FAQs

A Plethora of solutions to all your questions and dilemmas, melt away any confusion or doubts you may have

When you have lost teeth but are unable or unwilling to acquire dentures, bridges, or crowns, dental implants are required. Because the effects of removing or losing a tooth and doing nothing might worsen over time, it is crucial to replace a missing tooth.

Dental implants have a number of advantages. They mimic your natural teeth in appearance and function, can increase your self-esteem, are practical, long-lasting, and improve your overall dental health. They also support your ability to speak, feel comfortable, and chew. In contrast to alternatives like dentures, dental implants do not need to be taken out and you can brush, floss, eat, and even sleep with them in.

The time required for dental operations varies depending on the procedure. It should only take about 10 minutes for a dental check-up, but it may take a bit longer if there are any problem. Teeth cleaning can take 20-30 minutes, during this period, the patient will rest comfortably in a dental chair while we inspect the teeth. Restorative procedures could last up to 20 minutes, this is a method for treating decaying teeth. However, the time required can vary depending on the type of filler used and the extent of the decayed region. The length of time you spend in the dental chair for a root canal depends on various factors, including the severity of the infection and the specific tooth.

Sedation dentistry is another term for sleep dentistry. Many people are so afraid of going to a dentist so that they refuse any treatment. People who avoid dentists due to fear may find that sleep dentistry alleviates some of their anxiety. Sedation can be utilized for a variety of operations, from invasive surgeries to simple dental cleaning. The severity of the fear determines how it is employed. Medication is used in sleep dentistry to assist patients relax during dental operations. Patients are normally awake, except for those under general Anaesthesia.

The general recommendation is that you should see the dentist every six months. According to studies, persons with no difficulties should go once a year, while those with dental disorders should go every 3 or 4 months.
