At Westhof Dental, we provide professional dental care focused on healthy teeth, confident smiles, and practical treatment options. Whether you need a routine check-up, a professional clean, teeth whitening, or tooth replacement options such as crowns, bridges, dentures or implants, our team is here to guide you through your choices.

General Dentistry

Your oral health starts with regular dental care. General dentistry includes routine check-ups, dental examinations, fillings, treatment planning, and advice to help prevent dental problems from becoming more serious.

General dentistry may include:

  • Dental check-ups
  • Oral health assessments
  • Fillings
  • Preventative advice
  • Treatment planning
  • Referrals where needed
  • Pain or problem-area assessments

Professional Dental Cleanings

A professional dental cleaning helps remove plaque and tartar build-up that normal brushing cannot always remove. Regular cleanings support gum health, fresh breath, and long-term oral hygiene. Routine dental visits also help identify concerns early before they become more serious.

Dental cleanings can help with:

  • Plaque and tartar build-up
  • Gum health
  • Staining from food and drinks
  • Fresher breath
  • Long-term oral hygiene maintenance

 

Teeth Whitening

Teeth whitening is a cosmetic treatment designed to brighten the natural teeth and improve smile confidence. It is important to have a dental assessment before whitening, because whitening does not work the same way on all types of discolouration and will not whiten crowns, fillings, veneers or other restorations.

Whitening may be suitable for patients who want to improve:

  • Yellowing or surface staining
  • Smile brightness
  • Confidence before an event
  • General cosmetic appearance

Dental Crowns

A dental crown is a custom-made cover placed over a tooth to help protect, strengthen or restore it. Crowns may be used when a tooth is weakened, broken, heavily filled, badly shaped, discoloured, or restored after root canal treatment. Crowns can also be used on dental implants.

A crown may be recommended for:

  • A cracked or weakened tooth
  • A tooth with a large filling
  • A broken or worn-down tooth
  • Improving tooth shape or appearance
  • Restoring an implant
  • Protecting a tooth after certain treatments

Dentures

Dentures are removable tooth replacement options used when some or all teeth are missing. They may be full or partial, depending on the patient’s needs. Dentures can help restore appearance, chewing ability, speech, and facial support. Some dentures are made after healing, while immediate dentures may be placed on the same day teeth are removed, although they may need adjustment as the mouth heals.

Dentures may be suitable for:

  • Replacing several missing teeth
  • Replacing a full arch of teeth
  • Restoring smile appearance
  • Supporting eating and speaking
  • Providing a removable tooth replacement option

 

Dental Implants

Dental implants are a tooth replacement option designed to replace missing teeth. An implant is placed in the jawbone and can support a crown, bridge or denture, depending on the number of teeth being replaced. For a single missing tooth, a custom crown is usually made to match the size, shape and fit of the surrounding teeth.

Dental implants may be considered for:

  • Replacing a missing tooth
  • Supporting a bridge
  • Improving denture stability
  • Restoring chewing function
  • Long-term tooth replacement planning
