Experience Lasting Relief with Neuromuscular Dentistry Neuromuscular dentistry provides a holistic, comprehensive treatment for facial pain issues, TMJ disorders, and body postural issues. While conventional dentists will only look at your teeth and gums, neuromuscular dentists identify and restore all of the pieces that make up one system—the jaw joints (TMJ), muscles, teeth, and nerves work to get function back to the entire craniofacial system supporting natural chewing, breathing, and swallowing. How Does Neuromuscular Imbalance Impact the Body? A misaligned jaw, misaligned bite (malocclusion), and chronic stress can pull your jaw out of alignment. When this happens the entire skull will sit unevenly on the cervical spine. This will put strain on surrounding muscles, leading to muscle spasms and radiated pain through the neck, shoulders, back, hips and legs. Neuromuscular dental therapies are utilized to reposition the jaws to a more optimal position and correct the bite. This can help alleviate muscle effort and strain leading to better body posture. The Consequences of Chewing with the Same Side Favoring one side while chewing may lead to an asymmetrical bite and an oblique occlusal plane. While chewing, this produces pressure in the chewing muscles on that side while putting strain on larger postural muscles such as the trapezius and sternocleidomastoid muscle that link the jaw to the neck and vertebral spine. This can easily lead to poor postural habits, back pain, sciatica, and leg fatigue when viewed as patterns and causes over time. Common Signs and Symptoms of Neuromuscular Disorders Watch for the following symptoms: • Jaw pain or TMJ pain • Clicking or popping when you use your jaw • Inability to open mouth fully • Headaches or migraines • Ringing in the ears or tinnitus • Inability to hold your head or shoulders up • Numbness or tingling in your fingers • Back pain (in particular L4, L5) • Sciatica or leg pain • Generalized muscle stiffness Smile and Glow Diagnostic Process for Facial Pain Using a multi-specialty approach the Smile and Glow Team invokes a systematic diagnostic process to determine the limitations associated with TMJ or other neuromuscular disorders: • Thorough history, posture, and sleeping position assessment. • Full mouth and extra-oral clinical examination. • Imagery: OPG, Lateral Ceph, CBCT, TMJ open/close views, airway scans, MRI, whole-body scans. • Sleep analysis either through home sleep test or polysomnogram. • XSens (external ground surface maxillary skull trackers), ULF-TENS, jaw tracking, MAT Scan and T-Scan, our digital device for measuring bite force. Why We Use T-Scan T-Scan provides a digital map of your bite to evaluate occlusal imbalances that may be causing you pain or long-term dysfunction. The Role of TENS Therapy in Neuromuscular Dentistry Ultra Low-Frequency Transcutaneous Electrical Nerve Stimulation (ULF-TENS) helps relax overworked jaw muscles and facilitates healing. TENS has been shown to: • Release muscle tightness. • Block pain signals from reaching the brain. • Increase endorphins, the body’s natural pain-relievers. • Increase blood flow to accelerate recovery. Once the muscle is relaxed we can take an accurate record of your true jaw position and build you a customized treatment plan. Neuromuscular Dentistry is effective for: • Temporomandibular Joint Disorder (TMD) • Obstructive Sleep Apnea (OSA) • Cranio-Cervical-Mandibular Disorders (CCMD) Holistic Treatment Options at Smile and Glow After evaluation and diagnosis our neuromuscular orthodontist might recommend: • mandibular orthopedic repositioning appliance (MORA) • orthotic splints, TENS therapy, or myomonitor therapy (J5 Myomonitor) • Restorative or orthodontic correction for stable occlusion. And we will work with other specialists such as ENT, pulmonologists, physiotherapists, and psychologists, if necessary. Start Accessing Treatment Early Around age 7 would be optimal, but anyone who has had chronic signs and symptoms (jaw pain, facial tension, neck stiffness, or shoulder or back stiffness) should be evaluated at the first sign of any problems to avoid worsening of symptoms.

