Root canal treatment or RCT is how we save badly decayed or painful infected teeth, instead of removing them. During root canal treatment, an Endodontist (root canal specialist) cleans the infected tooth and root canals and fills it with a biocompatible material. Earlier, root canal treatment were tiresome, painful and required multiple appointments. Now, with the advent of modern technology, RCTs are done painlessly and in a single visit at Crowns & Roots.
Don’t delay…painkillers are only a temporary solution, you may end up losing a tooth! Call us for a consultation today!

Root canal Treatment
Smile Designing
An attractive smile is the best asset to a confident personality. But many people are unhappy with their smiles because of crooked teeth, gaps between teeth, protruded teeth, missing teeth, yellow teeth, broken teeth. Smile designing or smile makeovers are interdisciplinary procedures to change your smile from unattractive to perfect….just the way you want it. It includes orthodontic treatment, veneers, bleaching, implants, composite dental fillings, tooth jewellery….one or many procedures done in sync to give you a whole new smile.
Composite Restorations
Teeth with cavities or decay can cause food accumululation, infection and if neglected, may need a root canal. Broken teeth cannot be used for chewing and look unappealing. These teeth need to be REBUILD. Dental composites are modern tooth-colored materials that are used not just to fill your teeth, but to rebuild it to its original form. They look so natural that they are indistinguishable from real teeth. They also have excellent strength and durability.
Crowns & Bridges
Crowns are metal or ceramic coverings given to protect a badly destroyed, root canal treated or fractured tooth. A crown helps to make the tooth strong enough to withstand chewing forces. Crowns are also used to build back broken teeth to their original natural look, shape and size. So you can use that root canal treated tooth confidently for chewing, smile confidently without anyone noticing you have a fake tooth!
Bridge is used to replace a missing tooth or teeth, but nowadays, implants are preferred for the same.
Implants
Implants are biocompatible titanium screws that are used to replace single or multiple missing teeth.The implant is surgically placed in the jaw bone and is allowed to fuse with the bone.Dental implants has revolutionized the field of dentistry. We consider it our no 1 option to replace missing teeth. Like diamonds, implants last forever! This advanced dental treatment has become increasingly approachable and affordable to the patients and has become the no 1 choice of our patients too.
Orthodontics
Not everyone is born with a smile like Madhuri Dixit.If you have crooked teeth, crowded or overlapped teeth, forwardly placed upper teeth, teeth with gaps, inability to close your lips properly due to protruding teeth, then you are a right candidate for braces (Orthodontic treatment). If you wish to change your smile painlessly and with long-term results, braces are the best choice!At Crowns and Roots, we offer a wide variety of braces and invisible aligners to suit your choice and your budget.

Teeth Cleaning
We use our teeth every day, but many a times, we are lax in cleaning and brushing our teeth.With time, deposits like plaque and calculus and stains accumulate on our teeth. It is vitally important to get these cleaned routinely (once a year). This is a part of maintenance protocol to keep your teeth and gums healthy.Professional teeth cleaning is called Oral prophylaxis. We at Crowns & Roots make dental cleaning an enjoyable and relaxing experience! We do not use sharp hand instruments, instead we have a state-of-art P5 Newtron Ultrasonic Scalar!After cleaning, we also polish the teeth to smooth glossiness.

We at Crowns & roots use the best Pola Office bleach sourced from USA for safe bleaching and predictably great results. This simple 45 minute procedure is truly life-changing. Bleaching must be done by qualified professionals in the clinic. Home-remedies may result in sensitive teeth, chemical burns on gums or worse!
Wisdom Tooth Surgery
Wisdom teeth or third molars are the last teeth in the 4 corners of your jaw. These pesky teeth erupt between 18-30 yrs of age, when all other teeth have erupted and jaw growth is complete. Because of this, these latecomers do not have space in the jaws! So they fight with their neighbours for space, try to erupt in weird angles and harm cheeks and gums. Wisdom tooth pain is simply terrible! It not only affectes the jaw, but sometimes radiates to the ear, temples and neck. Wisdom tooth extraction is the permanent solution to this problem.
If you have wisdom tooth pain, book an appointment with us. Our Oral & Maxillofacial surgeon will remove the tooth surgically in the clinic in a single visit under local anesthesia and following strict sterilization norms.
Pediatric Dentistry
Baby teeth (milk teeth) are extremely important! They help your child eat, chew, smile and speak. More importantly, they need to be in the mouth till their successors (the permanent teeth) erupt, because they hold the place for the permanent teeth. Remember, do not neglect your kid’s oral health. Kids do not complain till it hurts a lot, and that is usually too late! Get your kids to Crowns & Roots for regular dental check-ups every 6 months, and let us worry about their dental wellness!
Dr Janhavi Naik is the Panel dentist of the famous ´baby & mom´ website Firstcry.com and Worldofmom.com. She counsels that the first dental appointment for the child should be at 1 yrs age
Gum Surgery
Your gums are the tissue that holds your teeth in place, so healthy gums are extremely important. Generally, gums remain healthy by proper brushing, flossing, gum massage and regular professional dental cleaning to remove plaque and tartar. Sometimes, periodontal surgery may be needed to treat certain gum diseases and conditions, such as gingivitis or periodontitis. This type of surgery is commonly known as gum surgery. This may be indicated by our Periodontist.
