Many of you may be wondering if you need a crown after root canal. You’re not alone. This is a common question many people have when they want to know more about the type of care they should receive after having to undergo a root canal.

A root canal procedure may be necessary to save your tooth from potential complications, such as an infection or pain that may spread to the surrounding tissue or jawbone. However, root canal procedures don’t always go smoothly, resulting in teeth that are fractured or weakened by the procedure.

A dental crown offers protection to your tooth and covers roots, prevent further damage to them. It can also improve strength to your tooth and increase its lifespan.

Even if a tooth looks to be in perfect condition after root canal treatment, it can still experience more damage over time. If you’ve ever cracked your tooth through something as simple as biting into an apple, you know how quickly teeth can develop new problems—even after they have been repaired.

For the ease and safety of patients who require dentures, we are offering the ‘One-Day Dentures’!

What exactly is the ‘One-Day Denture’ Treatment?

While most denture clinics in Bangalore, offer dentures that are fabricated with a series of multiple visits over several days to weeks, our ‘One-Day Denture’ allows you to experience the benefits of a fully functional denture almost immediately. They are also known as ‘Same Day Dentures’ or ‘Denture in a Day’ procedure.

This procedure is unique, as the patient receives fully-functional dentures, which are customized and can be fitted within 24 hrs. This allows the patient to experience an instant and beautiful look as a result of the procedure. With these dentures, individuals will be able to smile, speak, and eat with confidence. These dentures are measured, manufactured, and molded to a patient’s oral cavity and are inserted as quickly as within a day.

Single-day dentures make it possible for you to have aesthetically-pleasing dentures in less than 24 hours.

Who can opt for One-Day Denture?

Normally, a seasoned denturist should be able to determine and precisely suggest if you are the right candidate for these dentures.

An ideal denture candidate includes the patient who:

Is the completely missing the majority of teeth
Is an existing denture wearer and is willing for a replacement?
If having multiple loose teeth or/and already missing a couple of teeth are suggested to opt for dentures.

Tooth loss can be caused due to various reasons, including periodontal disease, facial/jaw injury, tooth decay and extraction, poor oral health, and natural aging. Dentures in a day are the perfect solutions for addressing tooth loss problems effectively, quickly, and affordably.

Why choose One-Day Denture?

With the outbreak of the COVID-19 pandemic, it is indeed risky especially for elderly patients to have multiple visits to the dentist.

Ceramic Crowns – Everything You Need To Know !

March 31, 2023 dev.abrar No Comments

What are E-Max crowns: Everything you need to know about these Ceramic Crowns

Has your dentist ever recommended an E max crown for you? If yes, let’s visit Credence Dental to get to know what these crowns exactly are. E-Max crowns are Dental Crowns made entirely with special ceramic material which is durable as well as aesthetically appealing. These special crowns material is helpful for reinforcing the tooth structure of your teeth and thus protecting it from further damage. The brand is often known as E max or simply max crowns which are used as an add on treatment after a root canal procedure

Advantages of E-Max crowns

E-Max crowns are a type of all-ceramic crown that are favored for its durable, attractive characteristics. Ceramic composed of lithium disilicate is used to make E-Max crowns. It is made from a single block lithium disilicate which makes it a very high strength crown. It is a superior grade substance that is regarded for its toughness, durability, and opaque properties. As the crown is translucent, it is said to be the greatest option for blending in with your natural teeth.

This property makes it a popular choice for restoration in your front teeth. There is no metal inside the crown so there will not be any blackish-gray line around the gum line which is esthetically non-pleasing.E-max crowns can help fix discolored or stained teeth, crooked teeth, chipped or cracked teeth decayed teeth, shape or form of teeth

How is it different from a Zirconium Crown?

E-Max and Zirconia both are metal-free dental crowns. Both are used as esthetic restorative materials. However, each material has unique characteristics that make them suitable for use for different occasions. The choice depends upon the dental condition and dentists recommendation. Zirconium Dioxide is a white crystalline oxide of zirconium. It is ceramic, also a strong material, resistant to wear, and difficult to crack for its mechanical properties. It is a biocompatible material that is very similar to the qualities of a genuine tooth. Zirconium and porcelain are the two materials used to create zirconia crowns. On the interior of the crown, zirconium is used while the exterior is molded from porcelain

Zirconium is pale in color, which makes it blend in well with natural tooth and prevents it from exhibiting unsightly lines like PFM crowns do. Zirconia crowns are more opaque compared to E-Max crowns. Therefore, dentists recommend zirconium crowns for back teeth , that is where esthetics is not of concern and they require sturdy material that can survive a lot of biting and chewing. Zirconium is recommended for dark teeth underneath because the opaqueness helps in covering the dark shade.

