Dentistry & Maxillofacial Surgery

Highly sophisticated unit that caters from simple tooth ache to tooth implants, from simple to most complex oral and dental surgeries.

Dentistry in India has advanced by leaps and bounds over the last two decades. Now we are in an age of Preventive Dentistry where, by means of SIX MONTHLY CHECK-UPS we can prevent untimely loss of teeth due to its decay. The time when people only visited the dentist when they had a tooth ache is long gone.

Some Salient Points:

• With the advent of root canal treatment most of the decayed teeth can be salvaged and preserved.
• With the use of fixed bridges and dental implants missing teeth can also be replaced permanently.
• Discoloured teeth can be made to look white and attractive again.
• Oral cancer if detected early can be treated successfully.
• Prominent jaws can be treated with surgery to get good cosmetic results.
• Fractured jaws are now treated with mini plates thus avoiding the process of having to wire them together for 6 weeks.
