Areas of Expertise
Dr. Nikhil Kapoor offers a complete range of dental and oral surgical services. Below is a detailed look at each procedure he specialises in:
Root Canal Treatment (RCT)
Endodontic treatment to save badly decayed or infected teeth. Dr. Nikhil performs RCTs using modern rotary endodontic systems with digital X-rays, ensuring precision, minimal discomfort, and a high long-term success rate.
Single Sitting RCT
For eligible cases, the entire root canal can be completed in a single appointment. This reduces patient visits, minimises post-procedure sensitivity, and is ideal for patients with busy schedules or dental anxiety.
Dental Implants
Permanent, fixed replacement for missing teeth using titanium implants placed into the jawbone. Suitable for single-tooth, multi-tooth, and full-arch cases — backed by detailed pre-surgical planning and 3D imaging where required.
Oral & Maxillofacial Surgery
Surgical management of conditions affecting the mouth, jaws and facial structures — including cyst removals, biopsies, jaw corrections, and complex extractions that require operating-theatre-level precision.
Wisdom & Impacted Tooth Extraction
Surgical removal of impacted third molars and other deeply positioned teeth. Performed under local or sedation anaesthesia with careful post-operative protocols to minimise swelling and downtime.
Bone Grafting
Reconstructive procedure to rebuild lost jawbone before implant placement. Critical for patients with long-term tooth loss or significant bone resorption — enables predictable, long-lasting implant outcomes.
Sinus Lift Surgery
Specialised surgical procedure to add bone height in the upper back jaw before placing implants in the molar region. Essential for patients whose maxillary sinus has expanded due to long-standing tooth loss.
Facial Trauma & Fracture Treatment
Management of jaw fractures, dento-alveolar trauma, and soft-tissue injuries from accidents or falls. Includes wiring, plating, and reconstructive techniques to restore both function and facial aesthetics.
Temporomandibular Joint (TMJ) Disorders
Diagnosis and treatment of jaw joint pain, clicking, locking, and chronic headaches related to TMJ dysfunction. Treatment plans range from conservative splint therapy and physiotherapy to advanced surgical intervention.
Crowns & Bridges
Custom-fabricated crowns and bridges to restore broken, weakened, or missing teeth. Wide range of materials including zirconia and high-grade ceramics for natural aesthetics and lasting durability.
Complete & Partial Dentures
High-quality removable prosthetics for patients with multiple missing teeth, designed for comfortable fit, natural appearance, and proper chewing function. Includes immediate dentures so patients are never without teeth.
Immediate Dentures
Dentures fabricated in advance and fitted on the same day teeth are extracted — so patients leave the clinic with a confident smile and uninterrupted ability to speak and eat.
