Clear Aligners

A Modern, Discreet Way to Straighten Your Teeth

Clear aligners have transformed orthodontic treatment by offering a comfortable and nearly invisible alternative to traditional braces. Aligners are custom-made, transparent trays that gently move teeth into the correct position over time.

They are especially popular among adults and working professionals who want to improve their smile without the look or inconvenience of metal braces.

Who Are Aligners Suitable For?

Clear aligners are ideal for patients with:

  • Mild to moderate crooked or crowded teeth
  • Gaps between teeth
  • Minor bite problems
  • Relapse after previous orthodontic treatment

During your consultation, we assess whether aligners are suitable for your specific dental condition.

How Aligner Treatment Works

  1. Consultation & Digital Planning
    We begin with a detailed examination, digital scans, and X-rays. A customized treatment plan is created to map tooth movement step by step.
  2. Custom Aligner Trays
    A series of aligners is fabricated specifically for your teeth. Each set is worn for a specified period before moving to the next.
  3. Gradual Tooth Movement
    Aligners gently shift teeth into alignment with controlled, predictable movement.
  4. Retention Phase
    After treatment, retainers are provided to maintain your new smile.

Benefits of Clear Aligners

  • Nearly invisible appearance
  • Removable for eating and brushing
  • More comfortable than traditional braces
  • Fewer clinic visits
  • Better oral hygiene during treatment

Aligners allow you to straighten your teeth while maintaining your lifestyle and confidence.

Gum Surgery

Treating Gum Disease and Protecting Your Teeth

Healthy gums are the foundation of a healthy smile. Gum problems often progress silently and, if untreated, can lead to tooth loss and bone damage. At Dr. Shivani’s Dental & Aesthetic, we provide advanced gum surgery to treat periodontal disease and restore gum health.

Gum surgery is recommended when non-surgical treatments are not sufficient to control infection or repair damage.

When Is Gum Surgery Needed?

Gum surgery may be advised if you experience:

  • Persistent bleeding gums
  • Gum recession (teeth appearing longer)
  • Deep gum pockets
  • Loose teeth due to bone loss
  • Chronic bad breath caused by gum infection

Early intervention can prevent further damage and help preserve natural teeth.

Types of Gum Procedures We Perform

  • Flap Surgery to clean deep infections
  • Gum Recession Coverage to protect exposed roots
  • Crown Lengthening for functional or aesthetic reasons
  • Surgical Management of Advanced Gum Disease

Each procedure is tailored based on the severity of the condition and long-term oral health goals.

The Gum Surgery Process

  1. Comprehensive Evaluation
    We assess gum health using clinical examination and X-rays.
  2. Treatment Planning
    The procedure is explained clearly, including healing time and aftercare.
  3. Gentle Surgical Care
    Surgery is performed under local anesthesia, ensuring comfort and safety.
  4. Healing & Follow-Up
    Post-surgical care instructions are provided to support proper healing and prevent recurrence.

Recovery & Aftercare

Most gum surgeries heal well with proper care. Mild discomfort or swelling may occur initially and is manageable with medication and home care. Good oral hygiene and follow-up visits are essential for long-term success.

Benign Prostatic Hyperplasia (BPH), commonly known as an enlarged prostate, is one of the most frequent urological conditions affecting men, especially above the age of 50. As the prostate gland grows in size, it can begin to squeeze or block the urethra, leading to urinary problems that can significantly affect daily life. While BPH is not cancer and does not increase the risk of prostate cancer, the symptoms can be troubling and often require medical attention.

What is BPH?

BPH is the non-cancerous enlargement of the prostate gland. Over time, as the gland grows, it compresses the urethra—the tube that carries urine out of the body—leading to obstruction of urine flow. The exact cause of this enlargement is not known, but hormonal changes with age are believed to play a major role.

Common Symptoms of BPH

Men with BPH may experience one or many of the following symptoms:

  • Difficulty starting urination

  • Weak or interrupted urine stream

  • Frequent urination, especially at night (nocturia)

  • Sudden, urgent need to urinate

  • Incomplete emptying of the bladder

  • Dribbling at the end of urination

  • Burning sensation (if infection develops)

These symptoms may worsen over time, making early evaluation important.

Complications if Untreated

While BPH itself is not dangerous, prolonged obstruction can lead to:

  • Urinary tract infections

  • Acute urinary retention

  • Bladder stones

  • Kidney damage due to back pressure

  • Frequent hospital visits due to urinary problems

Seeking timely treatment prevents long-term complications.

Diagnosis

A complete evaluation includes:

  • Physical examination

  • Digital rectal exam (DRE)

  • Urine test

  • Ultrasound of kidneys and bladder

  • PSA (Prostate-Specific Antigen) test

  • Uroflowmetry (measures urine flow)

These tests help determine the severity of enlargement and the right course of treatment.

Treatment Options for BPH

Treatment depends on the intensity of symptoms and overall health of the patient.

1. Lifestyle Modifications

  • Reducing caffeine and alcohol

  • Avoiding drinking water before bedtime

  • Regular exercise

  • Bladder training techniques

2. Medications

  • Alpha-blockers (relax prostate muscles for easier urine flow)

  • 5-alpha-reductase inhibitors (shrink the prostate over time)

  • Combination therapy for better results

3. Minimally Invasive Procedures

These are preferred because of quick recovery and less pain:

  • TURP (Transurethral Resection of Prostate) – Gold standard treatment

  • Laser Prostate Surgery – Holmium/Thulium laser for bloodless removal

  • UroLift System – Lifts prostate tissue to open the urinary channel

  • Prostatic artery embolization

4. Surgical Options

For very large prostates or severe symptoms, open or robotic prostatectomy may be recommended.

Recovery and Prognosis

Most patients experience quick relief of symptoms after treatment. Minimally invasive procedures allow faster recovery, less bleeding, and reduced hospital stay.

  • Experienced urologist with expertise in laser and minimally invasive surgery

  • Advanced diagnostic facilities

  • Personalized treatment according to age, symptoms, and health

  • High patient success rate
