Our Little Hero -- Tee Tien You. BRAVO!!!!!


Tien You was very apprehensive towards dental treatment. He has great phobia -- refused to open his mouth, refused to even sit on dental chair. Finally, he overcame all his fear, and managed to let us did a few fillings on his teeth. (all done without drilling, only by using hand instrument). Yes, results not fantastic, BUT,  Its a GREAT thing for Tien You . He has successfully stepping forward his 1st important step!

Congrates, Tien You. You are a brave boy now.........



我们的小英雄-Tee Tien You

向牙痛的童年说再见。

小朋友第一次看牙科的经验很重要,
家长切记不要让小孩牙齿痛了才看牙医,
因为在牙痛时才做任何治疗都会留下痛苦的经验。
 我们希望孩子与父母们,期待的进来诊所,
开心的离开,
而且这辈子不再害怕上牙科诊所

Five sign your baby is teething





1.  Buldging gums 
You can see the outline of the teeth as they are buldging inside the gums. 



          2.  Biting
A baby that is teething will gnaw and gum down on anything she or he can get their mouth around.  The counter pressure from biting on something helps relieve the pressure from under the gums.

 
             
              3.  Baby drooling
Babies do tend to drool more when they teething. Give your little one a teething bib or change her shirt when it’s soaked, and make sure you wipe her cheeks and chin often, or she could get chafed skin.

              4.  Fussing
As the sharp little tooth rises closer to the surface your baby’s gums may become increasingly more sore and painful, leading to your baby being very fussy.  

           
             
              5.  Night waking
You may find your child wakes more often at night when the pain gets bad enough with teething pain happening during the day and night .



Remedies for teething

  •      Anything cold
o  Cold spoon

o  Frozen washcloth
o  Ice rub an ice cube along baby’s gum
                               

  •       Medications
o  Analgesic

o  Teething gel
 

Teething does not make your child sick!

Your Beautiful Smile = Our Caring Touch 您亮丽的笑容是我们最大的骄傲



Lim Gets His 2 Symmetrical Front Teeth 

Lim lost his upper right central incisor many years back. Due to teeth drifting , space became smaller. He is now wearing a false tooth which is much smaller in size.

We suggested a few treatment options: dental implant, bridge, orthodontic ….. to replace the missing tooth. Discussions was based on actual teeth situation, financial consideration, treatment time involved and most importantly – to give back the satisfactory smile that Lim wanted.

Finally we decided to replace the missing tooth with full porcelain (zirconia) bridge, with aesthetic recontouring, making the 2 front teeth symmetrical.

Of course, Lim is very pleased with his new smile, which enhance his confidence greatly. 

We are happy too...
