Non-surgical Facial Aesthetics

These minor procedures are non-invasive techniques to improve your facial look without surgery or recuperation. Despite the fact that many places use non-doctors (beauticians, nurses, or estheticians) for these treatments, only certified surgeons perform all, including non-surgical, facial aesthetic procedures in our practice at “Danthaja”. Our doctors are board-certified in Oral & Maxillofacial Surgery by the Post Graduate Institute of Medicine (PGIM). So you’d be assured that all of your care will be delivered by specialists and experts.

BOTOX – Botox injections will temporarily reduce the underlying facial muscle activity, smoothing out mild to severe frown lines, crow’s feet, and forehead wrinkles. It works on the majority of facial wrinkle lines, including those between the brows, on the forehead, around the eyes, on the nose, and around the lips. Botox injections can also be used to slim the face by reducing the bulkiness of the jaw muscles. Furthermore, Botox can be used to treat TMJ disorders and other types of facial pain and headaches by relaxing certain stiffened facial and masticatory muscles. Because we utilize the finest and tiniest needles available, these injections are nearly painless.

Dermal Fillers – Natural substances are used to replace lost facial volume using fillers. Natural hyaluronic acids are injected into the facial tissues to treat moderate to severe facial folds such as nasolabial wrinkles, tear trough defects, and lip enhancements. They are also used to correct the volume loss and hollowness associated with facial ageing, both directly and through new collagen formation.

Zygomatic Implants

“Danthaja” is one of the few practices in Sri Lanka that provides life-changing zygomatic dental implants to patients who have lost teeth in the upper jaw and are unable to have dental implants due to extreme jawbone deterioration and lack of chewing strength. Zygomatic implants allow our patients to achieve maximum oral function and an aesthetically pleasing smile.

Bone grafts (Sinus lifts and ridge augmentation)

Bone grafting techniques are used to replace bone that has been lost or reduced as a result of missing teeth or other facial diseases. At our cutting-edge surgical facilities at “Danthaja”, our oral surgeons

perform bone grafting treatments. Many patients who want dental implants must first undergo bone grafting to repair the bone beneath the dental arch. Previously, implant placement was impossible if there was too much bone loss, but breakthroughs in bone grafting techniques have enabled many people to have durable, permanent dental implants. To make the process as efficient and feasible, bone grafting techniques are sometimes performed concurrently with a tooth extraction.

There are several types of bone grafting techniques available, and depending on your condition, you may require one or more of the following:

Sinus lift – Will add bone to the area of the maxillary sinus so there is enough bone to place a dental implant in the upper canine and premolar area.
Socket preservation – After tooth extraction, socket preservations protect the bone around the empty tooth socket. To limit the number of treatments for the patient, the oral surgeon may put the bone transplant at the same time the tooth is pulled.
Ridge expansion – A ridge expansion increases the width of the alveolar ridge to make space for implants.
Major bone grafting – Major bone grafting and tissue regeneration treatments are utilized to repair jaw deformities caused by trauma, tumor surgery or birth malformations. For more complex treatments, bone is usually extracted from another place of the patient’s body. Some large bone grafting treatments necessitate an overnight stay in a hospital or care facility, but the majority of these procedures can be performed as outpatient procedures.

Facial Trauma

Facial injuries occur unexpectedly and can carry a great deal of distress as it affects ones’ appearance. When this occurs, the most qualified practitioner to treat facial injuries is an OMF surgeon, because an OMF surgeon is well trained in both oral and facial soft and hard tissue handling to restore the pre-injurious state of ones’ face.

Injuries caused by facial trauma include

Fractures of the jaw and/or other facial bones
Fractures of teeth or avulsions(tooth coming out of the socket)
Cuts to the face

Oral Surgery Services is available at “Danthaja”, for all of your oral and maxillofacial demands, including emergencies. Patients’ safety, comfort and care are our prime objectives. The optimal course of therapy will be determined by the degree and location of your injury.

Corrective jaw surgery (Orthognathic surgery)

Orthognathic surgery (also known as corrective jaw surgery) encompasses any technique that corrects bite problems or skeletal problems with the upper or lower jaw targeted to improve facial esthetics. Hundreds of orthognathic surgical treatments have been performed by our specialists. The goal is to improve a person’s bite and facial harmony, as well as to increase the size of the airway.

Diseases Of The Oral & Maxillofacial Region /Omf Pathology

We provide diagnosis and treatment for a wide range of oral disorders and conditions, from simple infections to oral cancer, at “Danthaja”. If you observe any irregularities, lumps, or changes in the appearance and feel of your mouth’s lining, you may be experiencing the first stage of a disease/pathological process. At “Danthaja”, we offer examinations of the maxillofacial region and oral cavity, perform biopsies and surgery for oral and maxillofacial pathologies. While most changes in the mouth are harmless, it is always wiser to have an expert OMF surgeon look in to it, to ensure it is not something to worry about. We see many different forms of oral and facial disorders in our office, the most dangerous out of all being oral cancer.

