General Dentistry in Bangalore

At Oral Rehabilitation Center, general dentistry is the foundation of long-term oral health. We focus on preventive care, early diagnosis, and conservative treatments to keep your natural teeth strong and healthy for life. From dental scaling and polishing to mercury-free restorations, our general treatments protect your smile’s longevity.

What is the Dental Issue?

Neglecting routine dental maintenance can lead to silent but progressive problems:

• Plaque & Tartar Build-up: Saliva, food particles, and bacteria form plaque. If not cleaned, it hardens into tartar (calculus), which cannot be brushed away at home.
• Dental Cavities (Caries): Bacterial acids erode enamel, forming cavities that cause tooth sensitivity and toothaches.
• Gingivitis: Bacteria irritate the gums, causing them to bleed during brushing.
• Bad Breath (Halitosis): Chronic oral odor caused by bacterial accumulation and gum inflammation.

How We Treat It Painlessly

Our preventive and basic restorative treatments are designed to be comfortable and stress-free:

• Ultrasonic Cleaning: We use modern ultrasonic scalers that remove tartar using high-frequency vibrations and a gentle water spray, avoiding scraping discomfort.
• Mercury-Free Composite Fillings: If you have a cavity, we use biocompatible, tooth-colored composite resins. The procedure is done under local anesthesia with minimal tooth preparation.
• Conservative Techniques: We utilize early diagnostic tools (like intraoral cameras) to catch cavities before they reach the nerve, eliminating the need for major treatments.

What to Expect During Recovery

General dental procedures require little to no recovery time:

• Dental Scaling & Cleaning: You can eat and drink immediately after the procedure. Some temporary cold sensitivity is normal for 24 hours if deep scaling was required.
• Composite Fillings: Local anesthesia will wear off in 1–2 hours. Avoid hot drinks or chewing on that side until the numbness fades to prevent biting your tongue or cheek.

Fear of the Dentist? Let’s Change That

Routine dental checkups are the most common source of dental anxiety. We turn your dental visit into a comfortable experience:

• Friendly Clinical Team: Our clinicians explain everything clearly and focus on patient comfort.
• Gentle Numbing Gel: We apply a topical anesthetic gel to your gums before scaling or injections, making the process completely comfortable.
• Comfort Breaks: We always tell our patients to raise their hand if they need a break. We go at your speed.
