TREATMENTS
RESTORATIVE DENTISTRY
PREVENTATIVE DENTISTRY
Restorative dental procedures can save teeth and restore their natural look, shape, and feel by:
​
Preventive dentistry is dental care that helps maintain good oral health. It's a combination of regular dental check-ups along with developing good habits like brushing and flossing.
​
To achieve good oral hygiene you can try out one of the following professional services:
-
Scale & polish treatment (dental cleaning)
-
Fluoride treatment & fissure sealant.
ENDODONTICS DENTISTRY
REMOVABLE PROSTHODONTICS
Endodontics is the branch of dentistry concerned with dental pulp (structures within the roots of a tooth). Endodontic treatment, or root canal treatment, treats the soft pulp tissue inside the tooth.
Root canal treatment may be necessary to save a tooth, especially when pain is present due to irreversible pulpits or necrotic pulp (inflammation of pulp tissue).
Prosthetic dentistry is done to replace missing tissue/teeth. When it comes to prostheses in dentistry, there are different options.
​
-
Full dentures: These can replace a full arch of teeth
-
Partial dentures: These can replace a number of individual or grouped tooth spaces
​
These options would be better explained after a dental examination.
​
FIXED PROSTHODONTICS
AESTHETIC DENTISTRY
Fixed Prosthodontics is the branch of dentistry that deals with the restoration of teeth using:
-
Crown- crowns are often referred to as 'caps'. They cover the remaining parts of the natural tooth when a large amount of structure has been lost
-
Bridge - bridges are made to restore gaps between natural teeth. They can be held in place by a crowned adjacent tooth, or they can be stuck onto the adjacent tooth by a metal wing, with a special adhesive.
-
Veneers - veneers are coverings that fit over the front surfaces of your teeth. Technicians use high-quality dental materials, like tooth-colored composite or porcelain, to create them.
All of the above-mentioned restorations are made in the dental laboratory on a model of the mouth.
Aesthetic dentistry makes use of the latest techniques available and has the capability of giving you a more natural-looking and healthy smile.
​
Aesthetic dentistry can help with the following dental issues:
​
-
Whitening the shade of your teeth.
-
Fix the alignment and change the shape and size of the teeth.
-
Restore teeth that are too decayed, broken, cracked, or chipped.
-
Replace missing teeth etc.
