Comprehensive Specialty Dental Services
At Woodbridge Smile Centre, we have a dedicated team of experienced dental professionals offering a complete range of specialty dental treatments. You can rely on us for:

Wisdom teeth removal
Extractions
TMJ, TMD (therapy)
Tooth Extractions
Having your teeth pulled doesn’t have to be a bad experience. We will make every effort to save your teeth and avoid extractions whenever possible. In rare and extreme cases, when the root is beyond repair, we might extract a tooth to prepare it for a restorative dental procedure, such as implants or dentures.
Sports Guards
Orthodontic and dental appliances are designed to improve the positioning of your teeth and provide correct bite. If you looking for protection and performance, UnderArmour™ has a new option!
Whether hockey is your hobby, football is your sport of choice, UnderArmour™ Performance Mouthwear can help protect your mouth while improving your performance. The appliances keep you from being able to tighten your jaw or teeth while you are in the middle of the game or practice. It keeps your body from releasing hormones that can undermine your performance and slow you down.
All of UnderArmour™’s Performance Mouthwear – mouthpieces and mouthguards —is built on Bite Tech Technology. This patented technology works by enhancing the pressure on the temporomandibular joint, preventing you from clenching your jaw. As you can’t clench your teeth together, your brain might not send the signal to your body to release hormones associated with stress. What is the result? You get to perform to your full potential.
Most of the professional athletes rely on UnderArmour™’s Performance Mouthwear to protect their teeth and help them perform to their true potential. The Mouthwear is recommended by coaches, trainers, and most importantly, by dentists!
You can choose the right Performance Mouthwear depending on what sport you play. If you want protection and performance enhancement for no- or low-contact sports, like weightlifting, baseball, or tennis, the UnderArmour™ Performance Mouthpiece will give you the right amount of performance enhancement and protection without excessive bulk.
Female and male athletes from ages 8 and above are most likely to benefit from UnderArmour™ Performance Mouthwear. Talk to our dentist if you have any worries about whether UnderArmour™ Performance Mouthwear is right for you.
Getting a customized Performance Mouthguard or Performance Mouthpiece is quick, easy, and can be done in conjunction with a planned visit to the dentist. We will make impressions of your teeth (top and bottom) and will also take a bite impression to ensure an optimal fit. After getting your impressions finished, we’ll call you when your Performance Mouthwear is ready for you to pick up—usually around 10 days from when it was ordered.
UnderArmour™’s Performance Mouthwear can be personalized with coloured bitepads and/or decals. The UnderArmour™ Performance Mouthwear is as tough as you are—for most folks, a mouthpiece or one mouthguard will last an entire season. You can clean your UnderArmour™ Performance Mouthwear with the same products you use to clean your teeth.
Migraine Pain Prevention
If you are suffering from tension headaches or migraines, you know the symptoms. At Woodbridge Smile Centre, we have a cost-effective, drug-free way to help you reduce or avoid your headaches altogether. Our dentists will help you by fitting a stabilization splint – a small but comfortable mouthpiece that helps to keep you from tightening your teeth while you are asleep.
Stabilization splints are also a feasible option if you are feeling pain in your jaw muscle, if you find yourself grinding your teeth, or just want to give your teeth’s biting surfaces and surrounding hard tissues some protection while recovering from a dental procedure or a dental trauma.
TMJ (TMD) Therapy
Do you hear a grating or popping sound when you open your mouth? If so, you may have Tempromandibular Joint pain or Tempromandibular Dysfunction. Here are some of the common symptoms it may include:
Ear symptoms, including hearing loss, ringing, or pain
Clenching/grinding your teeth during sleep
Neck and/or shoulder pain
Ongoing headaches at your temples or above your eyes
A chronic feeling of tiredness
The above may be symptoms of TMJ, but can also be caused by other conditions. This is exactly why it is very important to get a proper diagnosis, so you can treat the problem accordingly. At Woodbridge Smile Centre, we will be happy to perform an all-inclusive examination and recommend a treatment plan based on your specific problems and symptoms.
