PREVENTIVE DENTISTRY
Preventive dentistry is the practice of caring for one's teeth to keep them healthy. This helps to avoid cavities, gum disease, enamel wear, and more. There are many forms of preventive dentistry, such as daily brushing and annual dental cleanings.
These practices are designed to ensure that teeth are clean, strong, and white. Children should be taught proper oral hygiene at an early age.

Routine Dental Check-up
A check-up allows your dentist to see if you have any dental problems and helps you to keep your mouth healthy. Your dentist will suggest when you should have your next check-up based on how good is your oral health is. The time between check-ups can vary from three months to a year depending on how healthy your teeth and gums are and your risk of future problems.

Scaling
Scaling removes the hard tartar which forms on your teeth like scale inside a kettle. You can't remove it just by brushing your teeth. Scaling also removes trapped food and plaque containing millions of germs, which can cause tooth decay and gum disease. Stains from coffee, tea, cigarettes or red wine are also cleaned away when your dentist polishes your teeth.

Polishing
Once all the surfaces are smooth, the dental hygienist may polish your teeth. Polishing is done using a slow speed handpiece with a soft rubber cup that spins on the end. Prophylaxis (short for prophy) paste – a special gritty toothpaste-like material – is scooped up like ice cream into the cup and spun around on the teeth to make them shiny.

Fissure Sealant
Fissure sealant is a light coating which is applied to these surfaces of teeth to produce a protection on enamel from bacteria that cause decay. Teeth often have areas that they are too difficult to clean so gradually collect plaque and bacteria.
Usually the molar teeth are the case of needing sealants, especially at a younger age.

RESTORATIVE DENTISTRY
Restorative dentistry is the study, diagnosis and integrated management of diseases of the teeth and their supporting structures and the rehabilitation of the dentition to functional and aesthetic requirements of the individual. Restorative Dentistry includes the dental monospecialties of endodontics, periodontics and prosthodontics (including implantology), and its foundation is based upon how these interact in the management of cases requiring multifaceted care.
Composite Fillings
Composite fillings are also called plastic or white fillings. Getting this kind of filling depends on where the tooth is in your mouth. To place this filling, your dentist cleans all decay from the tooth and puts a glue (or bonding material) on the inside of the hole. Composite resin is put into the hole in thin layers. Each layer gets hard with the help of a special light that your dentist holds over the tooth. When the last layer of the filling is hard, your dentist shapes the filling so it looks and feels natural. At Klinik Pergigian Ana, we also offer GIC filling and temporary filling.

Root Canal Treatment
Root canal treatment is required when the inside of a tooth becomes infected or inflamed due to decay or trauma. The procedure involves the endodontist removing the source of infection by cleaning and shaping the space inside the root and then filling it to avoid future infection. Local anaesthesia is provided to ensure patient comfort, and the entire procedure may take up to three visits depending on the case.

Crowns
A dental crowns is a cap used to cover over a tooth that may be broken or decayed to strengthen or improve the cosmetic appearance of the tooth. Crowning is a popular procedure. Depending on the condition of the tooth, a root canal may be necessary before placing a dental crown on the tooth. The dentist will then trim the tooth down to make room for the crown. An impression of the tooth and the surrounding teeth will then be made to fabricate a crown. An acrylic crown will be put on the tooth in the meantime as a temporary measure. The permanent crown is put in place during a follow up visit. We promote full porcelain crown and porcelain bonded to metal crown.

Bridges
A dental bridge is an appliance used to fill a gap from a missing tooth. (or several teeth) by joining an artificial tooth permanently to adjacent teeth or dental implant.
You can greatly enhance the appearance of your teeth and get a beautiful smile with dental bridging.
The dentist begins bridgework by filing down the teeth to accommodate the crowns. Impressions of the teeth are made to create the dental crowns.
The false tooth (or teeth) will then be bonded to the crowns. The bridge will be put in place during a follow up visit.

Dentures
Dentures also known as false teeth, are prosthetic devices constructed to replace missing teeth. They are supported by the surrounding soft and hard tissues of the oral cavity. Conventional dentures are removable. However, there are many different denture designs, some which rely on bonding or clasping onto teeth or dental implants. There are two main categories of dentures, the distinction being whether they are used to replace missing teeth on the mandibular arch or on the maxillary arch.
When dentures are made, they must be custom fitted to the mouth of the dental patient. This can be done by taking precise measurements of the patient’s mouth or by creating an exact mold of the mouth. After being created, the dentures must be tried on and fitted to the mouth of the patient.

