Dental FAQs in Ludhiana
Does a root canal hurt?
This is one of the most common dental FAQs in Ludhiana.The tooth is fully numbed before treatment begins, so most patients feel little or no discomfort during a root canal. Many patients find it relieves the pain they came in with. Dr. Urvi explains every step and checks on your comfort throughout.
I'm scared of the injection. What can you do?
You're not alone, because this is one of the most common fears. We use gentle injection techniques to make the numbing step as comfortable as possible, and we go at your pace. For very anxious patients, conscious sedation is also available.
What is conscious sedation, and is it safe?
Conscious sedation helps you feel calm and relaxed during treatment while you stay awake and able to respond. It's used for patients with dental anxiety and is given only after checking your health and medical history to make sure it's suitable for you.
Can my root canal be done in one sitting?
In most cases, yes. Single-sitting root canal treatment is one of Dr. Urvi's areas of special focus. Occasionally, a tooth with severe infection may need more than one visit, and Dr. Urvi will tell you beforehand if that's the case.
Can I get multiple treatments done in one visit?
Often, yes. Where it's clinically suitable, treatments like cleaning, fillings and root canal can be combined into one visit to save you time. Dr. Urvi will plan this with you after examining your teeth.
Dental implant or bridge: which is better?
An implant replaces a missing tooth on its own, without touching the neighbouring teeth. A bridge is supported by the teeth on either side, which need to be trimmed. Implants are usually the longer-lasting option, but the right choice depends on your bone, gums and budget. Dr. Urvi will explain both options for your case.
How long do dental implants last?
With good oral hygiene and regular check-ups, implants can last many years, often decades.
Do veneers damage natural teeth?
Depending on the type of veneer, a very thin layer of the tooth's surface may need to be prepared. Dr. Urvi will explain exactly what your treatment involves before starting, so you can decide with full information.
Clear aligners or braces: which should I choose?
Clear aligners are nearly invisible and removable, which makes them popular with adults. Braces may be better for some complex cases. A consultation will show which option suits your teeth.
When should my child first see a dentist?
Ideally by their first birthday, or when the first tooth appears. Early visits help children get comfortable with the dentist before any problem develops.
Do you treat very young children?
Yes. Dr. Urvi has treated children as young as two years old, including root canal treatment, using a calm approach that never forces or frightens them.
Does scaling (cleaning) weaken teeth?
No, this is a common myth. Scaling removes hardened tartar that brushing can't. Teeth may feel slightly sensitive for a day or two afterwards, but cleaning protects your gums and teeth in the long run.
What should I expect after wisdom tooth removal?
Some swelling and mild discomfort for a few days is normal. You'll receive clear aftercare instructions, and the team stays in touch to check on your recovery.
Is teeth whitening safe?
Yes, when done under dental supervision. Dr. Urvi will check your teeth and gums first to make sure whitening is suitable for you.
