations such as crowns, bridges, or veneers, ensuring a secure and durable bond between the restoration and the tooth. **CUSTOMIZED TREATMENT:** Crown lengthening is a highly customizable procedure, tailored to address your specific concerns and treatment goals. At **EDITION** dental, we are dedicated to providing comprehensive care, including crown lengthening procedures, to help you achieve optimal oral health and a confident smile. Our experienced team utilizes advanced techniques and technologies to deliver personalized treatment plans tailored to your specific needs. If you have any questions or would like to schedule a consultation to discuss crown lengthening options, please contact our office. We are here to guide you through the process and ensure a comfortable and successful experience with your crown lengthening procedure. ![](https://editiondental.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/06/Periodontics2-scaled-1.jpg) The best way to reduce your risk of having gum disease is to visit your dentist on a regular basis for check-ups and cleanings. Gum disease is an inflammatory condition that affects supporting soft tissue and bone around the teeth. Although many times there is only minimal or no symptoms, this disease is considered to be a serious health condition that if not treated can lead to tooth loss. It occurs as a result of your body’s immune response against toxins produced by bacteria that live on your teeth and gums. Increasing research evidence over the last two decades has suggested positive associations between gum inflammation and several important systemic diseases such as diabetes, cardiovascular diseases, atherosclerosis, myocardial infarction and stroke. Therefore, proper diagnosis and treatment of gum disease may not only benefit your oral health, but may also play a positive role in your overall systemic health. If you have any questions or concerns about periodontal disease or would like to schedule an appointment, please contact our office. We are here to support you on your journey toward optimal oral health and a beautiful smile. ## WELCOME TO EDITION DENTAL PERIODONTICS! ## TREATMENT OF GUM DISEASE MAY NOT ONLY BENEFIT YOUR ORAL HEALTH, BUT ALSO YOUR SYSTEMIC HEALTH. ![](https://editiondental.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/06/Periodontics-3-scaled-1.jpg) ![](https://editiondental.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/06/Periodontics-4-scaled-1.jpg) ## HOW CAN EDITION HELP?

Sudden dental emergencies could be due to a sports injury, traumatic accident, or biting into hard foods. Our highly skilled dental professionals at EDITION dental, offer swift emergency dentistry in a caring atmosphere. We can effectively treat many kinds of serious dental concerns for Liberty Village patients, such as lost fillings, oral discomfort, and knocked-out (avulsed) or chipped teeth. Oral trauma won’t necessarily trigger pain right away, meaning it’s very important to get your teeth looked at for any unknown damage. At EDITION dental, we make every effort to offer emergency treatment as quickly as possible. ## WHAT ARE VENEERS? - Capable of providing the same strength, durability and function to traditional braces - Blend in with your tooth enamel and becomes less noticeable in appearance When you think of braces, traditional metal braces might be what you imagine. Metal braces use brackets and wires to gently shift your teeth over time. Each bracket is carefully bonded (glued) on each tooth and then a wire is placed into each bracket slot. Over time, they gradually realign teeth into a more ideal position, and brief tightening appointments are done about every two months. Patients may experience some tenderness after their new braces are attached, but this usually stops after a few days. You can decorate your braces with any colour you wish and change it at every appointment. Whichever option you choose, we will make sure you get the smile of your dreams at EDITION dental! ## INVISALIGN® ## HOW DOES INVISALIGN® ORTHODONTIC TREATMENT WORK? Using advanced 3D computer-imaging technology to create a digital model of your teeth, we will create a plan that will ultimately lead to your perfect smile. You will receive a series of aligners and will be asked to wear each set for about 7-14 days, removing them only to eat, drink, brush, and floss. As you replace each aligner with the next in the series, your teeth will gradually move until they have straightened to their final position. You will visit us about once every 3 months to ensure that your treatment is progressing as planned. ## BENEFITS OF INVISALIGN® Invisalign® aligners can help straighten your teeth and prevent oral health issues down the road with specially made clear trays. Benefits of Invisalign® treatment at EDITION dental include: - Less noticeable than braces (small, tooth coloured attachments will need to be bonded to certain teeth to achieve maximal success, they are not completely invisible but are much less visible than braces and will be removed at the conclusion of your treatment). - Trays can be taken out to eat and perform other activities - No restrictions on beverages and foods - Ability to brush and floss in a regular manner - Invisalign® aligners are fabricated specifically for you - Improving confidence and obtaining a more aesthetically pleasing smile ## INVISALIGN® FOR ALL AGES Invisalign® is a treatment option that is frequently sought by adults and has become extremely popular amongst teenagers. Invisalign Teen® achieves beautiful results in younger patients without interfering with their lifestyle. They are able to eat whatever they want, brush and floss with ease, and play sports without any hardware getting in the way! ## TIPS FOR SUCCESS You will be provided ‘chewies’ that we recommend using 5-10 minutes per day to help improve the seating of your aligners. Chewies essentially make your aligners fit better, which helps your teeth move more predictably during treatment. Additionally, wearing your aligners extremely well at more than 22 hours per day is a great way to ensure that your teeth move well.

