FAQ's

Single sitting RCT can be done in patients with acute infection and when no pus formation is present. It is painless and saves multiple trips and multiple jabs of anesthesia at the dental clinic.

Your dentist may recommend a Re-RCT when the older RCT was not done properly and infection has remained behind. Also if re-infection has taken place in an old RCT, this usually happens when crown is not placed after RCT.

: Imagine a room with 4 walls and a ceiling, if 1 or more walls has collapsed; it’s not possible to hoist the ceiling over it. Similarly, if 1 or more walls of a tooth have collapsed due to cavities, after RCT, a post (made of metal or fiber) is place to reinforce the broken tooth wall and help with increasing surface area to place a crown or to make the tooth more viable for chewing.

When the infection is chronic and the patient has been ignoring for a long time, there is pus, swelling, inflammation and severe pain, multiple sittings are needed to drain the pus and slowly restore the tooth health with medicaments placed inside the tooth canals and antibiotics.

Yes, implant surgery is a very minor procedure and is completely safe for everyone but we have to take little precautions and plan the procedure in a certain way in the patients with medical conditions like diabetes, blood pressure, and cardiac problems.

PROSTHODONTICS

  • PFM Crowns

    These are crowns with a metal framework inside and a porcelain (white) layer outside. They are usually indicated for posterior teeth.

  • Zirconia Crowns

    These are complete ceramic crowns which are aesthetic and biocompatible. They resemble natural teeth perfectly owing to our precise and reliable lab work at Family Dental Dwarka. These are usually indicated for anterior or front teeth.

  • E-Max Crowns

    Ceramic crowns which are much more aesthetic and translucent which make them look like our natural tooth.

  • Complete Denture

    If the patient does not have a single tooth in his mouth then this is an option. It’s a plate with a complete set of teeth which is custom made.

  • Implant-supported Denture

    In case the patient is missing all his teeth since a long time, the jaw bone on which the denture is placed tends to wear out or shrink, due to this it does not support the denture properly. To increase retention and stability of the denture, implants are placed at specific sites so that the underside of the denture can hold on to the implant heads and the denture gets the desired support that it is missing.

  • Removable Partial Denture

    These are advised to patients who have few missing teeth. These are rigid (with clasps) & flexible which is made up of silicon.

FAQ's

After RCT, all the infected parts of the tooth are removed, due to which it’s strength decreases. To reinforce the strength of the tooth and restore its chewing surface in order to eat food properly, a crown is needed.

No. since the RCT has already been done, there is no sensation in the tooth. You will not feel the procedure at all.

The crown procedure takes only 2 sittings.

We work with only the best labs in Delhi and a nation-wide popular lab called Dentcare in Kerala. Till date no patient has been dissatisfied with the quality and precision of our lab work.

A strange sensation is felt after getting a crown for the next 1-2 days since it’s a new device in the mouth. This is in no way painful or uncomfortable.

Althought both kinds of crowns work for all teeth, owing to simply their esthetic quality, PFM crowns are usually indicated for back teeth as they are slightly darker in colour. Zirconia or E-max crowns are generally indicated for front teeth as they resemble natural teeth more.

At Family Dental Dwarka, we don’t believe in overcharging our patients for the sake of expensive dental treatment.

ORTHODONTICS

Braces are the most popular means of treating crowded, spaced or forwardly placed teeth since centuries. Once every decade technology takes a leap and unlike olden times, the newer braces are much more comfortable, faster and less visible. We at Family Dental Dwarka provide the most economical braces packages in Delhi NCR.

  • Traditional braces

    They are the oldest form of braces and the most widely used variety. They are of 2 types, Metal braces (slightly more visible, more sturdy), Ceramic braces (Slightly less visible, preferred by girls and older teens). Traditional braces are ligated (attached) to the main u-shaped wire by means of an elastic called module. The modules are changed at every visit, but it has been observed in patients treated over many years that

    • Extractions are necessary in most cases
    • Tightening is compulsory every month
    • Modules get discoloured by food stains
    • Food collects more around modules
    • The tightening process done at every visit results in slight soreness for next 2-3 days

  • Self-Ligating or Automatic Braces

    They also come in a Metal and Ceramic variety. Self-ligating braces do not need modules for tightening. They have a built-in clasp which tightens over the main wire itself, not needed external tightening. This gives the system and edge over the traditional braces.

    • Extractions can be avoided in most cases
    • Self activated, tightening not compulsory every month
    • Ideal for busy students, more comfortable with less visits
    • No modules, no discoloration
    • Smaller in size, less visible, less food build up
    • No tightening needed, no soreness after every visit

FAQ's

The ideal time to get braces is after all the milk teeth of the child have been replaced by permanent teeth, although this age can vary in children due to different eating habits.

This age coincides with puberty in children; any changes made to the teeth are readily accepted by the body.

