Dentures
Dental Bridges
Dental bridges are fixed prosthetic devices used to replace one or more missing teeth. They consist of artificial teeth (pontics) anchored to adjacent natural teeth or dental implants. Bridges restore chewing function, improve aesthetics, prevent teeth shifting, and maintain facial structure. Regular oral hygiene and professional care are essential for long-term success.
Dental Cosmetic
Dental cosmetics refer to procedures aimed at improving the appearance of teeth, gums, and smile. Common treatments include teeth whitening, veneers, bonding, crowns, and gum contouring. These procedures enhance smile aesthetics, correct imperfections like stains or misalignment, and boost confidence. Dental cosmetics often involve minimally invasive techniques with long-lasting results.
Cracked Teeth
Cracked teeth occur when the tooth structure develops fissures or fractures. They can result from biting hard objects, teeth grinding (bruxism), trauma, or weakening due to large fillings. Symptoms include pain when chewing, sensitivity to temperature changes, and discomfort when biting down. Treatment options vary from bonding or crowns for minor cracks to root canal therapy for severe cases threatening the tooth’s health. Early diagnosis and intervention are crucial to prevent further damage.
Dental Crowns
Dental crowns are caps placed over damaged or weakened teeth to restore their shape, size, strength, and appearance. They protect and strengthen teeth with large fillings, severe decay, fractures, or after root canal treatment. Crowns can be made from various materials like porcelain, metal, or a combination, customized to match natural teeth color and function seamlessly.
Fillings
Dental fillings are materials used to repair cavities caused by decay in teeth. They restore the tooth’s function and shape, preventing further decay. Common filling materials include amalgam (metallic), composite resin (tooth-colored), porcelain, and gold. The choice depends on factors like the tooth’s location, size of the filling needed, and patient preference. Regular dental check-ups ensure fillings are intact and effective in maintaining oral health.
Dental Implants
Dental implants are titanium posts surgically placed into the jawbone beneath the gum line. They serve as artificial tooth roots to support replacement teeth, such as crowns, bridges, or dentures. Implants fuse with the jawbone through osseointegration, providing stability and function comparable to natural teeth. They improve chewing ability, speech, and maintain facial structure, offering a long-term solution for missing teeth.
Orthodontic Treatments
X- Rays
X-rays, or radiographs, are diagnostic imaging techniques used in dentistry to visualize teeth, bones, and surrounding tissues. They help dentists detect dental problems like cavities, infections, bone loss, and impacted teeth. Dental X-rays are categorized into intraoral (inside the mouth) and extraoral (outside the mouth) types, each providing specific views for diagnosis and treatment planning. Digital X-rays reduce radiation exposure compared to traditional film X-rays and offer immediate results for efficient dental care.
Tooth Extractions
Tooth extractions involve the removal of a tooth from its socket in the jawbone. This procedure may be necessary due to severe decay, infection, crowding, trauma, or orthodontic reasons. Simple extractions are performed on visible teeth, while surgical extractions are required for impacted or broken teeth. Aftercare includes pain management and proper oral hygiene to promote healing and prevent complications.
Pediatric Dentistry
Pediatric dentistry focuses on oral health care for infants, children, and adolescents. It includes preventive care like dental exams, cleanings, fluoride treatments, and sealants to protect young teeth from decay. Pediatric dentists also address issues such as cavities, tooth development, and oral habits (like thumb sucking), emphasizing early intervention and education for lifelong dental health. They create a positive dental experience to instill good oral hygiene habits from a young age.
Root Canal Treatment
Root canal treatment, also known as endodontic therapy, is a dental procedure used to treat infected or damaged teeth. It involves removing the infected pulp (soft tissue inside the tooth) and cleaning and disinfecting the root canals. After thorough cleaning, the canals are filled and sealed with a material to prevent further infection. A crown is often placed on the tooth to restore its function and appearance. Root canal treatment saves teeth that would otherwise require extraction, preserving natural teeth and promoting oral health.
Veneers
Dental veneers are thin, custom-made shells of tooth-colored materials (such as porcelain or composite resin) designed to cover the front surface of teeth. They are used to improve the appearance of teeth that are discolored, worn down, chipped, misaligned, or irregularly shaped. Veneers can also close gaps between teeth. The procedure involves minimal tooth preparation and provides a natural-looking, durable solution for enhancing smile aesthetics. Regular dental care and hygiene practices are essential to maintain veneers long-term.
Teeth Whitening
Teeth whitening is a cosmetic dental procedure that lightens teeth and removes stains and discoloration. It can be done in-office with a strong bleaching agent and light activation for quick results, or at home with custom trays and bleaching gel applied over several weeks. Regular maintenance helps sustain whitening effects.
Wisdom Teeth
Wisdom teeth, or third molars, are the last set of molars to erupt in the back of the mouth. They often emerge during the late teens or early twenties. Wisdom teeth can cause issues like impaction, crowding, and infection, necessitating extraction in many cases for dental health.
