DENTAL CLINIC IN BRAMPTON

Life has been anything but normal this spring and we sincerely hope you and your family are in good health. We are happy to inform you that we are now able to once again provide dental care for you and your family. The Ministry of Health has lifted some of the restrictions placed last March. While many things have changed since then, one thing has remained the same: our commitment to your health and safety.

Our office has always followed strict infection control standards and in order to keep us all protected during this pandemic and in the future, we have updated our protocols. When we see you at your next appointment, things will be a little different.

ROOT CANAL

What is a root canal?

The tooth is made up of three distinct layers: the outermost layer is the enamel, the part you can see. It is white and hard, almost porcelain-like. The second layer is the yellow dentin. It is soft and porous. There are small tubules going from the outmost to the innermost layer. Facing the innermost layer are the nerves and blood vessels, also known as the “pulp”. The pulp starts from the crown you can see inside your mouth all the way to the tip of the roots. The pulp of each tooth connects to a much larger set of nerves and blood vessels that help the tooth during development.

SEDATION DENTISTRY

Why do you need dental sedation?

If you have debilitating dental anxiety and phobias or have had a bad experience in the past, you may benefit from different levels of sedation in our office. We have many levels of sedation ranging from cognitive behavioural therapy—from our caring dentists—to moderate sedation. If you are an anxious dental patient, Lakeridge Dental has multiple levels of sedation to make you feel the most comfortable during your appointment. Sedation types include: Nitrous oxide gas, oral sedation and Intravenous sedation.

BONDED FILLING

Natural “Tooth-Coloured” Composite Restorations

What are the different types of filling materials available?

There are bonded, non-bonded and partially bonded restorative materials available. Each have their own advantages and disadvantages.
Dental research has made many breakthroughs in biomaterials since the days of dental amalgams. Today, if you need a dental cavity restored, Lakeridge Dental can use different types of strong and durable composite resins that look much more natural and are much less noticeable than a metal restoration. Composite restorations can be very conservative, minimizing tooth structure removal and can bond together parts of severely broken-down teeth.

IMPLANTS

A dental implant is an artificial root made of surgical-grade titanium metal that is inserted into the jaw to replace the natural tooth root. The implant is surgically implanted below the gumline. The implant site heals and becomes integrated into the bone. After healing, it acts as an anchor to hold an artificial tooth, bridge or denture in place.

Dental implants are made of titanium, the same metal used in joint replacement surgeries. Titanium is a very strong, corrosion resistant, natural metal which is biocompatible with your bone. As the implant heals, bony elements integrate into the specially designed surface. The implant essentially becomes a part of your own bone. It therefore makes an ideal root replacement anchor for your missing teeth

Meet the Dentists at Lakeridge Dental

Hi, we are your dentists at Lakeridge Dental in Brampton! Dr. David Koven and Dr. Charles Blumenfeld.

From Dr. David: Since the beginning, I’ve always wanted to help people maintain their oral health and create beautiful smiles. My father, who practiced dentistry for 47 years, always inspired me to be a great and caring dentist.

From Dr. Charles: Since opening Lakeridge Dental in 1982, my dental care was always based on providing excellent oral health. From day one, we always ensured we had happy patients and staff. That’s turned into a winning combination for our practice.

We are proud that Lakeridge Dental has served the Brampton community for over 30 years. We have seen tremendous changes to our practice over the years, including an emphasis on digital-based dentistry and enhanced patient comfort and convenience. What hasn’t changed is our loyal patient families!
