Dr. Saalini Velamakanni is trained and very experienced in providing general and cosmetic dentistry services and uses state-of-the-art technologies to treat major dental issues effectively.

The following are the advanced dental services available at Northeast Dental Associates:

• Dental Crowns & Onlays

Over time, your tooth can get damaged due to various reasons like decay or trauma. When the damage is extensive, dental fillings may not be enough. In such cases, Dr. V will treat the damage and then restore the tooth’s appearance and functionality by placing a tooth-shaped cap on top of it. 

Dental crowns help restore the shape, size, and strength of the tooth and are custom-made from composite resin, metal, ceramic, or porcelain. 

• Dental Implants 

Dental implants are metal posts that replace missing tooth roots and act as a support for replacement teeth. Once the titanium post permanently fuses with your jaw bone, Dr. V will attach a prosthetic tooth on top of it to complete the restoration. 

Dental implants are the perfect long-term solution for people with missing teeth or chronic dental problems. And they feel, look, and function just like natural teeth.

• Endodontic Treatments

Also known as root canals, endodontic treatments are necessary when the core layer of the tooth with its connective tissue, blood vessels, and nerves is affected by an infection or is damaged. Infections are mainly caused by severe tooth cavities, injuries, or trauma. 

The main purpose of endodontic treatments is to save the natural tooth and restore its functionality. 

• TMJ Disorders

The temporomandibular joint (TMJ) is the joint that connects your lower jaw to the skull. It controls the opening and closing function of your jaw and enables you to chew and speak. 

People may suffer from TMJ disorders due to arthritis, joint erosion, or trauma. TMJ disorders cause inflammation or tenderness in the joints, facial pain, and difficulty opening and closing the jaw. 

At Northeast Dental Associates, Dr. V offers comprehensive treatment plans to address TMJ disorders.
