About Dr. Shailaja K Prasad's Dental Practice

We believe in Evidence Based Dentistry being the highest standard of care in dentistry. To this end we follow the Clinical Guidelines set by the Faculty of Dental Surgery, Royal college of Surgeons of England. My team and I believe in minimally invasive and hygienic dentistry. We will provide you with the best options for tooth conservation. We take time in explaining each procedure and will discuss the pros and cons of each treatment with you. We will inform you of treatment alternatives and encourage you to make an informed choice. We encourage you to ask questions pertaining to the treatment, the procedure involved and what to expect after the procedure. We provide a clean and hygienic environment with special care being taken to seal instruments in pouches and autoclave them after each use, thus ensuring no compromise to our patients health and safety. All patient water glasses, aprons, suction tips, injection needles, local anaesthetic cartridges and polishing wheels used are disposable. Distilled water manufactured at our practice is used through the entire dental unit. 

We make every attempt to address your concerns as we work towards a healthy mouth and smile!

A crown is recommended on your root canal treated tooth that is now restored with a very large filling which makes it prone to fracture. Crowns also help close gaps and restore teeth that are worn down, decayed or fractured.

Dental Implants

A dental implant is made of titanium and is screwed into your bone in place of the missing tooth root. This is done under local anaesthesia and is therefore a painless procedure. The titanium implant fuses with the bone over the course of 3-4 months. This locks the implant in place. This area is then re-entered to facilitate fabrication of the crown. A mould is taken to make a new crown over the implant. This crown will look, feel and function like your other natural teeth.

Non-Surgical Extractions

 

Surgical Extractions

 

Wisdom Tooth Extraction

Impacted wisdom teeth are surgically removed under local anaesthesia. In this procedure a small cut in the gum adjacent to the wisdom tooth is made. Bone surrounding the tooth is taken away with a drill. The tooth itself may have to be cut into a few pieces that are then individually removed. A stitch or two in place following surgery facilitates excellent healing, which usually takes one week. Depending upon the type of stitch in place it may or may not have to be removed (One week later).

Orthodontist Consultation

This treatment is done to correct misaligned teeth to improve the bite, which in turn facilitates better health, aesthetics and function of the dentition. It is recommended that children undergo regular dental check ups. This will allow the dentist to diagnose any anomaly or tendency for malocclusion. Necessary steps taken at the appropriate time to correct this will allow for the best possible outcome.
 

Periodontist Consultation

 

Root canals

In this type of treatment the decayed part of the tooth is cleaned following which, the nerves from within the tooth and its root, are removed. The canals within the root are subsequently shaped and cleaned to free them of offending debris and bacteria. These are then filled with a special inert material. After the root canal filling a core filling is done. Depending on the case a ‘post’ may be placed in the root canal space. Placing a protective cap over the tooth, for which a measurement needs to be taken, follows this. Number of Appointments : One to four, depending upon the case.
 

Teeth Cleaning

 

Scaling and Root Planing

This is a simple procedure, which is carried out using an ultrasonic scaler. Its tip vibrates to remove tartar and other deposits from your tooth surface. This does not damage the tooth enamel. Polishing your teeth follows this procedure. Scaling and Polishing is recommended ideally once every 6 months.
 

Teeth Whitening

 

Chemical Teeth Whitening

Your teeth are exposed to a higher concentration of bleaching agent along with or without a special light. This will take approximately 45 minutes for both arches.
 

Home Whitening Kits

This is done, by yourself at home, using special soft trays and a lower concentration of bleaching agent, provided by your dentist. Verbal and written instructions will be provided.
 

Treatment of Dental Abscess