Zirconia vs E-Max crowns

Zirconia and E-Max crowns can be used to restore teeth that are severely decaying, missing, crooked, or otherwise damaged. Compared to earlier PFM crowns with metal lines, both materials are much better. Both materials are biocompatible with soft and hard tissues. E-Max crowns are more translucent. Patients who want their front teeth replaced may prefer E- max for its translucency. E-Max crowns can be used to replace back teeth as well contrary to the misconception that only zirconia crowns can be used to replace back teeth.

Despite the fact that E-Max crowns are translucent, the material can be shaped to be strong enough to replace back molars. Hence, both zirconia and E-Max crowns can be used for both front teeth and back teeth. Depending on the patient’s bite, if a patient has bruxism, it is better to go for zirconia. If not, E-Max may be the more aesthetic choice. Whether you use E-Max or zirconia crowns

It depends on how many teeth need to be replaced. While both are highly suited for replacing a single tooth, multiple usage in dental bridges or for adjacent teeth depends on dental consideration. Since it cannot provide the resistance needed by lengthy bridges, E-Max crowns are recommended on short bridges.

Ways to keep your E-Max prosthesis in good condition and trouble-free

Do not bite on your fingernails
Do not use your teeth to unclog any container
Use splints in ase, If you are a person who clenches teeth at night

Benefits of implant-supported dentures

November 3, 2022 dev.abrar No Comments

Are you tired of loose ill-fitting dentures and don’t feel like wearing your dentures at all?

Denture fitness is a widespread problem faced by multiple patients. There can be various reasons for the ill-fitting nature of dentures but don’t worry we have a solution for your dental concern which is implant-supported overdentures.

Implant-supported Dentures are a special type of prosthesis which use dental implants as the main source for stability and tight fix. In other words, implant-supported overdentures have a combined quality of dental implants and removable Dentures. So if we have an alternative to the route removable dentures with good stability and support why not opt for the same!!

Who can benefit from implant-supported overdentures?

If your old dentures are not comfortable for you and they just slip when you are speaking, Implant-supported overdentures can be a great option to look for. These Dentures provide a sound foundation, thereby improving chewing and speech efficiency. But the main requirement for placement of such dentures is excellent and sufficient density and thickness of residual bone available so that it can hold implants firmly in place.

How do implant-supported dentures function?

On the inner side of dentures, overdenture attachments are placed whose corresponding part is seated over the implants. Both these corresponding attachments fit into each other perfectly, thus preventing the moving or slippage of dentures.

Fixed versus removable prosthesis design

Most patients prefer fixed types of dentures to have the feel of natural teeth. Also in most situations with good bone present and if patients maintain adequate oral hygiene, a fixed implant will be a comfortable and suitable treatment option

As there is an extra cost associated with the fabrication of fixed dentures, they are costlier than removable ones. However, implant-supported dentures appear to have fewer routine maintenance requirements.

Utilization of two or four implants leads to excellent function and gives good support. During the treatment planning, it is important to ensure all criteria of the amount of bone present, and the space present is adequate so that the fabrication of denture is not vulnerable to fracture

Steps involved

Initially, your dentist will evaluate entirely to check if you are the ideal candidate for the procedure. This will involve clinical examination and medical and dental history.

If you are fit for treatment, the next step will be of extraction of all remaining teeth. Following this, a healing period of a few months will be needed to allow for bone to regenerate and this is followed by further CT scan to evaluate the condition of the bone.

Immediately after tooth extraction, a temporary denture will be given.

The next step involved the placement of implants which is a surgical procedure carried out under local anesthesia which will again be followed by a healing period. The waiting period after the placement of implants is of 3 to 4 months. After a few months depending on healing next step will be of placement of screw caps for implants following which measurements will be made and sent to a lab for fabrication of overdenture.

Once overdenture is received from the lab they are attached to the implants placed in the jaws with fine precision so that the denture gets engaged with the implants and prevents any movement of the denture.

What are the Advantages of implant-supported overdentures?

For some patients who are not satisfied with the removable dentures because of poor fit or loose nature of denture, implant-supported overdentures can be a boon for any form of defects in gums as generally, the normal Dentures become loose if any growth occurs on gum or if the bone height is reducing.

Patients have superior mastectomy, functional and quality score
Maintenance of oral hygiene is easier
Aesthetics is superior
It’s a long-term fixed kind of treatment option.
