Conservative Dentistry & Endodontics

Conservative Dentistry is the art and science of the diagonosis, treatment and prognosis of defect of teeth that do not require full coverage restorations for correction.

Overview

Conservative Dentistry is the art and science of the diagonosis, treatment and prognosis of defect of teeth that do not require full coverage restorations for correction.

Such treatment should result in the restoration of proper tooth, function and esthetics, while maintaining the physiologic integrity of the teeth in harmonious relationship with the adjacent hard and soft tissues, all of which should enhance the general health and welfare of the patient.

Endodontics is the branch of dentistry which is concerned with morphology, Physiology and pathology of human dental pulp and peri-radicular tissues. Its study and practice encompasses the basic and clinical science including the biology of normal pulp and etiology, diagnosis, prevention and treatment of disease, and injuries of pulp and associated peri-radicular condition, and also including, the procedures like bleaching of discolored teeth and endodontic implants.
