Dental veneers are very thin and small custom-designed “shelves”. They are glued over the external surface of the tooth. Dental veneers are usually made of porcelain and chosen to match the patient natural tooth colour. They are a solution for teeth which are deeply discolored, chipped, or have an irregular shape or uneven surface. They can sometimes correct spacing or uneven tooth alignment.The patient must be aware that it is an irreversible process as it requires an invasive tooth preparation : the dentist will file the teeth to place the porcelain veneers over the top.

Inlays are very durable fillings that are hand-crafted in the dental laboratory. Depending on the patient's preferences, inlays are made of gold or ceramic. This guarantees a long lasting, aesthetic, strong and loadable filling.

Restoring missing teeth with dental implants is more like getting a third set of teeth. It is just like a natural tooth, which has a root which integrates into the Jaw bone, and on this strong foundation a crown is given. Dental Implants are of various types, there is also a technology difference. It is critical to choose the right type of Implant that best serves your needs. · Replacement of single missing tooth, Replacement for multiple missing teeth, Stabilizing mobile dentures with the help of implants.

Removable partial dentures generally replaces multiple or single teeth where there are still healthy teeth present. A partial denture also serves as a spacer to prevent the living teeth from shifting position. The one pictured above replaces 4 missing teeth, leaving spaces for 7 natural teeth. Two of the natural teeth are clasped with wrought wire clasps which are cured into the structure of the denture base. The pink material of the denture base is hard plastic and the same material used to make complete dentures. The main single advantage to this type of RPD is the cost. Also the new teeth and new denture base can easily be added to an existing treatment RPD. These are frequently fabricated even if the remaining teeth have existing decay or periodontal disease and their prognosis is doubtful. If later in the course of treatment some of the existing natural teeth are extracted for any reason, new false teeth can be added quickly to the partial, maintaining the patient's appearance. Another common and infact more important use of these appliances is as an "immediate partial denture". This means that the appliance can be made before the teeth are removed, and inserted immediately after the extraction of the planned teeth so that the patient is never without teeth. This is of special help when anterior teeth are to be extracted and patient wants to return back to his/her normal routine immediately.

Wisdom teeth usually emerge from the gum (erupt) between the ages of 17 and 24. They are the last of the molar teeth. Some people never develop wisdom teeth; others have up to four - one in each corner of the mouth. Wisdom teeth often cause no problems. They are described as impacted when there is not enough space for them at the back of the mouth. In such a case it might erupt towards the cheek or it might impinge on the second molar. Impacted wisdom teeth can cause pain, swelling, infection or damage to the teeth next to them. If the gum around the wisdom tooth is swollen the jaw may become stiff and sore. Infection at the back of the mouth can cause bad breath and a bad taste. The surgical removal (extraction) of one or more wisdom teeth can relieve these problems. People who have impacted wisdom teeth that are not causing problems do not need to have them removed. Having wisdom teeth removed is often the only way to permanently relieve painful symptoms. Although antibiotics can provide temporary relief, the symptoms tend to flare up again in the future. The removal of such impacted wisdom tooth has to be accomplished surgically.

Dental implants are artificial abutment teeth made from a unique bio material and applied in the place of the lost tooth to hold a tooth replacement. The material is pure, unalloyed titanium which is not rejected by the human tissue. During preliminary examinations the dentist checks the patient in order to decide whether the use of implants is possible. This includes a dental examination via X-Ray shots (of tooth substitution to see if the jaw is able to carry the implants).

Root canal therapy refers to the treatment of the inner aspects of a tooth, specifically that area inside a tooth originally occupied by the tooth's "pulp tissue". The process of root canal treatment first removes (as thoroughly as possible) bacteria, nerve tissue, the organic debris left over from the breakdown of nerve tissue, and bacterial toxins out from within the inner aspects of a tooth. All of these items either are or will produce the tissue irritants that can cause your body to activate an inflammation reaction. Subsequently, once this space has been cleaned root canal treatment involves filling in and sealing off the interior of the tooth. This is done as a means of minimising the possibility that bacteria will be able to re-colonize the inner aspects of the tooth or that the interior of the tooth can fill in with tissue fluid that could become stagnant and subsequently break down. (Either of these situations could produce a state of persistent inflammation in the bone that surrounds the tooth's root. ) The seal also contains and encapsulates any debris that could not be fully removed during the cleaning aspect of the root canal treatment process so that it cannot leak out and trigger an inflammation reaction.

An Implant is a small titanium screw-like fixture that serves as the replacement for the root portion of a missing natural tooth. The Implant is placed in the bone of the upper or lower jaw. After the placement, the implant has to fuse with the bone (titanium is one of the best materials to integrate with natural bone) which can take a couple of weeks. Treatment time will depend on your situation. It is possible to get well functioning and esthetic looking teeth within a few days. At the Final stage you will get brand-new teeth which are strong and similar to natural teeth. Dental implants can be used to replace a single lost tooth or a number. Implant supported replacement teeth look, feel and function like natural teeth, they preserve the integrity of a facial structure and improve the look and function of a jaw. Once the screw-like fixture is safe, a dentist will screw in an actual dental implant that is made to look and replace natural tooth. An Implant will be placed either on the lower or upper jaw. A successful implant will resemble and function as your natural teeth.
