About Our Dental Care

Comprehensive Dental Care for Every Smile

Good oral health is an important part of overall health and well-being. Regular dental check-ups can help identify potential problems early and support the long-term health of your teeth and gums.

At Sri Giri Poly Clinic, we focus on understanding each patient's concerns, assessing their dental needs, and explaining suitable care options in a clear and friendly manner.

Our approach emphasises prevention, patient education, comfort, and treatment recommendations based on individual needs.

Our Dental Services

1. General Dental Check-Ups

Routine dental examinations help assess the condition of your teeth, gums, and overall oral health. Regular visits can help identify early signs of tooth decay, gum problems, and other dental concerns.

2. Toothache and Dental Pain

Tooth pain may occur due to tooth decay, infection, sensitivity, gum problems, or dental injury. A dental examination can help identify the cause and determine appropriate treatment.

3. Tooth Decay and Dental Fillings

Tooth decay can damage the hard outer surface of a tooth. Depending on its severity, treatment may include preventive care or dental fillings to restore the affected area.

4. Gum Care

Healthy gums help support your teeth. Symptoms such as bleeding gums, swelling, redness, or persistent bad breath should not be ignored. Early assessment can help prevent gum problems from progressing.

5. Professional Teeth Cleaning

Professional cleaning may help remove plaque and hardened deposits that regular brushing cannot fully remove. Your dentist can advise how often cleaning is appropriate for your oral health.

6. Children's Dental Care

Children need dental care to support healthy tooth development and establish good oral hygiene habits. Regular dental visits can help identify tooth decay, monitor developing teeth, and guide parents on preventive care.

7. Root Canal Treatment Consultation

When the inner part of a tooth becomes inflamed or infected, root canal treatment may be recommended in suitable cases to help preserve the natural tooth. Your dentist can assess the condition and explain the available options.

8. Tooth Extraction Consultation

A tooth may sometimes need to be removed because of extensive damage, infection, or other dental concerns. Extraction is recommended only when appropriate after clinical evaluation.

9. Cosmetic Dental Consultation

If you have concerns about tooth colour, shape, spacing, or the appearance of your smile, a dental consultation can help you understand suitable options based on your needs.

10. Oral Hygiene Guidance

Learn how to brush correctly, clean between your teeth, choose suitable oral-care products, and maintain daily habits that support healthy teeth and gums.

• Persistent bad breath

• Visible tooth decay or dark spots

Frequently Asked Questions

How often should I visit a dentist?

Your dentist can recommend a suitable check-up interval based on your oral health, risk factors, and dental history.

Should I visit a dentist if I do not have pain?

Yes. Some dental problems may develop without noticeable pain in the early stages. Routine examinations can help identify concerns earlier.

Why do my gums bleed while brushing?

Bleeding gums can be associated with plaque build-up and gum inflammation. If bleeding continues, arrange a dental assessment rather than ignoring it.

When should children first visit a dentist?

Children should have their first dental visit by their first birthday or within six months of their first tooth appearing. Ask your dentist for age-appropriate preventive advice.

Does every toothache require a root canal?

No. Treatment depends on the cause and extent of the problem. A dentist must examine the tooth before recommending a suitable treatment.

Can tooth decay be prevented?

Good oral hygiene, fluoride toothpaste, limiting sugary foods and drinks, and regular dental advice can reduce the risk of tooth decay.
