Root Canal Treatment

Root Canal Treatment:

Root canals are the most common treatment for toothache and infection.

What is Root Canal Treatment?

Root canal therapy is an effective solution to end all root canal problems, but it is not always necessary. There are times that a root canal is not needed and other times when the problem can be solved by filling and capping it, saving your teeth and saving you money. The decision to have a root canal treatment is a decision one needs to make based on several factors.

Some of the most important factors that determine if a root canal treatment is necessary are:

When a root canal is necessary, there are several options for treatment including treatment with local anesthetics, medication or a combination of both. Root canal treatment can occur in our SDO Center.

The length of treatment varies from case to case. The initial visit typically takes 15 to 20 minutes to an hour and most patients are back in their chair after their initial treatment is complete.

It is important to remember that each patient’s situation is different and that we typically do not treat every tooth in your mouth.

After the initial visit, we will closely monitor the progress of your case and will provide you with timely and accurate information regarding your treatment options

The most important thing to keep in mind is:

while a root canal may seem scary, it is actually a very safe procedure.

The most common side effects associated with root canal treatments are:

Minor jaw pain, tenderness in the gums, and numbness in the mouth.

With a root canal, you don’t have to worry about losing their teeth.

Root canals remove the infection and clean the tooth, so your teeth stay healthy. In contrast, if you leave an abscessed tooth in place, it will continue to cause pain and may need to be extracted.

Get rid of an infected tooth.

Root canal treatment is the best way to get rid of an infected or abscessed tooth. The inflamed pulp is removed during this dental procedure, and the surfaces inside the tooth are cleaned and disinfected before a filling is placed to seal the space.

A complicated tooth extraction leaves you with a gap in your smile.

When a tooth is so severely decayed that it needs to be extracted, the dentist will usually have to cut into the gum line and remove part of the jawbone. That can leave you with a visible gap in your smile. A root canal procedure leaves your tooth intact and saves your precious facial bones!

DENTAL SURGERY AND IMPLANTOLOGY

DENTAL SURGERY AND IMPLANTOLOGY

Implantology is the branch of dentistry dedicated to dental implants. The dental implant is an artificial tooth root that is inserted into the jawbone (either the maxilla or the mandible). It often takes the form of a screw that is composed of titanium or titanium alloy.

2 Main Parts for this Department:

ORAL SURGERY

The area of dentistry concerned with correcting problems or damage to the mouth, teeth, and jaw.

DENTAL IMPLANTS

Dental implants are often required to replace any missing teeth. A dental implant is a small titanium screw that can be used to secure a replacement tooth.

ORAL SURGERY

 Oral Surgery is commonly performed to remove wisdom teeth, prepare the mouth for dentures, and repair jaw problems.

Oral Surgeons may also perform more advanced procedures as required after trauma or severe disease damages in the structure of the mouth.

 

DENTAL IMPLANTS

Dental implants are anchored in the jaw bone, and replacement teeth are permanently secured upon them.

The clinic offers conventional implants, which are placed under the gums for 3 to 6 months. After then, the implants are exposed by removing gum tissue, and teeth are placed.

To maximize the benefits of implants, Dental World can perform bone augmentation or sinus lifting. This way, our experienced dentists can create a stable platform where dental implants are fitted.

ORTHODONTIC

ORTHODONTIC

A winning smile is best complemented by straight, beautiful teeth. Orthodontics is a branch of dentistry that specializes in this by overseeing the diagnosis, supervision, guidance, and correction of problems involving the alignment of the teeth and jaws. The most common type of orthodontic treatment is the application of braces and retainers. SDOC dentists are experts in the professional application and alignment of these corrective items to help the patient’s teeth, lips, and jaws achieve facial balance.

The most common type of orthodontic treatment

Braces

Dental braces are devices used in orthodontics that align and straighten teeth and help position them.

Retainers

A teeth retainer is a custom-made device you wear in your mouth over your teeth.

Gold Braces

SDOC dentists are experts in the professional application and alignment of these corrective items to help the patient’s teeth, lips, and jaws achieve facial balance.
Gold Braces If you want to really stand out with style, gold braces might be the choice for you. Made from high-grade stainless steel and plated in gold, these braces can add a bit of sophistication to your orthodontic treatment. The gold color of the brackets is slightly darker than the silver, so it blends in better with your teeth and is not necessarily as noticeable as silver brackets.

Silver and Gold Braces

There is no real difference between silver and gold braces other than the color. It’s up to you to decide what aesthetic option appeals to you the most and what color you’d rather be showing off. You can still add different colored bands to the brackets to hold the wire in place for more personalization.
Invisalign aligners are the clear alternative to metal braces for adults and teens. These clear aligners are the virtually invisible way to improve your smile.

ENDODONTIC

Helping You Feel Comfortable In The Dentist’s Chair

In the event that the pulp becomes inflamed or infected because of either deep decay, repeated dental procedures on the tooth, faulty crowns, or a crack or chip in the tooth, an endodontic treatment has to be performed. If left untreated, pulp inflammation can result in abscess.

To understand this procedure, it helps to know about the anatomy of the tooth.

A soft tissue known as the pulp is found under the white enamel and a hard layer that is our dentin

The pulp becomes unnecessary once the tooth is fully developed as the tooth is nourished by the surrounding tissue.

It contains blood vessels, nerves and connective tissue that help in the root growth of your tooth during development

Helping You Feel Comfortable In The Dentist’s Chair

For some people a visit to the dentist leads to severe anxiety. We understand that people become nervous and we have taken steps to ensure that patients feel comfortable and safe.
If fear of the dentist is preventing you from coming in for your regular checkup or an issue that has been bothering you, please speak to us about sedation dentistry.

PERIODONTIC

Periodontology 

Periodontology is a specialized field of dentistry, related to any structure around the teeth: bone, gingiva, nerves, and sinuses. This includes dental implant placement, gum disease treatment, and much more.

Gum disease treatment

If your mouth is healthy, we can help you keep it that way. However, it is never too late to restore oral health

When combined with improved nutrition, more effective at-home hygiene, and other therapeutic techniques, the infection can often be eliminated.

We take a comprehensive approach to fighting gum disease. Scaling and root planing, also known as deep cleaning, is one of the best non-surgical treatments available

Even in the worst cases, when the natural teeth cannot be saved, there are a number of restorative treatments available – from bone grafting to dental implants

Laser Gum Depigmentation:

Laser Gum Depigmentation also known as “Gum bleaching” is a cosmetic procedure to easily remove the brown or black patches that often occur naturally on gum tissue. The treatment is quick, pain-free, and will leave you with healthy, pink gums.

Dark Gums

The condition called gingival hyper-pigmentation or “dark gums” is caused by melanin in the surface of the gum tissue. It can affect people of all races and ethnicities, though it’s more common in people with darker skin. The dark patches are usually natural, though smoking, systemic illnesses, and taking certain medications can also contribute to the condition.
