“Dr.Arun came highly recommended when we went to his clinic for my wife’s treatment. His manner instantly put my wife at ease and helped her gain confidence. Our interaction throughout the period of treatment with both Dr.Arun and his staff was exceptional. In addition to being a highly skilled surgeon his abilities to listen, care and heal are unmatched. He is well adept in physical evaluations and ailment management. Further his transparent treatment plans citing costs involved made us feel confident and offered a great feeling of reliance. The equipment available in the clinic are state of the art and so is his professional knowledge in handling those.His staff also went to great lengths in finalizing appointments, proper updating of medical records and displayed a caring attitude at all times. Doctors like Dr.Arun replace the fear of illness with trust and recovery.
The treatment was spaced out in a time frame spanning 6 months due to the doctor’s insistence that each stage healed properly before the next was embarked upon. My wife is truly delighted with outcome of her treatment and the implant looks completely natural and is extremely comfortable. His treatment had brought a huge smile in my wife’s face. I would recommend his name at all times to anybody who is in need of quality dental treatment” – THANK YOU FOR YOUR REVIEW.

It is very important to choose the right place and hands to undergo your implant surgery. We, at Pearls, provide the state of art skill and technology to help in creating everlasting smiles. We provide:

• -Conscious sedation for a pain-free surgery :

  The fear of a dental procedure can cause anxiety during the course of surgery. Sedation helps in keeping the patient calm and completely unaware of the process, a state of deep sleep. The vitals are monitored at all times throughout the process. Thus, we provide painless sleep dentistry to ensure patient comfort and care.

• -CT Guided Implant surgery :

  The use of computed tomography in implant treatment planning helps in reducing the surgery time, reducing postoperative complications, better choice of implant size thereby keeping patient’s interest at its best.

• -Immediate Implants post-extraction :

  The placement of implants in the tooth socket immediately after extraction reduces the requirement of another surgery.

• -Single-visit CAD-CAM crown in one hour :

  Use of single visit dentistry helps in avoiding any unpleasant impression material, no requirement of temporary prosthesis, long-term stability as it is more accurate in terms of design, fit and color and convenience of getting the crown in one hour.

• -Highly skilled and trained in new learnings& advancements in implant procedures such as soft tissue and hard tissue augmentation :

  The clinical skill and knowledge of the dentist plays an important role in the success of the implant surgery. This skill and knowledge is required to take important decisions such as choice of conventional implants or immediate implants, time frame in between the implant and crown placement, choice of implant size and position all of which will determine the longevity and success of the same.

WHAT ARE DENTAL IMPLANTS?
Dental implants are artificial fixtures mimicking our natural roots, over which an artificial crown can be restored. It is best replacement option for replacing a single missing tooth, teeth or a complete set of teeth in either arches as it independently restores form, function as well as aesthetics.
HOW LONG WILL IMPLANTS LAST ?
Dental implant treatment is proposed with the idea to restore the tooth/ teeth to last a lifetime as titanium adapts beautifully with our natural bone forming a single unit. Implant aftercare plays an important role in the success of the implant, such as, maintenance of good oral hygiene, review check up once in six months to help in monitoring and refrainment from habits such as smoking.
WHAT ARE THE BENEFITS OF A DENTAL IMPLANT OVER THE CONVENTIONAL DENTURE/ BRIDGE REPLACEMENT?

The benefits of implants can be categorized into two major aspects :

• Function: As each of our natural tooth is a single unit, implants help in replacing our missing teeth each as a single unit. Advantage being better chewing efficiency, maintenance of our oral health. The main advantage being unlike conventional bridges it does not require to salvage any tooth structure of the adjacent teeth, therefore it’s success is not dependent on the health of the adjacent teeth.
• AESTHETICS : Precision and pre-planning play a major role in improving the aesthetics. The crowns given over the implant can mimick the natural phenomena of the teeth coming out of our gums with the maintenance of the interdental space that is lost when replacing with the bridge.

IS THE PLACEMENT OF IMPLANTS PAINFUL? HOW LONG DOES IT TAKE?
Placement of implants can be painless procedure with proper planning in advance. Local anesthesia is usually administered to numb the surgical area that will help keep the process painless. Post- operative course of medications and rest can help bring you back to your daily routine in a couple of days. In case of multiple implants, patient is advised to undergo the procedure under conscious sedation, a process different from general anesthesia, where an anesthetist will administer a sedative dose in your vein, that will keep you conscious to commands but completely unaware of the ongoing procedure.
Placement of implants can take about 20 minutes upto three hours depending on the number of implants and difficulty of surgery. Post the implant placement, a minimum waiting period of 3-6 monthsis advised to receive a crown ( an individualized decision that varies from each patient ).

WHAT ARE IMMEDIATE IMPLANTS ?
This treatment involves placement of implants in the tooth socket immediately post extraction. The possibility of this process is dependent on the appropriate length and width of available bone as well as absence of any infection.

WILL YOU REMAIN WITHOUT A TOOTH AFTER IMPLANT PLACEMENT ?
Loss of anterior tooth/teeth especially plays a major role in aesthetics and refrainment from social life. This can be overcome by placement of a temporary tooth immediately after placement of implants. It is important to understand that the temporary tooth is an independent process and does not require the process of loading the implant. Hence, it ensures complete implant-bone formation (osseo-intergration) as well as maintenance of aesthetics until the placement of a permanent tooth.

INSUFFICIENT BONE, CAN ONE STILL GET IMPLANTS ? WILL BONE GRAFTS & MEMBRANES HELP ?
Yes, with the help of materials such as bone graft and membrane, placement of implants is possible and successful. Grafts contain vital cells that help in bone growth and in addition stabilizes the blood clot performing it’s action. Membrane is a material that acts as a barrier to prevent soft tissue cells(gum cells) to enter the surgical area and prevent the bone regeneration process. In large and small defects where there is insufficient natural bone, grafts from other sources can be placed to help in generation of new bone. These grafts and membrane are chosen appropriately for each defect.
