Services
Your Smile Is Our Priority!
At Saipan Dental Clinic, we’re committed to providing top-notch dental care for patients of all ages. Our skilled team ensures that your oral health journey is both comfortable and effective. Here’s a glimpse of the services we offer:
Crowns and Bridges
At Saipan Dental Clinic, we’re passionate about creating beautiful, functional smiles. ✨
A dental crown is like a protective cap for a damaged or weakened tooth. It covers the entire visible portion of the tooth above the gumline. Our dentist will prepare the tooth, take impressions, and then place the custom-made crown.
A dental bridge replaces missing teeth by anchoring artificial teeth (pontics) to adjacent natural teeth (abutments). Similar to crowns, bridges involve tooth preparation and impressions.
Dental Cleaning
Say hello to a brighter smile!
Even with regular brushing and flossing, plaque can accumulate on your teeth. Over time, it hardens into tartar (calculus), which can’t be removed by home care alone.
Cleanings help prevent gum disease (gingivitis and periodontitis) by removing harmful bacteria and irritants from your gumline.
Our skilled team uses specialized instruments to gently remove tartar from your teeth and below the gumline. Next, we use a gentle abrasive paste to remove surface stains and create a smooth, shiny finish. Yes, even during a cleaning, we floss your teeth to ensure no debris is left behind. Finally, sometimes we’ll apply fluoride to strengthen your enamel and protect against cavities.
Removing plaque and tartar helps keep your breath minty fresh. Regular cleanings catch issues early, preventing more serious dental problems down the road.
Fluoride Treatments
Fluoride is a natural mineral found in water, soil, and certain foods. It has remarkable properties that benefit your teeth. It strengthens tooth enamel, making it more resistant to acid attacks from bacteria and sugars. Fluoride helps prevent cavities by remineralizing weakened enamel. If you have sensitive teeth, fluoride can reduce discomfort.
Both children and adults can benefit from fluoride treatments. Our dentist will apply a concentrated fluoride gel, foam, or varnish directly to your teeth. It’s a simple process that takes just a few minutes.
Polishing & Stain Removal
We believe that a healthy smile is a confident smile. Our polishing and stain removal services are designed to give your teeth that extra sparkle.
Our skilled dental hygienists use a specialized polishing paste and a rotating rubber cup or brush. This gentle abrasion removes surface stains and polishes your teeth. For more stubborn stains, we perform scaling—a thorough cleaning below the gumline removing tartar (hardened plaque) and deep stains. Finally, air polishing is an advanced technique that uses a jet of air, water, and fine powder to blast away stains. It’s like a mini power wash for your teeth!
Remember, a polished smile not only looks great but also contributes to your overall oral health. If you’re ready to dazzle the world with your pearly whites, give us a call! We’re here to make your smile shine. 😁
Children's Hygiene & SSCs
Baby Teeth Matter: Even though they eventually fall out, baby teeth play a crucial role in speech development, chewing, and guiding permanent teeth.
Stainless Steel Crowns (SSCs):
SSCs are durable, preformed crowns made of stainless steel. When a baby tooth has extensive decay, an SSC can protect it until it naturally falls out. They serve as placeholders until permanent teeth erupt.
SSCs are often used after a pulpotomy (partial root canal) to restore the tooth’s function. They’re more affordable than custom-made crowns.
Start Early! Bring your child in by their first birthday. We aim for happy, stress-free visits to build a lifelong positive attitude toward dental care.
Remember, at Saipan Dental Clinic, we’re here to support your child’s dental health journey.
Fillings & Extractions
Got a cavity? No worries! Our expert dentists use the latest techniques and materials to restore your tooth seamlessly.
Sometimes, however, a tooth is so decayed that it can't be saved through fillings or root canals. When a tooth needs to go, we make sure the process is as smooth as possible. Trust us—we’ve got your back (or rather, your tooth)!
