Saving Hopeless Teeth In the past, teeth with roots that had been damaged or severely infected used to require extraction, because a simple filling was an insufficient restoration. Missing teeth can create problems with your dental occlusion (bite) and should be averted whenever possible. The good news is that Dr. Aitken is able to offer root canal therapy. A root canal is a method of saving a tooth by excavating the pulp chamber of the tooth and replacing it with a filling material. When dentists first began performing root canals, the process involved extensive drilling, took considerable time, and often lacked the appropriate amount of numbing. As a result, the root canal received a reputation as something to be avoided. However, with modern anaesthetics and technology, root canals are often manageable.

An Affordable Alternative for Multiple Missing Teeth For some patients who have multiple missing teeth, a bridge may be an appropriate solution to restore full chewing ability. A bridge is anchored on both sides with crowns made of the same material and spans the gap for a return to function and comfort. Our bridges and crowns are created in colours design to blend with your existing teeth and reconstruct the fullness of your smile.

Faster Healing – Naturally Dr. Aitken is excited to offer his implant patients a new option called L-PRF™ (Leukocyte-Platelet Rich Fibrin) that promotes faster healing when implants are placed. This is a process that is 100% natural, using only a small blood sample directly from you. There are no additives of any kind, only a special process that creates a clot that, when applied to the implant site, immediately promotes the natural healing process. It uses your own power to heal, just like when you scrape a knee. The special IntraSpin™ System is a centrifuge that separates important elements of your own blood - with NO chemical alteration and nothing added – and forms them into the special clots. When applied to the implant site, their healing ability significantly reduces your recovery time and helps you achieve your beautiful new smile faster!