Problems Of The Jaw Joint (Tmj Disorders)

The joint that your jaw makes with the skull is called “temporomandibular joint or TMJ”. TMJ disorders are a group of issues that affect your jaw joint. Our OMF surgeons are experts in TMJ disorders and can diagnose and treat your TMJ issues. A feeling of discomfort, tightness, pain, clicking or snapping sounds in your jaw, sudden jaw locking may suggest that you are suffering from an undiagnosed TMJ problem. Once diagnosed, the primary aim of TMJ treatment is to alleviate pain. TMJ issues are treatable, but it takes time and continuous care. Treatment will vary based on the severity and nature of your TMJ problems. In general, the most effective therapies are a combination of self-care measures and expert assistance.

Impacted Teeth (Canines)

When teeth become caught beneath the gums and remain buried, they are said to be impacted. “Danthaja” can assist you if you or your child has buried canines. We can collaborate with you, our orthodontist, and our surgeon to assist the canine in erupting into the child’s mouth. When canines become impacted, it is critical to treat them promptly without a delay. Longer the canines remain trapped beneath the gums, the more difficult it will be for other teeth to emerge naturally. Therefore, timely treatment of such impacted canines should not be deferred unless you are ready to accept more problems pertaining to surrounding teeth or jaw bone.

Removal of wisdom teeth (Impacted third molars)

Wisdom teeth, also known as third molars, are the most posterior teeth in the mouth. These teeth typically begin to erupt and become visible in the mouth between the ages of 17 and 25 years. They are usually the last teeth to develop and are located in the back of your mouth, behind your second molars. It is normal to experience pain, swelling, or pressure in the back of the mouth when wisdom teeth develop. However, not everyone experiences pain. Even with little to no pain, wisdom teeth can still cause health problems and should be extracted promptly. If there is enough space, wisdom teeth can sometimes entirely erupt through the gum line into the dental arch. When this happens, it is possible that the tooth does not need to be extracted, but this is uncommon. The majority of wisdom teeth will either partially erupt through the gums or remain trapped beneath the gums. This is referred to as impaction. When a wisdom tooth partially emerges through the gums (impacted third molar), it attracts food and microorganisms. Wisdom teeth, if left untreated, can cause the following problems and more:

Pain and swelling
Chronic bad breath, caused by infection
Cysts or tumors that form around an infected wisdom tooth
Jaw stiffness
Damage to surrounding bone and gum tissue

With an oral examination and x-rays of the mouth, our specialists can evaluate the position of the wisdom teeth and predict if there are present or future potential problems. Studies have shown that early evaluation and treatment result in a superior outcome for the patient. Patients are generally first evaluated in their mid-teenage years by their dentist, orthodontist, or by an oral and maxillofacial surgeon. At a consultation visit at “Danthaja”, our specialist will complete an oral examination and we will take necessary scans (or X-rays) of your mouth.

To optimize patient comfort, all outpatient surgery is performed under a suitable anesthetic. We will give the chosen anesthetic on the day of surgery. Once you are at ease, your oral surgeon will use forceps to remove any erupted wisdom teeth. Impacted teeth must be surgically removed. To accomplish this, your surgeon will make an incision in the gum tissue to gain access to the tooth, which will then be removed after bone removal and tooth sectioning. Stitches will be placed at the extraction sites as needed, and you will wait until the anesthetic wears off. You should avoid working or going to school on the day of surgery. Depending on the complexity of the treatment and your surgeon’s instructions, most patients are able to resume their normal routine within a few days of surgery.

Tooth extractions

For a variety of reasons, you and our doctors may determine that you require tooth extraction. A tooth might sometimes become so damaged that it cannot be saved. Because some teeth are extremely decayed (dental caries), they must be removed. Others may have extensive gum disease (periodontal disease) or be broken (fractured) in an unrepairable fashion. Other teeth may need to be extracted because they are improperly positioned in the mouth (such as impacted teeth) or to prepare for orthodontic treatment. Even the removal of a single tooth can affect the looks of your smile, chewing abilities, and jaw joint, all of which can have a substantial impact on your oral cavity. To avoid these issues, our doctors will go over alternatives to extractions as well as tooth replacement.

Top Tooth Hidden Behind Bottom Tooth

This next patient’s left side top second tooth was hidden behind the other teeth and it had no space at all to come out. She could not even properly bite with that hidden tooth. But the braces solved that problem completely!

