Frequently Asked Questions

Our dental fillings are used to fill cavities or repair missing tooth structure caused by decay, trauma, or grinding. We use tooth-colored composite fillings for better aesthetics and to preserve more tooth structure than silver fillings. Fillings strengthen teeth, treat early-stage decay, and restore both the appearance and functionality of your smile.

Tooth infections from decay or trauma can lead to inflammation of the dental pulp, requiring root canal therapy. This procedure involves removing the infected pulp, cleaning the tooth canals, and filling them with gutta-percha to save the tooth from extraction with a 95% success rate.

Our dental crowns are used to cover severely damaged or vulnerable teeth to prevent further breakage. Made of materials like zirconia, metal, porcelain, or ceramic, crowns offer additional strength and durability to protect weakened teeth, especially after a root canal or in teeth with large fillings. We offer both lab-made and same-day crowns based on the severity of damage and patient goals.

In Paxton, our dental services provide a variety of treatments for teeth damaged by oral injuries, decay, teeth grinding, and other issues. Our dentist will evaluate your teeth and gums to recommend the best treatment options, such as fillings, root canal therapy, and dental crowns, tailored to your individual needs, lifestyle, and budget. A personalized treatment plan will be developed to improve your oral health.

Dental fillings are a common solution for repairing decayed teeth. Dr. Khanani will remove damaged enamel and fill the empty space to restore the tooth's shape and structure. Our office offers both composite and amalgam fillings. Composite fillings match the color of your teeth and are preferred by patients who want to maintain the aesthetics of their smile. Amalgam fillings, made of metals like tin, silver, and copper, are durable but may discolor the tooth. Dr. Khanani will discuss your options during your consultation to help you choose the right treatment for you.

Prioritizing restorative treatment is crucial for maintaining oral health, as untreated issues can worsen over time. Neglecting a small cavity can lead to more severe decay that may reach the tooth's pulp, resulting in a serious infection. Ignoring dental problems can require more invasive and costly treatments. Untreated infections can spread to other teeth or even throughout the body, potentially leading to fatal consequences. Restorative treatment not only saves teeth by restoring them to health but also helps prevent the need for extractions and the associated risks of bone loss and shifting teeth. Addressing dental issues promptly is essential to avoid more serious complications in the future.

Restorative dentistry is typically covered by dental insurance at a rate of 50 to 80%, which includes procedures such as fillings, crowns, root canals, extractions, and implants. However, insurance only covers treatments that are considered medically necessary. Some plans may not cover certain cosmetic restorations like tooth-colored fillings or crowns unless there is evidence of decay or trauma that could worsen without treatment. It is recommended to contact your insurance provider to determine what is covered by your specific plan. Additionally, we offer various financing options to make dental treatment affordable, even for those without insurance.

Root canal therapy is the most effective treatment for repairing and restoring an infected tooth that has been damaged by a cavity or oral injury. If bacteria reaches the inner nerves of a compromised tooth, an infection can develop that requires immediate attention. During root canal therapy, the infected material is removed from inside the tooth through a hole created in the enamel. After the procedure, the tooth is disinfected and filled to protect the remaining structure, and it can be restored with a filling or dental crown. Our office offers both anterior (front) and posterior (rear) root canals, performed by Dr. Khanani.