Wisdom teeth, also known as third molars, are the last set of molars to emerge at the back of your mouth. They typically develop and erupt between the ages of 17 and 25. While some people have no issues with their wisdom teeth, others may experience various problems due to factors such as lack of space in the jaw or the teeth erupting at an angle. ## REASONS FOR WISDOM TEETH REMOVAL: **IMPACTED WISDOM TEETH:** Impacted wisdom teeth occur when the teeth do not have enough space to fully emerge or develop normally. They may remain partially or completely trapped within the gum tissue or jawbone, leading to pain, swelling, infection, or damage to neighboring teeth. **CROWDING:** Wisdom teeth can cause overcrowding in the mouth, pushing against adjacent teeth and disrupting the alignment of your existing teeth. **TOOTH DECAY & GUM DISEASE:** Due to their location at the back of the mouth, wisdom teeth are more challenging to clean properly. As a result, they are more prone to tooth decay (cavities) and gum disease, which can affect not only the wisdom teeth but also the neighboring teeth. **CYSTS OR TUMORS:** In some cases, cysts or tumors can develop around impacted wisdom teeth, causing damage to the jawbone, teeth, and nerves ## THE WISDOM TOOTH REMOVAL PROCESS: **EXAMINATION & X-RAYS:** Our dentist will conduct a thorough examination of your mouth and take X-rays to evaluate the position, orientation, and condition of your wisdom teeth. This will help determine if removal is necessary and the most appropriate approach for the procedure. **ANESTHESIA:** Wisdom tooth removal can be performed under local anesthesia to numb the area around the tooth or under general anesthesia to ensure you are asleep and comfortable throughout the procedure. The choice of anesthesia will be discussed with you based on your needs and preferences. **TOOTH EXTRACTION:** If your wisdom teeth have fully erupted, a straightforward extraction can be performed. The dentist will gently loosen the tooth and remove it using specialized dental instruments. In the case of impacted wisdom teeth, a small incision may be made in the gum tissue to access and remove the tooth. **STITCHING & HEALING:** Following the extraction, stitches may be placed to close the incision and promote proper healing. You will be provided with detailed post-operative instructions on how to care for the extraction site, manage any discomfort or swelling, and promote a smooth recovery. ## RECOVERY & AFTERCARE: Recovery from wisdom tooth removal typically takes a few days to a week. During this time, it is essential to follow the post-operative instructions provided by our dental team. These instructions may include guidelines on oral hygiene, pain management, diet, and follow-up appointments to monitor your healing progress. ## BENEFITS OF WISDOM TOOTH REMOVAL: **PAIN RELIEF:** Wisdom tooth removal can alleviate the pain and discomfort associated with impacted or problematic wisdom teeth. **PREVENTING DENTAL ISSUES:** By removing wisdom teeth before they cause problems, you can avoid potential complications such as tooth decay, gum disease, misalignment, and damage to adjacent teeth. **IMPROVED ORAL HEALTH:** Wisdom tooth removal contributes to better overall oral health, making it easier to maintain proper oral hygiene and reducing the risk of future dental issues. **PREVENTING INFECTIONS & COMPLICATIONS:** Removing impacted wisdom teeth can prevent infections, cysts, tumors, and other potential complications from developing in the surrounding tissues. At **EDITION** dental, we are dedicated to providing safe and comfortable wisdom tooth removal procedures. Our experienced team will guide you through every step of the process, ensuring that your treatment is personalized to meet your specific needs. If you have any questions or would like to schedule a consultation, please contact our office. We are here to assist you in achieving optimal oral health and a pain-free smile through wisdom tooth removal. ## WHAT IS BONE GRAFTING? Bone grafting, also known as hard tissue grafting, is a procedure that involves adding bone or bone-like materials to your jawbone. This technique is commonly used to restore bone volume and density, which may have been lost due to factors such as tooth extraction, gum disease, or trauma. ## THE BONE GRAFTING PROCESS: **ASSESSMENT:** Our experienced dentist will evaluate your dental and medical history, perform a thorough examination, and assess the condition of your jawbone using diagnostic imaging techniques such as X-rays or CT scans. **GRAFTING MATERIAL SELECTION:** Depending on your specific needs, different grafting materials may be considered. These can include your own bone (autograft), donor bone from another source (allograft), synthetic bone substitutes, or a combination of these materials. Our dentist will discuss the most suitable option for you. **GRAFT PLACEMENT:** During the procedure, the grafting