Tooth or teeth

extracted and sutures are placed.Patients with systemic complications like Diabetes or
Heart Ailments like Angina, CAD, Hypertension,
Thyroid problems, Cancer patients are given specific
care accordingly along with the necessary pre medication.For patients who are allergic to local anesthesia or are
apprehensive, facilities are there to provide the procedures

Dentures
afford their wearers a better quality of life. Appearance,
eating, speaking, and retention of remaining teeth are all
positive results obtained when a denture is worn to replace
missing teeth. Dentures also help to protect other teeth
from drifting and loss. |

Implants
really are a boon for patients who till now had to be
satisfied with ill fitting removable dentures. These
dentures usually dislodge while sneezing or shouting loudly.
As is shown in the second picture implants are placed at
strategic locations to support the denture.
