Dental Examination
At Gentle Dental, we guarantee that your custom-made dentures will match the look and feel of your natural teeth! The process of getting your dentures starts with an oral examination, where our team of dentists will help you determine if dentures are the right restorative dentistry solution for you. Once it’s been decided that dentures are the right option for you, our team of dentists will measure and take molds of your teeth so we can begin creating your custom-fit dentures. At your next appointment, we’ll ensure that your custom dentures are a perfect fit and that you’ll be able to use them without any issues. If necessary, we can always make adjustments! Your dentures may take a few weeks to get used to, as they can be a bit uncomfortable at first when eating and speaking. Once you’re used to your new dentures, your ability to chew, speak, and smile will be as good as new!

Oral Cancer Screening
Dr. Lee grew up in Vancouver, BC in Canada and earned his Bachelor of Science degree at the University of Waterloo. He then went on to work at a biotech company developing cell separation technologies used for research around the world. He then went on to work with a research team developing novel biomarkers for prostate cancer screening and diagnosis. Through this experience, Dr. Lee was exposed to the clinical setting, and he developed a desire to work with patients directly. Soon enough, Dr. Lee went on to pursue dentistry at Tufts University School of Dental Medicine.

Teeth Cleaning
Teeth cleaning with Gentle Dental ensures that your oral health is in great shape and your smile is looking amazing! Our family dentists in South Portland, Biddeford, and Topsham provide professional teeth cleanings for both children and adults!
Dental Sealants
Dental sealants are a protective layer of plastic or other dental material that molds to your back teeth in order to prevent cavities and decay from forming. The sealants act like a coating on your molars, keeping leftover food out of there which could otherwise cause cavities. Studies have shown that dental sealants can reduce the risk of decay and cavities by up to 80%, which is especially important for children whose teeth are still growing and developing. The CDC (Center for Disease Control) says that only about 43% of school aged children have dental sealants, and those without them have three times as many cavities on average.

Fillings
There are a few options for tooth filling materials, each of which have different benefits. These include composite resin (or tooth colored) fillings, gold fillings, silver amalgam fillings, and porcelain fillings.
Resin Composite
Once the composite resin has been applied to the desired teeth, the dentist will use a special light to harden and cure the bonding material. This process typically takes a few minutes.
Veneers
Dental veneers are thin coverings that are bonded to the front of your natural teeth. Veneers are used to cosmetically repair chipped, uneven, crooked, worn Read More
Crowns
Dental bridges require several trips to the dentist in order for it to be done properly. On your first visit, the dentist will prepare the anchor teeth, or the teeth that the bridge will be anchored by. This process involves removing enamel from these teeth so that a crown can be placed on them. Impressions of your teeth will then be made so a dental lab can create the bridge custom to your mouth. You will then be given a temporary bridge to have in between bridges in order to protect the anchor teeth and gums. During your second appointment, the temporary bridge will be replaced with the custom permanent bridge. Following this appointment, you should be sure to get checkups regularly to ensure that the bridge is fitting properly and it has fixed your bite and your smile.
Bridges
Dental bridges are used to fill the gap in a smile left by missing teeth that were lost to trauma, health conditions, or wear and tear. Dental bridges are not only a cosmetic fix, but are also used to restore a person’s ability to chew and speak correctly as well as maintain the shape of their face. Dental bridges can also keep remaining teeth from drifting out of position and becoming crooked. Bridges are highly customized and usually made from gold, alloys, or porcelain.
Dental Bonding
Dental bonding is an ideal dental procedure for fixing chipped, cracked, or stained teeth! By applying a tooth-colored resin to the affected tooth, a dental professional can conceal imperfections and improve the overall appearance of your smile. In this article, we’ll talk about the dental bonding process and the benefits it has on teeth that have been damaged by trauma or decay!
Restorative Dentistry
Restorative dentistry is the subset of dental care that accounts for repairing teeth and gums that have been damaged by trauma or decay. If you Read More

Root Canal Treatment
Although root canals can seem scary and intimidating, they are a routine dental procedure that is important to your oral health. A broken tooth or other damage that exposes the tooth’s root can make a root canal necessary, because bacteria can build up and cause infection. Our goal here at Gentle Dental is to make sure that a root canal is never necessary with regular check-ups, but if a tooth deteriorates to the point where one is necessary, we will make the procedure as painless as possible.

Dentures
Dentures are an excellent solution for missing teeth and teeth with extensive damage – they’re strong, reliable, and can be custom fit for anyone! Dentures are used for more than just looks: they’ll also fully restore the functionality of your teeth and mouth. If you’re interested in getting dentures, don’t hesitate to

Dental Implants
In comparison to some other restorative dentistry procedures, dental implants are relatively quick and easy. Dental implants can be used to replace one or many teeth, depending on the extent of damage or decay in a person’s mouth. The process of getting implants can vary in time and amount of appointments depending on the number of teeth that are being replaced with implants. However, in many cases, it can be done in as little as one day! Just like with every procedure we perform at Gentle Dental, our dentists will speak with you about your options and give the recommendation that we believe is right for you! If a dental implant is decided on, our dentists will perform a complete oral evaluation before extracting the damaged tooth that needs to be replaced. Next, the three components of the dental implant will be attached to your mouth. Dental implant procedures generally have a speedy recovery time, so you don’t need to worry about being in pain for days on end. Our dental implants are designed to last upwards of 30 years!

Tooth Extractions
While your adult teeth will ideally last a lifetime, there are many reasons why a tooth extraction, or having a tooth pulled, may be necessary. Some of these reasons include damage to a tooth from trauma or decay, infection of a tooth’s root, and overcrowding of the mouth and gums. At Gentle Dental, our number one priority is the health and comfort of your mouth. For this reason, if a tooth extraction is necessary, we’re the dentist for the job! We’ll be sure to give you an in-depth explanation of the procedure and answer any questions you may have about the process!

Orthodontics
Invisalign Orthodontics
Invisalign braces are a great way to handle crooked teeth or teeth with large gaps. Invisalign braces are often preferred over traditional braces because they are removable.