material is placed in the targeted area of the jawbone. It is carefully positioned and secured to promote new bone growth. In some cases, a membrane or barrier may be used to protect the graft and enhance its effectiveness. **HEALING AND INTEGRATION:** Over time, the graft material serves as a scaffold for new bone cells to grow and integrate. The healing process can take several months, during which the graft fuses with your natural bone, resulting in a stronger and more stable foundation for dental restorations or implants. ## BENEFITS OF BONE GRAFTING: **IMPROVED DENTAL IMPLANT SUCCESS:** Dental implants require sufficient bone density and volume for successful placement and long-term stability. Hard tissue grafting ensures that there is an adequate foundation to support dental implants. **RESTORED FACIAL AESTHETICS:** Bone loss in the jaw can cause a sunken or aged appearance. Hard tissue grafting helps preserve facial structure, providing a more youthful and natural facial contour. **ENHANCED DENTURE STABILITY:** Dentures rely on a well-supported jawbone for stability. Hard tissue grafting can provide a secure foundation for dentures, preventing slippage or discomfort. **PRESERVATION OF ADJACENT TEETH:** Bone loss can affect the neighboring teeth, leading to potential oral health issues. Hard tissue grafting helps maintain the integrity of the surrounding teeth, reducing the risk of additional tooth loss. ## REASONS FOR DENTAL EXTRACTIONS: **SEVERE TOOTH DECAY:** When a tooth is severely decayed or damaged, it may not be salvageable through restorative treatments such as fillings or root canal therapy. In such cases, a dental extraction may be necessary to prevent the spread of infection and protect the health of surrounding teeth. **DENTAL INFECTION OR ABSCESS:** If a tooth infection or abscess is left untreated, it can lead to severe pain, swelling, and even systemic health issues. Dental extraction may be recommended to eliminate the source of infection and prevent its spread to other areas. **OVERCROWDING:** In some cases, dental extractions are performed as part of orthodontic treatment. Removing a tooth can create space to align the remaining teeth properly and improve overall bite alignment. **WISDOM TEETH:** Wisdom teeth, also known as third molars, often require extraction due to their potential for complications. These teeth may be impacted, partially erupted, or causing crowding, pain, or damage to neighboring teeth. ## THE DENTAL EXTRACTION PROCESS: **EXAMINATION & X-RAYS:** Our dentist will conduct a thorough examination of your mouth and take X-rays to assess the condition of the tooth, its position, and its roots. This evaluation helps determine the most appropriate approach for the extraction procedure. **ANESTHESIA:** Dental extractions can be performed under local anesthesia to numb the area surrounding the tooth or under general anesthesia if multiple teeth are being extracted or for patients with dental anxiety or special needs. The choice of anesthesia will be discussed with you based on your needs and preferences. **TOOTH EXTRACTION:** During the extraction procedure, the tooth is gently loosened and carefully removed from its socket using specialized dental instruments. In some cases, a small incision may be necessary to access the tooth. Our dental team will ensure your comfort throughout the procedure. **AFTERCARE:** Following the extraction, you will be provided with detailed post-operative instructions. These instructions may include guidelines on oral hygiene, pain management, diet, and follow-up appointments to monitor your healing progress. **RECOVERY & AFTERCARE:** Recovery from a dental extraction usually takes a few days to a week. It is important to follow the post-operative instructions provided by our dental team to promote proper healing and minimize any discomfort or swelling. This may involve gently rinsing your mouth, avoiding certain foods, taking prescribed medications, and attending follow-up appointments as necessary. ## BENEFITS OF DENTAL EXTRACTIONS: **ELIMINATION OF PAIN & INFECTION:** Dental extractions relieve pain and remove the source of infection or decay, improving your overall oral health and well-being. **PREVENTING COMPLICATIONS:** Extracting problematic teeth can prevent the spread of infection, abscesses, cysts, and other potential complications to adjacent teeth or other parts of the mouth. **ORTHODONTIC TREATMENT:** Dental extractions may be recommended as part of orthodontic treatment to create space and achieve proper alignment of the remaining teeth. **ENHANCED ORAL HEALTH:** Removing severely decayed or infected teeth helps maintain the health and integrity of surrounding teeth and gums. At **EDITION** dental, we are committed to providing safe and comfortable dental extraction procedures. Our experienced team will guide you through every step of the process, ensuring that your treatment is personalized to meet