Missing Teeth

Life is not always fair. Some people are born with certain teeth missing. This patient below had not only crooked teeth, but she was missing one of her front teeth. Alas!!!. But with braces we were able to give her a beautiful confident smile.

Lower Jaw Coming Forward

Sometimes it’s your bottom jaw teeth which come forward. And this can give you the appearance of a Witch!!!. But with the braces, it’s no more something that you have to worry about.

Permanent Teeth Have Come Before Milk Teeth Are Fallen

Sometimes, permanent teeth can erupt before milk teeth fall off. Unfortunately, this can lead to future malocclusions. Therefore, most of the times, Orthodontists advice to get the over-retained milk tooth removed to minimize the severity of future problems. Depending on the condition and the placement of permanent teeth further orthodontic corrections may be needed. As a caring team, we offer not only the treatment, but also the aftercare and necessary follow up at “Danthaja” which uplifts our humane care to our patients.

Milk Teeth Not Falling After Permanent Teeth Eruption

Sometimes, permanent teeth can erupt before milk teeth fall off. Unfortunately, this can lead to future malocclusions. Therefore, most of the times, Orthodontists advice to get the over-retained milk tooth removed to minimize the severity of future problems. Depending on the condition and the placement of permanent teeth further orthodontic corrections may be needed. As a caring team, we offer not only the treatment, but also the aftercare and necessary follow up at “Danthaja” which uplifts our humane care to our patients.

Delayed Eruption Of Permanent Teeth

There are many reasons for delayed eruption. There can be buried normal or abnormal teeth inside the jaw bone preventing the coming out of permanent teeth or the permanent tooth itself can be buried in a deep or wrong place inside the bone. In these cases, certain methods are there to help the process of eruption of buried teeth such as pulling it with orthodontic wires or removing the impediment by minor surgeries. In such instances, Orthodontist has to work in collaboration with an Oral and Maxillofacial Surgeon. Under our “Danthaja” roof, we are pleased to deliver these kind of combined treatments with the active involvement of our specialists in all relevant fields.

Aligning Teeth Of A Grown Up

Guess what? You can have Orthodontic treatments to correct the malocclusions at any age. It’s not only for the kids and young people because everyone has the right to stay attractive irrespective of age. Of course, there can be certain limitations when it comes to treatment options. But with the modern developments in our field, nothing is impossible. “Danthaja” take pride in providing the best feasible adult orthodontic treatment plans to the carefully chosen candidate.

Therefore, the field of Orthodontics provides more esthetic treatment options like ceramic brackets, Invisaligners etc. At “Danthaja”, we are fortified with absolutely modernized words’ up to date aesthetic treatment options to serve your purpose, since our patient comfort is our prime concern.

Child Is Thumb Sucking!

Certain habits are so difficult to stop and thumb sucking among children is no exception. Unfortunately, this habit can cause various damages to your Childs’ dentition and the facial structure.

Lower Teeth Placed In Front Of Upper Teeth

Usually, our upper teeth are placed in front of our lower teeth. But there are instances where lower teeth stand far in the front and that kind of malocclusion is called a “Cross bite”. This condition gives you an appearance of a “witch”. But an Orthodontist can re-align your teeth in order that you can smile without any hesitation. The modality of treatment may vary on the degree of the problem and as we mentioned, it will be beyond the scope of a single speciality where a multimodal speciality board will have to partake in the workout of your treatment. We are delighted to offer all the necessary human resources representing the corresponding specialities at “Danthaja”, for your utmost convenience. We assure you that you will be prudently escorted under the guidance of our expert team until the targeted outcome is achieved to its best.

Teeth Jutting Out

This is one of the commonest complains of the patients and it is totally understandable that you feel less attractive with proclined upper or lower teeth. Yet, modern Orthodontics provide a wide spectrum of treatment options to overcome this aesthetic issue. The treatment type depends on the age of the patient. The treatment modalities are ranged from growth modifications in the adolescents to surgical corrections in the adult patients. “Danthaja” team is well resourced with both specialists and the technology to serve the best care to you. Not only that, but we are proud to offer the most advanced type of treatment i.e. Surgery for gross jaw bone deformities through a skillful team of doctors whom you can meet under the “Danthaja” roof concurrently.

Irregularly Placed/ Crooked Teeth

There are several orthodontic treatments available to correct this anomaly. The correction may require extraction of a few teeth placed far behind in your jaw, but that is not a must. The mild forms of irregularities can be corrected by simple orthodontic treatment modalities like removable invisialigners, but the complex cases will need braces fixed to teeth. We at “Danthaja Pewmium Orthodontic Chambers” are always ready to enlighten you about your orthodontic problem as well as the available treatment options as we believe that it is our patient’s right to know the aforesaid.