Dental Implants
Dental Implants are devices that replace the roots of lost teeth, and are used to support crowns, bridges or dentures. They are made of two parts, with the 'screw' or 'post', which acts as the root of the tooth, integrating into the bone and holding it in place. In many cases, dental implants may be the only choice to restore all necessary functions of the teeth and supporting structures. An implant can replace a single missing tooth and multiple implants can be used to support a dental bridge for the replacement of multiple missing teeth. Implants can also be used to increase the retention of dentures, helping to minimize gum irritation. Another implant advantage is that they do not require the preparation of adjacent teeth that would be necessary for bridgework.

Periodontics Treatment
Periodontic treatment is refer to dentist who provide the prevention, diagnosis, and treatment of periodontal disease. They are also experts in the treatment of oral inflammation. They care about the gum of the patients that have to be restored back to natural structure. How to restore back to a very ideal smile? Dentist have to make Pink and White effect naturally blend together.

COSMETIC/AESTHETIC DENTISTRY
Cosmetic dentistry is generally used to refer to any dental work that improves the appearance (though not necessarily the function) of a person's teeth, gums and/or bite. Many dentists refer to themselves as "cosmetic dentists" regardless of their specific education, specialty, training, and experience in this field. Cosmetic dentistry helps you to improve the appearance of your smile. Treatment such as dental bonding, teeth whitening, denture, veneers etc. Fortunately technological advances in cosmetic dentistry have made it possible to achieve the perfect smile that you always dreamed.
Teeth Whitening
Teeth whitening has become one of the most popular ways to enhance your smile. Whitening of the teeth is performed for patients who desire a brighter smile. Tooth whitening can be performed to reduce discolouration and staining, or simply to provide the patient with whiter, brighter teeth. One visit is usually all it takes for a bright smile.

Veneers
Veneers are ultra-thin shells of ceramic (porcelain) or a composite resin material, which are bonded to the front of teeth. This procedure requires little or no anesthesia and can be the ideal choice for improving the appearance of the front teeth. Veneers are placed to mask discolorations, to brighten teeth and to improve a smile.

ORTHODONTICS TREATMENT
Orthodontics is a speciality of dentistry that is primarily concerned with the treatment of malocclusions (improper bites). Orthodontic treatment is the use of braces, most commonly to straighten crooked teeth or to correct prominent upper front teeth.
Fixed braces work by moving teeth in the bones so that all the teeth will be aligned and later, use the back teeth as an anchor to pull the front teeth. There are many types offered in dentistry however the two common ones are Metal braces and Ceramic braces.

Minor Oral Surgery
Dentists can do a large number of surgical interventions in the mouth. The term "Minor oral surgery" refers to smaller operations and include removing wisdom teeth, impacted teeth, and severely broken-down teeth, as well as apicectomies, biopsies and other procedures. The procedure is done under local anesthetic by an oral surgeon. Patient will be given medication pre and post treatment to minimize the discomforting conditions.

Tooth Extractions
Tooth extraction is the removal of a tooth from the mouth. Extractions are performed for a wide variety of reasons, including tooth decay that has destroyed enough tooth structure to render the tooth non-restorable. Extractions of impacted or problematic wisdom teeth are routinely performed, as the extractions of some permanent teeth to make space for orthodontic treatment. Tooth extraction generally takes an average of 30 minutes or less for removal of one or more tooth. The procedure is usually done after a local anaesthetic injection to prevent undue pain and stress on the patient. Some people also have a sedative to help them relax. The tooth is normally checked to see its root condition i.e. whether there is potential breakage of root. If required, an X-ray examination will be done to ensure the whole root profile can be examined. Many factors affect the complexity on an extraction such as the profile of the tooth, the condition of the gums, patient anxiety and also brittleness of the tooth structure. Your dentist will advise you on after care to help the healing process.

PEDIATRIC DENTISTRY (CHILDREN'S DENTISTRY)
Pediatric dentistry is the branch of dentistry dealing with children from birth through adolescence. Pediatric dentists promote the dental health of children as well as serve as educational resources for parents. A dental visit should occur within six months after the presence of the first tooth or by a child's first birthday. It is important to establish a comprehensive and accessible ongoing relationship between the dentist and patient. This is because early oral examination aids in the detection of the early stages of tooth decay. Early detection is essential to maintain oral health, modify aberrant habits, and treat as needed and as simply as possible. Additionally, parents are given a program of preventative home care (brushing/flossing/fluorides), a caries risk assessment, information on finger, thumb, and pacifier habits, advice on preventing injuries to the mouth and teeth of children, diet counseling, and information on growth and development.
