Restorative Dentistry
At our clinics, dental restorative treatments include:
Composite Resin
Filling
We use tooth-coloured biocompatible and bio-inert nano resins to restore cavities and fractured teeth.
Tooth coloured fillings are a safer and more aesthetic alternative to traditionally used amalgam (black) fillings and provide a natural finish.
Comprehensive Rehabilitation with Crowns, Implants and Veneers
Comprehensive rehabilitation involves the replacement of missing dentition with implants, crowns, and or veneers. At times when the tooth is worn out and the bite has collapsed, the bite is increased and the new centric relation is established with the Lucia jig technique. Facebow registration is done to record the occlusal plane so that we can diagnose cants and other esthetic discrepancies.
At our clinics, we use high-quality ceramics that have a life-like appearance and come with a warranty of 15 years.
Post and Core Restoration
A fiber post and core restoration in dentistry is a treatment used to restore a tooth that has been significantly damaged due to decay, fracture, or following root canal therapy. The purpose of this type of restoration is to rebuild the tooth structure to support a crown when there isn’t enough natural tooth structure left to do so effectively.
The steps in Post and core are:
1. Root Canal Treatment: First, the tooth must undergo or have previously undergone root canal treatment.
2. Placement of the Fiber Post: After the root canal, a fiber post is inserted into one of the cleaned root canals after removing 2/3rds of the root canal filling material.
Fiber posts are typically made from glass fibers embedded in a resin matrix. They have almost similar flexibility to natural dentin and reduce the risk of root fracture compared to metal posts.
The post is bonded into place, providing an anchor within the root canal to hold the resin core.
3. Building the Core: The core is built around the post using a resin material. This core provides a solid foundation and replaces the missing tooth structure, creating a sufficient surface area to support a dental crown.
4. Crown Placement: Finally, a dental crown is placed over the core and post structure. It is designed to mimic the appearance and function of a natural tooth.
Digital Dentistry - CAD/CAM
CAD/CAM in dentistry refers to Computer-Aided Design and Computer-Aided Manufacturing technology used in dentistry.
It allows for the design and creation of dental restorations such as crowns, bridges, and veneers using computer software and automated machinery, enhancing precision and efficiency in dental procedures.
