Preparation:Dentist takes X-rays and numbs the area with local anesthesia.A rubber dam is placed around the tooth to keep it dry
Access and Cleaning:Dentist drills a small hole in the tooth to access the pulp.Infected pulp is removed from the root canals using specialized tools.
Shaping and Filling:The canals are cleaned, shaped, and filled with gutta-percha (a rubber-like material) to seal them.
Sealing the Tooth:A temporary filling is placed, and a permanent crown or filling is usually added in a follow-up appointment to restore the tooth.
Aftercare:Mild discomfort may occur, but pain can be managed with over-the-counter medication. Follow-up may be needed for further restoration.This procedure helps save the tooth by removing infection and preventing further damage.
Initial Consultation: Dentist evaluates your oral health and takes X-rays or scans to plan the implant.
Implant Placement:Under local anesthesia, the dentist places a titanium post into the jawbone, where the tooth root used to be. The gum is then closed around it.
Healing (Osseointegration):Over 3-6 months, the jawbone fuses with the implant in a process called osseointegration.
Abutment Placement:Once the implant is fully integrated, the dentist places an abutment (connector) on top of the post.
Crown Placement:A custom-made crown is attached to the abutment, completing the implant restoration.
Aftercare: Proper oral hygiene is essential, and follow-up appointments will ensure the implant heals well.This procedure replaces missing teeth with a long-lasting solution.
Examination and Evaluation: Before whitening, your dentist will assess your teeth to determine if whitening is suitable, considering factors like tooth sensitivity and the type of staining.
Preparation: The dentist may clean your teeth to remove plaque and tartar before whitening. Protective barriers (such as a rubber dam) will be applied to shield your gums and lips from the whitening gel.
Whitening Gel Application: A whitening gel containing hydrogen peroxide or carbamide peroxide is applied to the surface of your teeth. For in-office treatments, a special light or laser may be used to activate the gel and enhance the whitening effect.
Treatment Duration: The gel is typically left on for 15-30 minutes and may be reapplied in multiple sessions, depending on the desired whitening results.
Post-Treatment Care: After the procedure, your dentist may apply fluoride gel or a desensitizing treatment to reduce tooth sensitivity. You’ll be advised to avoid staining foods and beverages for 24-48 hours after the treatment.
Result: Teeth can appear several shades whiter, with results lasting from several months to over a year, depending on lifestyle habits and oral care.
Examination and X-rays: The dentist evaluates your tooth and takes X-rays to understand the tooth’s condition and its roots.
Anesthesia: Local anesthesia is applied to numb the area around the tooth, ensuring you don’t feel pain during the procedure.
Extraction: The dentist uses special tools to loosen the tooth and remove it from the socket. If necessary, the tooth may be broken into smaller pieces to make removal easier.
Post-Extraction Care: After the tooth is removed, the dentist will clean the area and may place gauze to control bleeding. You may be given instructions on pain management, avoiding certain foods, and how to care for the extraction site to promote healing.
Healing: Healing usually takes a few days to a week, and you may experience swelling or discomfort, which can be managed with over-the-counter pain relievers.
