Sam's smile restoration

Sam came to Durban Dental Centre for his routine dental health review some time ago and needed treatment. This was put off for a while but eventually, Sam decided to go ahead in order to protect his oral health and prevent further problems. Sam needed a root canal, a crown and a filling.

What we did

We started with the root canal treatment which was completed over 2 appointments. At the second appointment we took an impression of his teeth to send to our highly skilled technicians to make the crown. After this had been made in our dental laboratory, Sam returned for his final appointment where we placed the crown and finally did the filling. Our dentist ensured Sam was at ease at all times and informed of the treatment as we proceeded.

Outcome

Sam left with the problem tooth resolved with the root canal and a crown to give a cosmetic finish and function for eating. We also applied a filling to prevent any further decay and recommended Sam come for regular hygiene visits to stay on top of his oral health. Sam’s smile has been restored without pain or discomfort.

What did Sam say?

"After a Dental health review I was diagnosed to have a root canal treatment, a tooth crown and a filling. This treatment was actually planned a long time ago, so I was happy to finally be able to do it. The whole experience was very good. Appointment times were perfect, and the hygiene standard is excellent. After treatment I feel much better."

How to restore your smile and oral health

Prevention is undoubtedly better and more cost effective than the cure when it comes to ensuring your dental health. Sometimes, teeth deteriorate and break, meaning we must restore the area and restore function. With regular visit to Durban Dental Centre for your Dental health reviews and hygienist appointments we can diagnose any problems early and restore teeth and gums quickly.