Owing to newer advancements in the field of dentistry especially digital scanning procedures, there is no upper age limit of braces treatment. Adults of all age can undergo this treatment.

After the treatment is over, the teeth breathe freely after months and immediately try to go back to their original position. To remind them of their new position, they are restrained or held in place by a device called retainers which prevents them from going back to their original position.

Retainers can be removable (for children), invisible (for teens) or fixed at the back surface (for adults).

They need to be worn for 6-12 months depending on the original condition of teeth.

We understand that in growing years, it’s difficult to put eating restrictions on children or teens, let’s face it, we love pizza too!

There are simple food restrictions with braces, which if followed can allow you to eat all your favourite foods with ease.

The rule is never to eat from the front teeth, always break or cut food into small pieces and eat from the back teeth, the chewing continues but the biting stops.

Avoid extremely hard or sticky things, especially raw apple or guava, popcorn, walnuts, five star, éclairs etc.

o If you are innovative and careful you can eat almost anything. If craving pizza, avoid the crust and eat the middle with fork and knife. If craving ice cream, avoid the cone ones and choose the cup ones. If craving chocolate, avoid the fruit and nut ones; choose a plain one, slightly microwaved.

PEDODONTICS (CHILD DENTISTRY)

Child dentistry in Family Dental Dwarka is handled by our seasoned Pedodontist or Child Specialist who has special training in handling the young ones of all ages with ultimate patience and care.

The clinic has experience in dealing with children as young as 6 months and as old as 12 years. At our practice we believe that simply removing milk teeth thinking they will be replaced in the future is not the solution. Milk teeth are place holders for permanent teeth which erupt at their designated time. If this schedule is disturbed then teeth become crowded or forwardly placed and the child ends up getting braces.

To avoid more serious treatment in the future, milk teeth should be preserved by simple means such as root canals and crowns for milk teeth by a specialist.

  • Painless Root Canal for kids

    When the milk tooth gets infected, the child presents with pain, swelling and difficulty in eating. If the permanent tooth is not due for more than 3 months, the milk tooth is retained by root canal.

    This procedure at Family dental Dwarka is done by our Pedodontist. It is virtually painless, comfortable and is done at the pace most suited to the patient and parent mentalities.

    We try our best not to use anesthesia so that the patient is more cooperative and trusting. In cases where anesthesia is needed, the finest needle used for insulin injections is used, so that the child barely feels the prick and is more cooperative with the treatment.

  • Crowns for Children

    After the root canal procedure, the tooth loses part of its structure and the child is unable to eat with it. A crown or cap is put to restore tooth substance and tooth strength.

    If the tooth is at the back and not very visible, a Stainless Steel crown is put. Depending on the child’s cooperation, this is usually a single sitting procedure and is absolutely pain free.

    If the tooth is in front, we can use semi permanent Composite Strip crowns or Polycarbonate crowns. These are tooth colored crowns and once the tooth becomes loose or the permanent tooth starts erupting, they can be easily removed painlessly.

  • Space Maintainer

    When a milk tooth is lost at an early age and the permanent tooth is not due for more than 3 months, a small device is put in its place taking support from neighboring teeth.

    This prevents the collapse of the space left behind by the tooth, which will be needed for the permanent tooth to erupt in future.

    In case this is not done, the remaining teeth drift into this space and occupy it, causing crowding, forward placement of teeth and random teeth positions, making the child a future candidate for braces.

  • Anti Cavity Sealants

    Sealants are used for both children and adults to seal the depressions on the chewing surface of back teeth. This thin liquid flows into all the small depressions where food usually collects and causes cavities.

    By sealing these areas, cavities can usually be avoided in the future in young children.

    These are done at the age of 3, 5,7 and 9 years.

  • Fluoride Treatment for Children

    Fluoride is needed to support healthy enamel and provide an outer protective layer for the tooth.

    In some cases where a child has white spots on teeth, has been consuming low fluoridated ground water or generally has weak enamel, external fluoride application is done.

    It also helps in remineralization or strengthening of weakened areas of enamel.

COSMETIC DENTISTRY

  • Zoom Whitening

    FAQ's

    It lasts from 12-24 months but the success of treatment depends on certain eating habits and avoiding some food groups that can stain teeth.

    One week after whitening, heavily colored foods and drinks like red wine, black coffee, dark colas, dark teas etc should be avoided. Smoking is also responsible for staining teeth after whitening is completed. Even after one week, these things should be avoided as much as possible to maintain the whiter teeth.

    People with multiple crowns and veneers especially in the anterior region are not a candidate as the artificial teeth do not pick up the new shade.

  • Smile Makeover/Veneers

    Veneers are thin tooth colored shells that cover the front surface of a tooth to change its appearance in the desired manner.

    Veneers show instant smile correction and are the best means of smile makeover in a short span of time.
