Aesthetic Dentistry
Treatments that change how teeth look — whitening, veneers, bonding, crowns and alignment — planned around your bite and overall oral health.
Procedures by Dr Adrian Shi
13 procedures. See Dr's profile.
Bone Grafts
Rebuilds jawbone lost after extractions or gum disease, usually to create enough bone for a dental implant. The graft integrates with your own bone over several months.
Botulinum Injection
Botulinum toxin injections for dental indications such as jaw muscle pain, teeth grinding (bruxism) and a gummy smile. Effects appear within days and last around three to four months.
Dental and Facial Trauma
Emergency and follow-up care for knocked-out, broken or displaced teeth and injuries to the jaws and face, from splinting and re-implantation to surgical repair.
Extractions
Removal of teeth that cannot be saved due to decay, gum disease, fracture or crowding, done under local anaesthesia. Replacement options are discussed before any extraction.
Implants
Replaces a missing tooth with a titanium post placed in the jawbone, restored with a crown once healed. From placement to final crown typically takes three to six months.
Jaw Cysts and Tumours
Assessment and surgical management of cysts and benign growths of the jaw, typically involving imaging, biopsy where indicated, and removal under local anaesthesia or sedation.
Obstructive Sleep Apnea
Custom-made oral appliances that hold the lower jaw forward during sleep to keep the airway open — an option for snoring and mild to moderate obstructive sleep apnea.
Oral Surgery
Surgical procedures of the mouth and jaw, including surgical extractions, wisdom tooth removal, bone grafts and biopsies, under local anaesthesia, sedation or general anaesthesia.
Replacing Missing Teeth
An overview of the options for replacing missing teeth — implants, bridges and dentures — covering what each involves, how long each lasts and typical costs.
Sedation and General Anesthesia
Sedation options for anxious patients and longer procedures, ranging from inhalation and intravenous sedation to general anaesthesia for selected cases.
Temporomandibular Disorders
Diagnosis and management of jaw-joint and muscle problems — pain, clicking, locking and bite-related headaches — using bite splints, physiotherapy, medication or botulinum injections.
Wisdom Tooth Surgery
Removal of impacted or partially erupted wisdom teeth in a minor surgical procedure under local anaesthesia or sedation, with stitches removed about one to two weeks later.