your specific needs. If you have any questions or would like to schedule a consultation, please contact our office. We are here to assist you in achieving optimal oral health and a pain-free smile through dental extractions. ## WHAT IS ALVEOLAR RIDGE PRESERVATION? Alveolar ridge preservation is a dental procedure performed immediately after tooth extraction to minimize the loss of bone volume and maintain the natural contours of the jawbone. When a tooth is removed, the underlying alveolar ridge, which supports the tooth, can undergo resorption or shrinkage over time. Alveolar ridge preservation aims to prevent this bone loss, providing a stable foundation for future dental restorations such as dental implants. ## THE ALVEOLAR RIDGE PRESERVATION PROCESS: **EXTRACTION & SOCKET PRESERVATION:** The process begins with the careful extraction of the tooth. After the extraction, the socket, which is the space left in the jawbone, is thoroughly cleaned and prepared for the preservation procedure. **GRAFTING MATERIAL PLACEMENT:** A grafting material, such as bone grafts or synthetic materials, is placed into the socket to fill the empty space and promote bone regeneration. The grafting material serves as a scaffold for new bone cells to grow, preserving the height and width of the alveolar ridge. **MEMBRANE PLACEMENT (IF APPLICABLE):** In some cases, a membrane or barrier may be placed over the grafting material to protect it and enhance its effectiveness. The membrane prevents soft tissue from invading the socket, allowing for undisturbed bone regeneration. **HEALING & INTEGRATION:** Over time, the grafting material and the surrounding bone integrate, forming new bone tissue in the socket. This process, known as osseointegration, helps maintain the volume and contours of the alveolar ridge. ## BENEFITS OF ALVEOLAR RIDGE PRESERVATION: **PRESERVATION OF BONE VOLUME:** Alveolar ridge preservation minimizes the loss of bone volume that occurs after tooth extraction, maintaining the natural shape and density of the jawbone. **IMPROVED AESTHETICS:** By preserving the alveolar ridge, the procedure helps maintain the natural contours of your gums and jaw, ensuring a harmonious and aesthetic appearance. **ENHANCED IMPLANT SUCCESS:** Alveolar ridge preservation creates a more favorable environment for future dental implant placement by providing sufficient bone volume and stability. **REDUCES TREATMENT COMPLEXITY:** By preserving the alveolar ridge, the need for additional bone grafting procedures or complex treatments in the future may be minimized, saving you time and potential discomfort. **PRESERVES FACIAL STRUCTURE:** Maintaining the integrity of the alveolar ridge helps preserve your facial structure and prevent the sunken or aged appearance that can occur with bone loss. At **EDITION** dental, we prioritize the long-term oral health and satisfaction of our patients. Alveolar ridge preservation is one of the many advanced techniques we employ to ensure optimal outcomes and provide a solid foundation for your future dental treatments, including dental implants. If you have any questions or would like to schedule a consultation, please contact our office. Our experienced dental team is here to guide you through the alveolar ridge preservation process and help you achieve a healthy and confident smile. ![Oral Surgery Clinic Toronto](https://editiondental.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/06/oral-1-scaled-1.jpg) Impacted or poorly positioned wisdom teeth can cause many issues. When they are partially erupted, the opening around the teeth allows bacteria to grow and will eventually cause an infection. The result: swelling, stiffness, pain, and illness. The pressure from the erupting wisdom teeth may move other teeth and disrupt the orthodontic or natural alignment of teeth. The most serious problem occurs when tumors or cysts form around the impacted wisdom teeth, resulting in the destruction of the jawbone and healthy teeth. Early removal is recommended to avoid such future problems and to decrease the surgical risk involved with the procedure. At EDITION dental, we are committed to providing safe and comfortable dental extraction procedures. Our experienced team will guide you through every step of the process, ensuring that your treatment is personalized to meet your specific needs. If you have any questions or would like to schedule a consultation, please contact our office. We are here to assist you in achieving optimal oral health and a pain-free smile through dental extractions. ## WELCOME TO EDITION DENTAL ORAL SURGERY! ## BUILDING COMFORT AND CONFIDENCE. ![Affordable Oral Surgery Toronto](https://editiondental.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/06/oral-surgery-3-scaled-1.jpg) ![Oral Surgery Specialist Toronto](https://editiondental.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/06/oral-2-scaled-1.jpg) Dental emergencies can happen at any time.

