Tooth Extraction is a process that helps to remove a damaged tooth in the mouth. General dentists extract teeth that cannot be restored through oral treatments.

It is a restorative treatment for patients who have cracked, chipped, or discolored teeth. A dental cap is fabricated and placed on the damaged tooth to conceal it. It is customized to adhere to the unique measurements of the patients' teeth.
A missing tooth in the mouth can be restored through dental implant treatment. The dentist places a titanium implant into the jawbone, which mimics the tooth's root. An artificial tooth is placed on the abutment placed over the implant. It helps to provide a functional tooth to the patient.
Patients who have undergone root canal therapy due to cavities or tooth decay are eligible for a dental filling. Several materials like resin or metal fill the holes created inside the tooth after root canal therapy. A filling helps seal the tooth and protects it from bacteria and infections.
