Frequently Asked Questions

Modern root canal treatment is designed to minimize pain with proper anesthesia and gentle surgical technique. Most patients report the procedure is less painful than having the tooth extracted or living with the original infection causing severe pain.

At Glowdent, Dr. Zuber uses advanced endodontic techniques and adequate pain control to ensure patient comfort throughout the entire procedure. Any discomfort is typically from the injection of anesthetic at the beginning; once the tooth is numbed, the procedure itself is painless.

Book Consultation

A typical root canal treatment takes 45-90 minutes depending on tooth complexity, number of roots, and severity of infection.

Single-visit vs Multi-visit: Simple anterior teeth (front) can often be completed in single visit. Posterior teeth (back molars) with multiple roots may need 1-2 visits. Dr. Zuber assesses complexity at initial consultation.

Book Consultation

After root canal completion, a temporary crown is placed to protect the tooth (placed same-day at Glowdent). The permanent crown is fabricated in lab and cemented 1-2 weeks later.

Recovery: Mild discomfort is normal for 2-3 days (managed with pain relief). Avoid chewing on treated tooth until permanent crown is placed. Pain relief medication prescribed if needed.

Follow-up: Regular checkups ensure proper healing and tooth longevity.

Root canal treatment has success rates of 90-95% with proper technique and follow-up care. Success means the tooth is saved and remains functional.

Factors affecting success: Tooth type (anterior vs posterior), extent of infection, bone quality, patient compliance with aftercare, and surgeon's experience.

At Glowdent, Dr. Zuber's experience with 500+ root canals ensures high success rates with minimal complications.

Consult Specialist

Tooth extraction becomes necessary when:

Severity: Severe decay beyond restoration, severe bone loss, crack extending below gum line, failed root canal treatment, or patient preference.

Wisdom Teeth: Impacted, overcrowded, causing pain, or repeatedly infected.

Dr. Zuber always preserves natural teeth when possible through root canal. Extraction is recommended only when tooth cannot be saved.

Common signs of tooth infection:

Severe toothache pain, sensitivity to hot/cold foods, facial swelling, pus drainage, bad taste in mouth, fever, and difficulty swallowing.

Emergency indication: If you experience these symptoms, seek immediate treatment. Untreated infections can spread to jaw and sinuses.

At Glowdent, emergency appointments are available for same-day root canal treatment to relieve severe pain.

A dental implant is a permanent tooth replacement consisting of three parts:

1. Implant fixture: Titanium screw surgically placed in jawbone (acts as artificial tooth root). 2. Abutment: Connector piece attached to implant. 3. Crown: Artificial tooth cemented on abutment.

Implants function like natural teeth, preventing bone loss and maintaining facial structure. Unlike bridges or dentures, implants don't require adjacent tooth grinding.

Book Implant Consultation

Dental implants have 95%+ success rate with proper surgical technique, adequate bone quality, and patient compliance with oral hygiene.

Success factors: Good bone quantity and quality, general health status, non-smoker status, and diligent oral hygiene and regular checkups.

At Glowdent, detailed implant planning with bone assessment ensures optimal candidate selection and high success outcomes.

Explore Implant Options

With proper care and maintenance, dental implants last 20+ years or even a lifetime. The implant fixture itself rarely fails if properly integrated.

Longevity depends on: Oral hygiene habits, regular dental checkups (every 6 months), avoiding smoking, and managing bone health.

The crown: May need replacement after 10-15 years due to wear and tear, but the underlying implant remains stable.

Learn About Implant Care

Implant procedure timeline:

Month 1: Consultation, bone assessment, implant planning. Month 2: Implant surgical placement (30-45 minutes). Months 2-5: Osseointegration (bone fusion with implant). Month 5-6: Crown placement after implant integration.

Total timeline: 5-6 months from surgery to final crown. Some cases can be faster with fast-track protocols.

Schedule Consultation

Requirements for dental implants: Adequate bone volume and density, good overall health, non-smoker (smoking reduces success), healthy gums, and commitment to oral hygiene.

Relative contraindications: Heavy smoking, uncontrolled diabetes, severe bone loss (may need bone grafting first), or certain medications.

Age is not a barrier—implants can be placed in adults of any age with adequate bone health. Dr. Zuber performs detailed bone assessment with imaging to determine suitability.

Get Suitability Assessment

Implants: Permanent, function like natural teeth, prevent bone loss, don't require grinding adjacent healthy teeth, last 20+ years.

Bridges: Fixed prosthetic supported by adjacent teeth, requires grinding down healthy teeth, lasts 10-15 years, easier procedure with faster timeline.

Implants are superior when adequate bone is present and patient can afford longer treatment timeline. Bridges are faster option but sacrifice healthy tooth structure.

Glutathione is a powerful antioxidant that brightens skin and reduces dark spots. Injectable glutathione treatment involves intramuscular or IV injection for systemic skin brightening.

How it works: Inhibits melanin production, brightens skin tone, reduces dark spots and uneven skin pigmentation. Results appear gradually within 4-8 weeks.

Course: 4-6 weekly injections recommended for optimal results. Safe with minimal side effects when administered properly.

Book Skin Glow Treatment

Yes, laser treatment for acne scars is highly effective for reducing scar appearance by 50-70% or more depending on scar type and depth.

How it works: Laser stimulates collagen remodeling and new skin formation. Works best on superficial and atrophic scars. Depressed scars show significant improvement.

Results timeline: Progressive improvement over 2-3 months after completing 4-6 treatment sessions.

Book Scar Consultation

Some treatments can be combined safely, while others need spacing for optimal results and safety.

Can combine: HydraFacial with other facials, skin glow with hair PRP, laser treatments spaced appropriately.

Should space: Laser procedures (4-6 weeks apart), chemical peels (2-3 weeks apart), Injectable treatments assessed individually.

Dr. Zuber assesses skin condition and recommends safe combination or sequential treatment protocols for optimal results.

Consult About Combination Treatment

Recommended protocol: 4-6 sessions spaced 2 weeks apart for optimal hair growth stimulation.

Results timeline: First visible improvement appears around 3-4 months after starting treatment. Maximum results seen 6-12 months after treatment course completion.

Maintenance: One session every 3-4 months recommended to maintain results and continued hair growth.

Start Hair PRP Course

Hair PRP is completely safe because it uses the patient's own blood—no risk of allergic reaction or rejection.

Process: Blood is drawn, processed to extract growth factors, then injected into scalp. Minimal discomfort with local numbing cream.

Side effects: Minimal—slight redness or minor soreness at injection site, which resolves within 24-48 hours.

No medication interaction: Safe for patients on most medications. History of bleeding disorders requires physician consultation.

Book Consultation

Hair PRP (platelet-rich plasma) therapy works through growth factor stimulation:

Process: Patient's blood is centrifuged to extract concentrated platelets and growth factors. Concentrated plasma containing 5-8 growth factors is injected into scalp targeting hair follicles.

Mechanism: Growth factors stimulate dormant hair follicles, extend growth phase, and improve blood circulation to scalp. This increases hair density and thickness.

Natural solution: Uses body's own healing and regenerative mechanisms for hair growth—completely natural and biological.

Laser hair removal provides significant permanent hair reduction (70-80% reduction) rather than complete permanent removal.

How it works: Laser damages hair follicles in active growth phase, preventing regrowth. Hairs in dormant phase continue growing and require future sessions.

Sessions needed: 6-8 sessions spaced 4-6 weeks apart for optimal results covering all hair growth cycles.

Maintenance: Occasional touch-up sessions (1-2 yearly) recommended for long-term hair reduction maintenance.
