Restorative Dentistry

A ‘root canal’ is the term that refers to the natural cavity or space within the center of the tooth. It is made up of the pulp chamber which provides nutrients and nerves to each tooth and the ‘canals’ that connect to each other or to the surface of the root of the tooth. At Esthetic Dental Clinic in Delhi, a root canal is done with unmatched precision to treat and save a tooth that is damaged, infected or badly decayed. The treatment involves :-

# Removal of the nerves and pulp

# Cleaning and sealing the infected area inside the tooth.

Overdentures are a type of denture fitted over or attached to either root-filled tooth roots or dental implants. This technique gives the denture greater stability, support and retention. Overdentures are a more stable alternative to traditional denture fixtures. Before fitting overdentures the dental practitioner will need to establish tooth root condition and suitability for treatment. Tooth roots need to be healthy and free from infection. Patients who have had successful root canal treatment may be good candidates for overdentures.
