Treatments

Specialised care and treatments offered

SINUS LIFT SURGERY

Sinus Lift Surgery

Sinus lift surgery is performed when there isn't enough bone height in the upper jaw near sinuses to support dental implants. The process involves adding bone material elevating sinus floor allowing for implant placement later on!

  • This condition usually arises after prolonged tooth loss leading to bone resorption!
  • Dentists will typically employ imaging techniques such as CT scans during diagnosis!
  • Treatment includes carefully lifting sinus membranes while introducing graft material into place ensuring minimal risks involved!
  • Post-operative expectations generally outline discomfort manageable via medication along with swelling that gradually subsides!

Successfully performed sinus lifts pave way towards effective implant placements restoring functionality alongside cosmetic outcomes!

ORTHODONTIC SURGERY

Orthodontic Surgery

Orthodontic surgery corrects severe dental misalignments that cannot be adequately treated with braces alone. This involves repositioning jaws or correcting bite discrepancies for better occlusion and aesthetics.

  • This surgical intervention may be required for individuals experiencing difficulty chewing or jaw discomfort due to misalignment!
  • A thorough orthodontic evaluation combined with X-rays helps assess suitability for surgery based on individual needs!
  • Management includes surgery followed by orthodontic adjustments to perfect teeth positioning!
  • After recovery from surgery, patients can expect an improvement in both functionality as well as facial aesthetics!

The result is a beautifully aligned smile that enhances overall quality of life!

GUM GRAFTING

Gum Grafting

A gum grafting procedure addresses gum recession where soft tissue is taken from another site in the mouth to cover exposed roots. This technique improves both aesthetics and stability of teeth.

  • The necessity for gum grafting often arises from periodontal disease or aggressive brushing habits leading to recession.
  • Dentists diagnose this condition through visual examination and probing depths around your gums.
  • Treatment includes harvesting tissue from different areas (such as palate) before securing it onto receding areas via sutures.
  • You can expect improved gum health and reduced sensitivity after healing occurs post-surgery.

This surgical intervention not only enhances appearance but also protects tooth roots against decay and sensitivity issues down the line.

WISDOM TEETH EXTRACTION

Wisdom Teeth Extraction

The extraction of wisdom teeth is often necessary when these third molars become impacted or cause crowding. This surgical procedure alleviates discomfort and prevents potential complications.

  • You might experience symptoms such as pain at the back of your mouth, swelling, or difficulty opening your jaw.
  • Dentists typically diagnose this condition using clinical evaluations along with X-rays.
  • Treatment involves removing the problematic teeth under local or general anesthesia to ensure comfort during the procedure.
  • Recovery may involve some discomfort that can usually be managed with over-the-counter medications.

Removing wisdom teeth can significantly improve oral health by preventing future alignment issues and reducing pain associated with impaction.

DENTAL IMPLANTS

Dental Implants

Dental implants are artificial tooth roots planted in the jawbone to support replacement teeth. This procedure offers a permanent solution for missing teeth and restores functionality.

  • The need for dental implants may arise due to missing teeth from injury or decay.
  • A comprehensive examination and imaging studies help determine if you are a candidate for this procedure.
  • Management involves several steps: inserting the implant, allowing it to integrate with bone, then placing a crown on top.
  • Patients can expect improved aesthetics and functionality after dental implant placement.

This advanced solution not only restores smiles but also enhances confidence in daily activities like eating and speaking.

ROOT CANAL TREATMENT

Root Canal Treatment

Root canal treatment is a dental procedure designed to save a tooth that is severely decayed or infected. The goal is to remove the infected pulp, clean, and seal the tooth, preventing further damage.

  • Symptoms of needing a root canal may include severe toothache, sensitivity to hot or cold, and swelling around the gums.
  • This condition is usually diagnosed through clinical examination and X-rays.
  • Treatment options typically involve cleaning the chamber of the tooth and sealing it, followed by placing a crown for protection.
  • After treatment, you can expect relief from pain and restoration of normal function.

Overall, root canal treatment can save your natural tooth and help maintain your oral health for years to come.
