Bramalea Dentistry was created in 1993 when the Bramalea Dental Group partnership dissolved. In 1971, Dr. Mel Perlmutter joined the Bramalea & Malton Dental Group to become the 6th partner. He worked in both offices (at 45 Bramalea Rd. and 7084 Airport Rd.) for several years and then limited his practice to Bramalea full-time. One partner left the Group in 1974 and in 1978, the partnership dissolved, leaving Bramalea Dental Group owned by Dr. Mel Perlmutter and Dr. Walter Misek.
In 1979, the Group moved to 40 Peel Centre Dr., at Bramalea City Centre. (At that time there was no Holiday Inn next door, and no Sears across the street.) In 1993, a decision was made to terminate the partnership and transform the large office into two smaller ones. |

Oral examination, Cosmetic dentistry, Bite-Guard, Bridges |
Oral Examination Check teeth, gums, bone supporting the teeth, all soft tissues in the mouth, and odour. | Cosmetic Examination Assess appearance of smile -- lips, teeth, gums.
Assess smile in relation to whole face. | Bite-Guard Many people have a habit of clenching or grinding their teeth (when not eating or chewing gum) often at night when sleeping. This can cause a variety of problems. Teeth may wear excessively. Teeth may become loose. Muscles may ache from overactivity. | Bridges A fixed bridge involves at least one false tooth attached to one or more adjacent teeth. A removable bridge is also called a partial denture. | Teeth Cleaning This is done by our Dental Hygienists, Cathy and Laura, for most patients. For young children, our Preventive Dental Assistant, Nancy, helps them with their cleaning, providing a learning experience, not just a cleaning. See Children's Programme - Polaroid 'Wall of Fame'. | Crowns These cover a tooth like a thimble covers a finger. They can be made of metal, or porcelain, or metal covered with porcelain. Temporary crowns can be made of acrylic and/or metal. (See Eight Gold Crowns, Three Porcelain Crowns and One Porcelain on Metal Crown) | Dentures These are removable appliances that replace all teeth or some teeth. Mr. Michael Litvack is the denture therapist who does most of the denture work here, usually on Thursdays after 4:00 p.m. | Gum Treatment Unhealthy gums (gingivitis or periodontitis) can usually be made healthy by thoroughly cleaning the teeth, in the dental office and at home. Sometimes, a thorough cleaning can not be accomplished unless surgery is done to make the roots visible | Implants Titanium metal implants are placed into the bone by a periodontist or an oral surgeon. Dr. Perlmutter will then do the prosthetic work to attach something to the implants. Crowns and/or bridges can be attached so they are not removable by the patient. Removable dentures can be attached to implants. | Lumineers by Cerinate Lumineers are thin porcelain veneers made with patented Cerinate porcelain. (See www.Cerinate.com.) Because they can be made so thin, the teeth may need little or no cutting before they are placed. This may mean no local anaesthetic injections and no pain during or after treatment. |
