Why It Matters
This checklist is the foundation of your dental health journey with us. It helps
detect:
● Early signs of decay or gum disease
● Bite and jaw imbalances
● Muscle or joint disorders
● Risk factors for tooth loss
● Oral cancer or systemic conditions
● Cosmetic issues that affect your smile and confidence
By understanding the full picture of your oral health, we can create tailored,
minimally invasive, long-term treatment plans—from preventive care to full
mouth rehabilitation.
After the 35-point evaluation, you’ll receive:
● A clear explanation of findings
● High-resolution intraoral scan reports
● Photos or videos (when needed)
● Personalized treatment recommendations
● A plan to restore or maintain optimal oral health
● Sudden or severe tooth pain
● Broken or knocked-out teeth
● Swelling or infection
● Bleeding from gums or mouth
● Lost fillings or crowns
● After decay or old fillings are removed
● To fix chipped, cracked, or worn teeth
● To replace discoloured or leaking metal fillings
● Following trauma or mild fractures
● As part of a full smile rehabilitation
We use only the finest, most advanced materials—never compromising on quality.
• High-Quality Composites
Used for small to moderate restorations, these tooth-coloured materials are carefully
layered and sculpted to blend seamlessly with your natural teeth. They’re durable,
minimally invasive, and beautifully matched to your enamel shade.
• Metal-Free Ceramic Restorations
For larger or high-stress restorations, we offer all-ceramic inlays, onlays, and crowns.
These materials—such as zirconia or lithium disilicate—are strong, biocompatible, and
completely metal-free.
● Restores natural anatomy and bite
● Matches tooth shade and translucency
● Preserves maximum healthy tooth structure
● Strengthens and protects weakened teeth
● Safe for patients with metal allergies
● Designed using digital precision and iTero scanning
● Tooth Preservation: Minimal drilling; keeps your natural tooth strong and
intact
● No Crowns Unless Necessary: Avoids full-coverage crowns when possible
● Long-Term Strength: Mimics natural flex and reduces the risk of future
cracks
● Better Bonding: Superior sealing against bacterial leakage
● Natural Appearance: Tooth-coloured restorations that blend seamlessly
● Comfortable & Conservative: Less trauma to the tooth, fewer
complications
● Pain-free and efficient treatment under expert hands
● Use of rotary files for faster and more accurate canal shaping
● Apex locators ensure precise and complete cleaning
● Rubber dam isolation prevents contamination during the procedure
● Preserves your natural tooth and smile
● No known link to malignancy or systemic diseases
● Quick recovery and minimal post-operative discomfort
● Cost-effective and long-lasting solution
● Avoids tooth extraction and the need for complex replacements
● Mild tenderness or soreness may last 1–2 days
● Avoid chewing hard foods until the final crown is placed
● Maintain regular brushing, flossing, and dental visits
● Complete the crown placement as advised to prevent fracture
● Follow any prescribed medications if infection was present
Occasionally, a previously treated tooth may fail due to complex anatomy, missed canals, or
reinfection. We offer:
● Re-treatment using advanced techniques and tools
● Apicoectomy (Minor Surgery) if infection persists at the root tip
● Tooth replacement options (like implants) if saving the tooth is not viable
You may need a root canal if:
● You have persistent toothache, especially on biting
● A cavity has reached the nerve or pulp of the tooth
● There’s swelling, gum boil, or pus discharge near a tooth
● You’ve had trauma or a cracked/fractured tooth
● There’s an abscess or infection seen in X-rays
At Dental Designs, root canal treatment is done with the help of modern equipment and best
clinical protocols:
1. Digital Imaging & Diagnosis – To assess infection and root anatomy
2. Local Anaesthesia – Ensures a pain-free experience
3. Rubber Dam Isolation – Maintains a sterile and dry field
4. Cleaning the Canals – Infected pulp is removed using rotary files, which are
faster and more precise than traditional hand files
5. Apex Locator – An electronic device used to determine the exact length of the
canal, minimizing errors and improving treatment success
6. Disinfection & Sealing – The canals are thoroughly disinfected and filled with a
biocompatible material
7. Final Restoration – A crown is usually recommended to restore strength and
longevity In most cases, the entire process is completed in a single sitting.
Invisalign aligners are clear and discreet, allowing you to smile confidently throughout your treatment. They're also easy to remove.
Made with SmartTrack® material and guided by SmartStage® technology, Invisalign ensures gentle, controlled tooth movement delivering comfort and less pain than traditional braces.
Invisalign requires fewer clinic visits—typically every 6–8 weeks and lets you preview each stage of your smile transformation with ClinCheck® software for better treatment visibility.
Because aligners are removable, brushing and flossing remain part of your regular routine. This helps prevent plaque buildup, supports fresher breath, and promotes healthier teeth .