Are you reluctant to smile because of yellow or discolored teeth? Everyday activities like drinking coffee, smoking or getting older can dull your natural beauty. We offer safe, professional teeth whitening at Smile and Glow Dental Clinic, Mogappair, that can bring back your radiant smile in one visit! What is Teeth Whitening? Teeth whitening is a clinical cosmetic procedure that removes stains and discolouration from your teeth by using bleaching products. A professional dental whitening agent is a safe bleaching agent (usually hydrogen peroxide or carbamide peroxide) which breaks down stain molecules in the enamel so that the underlying surface appears whiter and brighter. Why Do Teeth Become Discoloured? Despite regular brushing, teeth become discoloured naturally from: • Teas, coffees, coloured foods, red wine • Smoking or tobacco use • Aging or wear to enamel • Medicines like tetracycline • Fluoride or excess fluoride (fluorosis) • Conditions like jaundice or trauma when a tooth was forming. Types of Teeth Whitening Treatments At Smile and Glow, we offer several types of treatment options to accommodate different needs and lifestyles: ________________________________________ 1. In-Office Teeth Whitening (Chairside Whitening) This is the quickest and most predictable whitening option, completed in one visit under the care of our dentist. • A protective gel or rubber dam will be applied to protect your gums while whitening is taking place. • A potent whitening gel is professionally applied, highlighting additional light(s) that can help enhance penetration. • Results are seen right away and typically after only 45-60 minutes. • The best option for those who want fast and dramatic results. ________________________________________ 2. At-Home Whitening Kits (Custom Trays) Are you looking to take a more gradual approach from home? • We will provide you with a custom-made whitening tray for your teeth. • Our dentist will instruct you on how to use the whitening bleaching gel correctly and safely. • You expect to see results in 2-6 weeks based on consistent use. ________________________________________ 3. Over-the-Counter Whitening Recommendations There are a variety of non-professional products you can buy such as whitening strips, gels, and over-the-counter whitening toothpaste. Not all accessories are equal, nor are they effective or safe for everyone. • We provide assistance in selecting dentist-approved products with the ADA Seal of Acceptance. • We will give you valuable professional advice that will allow for better results with fewer side effects. _____________________________________ Is Teeth Whitening Safe? Yes, when done under dental supervision, whitening is a safe and effective treatment. Some individuals may experience temporary sensitivity or gum irritation, especially if they are using high-concentration gel. At Smile and Glow, we will keep an eye on your comfort level, and we can recommend medicated toothpaste to alleviate any discomfort.

Using the latest in software, high-resolution photographs, videos, and 3D mock-ups, we can create a completely custom smile makeover plan tailored to your gender, facial features, facial expressions, and personality. At Smile and Glow Dental Clinic in Mogappair and Perambur, we introduce DSD in Chennai to restore your natural looking, confident smile with increased caret and accuracy. What Is Digital Smile Design? DSD is a digital treatment planning tool that enables the doctor to analyze the coordination of the teeth, gums, lips, and facial structure that can be visualized before a complete smile design has occurred. DSD not only improves accuracy but allows you to be part of designing your own smile. Whether we are trying to correct a tooth or combination of teeth alignment, to correct chipped teeth, or for a full smile makeover, DSD will help us create a result that not only looks perfectly suited to your face, but also looks natural and symmetrical. _________________________________________ What is the DSD Process? The DSD process begins by capturing high-resolution images and high-definition videos of your face and smile from angles in every direction. Those images are analysed using targeted software which will smile-design your perfect smile according to your facial features. You will see and approve a digital mock-up of what your new smile will look like. Then we will produce a 3D printed mock-up for you to try on, giving you a non-permanent preview of your new smile. You will be able to make any last minute adjustments to the design for your final restorations. Only after your approval are the final restorations; whether they be veneers, implants, crowns or whitening allowed to be designed and fabricated. _________________________________________ Why Use Digital Smile Design Over Traditional Smile Design? Traditional smile designing