Cleanings and Exams

Regular visits to your dentist are important to help you take care of your dental hygiene. Through cleanings and exams, you can help maintain the appearance and condition of your teeth, helping to treat problems at an early stage.

Maintaining your smile is important, not just for your appearance but for your health too. 47.2% of people over 30 have some form of periodontal disease, which can be treated effectively when caught early by your dentist. With periodontal disease being linked to other health conditions, including heart disease, it’s important to get it diagnosed and treated early.

You can get your regular exams and cleanings at Millennium Family Dental, helping to detect dental issues before they turn into bigger problems. A regular appointment for you and your family can keep your teeth and gums healthy, giving you confidence in your smile.

Composite Fillings

Cavities are common, requiring fillings to prevent your teeth from deteriorating and requiring further, more-invasive treatments to save your teeth. Cavities can be picked up easily by your dentist during a checkup, making sure you get them treated early.

Metal-based fillings used to be a popular choice for dental fillings, but these required a lot of the natural tooth to be removed and were very easy to spot – especially if you had multiple fillings. Composite fillings, however, provide a much more natural finish and are tooth-colored to be virtually undetectable in your mouth.

Tooth-colored composite fillings are a great alternative to metal fillings and are much easier to fit. They bond to the tooth, creating a more subtle look, and are longer-lasting than ever thanks to the latest dental developments.

There are a lot of benefits to having composite fillings. They can help preserve your teeth and will provide less sensitivity than a metal filling. Composite fillings can even be used to correct minor dental imperfections such as chips, a simple and effective way of treating common dental issues.

You can benefit from composite fillings at Millennium Family Dental, with a professional service to treat tooth decay and restore your smile.

Root Canals

A root canal is a common dental procedure, used to save a tooth that has become infected from extraction. Without treatment, an infected tooth can become extremely painful and can spread to the gum as well. By having a root canal treatment, you can relieve the pain and discomfort caused by the infected tooth and prevent it from causing further damage.

If you’re experiencing pain or discomfort in your tooth, then it’s important to make an appointment. Your dentist will be able to examine your tooth and decide whether a root canal is necessary. A root canal can provide you with some relief, and your dentist will put you at ease throughout the procedure and advise you on aftercare.

Root canals can be performed as part of our general dentistry services at Millennium Family Dental. If you’re experiencing severe pain in your tooth, or you’re experiencing increased sensitivity, make an appointment to get things checked out.


No matter what your needs are, we want your dental visit to be as convenient and comfortable as possible, so schedule an appointment for your whole family at our office today!


Wisdom Teeth Removal

Wisdom teeth are your third set of molars that grow during adulthood. They can take years to fully form, but if there are complications such as overcrowding, the teeth can grow horizontally and become impacted, causing pain and discomfort.

If your wisdom teeth are causing your problems, then having them removed can help relieve your discomfort and avoid further problems. Your dentist will be able to examine your wisdom teeth to check how they’re growing and recommend removal if necessary. If your wisdom teeth grow through with no problems and can be cleaned properly, there should be no need to remove them.

Wisdom teeth removal is one of the services provided at Millennium Family Dental, providing a professional service if you need to have your wisdom teeth removed.

Tooth Extractions

Tooth extractions might be required for a number of reasons. You could have an infected tooth that needs removing, some overcrowding that’s causing discomfort, or you might have suffered damage to your teeth as part of an accident or an injury.

Having a tooth extracted can provide relief for pain caused by your damaged tooth and prevent further infections and damage from occurring. During an appointment with your dentist, they will be able to assess your tooth to determine whether extraction is necessary, or if another treatment might be more appropriate for your tooth.

Following a tooth extraction, you may need your tooth replaced with an artificial tooth, and your dentist will be able to advise on the options available to you.

Millennium Family Dental can advise you on tooth extractions and carry them out at our practice. Our professional team will discuss your treatment options in detail and work to help restore your smile and your confidence too.

Emergency Dental Care
