tooth jewellery
A jewel is fixed on the tooth surface. The jewel does not damage tooth tissues and has no side effects - except for the increased charm of your smile. Call it an oral fashion statement to stand out among ordinary mortals or simply an effort to blend in with the bold and the beautiful. If somebody thinks he or she was better off without tooth jewellery, it can be easily removed without any side effects on the dental tooth structure as the procedure is non-invasive.

dental fillings
Dental fillings are a common and widely used treatment in modern dentistry. Dental fillings are typically made of dental amalgam, a metallic compound containing mercury that has been used for fillings for many decades. Fillings made of this amalgam are of a metallic hue and can give a grey tinge to the tooth.One of the most exciting developments in dentistry is the introduction of tooth colored fillings that can exactly match the appearance of an unfilled tooth to give unrivalled aesthetics.

dental bridge
A bridge is made up of two crowns for the teeth on either side of the gap. These false teeth are called pontics and can be made from gold, alloys, porcelain, or a combination of these materials. Dental bridges are supported by natural teeth or implants.Distribute the forces in the bite properly by replacing missing teeth.Traditional bridges: involve creating a crown for the tooth or implant on either side of the missing tooth, with a pontic in between. Traditional bridges are the most common type of bridge and are made of either porcelain fused to metal or ceramics.Cantilever bridges: are used when there are adjacent teeth on only one side of the missing tooth or teeth.

dental brace
Braces use steady, gentle pressure over time to move teeth into their proper positions. They don't look like they're doing much just sitting there. But in fact, every moment or your orthodontic treatment, there's something happening in your mouth. The brackets we place on your teeth and the main arch wire that connects them are the two main components. The bracket is a piece of specially shaped metal or ceramic that we affix to each tooth. Then we bend the arch wire to reflect your 'ideal" bite-what we want you to look like after treatment. The wire threads through the brackets and, as the wire tries to return to its original shape, it applies pressure to actually move your teeth. Picture your tooth resting in your jaw bone. With pressure on one side from the arch wire, the bone on the other side gives way. The tooth moves. New bone grows in behind. It may look like nothing is happening but we're making a new smile here. Thanks to new materials and procedures, all this happens much quicker than ever before. It's kind of an engineering feat.

Dental Crowns
A dental crown is a cap that covers a damaged tooth to protect what remains of the tooth structure, providing you with a strong, long-lasting layer of protection against tooth fracture.Dental crowns are used to treat teeth that have lost a significant part of its structure, which can happen as a result of tooth decay or the failure of a large filling. In some cases, dental crowns can also be used on teeth that have been worn down to the extent of vulnerability.Historically, many materials starting from Gold to various alloys were used to make the crowns, This was convenient as gold and other alloys were easily available & strong. But aesthetically these crowns were not very pleasing. The introduction of porcelainceramics in dentistry paved the way to a more aesthetic crowns that matched the shades of the natural tooth.
