Root canal treatment is the removal of the infected soft tissue within the tooth and its replacement by an artificial inert ‘filling’ material. This procedure basically saves the tooth and eliminates dental pain.

RESTORATIONS (Tooth Fillings)


Cavities or old discoloured restorations are replaced by tooth coloured composite materials. Great care is taken to maintain the natural shape and characteristics of the original tooth thereby making them indistinguishable from adjoining tooth structure using Bioclear matrix system,USA and finest brands of composite materials, thus enabling us to mimic tooth structure to the tee and allow no distinction to the human eye between the natural tooth structure and the added composite material.


Restorations are recommended for those who want to restore the function, integrity and morphology of a missing tooth structure resulting from decay or physical injury to the tooth.

TO CORRECT : -

• Stained
• Chips
• Fractures
• Gaps
• Stains


The Procedure is long lasting as the material is durable and as easy to maintain as your natural tooth structure.

A detailed consultation should be done with the dentist to understand the advantages and disadvantages. X – ray(radiograph) is taken to check the status of the affected tooth. After it is decided that restoration is the treatment of choice, your dentist will proceed further.
