What is Periodontitis?
Periodontitis, often referred to as gum disease or periodontal disease, begins with bacterial growth in the mouth. If not managed, this can lead to inflammation and other complications, potentially resulting in tooth loss. Gum disease can sometimes progress without causing pain or showing noticeable signs, even in later stages. This gradual progression is one reason why early detection is important.
Regular dental check-ups can assist in identifying gum disease during its earlier, more treatable stages. While signs may be subtle, some possible indicators include:
- Bleeding gums
- Persistent bad breath or an unpleasant taste in the mouth
- Receding gums
- Deep pockets forming between the gums and teeth
- Loose or shifting teeth

Cosmetic Dentistry
A great looking smile can enhance your overall appearance and boost your confidence. Dr. Yap has extensive training and experience in the art of cosmetic dentistry and can create a personalised treatment plan to give you a beautiful, natural-looking smile you’ll love. In cases where a single cosmetic procedure will not create the results you desire, he can combine numerous procedures and give you a personal smile makeover plan. These services include:
Invisalign
Invisalign straightens your teeth without wires and brackets using a series of clear, customised, removable appliances called aligners. It’s virtually undetectable, which means hardly anyone will know you’re straightening your teeth. Whether you have a crossbite, overbite, underbite, or issues with the spacing of your teeth, schedule a FREE Smile Assessment with Dr. Yap and find out how Invisalign can straighten your teeth at a price you can afford.
Dental Implants
Missing teeth may lead to an unsightly smile, lack confidence and the avoidance of many types of foods. Traditionally, the only treatment options to replace missing teeth were dentures or bridges. Today, many patients turn to dental implants to replace missing teeth*. With its proven track record, you can feel confident in making the move to replace troublesome dentures with a lasting solution, a stronger bite, and a beautiful smile. Whether you need a single implant or several implants, Dr. Yap can help.
General Dentistry
Dr. Yap offers dental care for the whole family by providing a wide range of general, emergency and restorative dental services. As your primary dental care provider, he can manage all your oral health needs to ensure your teeth and gums are properly cared for. If you have been avoiding the dentist out of fear or anxiety, Dr. Yap offers sedation dentistry options that can help you feel relaxed and comfortable during your visit.
