Conservative, comprehensive & Cost-effective dental treatment
Case Study
Conservative dental treatment
At Anna Nagar Dental Clinic, Dr. K. Seethalakshmi recently addressed a compelling case that underscores the importance of conservative dental treatment delivered with precision and efficiency.



Beyond the Pain: A Swift & Comprehensive Smile Transformation
The Challenge: Acute Pain Meets Urgent Timelines

Our patient, a 20-year-old student, presented with acute tooth pain, persistent swelling, and uncomfortable food impaction in the upper right back teeth region. This wasn’t just a minor discomfort; it was a significant impediment to his daily life, compounded by an impending move abroad for higher studies, making a swift resolution absolutely critical.
Clinical examination by Dr. K. Seethalakshmi revealed extensive deep dental caries and grossly decayed teeth. An immediate OPG radiograph confirmed the underlying issue: a clear root infection requiring urgent attention. Further assessment also highlighted multiple other dental caries and a slightly extruded canine (tooth 23), painting a picture of comprehensive dental needs beyond the immediate emergency.
The Solution: Conservative, Comprehensive, and Patient-Centric Care
Understanding the patient’s urgent timeline and the extent of his dental issues, Dr. K. Seethalakshmi devised a comprehensive dental treatment plan focused on both immediate relief and long-term oral health, all while ensuring a cost-effective dental treatment approach. The strategy began with an initial antibiotic course to manage the infection, paving the way for the following sequence of treatments:
Oral Prophylaxis: A thorough cleaning to remove plaque and calculus, establishing a foundation for optimal oral hygiene.
Root Canal Treatment (RCT): Essential for addressing the deep-seated infection and alleviating the severe pain in the affected tooth.
Fixed Partial Denture (FPD) with Zirconia Crowns: To restore the integrity and aesthetics of the affected area after the RCT, utilizing durable and natural-looking Zirconia crowns for superior results.
Composite Restorations: To meticulously repair the other areas affected by dental caries, preserving natural tooth structure.
Coronoplasty for Upper Front Teeth: A precise contouring procedure to address the slightly extruded canine (tooth 23) and enhance overall smile harmony.
The Execution: Efficiency Without Compromise
What truly sets this case apart is the seamless execution of such extensive treatment within an exceptionally short timeframe. Recognizing the patient’s imminent departure, Dr. K. Seethalakshmi and her team at Anna Nagar Dental Clinic orchestrated a highly coordinated schedule. This allowed for the complete resolution of the root infection, comprehensive restoration of multiple teeth, and cosmetic enhancements – all before the patient left for his studies.
This commitment to patient needs, combined with Dr. Seetha Lakshmi’s expertise, ensured that the student could embark on his new academic journey with a healthy, pain-free smile, free from dental worries.
The Outcome: A Healthy Smile, A Confident Future
The successful completion of this intricate case within a critical window transformed the patient’s oral health and significantly contributed to his peace of mind. From debilitating pain to a fully restored and functional smile, the patient experienced first-hand the benefits of conservative, comprehensive, and cost-effective dental treatment at Anna Nagar Dental Clinic.
This case stands as a testament to Dr. K. Seethalakshmi’s dedication to delivering high-quality, patient-focused dental care, even under tight deadlines.
