The gloomy atmosphere prevailing all around was lightened up a bit today.
It is every academician’s goal to conduct and publish articles on dental research. It is the essence that keeps us going!

You can imagine our surprise and joy when this awaited us in our inbox yesterday!!

The Journal of Prosthodontics is a popular journal of dental articles for reading latest developments in the field of Prosthodontics, best dental implants and dental materials.

We published our research on “Assessment of antagonistic enamel wear and clinical performance of monolithic zirconia crowns” – one of the first clinical studies on this exciting new material then – Monolithic zirconia crowns.

It was a delightful to have our research published in what is staple reading for most dentists across the world; but getting this award for having our research as the most downloaded and most read piece of publication was simply a matter of immense joy.

Two interesting cases of best dental implants from F.C Road, Shivajinagar and Nigdi Pradhikaran near Wakad in Pune

The month of March 2020 brought in two pleasant surprises in the first week. We saw our old patients – Sanjeev and Babloo for their yearly follow-ups who underwent one of the best dental implants in our clinics on F.C. Road, Shivajinagar and Nigdi Pradhikaran near Wakad in Pune. 

For any patient there can probably be nothing more psychologically shattering than the loss of a front tooth. 

We often see such patients who come in in an emergency situation after loosing one or more front teeth following a road accident or biting on something excessively hard and breaking a previously weak tooth. 

Ask any dentist – The most difficult job in dentistry is replacing a missing front tooth!

Milk tooth removal or baby tooth removal at Dr Kheur Dental Clinics on F.C. Road, Shivajinagar and Nigdi Pradhikaran near Wakad in Pune

The primary (milk) teeth have an important role in guiding the eruption of the permanent teeth. Early loss of primary teeth can lead to undesirable tooth movements resulting in space loss for the permanent teeth to erupt. This can have detrimental effects on developing occlusion (bite) of the child including crowding, impaction or midline discrepancies.

Children may require space maintainers if they lose a tooth early or have a primary (milk) tooth removed due to dental decay. If either is the case, it is important to know the benefits of using a space maintainer for babies and how it can help support the child’s dental health.

If a space is not maintained, then teeth can shift into the open space and orthodontic treatment may be required. Not every child who loses a primary tooth early or to dental decay needs a space maintainer; however, a specialized consultation with the dentist or orthodontist should be conducted to determine if using a space maintainer is needed.

Digital dentistry means the use of dental technologies or devices that involves digital or computer-controlled components to perform dental procedures instead of using mechanical or electrical tools. Computer-based technologies play a crucial role in all parts of our everyday life as well as in dentistry.  It streamlines many processes and removes several formerly manual steps that can now be automated. Simplified communication between human and computer have caused a very deep/extreme progress in virtual reality (VR)-based teeth-related training. On the other hand, computer-aided design/computer aided manufacturing (CAD/CAM) of teeth-related appliances and prostheses is now widely used around the globe.

CAD/CAM dentistry was introduced in dentistry during the 1980s. When creating a chairside CAD/CAM filling, the dentist at our Clinics on F.C. Road, Shivajinagar and Nigdi Pradhikaran near Wakad in Pune makes a digital picture of the prepared tooth with a small intraoral camera. This digital image contains 3D information about the tooth size and morphology, defect to be restored, about adjacent teeth anatomy and relation with tooth. According to this digital image, the dentist designs the adequate restoration directly on a computer screen using CAD/CAM software.
