Orthodontics

Orthodontics is the branch of dentistry that corrects improperly positioned teeth and jaws. Crooked teeth as well as the teeth that do not fit together correctly are harder to keep clean, are at risk of being lost early due to tooth decay and periodontal disease and Malocclusion (imperfect positioning of the teeth when the jaws are closed) causes extra stress on the chewing muscles that can lead to headaches, Temporomandibular Joint pain along with neck, shoulder & back pain. Orthodontic treatment deals primarily with the diagnosis, prevention and correction of malpositioned teeth and malformed jaws.

The benefits of orthodontic treatment include a healthier mouth and a more pleasing appearance due to proper positioning of teeth, which ultimately results in a beautiful smile, pleasing personality and higher self confidence.

The subject in totality is called Orthodontics & Dentofacial Orthopedics. Specialist Dental Surgeons dealing with these kind of treatments are known as Orthodontists.

Endodontics

Endodontics is the branch of dentistry dealing with the cause, diagnosis, prevention, and treatment of diseases of the dental pulp, usually by removal of the nerve and other tissue of the pulp cavity and its replacement with suitable filling materials, crowns etc. which is commonly known as Root Canal Treatment (RCT).

Specialist Dental Surgeons who provide these treatments are known as Endodontists & Conservative Dentists.

It generally deals with the diseases of the mouth or oral cavity, jaws and related structures such as salivary glands, temporomandibular joints, facial muscles and perioral skin (the skin around the mouth) etc.

Services Provided :

• Analysis of biopsy and cytology specimens
• Clinical management of patients with oral disease
• Consultation with clinicians based on clinical, radiographic, and histopathologic data

Dental X-Ray

X-rays, also known as radiographs, are an essential part of any dental care treatment plan. They are diagnostic, but they can also be preventative, by helping a dentist diagnose potential oral care issues in a patient’s mouth before they become a major problem. An x-ray is a type of energy that passes through soft tissues and is absorbed by dense tissue. Teeth and bone are very dense, so they absorb X-rays, while X-rays pass more easily through gums and cheeks.

X-rays are divided into two main categories, intraoral and extraoral. Intraoral is an X-ray that is taken inside the mouth. An extraoral X-ray is taken outside of the mouth.

Intraoral X-rays are the most common type of radiograph taken in dentistry. They give a high level of detail of the tooth, bone and supporting tissues of the mouth. These X-rays allow dentists to :

• Find cavities
• Look at the tooth roots
• Check the health of the bony area around the tooth
• Determine if periodontal disease is an oral care issue
• See the status of developing teeth
• Otherwise, monitor good tooth health through prevention
