Villanova Dental Studio provides general dentistry services to patients in Stittsville, Kanata, and Ottawa, ON. We offer patients of all ages a place to get high-quality dental treatments. From routine cleanings to cosmetic dentistry, we can do it all. Our experienced dental team customizes general dentistry practices to the different stages of oral health.
Our Villanova Dental Studio team offers comprehensive dental care for family members. The idea behind family dentistry services is the ability to have the flexibility and convenience of choosing one dentist for all your family’s dental health needs. From your child’s first tooth to restorative dentistry options, our family dentistry services cover all areas of oral health.
We provide removable dentures to replace an entire arch or a complete set of teeth. Partial dentures are often used to replace several missing teeth. They’re generally made with a combination of metal and acrylic, while dentures are acrylic.
TMJ Disorder
We provide personalized treatment plans for Temporomandibular Disorder (TMD), commonly called TMJ. Using advanced technology, Dr. Ami Barakat and his team detect the source of the discomfort to alleviate the pain and restore the function of the jaw. TMJ sufferers often grind their teeth and have chronic problems that will only improve with treatment.
We provide root canal treatments to save natural teeth with severe dental issues. Our root canal procedure involves removing the diseased pulp of your tooth, filling it with a biocompatible material, and fitting the tooth with a dental crown. We do our best to save natural teeth with root canals without tooth extraction.
Our experienced dental team only pulls a tooth when it is necessary. We’ll perform a painless tooth extraction when a tooth is severely decayed or fractured. We also perform wisdom teeth extractions when there is insufficient room for growth.
Tooth Replacement
We offer tooth replacement services to restore your smile after the loss of damaged or decayed permanent teeth. Villanova Dental Studio dentists provide a range of tooth replacement options, including:
Dental Screenings
Our general dentistry routine dental exams provide multiple types of screenings. We do an oral cancer screening to locate any visible dictation of oral cancer risks. We also do a periodontal screening to find large areas of plaque and tartar. We remove the sticky plaque substance on your teeth and tartar accumulation below the gum line to help lower the risk of periodontal disease.
Preventative Dentistry
We believe prevention is key to exemplary oral health. Our general dentistry practices help boost your oral health in each stage of your life. Preventative dentistry practices at home will help maintain your healthy teeth and gums. We’ll help you follow a great home care regimen between dental visits.
Tooth decay often leads to painful cavities. We only use innovative cosmetic white dental fillings to fill cavities and save your tooth. Patients are often pleased with their dental fillings’ aesthetic results and safety.
We offer dental emergency services in times of need. It’s essential to stay calm and contact us immediately. We use CEREC technology to restore your smile and offer sedation dentistry treatment options for patients in distress during emergency dental visits. We can address many emergency dental services in our office, including dental accidents, root canals, abscessed tooth removal, broken fillings, tooth extractions, fractured teeth, and more.

How Often Should I Have Routine Dental Check-Ups?
We hope you’ll visit our state-of-the-art clinics for dental cleanings once every six months. These cleanings are essential to maintaining optimal oral health.

The first few visits will vary in scope and intensity, but we are happy to explain the entire process to you.

How Can General Dentistry Help Prevent Dental Issues?
The main purpose of general dentistry is preventive care. Regular teeth and gum cleanings will help maintain good oral and overall health. But our services also include providing education and advice. We will teach you how to care for your smile during the six months between visits and recommend dental products that may benefit you.
For our younger patients, general dentistry can have even longer-term effects. We make fluoride treatments part of routine check-ups for children to strengthen tooth enamel. Additionally, we can apply sealants to serve as an added barrier against cavities.
What Should I Expect During a Dental Cleaning Appointment?
Our expert dental hygienists perform dental cleanings daily. So, we know how to make them quick and efficient. We begin by removing plaque and tartar from the surfaces of your teeth and your gum line. The Villanova Dental Studio staff pays close attention to areas that may be difficult to reach with regular brushing and flossing. Our goal is to remove all harmful bacteria and prevent the development of oral health issues. Dental cleaning approaches may vary, so let us know how we can make you comfortable. We want your experience to be enjoyable and effective.
