Department of Dental Care at Jaslok Hospital & Research Centre

* The Dental Department at Jaslok Hospital, Mumbai, is a comprehensive centre for specialised, advanced, and patient-centred dental care for children and adults. The department offers a complete spectrum of treatment under one roof, from preventive and routine dentistry to complex restorative, surgical, aesthetic, implant, and rehabilitative procedures. Specialist-led care, advanced technology, digital workflows, laser dentistry, and the infrastructure of a multispecialty hospital enable personalised and coordinated treatment.

* Preventive and General Dentistry provides routine dental examinations, oral health screening, professional cleaning, preventive procedures, management of common dental conditions, and personalised oral hygiene guidance. Emphasis is placed on early diagnosis and timely intervention to prevent progression of dental disease and maintain long-term oral health.

* Conservative Dentistry and Endodontics provides treatment for carious, fractured, infected, and structurally compromised teeth. Services include restorative procedures, single-sitting and complex root canal treatments, management of challenging endodontic cases, and contemporary tooth-preserving techniques. Advanced diagnostic and clinical protocols are used to achieve predictable outcomes while preserving natural teeth wherever possible.

* Periodontology and Laser Dentistry focuses on the management of gingival and periodontal diseases, bleeding gums, periodontal tissue defects, and compromised supporting structures. Treatment aims to control disease, preserve natural teeth, improve periodontal health, and establish healthy foundations for restorative and implant procedures. Laser-assisted techniques further enhance selected periodontal and soft-tissue treatments.

* Prosthodontics and Implant Dentistry provides comprehensive rehabilitation for missing, damaged, and severely compromised teeth. Treatment includes crowns, bridges, fixed and removable prostheses, complete dentures, implant-supported crowns and bridges, and implant-supported dentures. Treatment planning focuses on restoring function, aesthetics, speech, comfort, occlusion, and long-term oral health.

* Cosmetic and Aesthetic Dentistry offers smile makeovers, veneers, aesthetic crowns, tooth-coloured restorations, professional whitening, and other aesthetic procedures. Treatment is planned according to facial harmony, dental proportions, occlusion, and individual aesthetic expectations to achieve natural-looking results.

* Digital Smile Designing (DSD) forms an important component of contemporary aesthetic treatment. Digital photography, facial analysis, intraoral scanning, and virtual treatment planning allow proposed aesthetic changes to be visualised before treatment. This improves patient-clinician communication, laboratory coordination, and personalised smile planning while supporting predictable aesthetic outcomes.

* The department also incorporates AI-assisted and digitally enabled dentistry into modern clinical workflows. Artificial intelligence can support radiographic analysis, diagnostic assessment, treatment planning, digital documentation, and clinical decision support. When integrated with specialist expertise and clinical judgement, these technologies can improve diagnostic efficiency, precision, communication, and personalised treatment planning.

* Orthodontic and Clear Aligner services address malalignment, crowding, spacing, and occlusal problems through conventional orthodontic treatment and contemporary clear aligner therapy. Treatment is planned to achieve improved function, dental alignment, and facial aesthetics.

* Paediatric Dentistry provides preventive, restorative, and comprehensive dental care for infants, children, and adolescents. Services focus on early diagnosis, prevention, management of developing dentition, restorative treatment, and establishing positive oral health practices from childhood.

* Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery provides management of complicated dental extractions and a wide range of dentoalveolar and maxillofacial surgical conditions. The hospital-based setting facilitates appropriate surgical planning and multidisciplinary medical support for patients requiring complex procedures or coordination with other specialties.

* A key strength of the department is complex full-mouth rehabilitation for patients with severely worn, damaged, extensively restored, or multiple missing teeth. Treatment may involve comprehensive diagnosis, digital planning, diagnostic wax-ups, occlusal analysis, periodontal and endodontic therapy, orthodontic correction, implant placement and restoration, surgical procedures, crowns, bridges, and definitive prosthetic rehabilitation. Multidisciplinary treatment sequencing enables coordinated restoration of function, occlusion, vertical dimension, aesthetics, phonetics, comfort, and long-term stability, particularly in complex cases requiring multiple specialties.

* The department’s strength lies in its integrated multidisciplinary model of care. Specialists can collaborate on diagnosis, treatment sequencing, surgical and restorative procedures, and maintenance, ensuring continuity throughout complex treatment. The combination of specialist expertise, digital and laser technology, and the medical infrastructure of Jaslok Hospital supports safe, precise, and comprehensive dental care.

* The Dental Department at Jaslok Hospital aims to provide contemporary, evidence-based, comprehensive, and compassionate dental care. By bringing preventive, paediatric, restorative, endodontic, periodontal, orthodontic, aesthetic, implant, prosthodontic, surgical, and rehabilitative expertise together, the department provides personalised treatment and a seamless multidisciplinary experience under one roof.
