Root Canal Treatment
The root canal treatment procedure, also known as endodontic treatment, is a common procedure in modern dentistry that is used to remove inflamed or infected tissue from inside a tooth.
A root canal procedure involves the removal of pulp that is infected or inflamed. The pulp chamber and root canal are completely cleaned out and refilled to protect the area from further damage.
Root canal treatment can help to maintain the function of the teeth so that patients may continue to chew effectively using normal biting force. It also helps to maintain the natural aesthetic appearance of the tooth, in contrast to alternative options, such as dental implants. Additionally, root canal treatment can help to protect other teeth in the mouth from excessive strain and possible damage, as may occur if only one side of the mouth is used.
The dentist is then able to drill into the crown of the tooth to open it. This allows specialized dental instruments to be inserted into the pulp chamber and root canals to clean the inflamed or infected pulp from the area. The remaining space is then cleaned completely and shaped to make space for a filling, which will replace the pulp in the tooth.The root canal can then be filled with a suitable biocompatible material, such as gutta-percha. Adhesive dental cement is also usually used to ensure that the root canal is properly sealed and to prevent future infections in the area. A Ceramic or metal crown is cemented over the root canal treated tooth to increase strength and prevent fracture of the tooth.

Invisible Braces (also known as dental braces, braces, orthodontic cases, or cases) are devices used in orthodontics that align and straighten teeth and help position them with regard to a person’s bite. Like in any other conventional braces like metal or ceramic, orthodontics apply forces on the teeth to bring about gentle movements of the teeth. The similar force is applied with aligner or invisible aligners, only difference is in this the patient is at will to remove the brace for eating and brushing rest of the time he has to put it on. The forces used in these aligners are planned in such a way that say the patient has a treatment of 10 months, we divide these 10 months with aligners which are planned for multiple movements of teeth. In each box of aligners there are multiple packets used for one patient. Each month the patient has two sets of aligners, each set is owned for two weeks. Every other week the patient has to go to the next set. The computer plans the movement from set no-1 to set no-20 in a designated way meaning it should move from point A to point B in between these points we have 20 sets divided on the system, it is replicated into the box of aligners that is how this system works.
