Dental crowns are tooth-shaped caps placed over a tooth to restore its shape, size, strength, and appearance. They are often needed to protect weak or damaged teeth, cover dental implants, or support dental bridges.

During a root canal, the infected or inflamed pulp inside a tooth is removed, and the inside of the tooth is cleaned and sealed. This procedure helps save a tooth that would otherwise require extraction due to severe decay or infection.

Recovery time can vary, but most people recover fully within a few days to a week after wisdom tooth extraction. Following post-operative care instructions, such as taking prescribed medications and avoiding certain foods, can speed up recovery.

Dental implants are titanium posts surgically placed into the jawbone to replace missing teeth. They offer a durable and natural-looking solution for tooth loss. Your dentist will assess your oral health to determine if you are a candidate for dental implants.

Communicating your concerns with your dentist can help alleviate anxiety. Techniques such as deep breathing, listening to music, or using sedation dentistry options can also help you feel more comfortable during dental procedures.

Dental fillings can last for many years, but their lifespan can vary depending on factors such as the material used and your oral hygiene habits. Your dentist will monitor your fillings during regular check-ups and recommend replacement if necessary.
