General Dental Services in Raleigh
To help you maintain the highest level of oral health, Luma Dental Studio offers a comprehensive range of general dentistry procedures. These services allow Dr. Chi to identify many oral health problems early and provide preventative care to keep your oral health at its peak.
- Routine Cleanings — Luma Dental Studio provides top-quality routine dental cleanings to help prevent cavities and gum disease. Regular cleanings protect your long-term oral health while keeping your smile bright, healthy, and looking its best.
- Pediatrics — Early dental visits build the foundation for lifelong oral health. Dr. Chi and our friendly team provide compassionate pediatric dental care to help your children develop healthy habits and confident smiles as they grow.
- Oral Cancer Screening — Noticing red or white spots in your mouth? Don’t ignore them—these can be early signs of oral cancer. Regular oral cancer screenings are essential to help detect issues early and protect your long-term health.
- Periodontal Therapy — Gum disease is the leading cause of adult tooth loss and is often associated with frequent gum bleeding and bad breath. Periodontal therapy is an effective and sometime necessary deep cleaning that manages serious gum conditions.
- Sealants — Back teeth are more prone to cavities due to deep pits and grooves that trap food and bacteria, making them hard to clean. We offer dental sealants to protect these cavity-prone surfaces and keep your smile healthy.
- Fluoride — Fluoride treatments strengthen teeth and protect against cavities and decay. This quick, painless preventive treatment can be added to your visit to boost enamel and support long-term smile health.
- Tooth Colored Fillings — Untreated cavities can lead to tooth loss and impact both your oral health and confidence. Luma Dental Studio offers tooth-colored fillings to repair decay, restore strength, and keep your smile healthy and natural-looking.
- Sleep Apnea — Sleep apnea can prevent restful sleep and affect overall health. Effective sleep apnea treatments help improve breathing, restore quality sleep, and support better daily functioning.
- Dental Sleep Appliance — Obstructive Sleep Apnea (OSA) occurs when the airway closes during sleep, briefly stopping breathing. Dental sleep appliances help manage OSA, improving sleep and preventing more serious health complications.
- TMJ Treatments — Frequent headaches or jaw pain may signal TMJ disorder, which can disrupt daily life. We offer effective, non-surgical TMJ treatments that can relieve discomfort, improve jaw function, and restore quality of life.
- Nightguards — Sleep bruxism causes unconscious teeth grinding, affecting millions and potentially harming your teeth and daily life. We offer custom nightguards to manage symptoms and protect your smile.
- Dental Botox — Botox is widely known for reducing wrinkles, but it also has valuable dental applications. It can help improve your smile, relieve certain jaw issues, and support overall oral health.
- Sports Mouthguards — Playing contact or high-impact sports can lead to dental injuries. Custom sports mouthguards protect your teeth and gums, helping prevent serious damage during games and practices.
- Root Canals — Persistent, severe tooth pain may indicate an infection. Root canal therapy can relieve pain, stop the infection, and save your tooth from potential loss, protecting your overall oral health.
- Tooth Extractions — Severely damaged teeth can often be saved, but if extraction is necessary, it can be performed safely and comfortably under Dr. Chi’s expertise, ensuring a relaxed experience while maintaining your oral health
- Wisdom Teeth Extraction — Impacted wisdom teeth can cause swelling, misalignment, and soreness. Wisdom tooth extraction safely removes them, relieving discomfort and preventing further dental issues.
