Root
Canal
Root canal treatment, also known as endodontic
therapy, is a procedure by which dentists
can save a diseased tooth which would otherwise
have to be extracted. In this process, dentists
target the pulp i.e. the center of the tooth.
This pulp contains nerves and blood vessels
and helps fight infection in the tooth.
Dentists recommend root canal treatment
for the following two reasons: infection
or irreversible damage to the pulp. The
most common cause of pulp infection is an
untreated cavity. Dentists also recommend
root canal treatments for very large cavities.
We wish to resort to extraction as the last
resort and make every effort to save your
natural teeth. Our team of dentists would
make every effort to make this procedure
as comfortable and painless as possible.
Tooth
Extraction
Tooth extraction is carried out as the last
resort when a tooth has extensive decay
or is fractured or broken in a manner which
cannot be repaired. We understand the apprehension
that patients may have about this procedure.
We offer a calm and soothing atmosphere
to help our patients relax during this procedure.
With the use of latest equipments, we ensure
that our patients are given the best care
possible. Further, we educate our patients
on how they can promote healing and prevent
any complications.
Periodontal
Therapy
Periodontal disease refers to disease of
the gums. The main cause of periodontal
disease is bacterial plaque. However, other
factors such as genetics, smoking, tobacco
consumption, as well as medical conditions
like diabetes and AIDS can also lead to
periodontal disease. The most common indicators
of this disease are bleeding gums and bad
breath.
The most common cause of tooth loss in adults
is uncontrolled periodontal disease. Our
team of experts can help perform periodontal
therapy on patients diagnosed with early
periodontal disease. We employ procedures
such as Scaling and Root planning to remove
the tartar. We recommend periodic maintenance
appointments until optimum results are achieved.
We also educate our patients about home
health care to achieve these optimum results.
