Teeth Cleaning
Professional teeth cleaning removes tartar and plaque buildup through scaling, polishing, and debridement. Our hygienists use specialized tools to access hard-to-reach areas, preventing cavities and gum disease. Regular bi-annual cleanings maintain oral health while improving smile aesthetics through stain removal.
Root Canal Therapy
This procedure saves infected teeth by removing damaged pulp tissue and disinfecting root canals. We use modern techniques to eliminate pain while preserving natural tooth structure. Post-treatment crowns protect restored teeth, preventing future complications and maintaining dental alignment.
Crowns and Dentures
Custom crowns restore damaged teeth while dentures replace missing ones, both matching natural tooth color. Crowns protect weakened teeth after root canals, while partial or complete dentures improve chewing function and facial aesthetics. Our lab-fabricated restorations ensure proper fit and durability.
Veneers
Porcelain veneers cover dental imperfections like stains, chips, and gaps. This minimally invasive procedure involves enamel preparation and bonding of ultra-thin ceramic shells. Veneers provide long-lasting smile transformation while maintaining natural tooth appearance and function.
Pediatric Dentistry
We specialize in treating children with gentle techniques and anxiety-reducing approaches. Services include preventive checkups, cavity treatment, and orthodontic assessments. Our child-friendly environment helps establish positive dental habits through educational, play-based interactions.

I am on the fence about this dentist, I have been coming here after leaving my previous dentist's office for about a year. Unfriendly front end staff who always seem to be miserable being there, grumpy and brisk. The dentist is quite thorough and friendly as well as the hygienists.

Ive been coming here for years because of Dr Shacklock. He's a great dentist! The front staff, Jose, is not the friendliest. Other than that all other staff are very professional and kind

When i took my son there, knowing he had cavities, the dentist told me off its not cavity only discolouration and did not treat it. So now, i have been laid off from work since COVID and dont have an insurance with a child with teeth full of cavities. totally unimpressed. Also, when i went in for teeth cleaning, they damaged my gum so horribly, it did not heal for at least a month.