is often based on verbal descriptions and approximations making it hard for the dentist and the patient to align themselves in what the final product will look like. With DSD there can be no ambiguity. You can visualise the desired final product in advance and make changes if any are required before proceeding. DSD provides an advantage to patient satisfaction levels, and it improves our cosmetic dentist's ability to further engage the lab technician and the patient in the plan to accomplish your desired smile. ________________________________________ Advantages of Digital Smile Design at Smile and Glow • Visualize your new smile instantly prior to treatment • Increases precision and communication between the patient and dentist • Entirely customized smile makeover that accounts for your unique facial attributes • Removes the uncertainty from cosmetic dental treatments • Provides a more informed decision for veneers, aligners, bridges, and whitening • Allows you to be a part of the design process every step of the way • Provides quick mock-ups via 3D print temporary smiles ________________________________________ If you are looking for a cosmetic dentist in Mogappair or in Perambur or considering Digital Smile Design in Chennai, Smile and Glow Dental Clinic has the perfect blend of technology, expertise, and personalized care to fit your needs. 📞 Contact us now to schedule your DSD consultation and start your journey to a beautiful and confident smile today. ________________________________________

Retreatment of Root Canal Failure in Mogappair – Save Your Tooth at Smile and Glow Root canal treatment is designed to be permanent. However, this is not always the case. A tooth that has been previously treated may still hurt due to developing an infection that may not have been seen earlier or technical limitations with the initial root canal. The good news is that at Smile and Glow Dental Clinic, Mogappair, we specialize in the retreatment of failed root canals using the latest microscopic techniques to preserve and restore your natural tooth. What causes root canal treatment to fail? Even if the original treatment was done correctly, there are numerous factors that may lead to reinfection or a delayed healing response. • Missed canal- There may have been a hidden or extra canal present during the initial treatment. • Improper cleaning- The canal may not have been cleaned or sealed completely. • Too long of a delay between treatment and the placement of the crown- The oral environment established seal failures around the crown of the tooth, therefore allowed bacteria back into it. • Complex root anatomy- The shape of the canal may have been too curved or narrow and therefore may not have received proper cleaning. These problems can lead to symptoms that include: • Persistent pain or sensitivity in the tooth that was treated • Tenderness when chewing or tapping the tooth • Swelling in the area of the gums, face, or neck • A pimple-like bump or sinus tract on the gums (indicating a pus pathway) • A bad taste or foul breath from infection ________________________________________ Can Retreatment Really Happen? Yes—a failed root canal absolutely can be retreated. Using advanced equipment such as a dental operating microscopes and the knowledge and skills of our expert endodontists, it is possible for us to fully clean the tooth, properly seal it, and keep it for the long haul. ________________________________________ Retreatment at Smile and Glow 1. Re-accessing the Tooth The treated tooth is re-accessed by removing the crown or filling. 2. Removal of Old Root Canal Materials The old filling materials are removed to access the canal system. 3. Evaluation Under Microscope We will look for missed canals, unusual anatomy, or areas of reinfection using a dental microscope. 4. Deep Cleaning and Shaping In this step, the canals are cleaned, shaped, and disinfected—the full length of each root. 5. Sealing Your Tooth The root canals are tightly sealed (obturated) to prevent future reinfection. 6. Restoration A quality filling or crown will be placed on the tooth, protecting it and restoring function. ________________________________________ Why Choose Smile and Glow for Retreatments? • Experienced Micro-Endodontic Specialists We use dental microscopes to find and treat teeth with the most difficult and complex root canal challenges. • Better Success Rates Most retreated but suitably treated teeth heal completely and last many years with adequate sealing. • Patient Focused Practice We focus on your comfort, while minimizing discomfort, and providing honest and straightforward recommendations for doing what is best for your tooth. ________________________________________ Don't Rush in for Extraction – Let Us Help You Save Your Tooth Just because of a failed root canal, does not mean your tooth is a failure.