Full-mouth rehabilitation of tooth wear

Tooth wear is becoming a common problem in the contemporary population. This is commonly seen among young patients because of the excessive use of fizzy drinks and reflux medical conditions like gastritis. In Sri Lanka, this is commonly evident in the elderly population due to untimely extractions of posterior teeth. Management of tooth wear needs proper understanding of the causes, meticulous planning and proper execution of the plan. Otherwise, any treatment will be futile. Danthaja will offer you the best treatment options that would guarantee the best aesthetic outcomes with functional stability in tooth-wear cases.

Comprehensive management of developmental dental problems

Not all is blessed with a nice set of teeth with good shades and shapes. There are certain genetic causes and environmental causes that would cause severe defects in dental tissues. However, if properly identified and diagnosed, most of these problems can be corrected. These cases are best dealt with by a specialist in Restorative dentistry, simply because of the gravity of the problem and the complexity of the treatment options involved.

Aesthetic enhancement of the smile

Smile designing is an area of dentistry we are very proud to offer to our patients. This will be done after a careful assessment of the teeth and soft tissues and these patients will be seen by a panel of Danthaja experts to give you the best aesthetic outcomes. Newest software aided by CAD-CAM technology will be employed in these cases to optimize and pre-visualize the outcome.

Management of dental trauma

Danthaja will offer you the best, up-to-date immediate, intermediate and long-term treatment options for any dental trauma scenario after a traumatic injury to teeth. You will be able to reach our specialists in the event of dental trauma over the phone to get urgent advice and you will be guided to do what is best afterwards.

Aesthetic correction of gum [gingival] problems

Excessive growth of gum leading to reduced dental crown height, discolouration of gingiva or gummy smile can cause serious aesthetic concerns to some patients. These can be corrected either by conventional surgical means or laser treatments.

Management of discoloured teeth

Discolouration of teeth due to various causes is a common dental problem, patients are faced with. There are various techniques to manage this problem ranging from minimally invasive bleaching techniques to the provision of full crowns. Our experts will choose the best treatment option for you taking various factors such as age, degree and cause of discolouration into consideration.

Bleaching techniques – We use 10 % Carbamide peroxide in various forms in our bleaching techniques. This is the concentration approved to be used in the UK too, thus safety is guaranteed. Results are very predictable, so this is the prime treatment option we offer as it is the least damaging to the tooth structure.
Ceramic veneers – We use Lithium Disilicate [EMAX] in our veneer treatments, because it allows minimum preparation of teeth, whilst achieving superb aesthetic outcomes. This would give you the ‘’Hollywood smile’’ and is considered to be the pinnacle of dental aesthetic treatments, in good hands.
Dental crowns – This is hardly used nowadays in managing discoloured teeth due to its destructive nature. However, it is still of use in situations where a serious breakdown of tooth material is present concurrently with discolouration.

Replacement of missing teeth

When a tooth is missing due to extraction or if it is missing due to developmental causes [Hypodontia], it can be replaced by a variety of options ranging from removable dentures to implant-retained prosthesis.

Removable dentures – There is a conventional acrylic denture option which is the cheapest. Then, we can offer Flexible and Metal denture options to depending on the affordability and clinical condition of the remaining teeth and the soft tissues.
Resin-Bonded Bridges – These are commonly known as adhesive bridges, as these are cemented to an adjacent tooth. These are extremely conservative, as it does not require any tooth preparation and these bridges provide excellent aesthetic outcomes too. These bridges are especially useful in young patients, whose teeth are more liable to cause problems if cut for conventional bridges. We, at Danthaja are very keen on delivering minimally invasive procedures in replacing missing teeth.
Conventional bridges – These bridges are retained by the capping of adjacent teeth. Because of the invasiveness of this treatment option, we at Danthaja preserve it for selected cases, where adhesive and implant options are not feasible. However, these bridges are time-tested and guaranteed to give excellent aesthetic outcomes.
Implant retained crowns, and bridges – If there is no significant contraindication for implants such as ongoing bisphosphonate therapy or relative contraindication such as uncontrolled diabetes mellitus, implant therapy is considered to be the best treatment option to replace missing teeth. We, at Danthaja use only the recognized implant brands with adequate literature for our patients. Our surgeons will use guided surgery techniques to optimize the 3- D position of the implant to achieve excellent aesthetic outcomes and functional stability.
Implant retained dentures – When someone has lost all the teeth, the standard of care to replace missing teeth is implant-supported dentures. This is relatively a less expensive treatment option when compared to implant-retained bridges and allows the freedom to clean the implants too. This is known to produce good chewing efficiency and offer good aesthetic outcomes.
