Our experienced team of healthcare professionals offers a diverse range of cosmetic and restorative services, with a primary emphasis on preventive care. We are dedicated to providing top-notch preventive care and dental cleanings in Toronto, Ontario, and beyond. Our approach incorporates advanced technology such as 3D digital x-rays, intraoral and extraoral cameras, digital cavity detection, intraoral scanners, and more to identify potential issues before they escalate into major problems.
Dr. Vasant Ramlaggan leads the team at Midtown Dental, where we specialize in the following preventive care services in our Toronto, Ontario dental practice:
Preventive Dentistry Focused on Early Detection
Preventive dentistry goes beyond routine cleanings. At Midtown Dental Centre, our preventive approach is designed to identify potential concerns early — before they become painful, complex, or costly. Regular dental exams allow our team to monitor changes in your oral health, assess gum condition, evaluate your bite, and detect early signs of tooth decay or wear.
During preventive visits, we may recommend digital X-rays or additional diagnostic tools when appropriate. These allow us to see what isn’t visible to the naked eye, such as decay between teeth, infections, or bone changes. Catching concerns early often means simpler treatment, shorter appointments, and better long-term outcomes for your smile.
Nightguards for TMJ Pain
If you suffer from teeth grinding (bruxism) during sleep, it can lead to headaches, TMJ (temporomandibular joint) issues, uneven tooth wear, and chipped or fractured teeth. At Midtown Dental Centre, we custom-create nightguards to address these problems and protect your dental health. Our specialized orthotics and advanced treatments can also alleviate bite-related headaches by correcting bite function issues. If you experience symptoms like jaw clenching during sleep, jaw muscle pain or tightness, or jaw swelling, a custom-fitted mouthguard could offer the TMJ relief you need!
Mouthguards for Sports
Engaging in sports activities requires safeguarding your smile. An athletic mouthguard is a valuable form of protection. Our mouthguards are tailored to each patient, offering superior teeth protection and additional defense against concussions. Our dental team crafts custom mouthguards that fit comfortably in your mouth.
Laser Gum Treatment
We employ cutting-edge soft tissue lasers to combat gum disease symptoms. This advanced technology provides precise and controlled treatment, reducing discomfort compared to traditional or surgical gum procedures. At Midtown Dental Centre, we offer a Soft Tissue Management (STM) program, which includes tissue debridement using a piezo scaler—a quick, painless, and versatile FDA-cleared system for both hard and soft tissue treatments in the mouth. Our doctors utilize this laser for cavity preparation, a wide range of gum treatments, and complex oral surgeries.
OraVital®
The OraVital® System delivers accurate diagnoses and effective treatment for oral infections leading to dental caries, halitosis, peri-implantitis, and periodontal disease. We utilize this advanced system to create a personalized regimen of dentist-prescribed oral rinses with antimicrobial, antibiotic, and antifungal properties. The OraVital® System aims to control gum disease in up to 90% of dental cases within four weeks.
Long-Term Oral Health Through Proactive Care
Consistent preventive care plays a critical role in maintaining healthy teeth and gums at every stage of life. By attending regular exams and following a personalized prevention plan, patients often reduce their risk of gum disease, tooth loss, and the need for restorative procedures such as fillings, crowns, or root canal treatment.
Preventive dentistry also supports overall wellness, as oral health is closely connected to general health. Addressing inflammation, infection, or bite issues early can help protect both your smile and your comfort over time.
Whether you’re maintaining good oral health or managing ongoing concerns, our team focuses on proactive care that supports lasting results. Preventive dentistry isn’t just about today — it’s about protecting your smile for years to come.
