Smile Designing
Smile Designing doesn’t just involve teeth. It involves surrounding gums, jaw bone, lips and other facial muscles. Smile designing is a process whereby complete oral hard and soft tissues are studied and certain changes are brought about which will have a positive influence on the overall esthetics of the face.
Tooth Jewellery
Teeth jewellery is a brilliant way to add sparkles to your smile and stand out of the crowd. You can surprise your friends with a sparkling crystal glass design, or something in gold with a twinkle of ruby or diamond. These tiny little designs are of great fun, and because there's no drilling involved, they won't harm your teeth.
Bleaching
Dental bleaching, also known as tooth whitening, is the simplest way to brighten your smile. In the bleaching technique a bleaching solution/gel is applied to the stained teeth and activated with heat of light in the dental clinic. Alternatively, bleaching gel is provided to you to be used with a tray at home.
Root Canal Treatment
Root canal treatment, also known as endodontic treatment, is a dental procedure in which the diseased or damaged pulp of a tooth is removed and the inner areas of the tooth (the pulp chamber and root canals) are filled and sealed.
Composites Resoration
Composite resin is a plastic tooth-coloured material that is used as a filling. The process of fusing the filling material to the tooth is called bonding. In this technique minimum tooth material is removed, as the filling has mechanical bonding with the tooth.
Post and Core
A post and core is a dental restoration used to build-up tooth structure for future restoration with a crown when there is gross loss of tooth structure. Post and cores are therefore referred to as foundation restorations.
Oral Surgery
Oral surgical procedures such as Tooth extraction, Surgical removal of Impacted teeth, Cyst removals, Orthognathic surgery (Jaw repositioning), Bone grafting, Sinus Augmentation are being regularly done under this speciality.
Porcelain Veneers / Laminates
These are thin ceramic shells bonded on to the surfaces of the prepared teeth. These veneers can correct or camouflage discoloration, fractures, gaps and malpositioning of the teeth. Veneers are much more durable and esthetic than composite bonding.
Dental Implants
When teeth are missing in the jaw, fixed artificial teeth can be provided by inserting titanium implants into the bone which serve as the foundation for the teeth. Implants are used in combination with crowns, bridges, dentures etc.
Orthodontics
Orthodontics refers to the use of wires to align crooked or crowded teeth and to close gaps between them. Though Orthodontics can be started at any age, it is strongly advised to bring your child for a checkup anytime after 6 years of age, since many adult dental problems can be avoided by early orthodontics. Adults can also have their teeth straightened as orthodontics is not limited to children.
Inlays and Onlays
More conservative than a crown, inlays and onlays are two methods of restoring normal tooth structure after decay or other damage. Inlays and onlays are known as indirect fillings, because unlike a standard filling that is done in a dentist's office, both are made in a laboratory and cemented or bonded to the surface of the tooth during a second visit to the dentist. They can be made up of tooth colored or metallic materials.
Periodontal Treatment
Gum disease is the inflammation or infection that attacks the gums and bone that hold your teeth in place. Gum disease can be treated in ways ranging from cleaning to surgery but it can be prevented altogether by regular brushing, flossing and professional cleaning. Various periodontal treatments include Scaling, Deep Cleaning, Root Planing, Flap surgery, Bone and Soft Tissue Grafting (Regeneration).
Pediatric Dentistry
Pediatric dentistry is an age-defined specialty that provides dental health care for infants and children through adolescence, including those with special health care needs. Baby teeth provide the foundation for healthy permanent teeth. Various treatments like fluoride therapy, Pit and fissure sealants, pediatric restorations, root canal therapy, stainless steel crowns, minor orthodontic correction, space maintainers, habit breaking appliances etc can be carried out.
Crowns and Bridges
Crowns are used to cover the teeth that are altered by decay, fracture or discoloration. They are also usually required after Root Canal Therapy. The tooth is shaped to support the crown. A crown can also be placed on top of an implant to provide a tooth-like shape and structure for function. The crowns can be metal containing or metal-free. Porcelain or ceramic crowns can be matched to the color of your natural teeth. Other materials include gold and metal alloys.
Dentures
Dentures are sets of artificial teeth set into plastic frameworks that rest directly on the gums. Partial dentures are used for people with several teeth missing, while complete dentures are used for people who have lost all their upper or lower teeth. The comfort of dentures can be greatly improved by integrating them with implants.
