Orthodontics Why do we need braces or orthodontic appliances? Not everyone is gifted with a Hollywood smile. For some, the size of the jaw is larger than the teeth size – resulting in teeth with spaces. For those whom the jaw size is smaller, the teeth happen to be crowded or overlapping. This also occurs due to childhood decay which might have resulted in the loss of space. For some with mouth breathing habits (due to deviated nasal septum or chronic allergies) – the face seems to belong For some the teeth are forwardly placed – it may have been a result of habits like thumb sucking or tongue thrusting. They may not be able to close their lips fully. This may also result in an open bite where the front teeth do not meet together. Whatever the problem, it can be corrected and set right through some appliances and braces. The science of “straightening your teeth” is called orthodontics and the doctor who corrects it is called an “orthodontist” What is Orthodontics?

ROOT CANAL TREATMENT Tooth Structure CROWN : This is the part of the tooth you can see above the gumline. ROOT : This part of the tooth sits in the bone below the gum. The root of your tooth is usually twice as long as the crown, the part you see above the gumline. Why is the Root Canal performed? The pulp is the living tissue of the tooth with blood supply and nerve supply. Once dental caries (decay ) involves the pulp, the pulp gets infected causing pain. The aim of the root canal treatment is to remove the infected pulp. This is done by removing the infected pulp with files in the pulp chamber and cleaning and shaping the root canals and sealing the canal with a filling material.
