Question 1

Root Canal Therapy

Accepted Answer

The tooth's supply of blood and nerves is called dental pulp. It has all the blood vessels and connective tissue necessary to maintain the tooth's health. The pulp of the tooth will become infected when it becomes inflamed. The procedure of removing damaged pulp is known as root canal therapy, also referred to as endodontics.
 
For a variety of reasons, dental pulp can become irritated, inflamed, or infected. Deep-seated decay and facial trauma are just a couple of them. This infection can spread if it is not treated, leading to excruciating pain and dental disease.

Dentistry in Milton steps in a root canal surgery
​

X-rays are used to examine the root's structure and check for bone infection in the vicinity.
The region surrounding the tooth is numbed with local anaesthesia.
To prevent saliva during treatment, a rubber dam is placed around the tooth.
To access the pulp and decayed nerve tissue, a hole is drilled through the tooth.
To clean and shape the root canal walls, thin files are inserted into the access hole.
To ensure that the canals are clean and shaped to the apex, a radiograph is taken.
Once everything is confirmed, the canals are thoroughly cleaned before being sealed and filled with 'gutta percha,' a paste and rubber compound.

Question 2

Crowns

Accepted Answer

A damaged or broken tooth is "capped" with a crown. It can enhance the look, shape, or alignment of teeth and is frequently used for aesthetic reasons. A crown also provides flexibility because it can be positioned even on top of an implant that already exists, improving function.
 
Typically, porcelain or ceramic is used to create this prosthetic device. Dentistry Milton makes every effort to match the colour of the crown to that of your natural teeth. Gold or acrylic can also be used on occasion. These materials are frequently used for back teeth because they are typically stronger.

Question 3

Bridges

Accepted Answer

Dentistry Milton often recommend a bridge if one or more teeth are missing. Many patients aren’t bothered by missing teeth. But if the resulting gaps aren’t filled, the remaining teeth can shift into the empty spaces over time. This could end up causing chewing problems and a bad bite. A severe imbalance can also lead to gum disease and jaw dysfunction.

Question 4

Partial or Full Dentures

Accepted Answer

Before beginning treatment, your mouth will be thoroughly examined. Your teeth will be captured in impressions by our dental team, which will be used to create your personalised dentures. These removable devices, a more affordable option to cosmetic dentistry, can increase your confidence and enhance your quality of life in general.
​
Partials consist of 1 or more artificial teeth attached by gum coloured plastic base.
​
Full Dentures or 'false teeth' are held in place by suction and is ideal when all your teeth are missing.

Question 5

Dental Implants

Accepted Answer

A damaged or broken tooth is "capped" with a crown. It can enhance the look, shape, or alignment of teeth and is frequently used for aesthetic reasons. A crown also provides flexibility because it can be positioned even on top of an implant that already exists, improving function.
 
Dental implants are a simple and straightforward method to complete your smile, the team at Dentistry in Milton  have extensive experience with dental implant treatments.
​
A dental implant is a prosthetic tooth used to replace missing or damaged teeth. 
The implantation of a frame into the jawbone to serve as the fake tooth's root is the first step in dental implant therapy. 
The prosthetic tooth looks, feels, and bites just like a natural tooth.