All-on-4 is a revolutionary dental implant technique designed to replace an entire arch (upper or lower jaw) of missing teeth with just four strategically placed dental implants. This advanced treatment concept provides a fixed and permanent set of teeth, offering exceptional stability, functionality, and aesthetics. ## THE ALL-ON-4 PROCESS: **INITIAL CONSULTATION:** During your first visit, our experienced dentist will conduct a comprehensive examination of your oral health. This may include taking impressions, X-rays, or 3D scans to assess your bone density and determine if you are a suitable candidate for All-on-4. **TREATMENT PLANNING:** Based on the examination results, our dental team will develop a personalized treatment plan tailored to your specific needs. This plan considers factors such as your bone condition, overall oral health, and desired outcome. **IMPLANT PLACEMENT:** In the next phase, four dental implants will be strategically positioned in your jawbone. The implants are made of biocompatible titanium, which fuses with the bone in a process called osseointegration. This provides a stable foundation for the final restoration. **TEMPORARY TEETH:** To ensure you leave our office with a functional and aesthetic smile, a temporary set of teeth will be attached to the implants on the same day of the surgery. These temporary teeth allow you to resume regular activities while your implants heal and integrate with the jawbone. **FINAL RESTORATION:** After the healing period, typically a few months, the final set of custom-made permanent teeth will be fabricated. These teeth are designed to look and function like natural teeth, providing an attractive, functional, and durable solution for full-arch tooth replacement. ## BENEFITS OF ALL-ON-4: **IMMEDIATE FUNCTION:** With All-on-4, you can have a functional set of teeth attached to the implants on the same day of the surgery, minimizing downtime and allowing you to resume your daily activities with confidence. **STABLE & SECURE:** All-on-4 provides exceptional stability and prevents slippage or movement of the prosthesis, ensuring a secure and comfortable fit. **IMPROVED CHEWING & SPEAKING:** All-on-4 allows you to enjoy a wide variety of foods and speak with clarity, restoring your ability to eat and communicate with confidence. **AESTHETICS:** The final restoration is customized to match your natural teeth in shape, size, and color, resulting in a beautiful and natural-looking smile. **BONE PRESERVATION:** All-on-4 implants help stimulate the jawbone, preventing further bone loss and preserving your facial structure. **SIMPLIFIED TREATMENT:** All-on-4 reduces the number of implants required compared to traditional full-arch implant procedures, making it a more streamlined and cost-effective solution. ## IS ALL-ON-4 RIGHT FOR YOU? All-on-4 is a versatile treatment suitable for many patients, even those with reduced bone density or volume. It offers a predictable and efficient solution for individuals who have lost most or all of their teeth and desire a permanent and fixed tooth replacement option. During your consultation, our dental team will assess your oral health, discuss your goals and expectations, and determine if All-on-4 is the right treatment for you. At EDITION dental, we are committed to providing exceptional care and utilizing advanced techniques to help you achieve a healthy, functional, and beautiful smile with All-on-4. If you have any questions or would like to schedule a consultation, please contact our office. Our friendly team is here to guide you through the All-on-4 process and support you on your journey toward a confident and radiant smile. ![Same Day Dental Implants Toronto](https://editiondental.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/06/dental-1-scaled-1.jpg) Dental implants are designed to provide a foundation for replacement teeth that look, feel and function like natural teeth. Our EDITION dental implants are often the ideal tooth-replacement option, because unlike traditional tooth-replacement solutions (such as bridges, dentures, and partials) implants replace the missing tooth’s root as well as the crown. Dental implants do not require support from adjacent teeth, and they keep the jawbone strong because it has a purpose – to support the tooth’s root. Dental implants have a success rate of 95 to 98%. With dental implants, patients don’t suffer increased sensitivity or tooth decay. They don’t require other teeth to be ground down. With proper oral hygiene, dental implants last most people for a lifetime. ## WELCOME TO EDITION DENTAL IMPLANTS! ## THE MOST PREDICTABLE SOLUTION FOR MISSING TEETH. ![Dental Implant Specialist Toronto](https://editiondental.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/06/dental-2-scaled-1.jpg) ![Dental Implants Toronto](https://editiondental.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/06/dental-3-scaled-1.jpg) ![](https://editiondental.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/03/dr_ella_golrang.jpg)### DR.
