They must also at least a couple times a year visit the dentist’s office.

Do not postpone a visit to the dentist until you start feeling a sharp toothache, tooth will get rotten or even fall out. Tooth decay can occur inside the tooth and for some time it can be invisible to the naked eye.
Do not forget that the most important way of preventing dental disease – correct routine oral care. In order to ensure healthy and beautiful teeth, it can not be enough to clean your teeth twice a day with a toothbrush and toothpaste. Daily use of dental floss, mouth rinse, interdental brushes is recommended.
Thorough and regular dental care helps to prevent dental caries, periodontal diseases it also prevents bad breath, poor aesthetic appearance.
Teeth filling – the most frequently performed procedure in the dental office. When the tooth needs filling?
A dental filling is necessary when tooth decay has damaged tooth enamel and there is caries cavity – tooth hole. Teeth are filled in order to preserve their hard tissues and to prevent the access of micro organisms to the internal structures of the tooth, the bone tissue.
Damaged and not filled teeth can become sensitive, painful, can break. After some time damaged teeth may need to be removed.
Is this procedure painful?
No, filling procedure is not painful. During it local anaesthesia is applied.
Who ensures that the procedure is carried out qualitatively and effectively?
In order to restore damaged teeth we use the most modern and most restorative materials. The high quality, well evaluated by all experts dental x-ray machine helps to detect damaged teeth hardly visible areas, the initial caries violations, especially between teeth, in the contact points.
What is the difference between simple and aesthetic filling?
Aesthetic filling of teeth differs from simple is that the fillings are completely invisible. The teeth, filled, using this method, look much nicer and more natural than prosthetic teeth. Aesthetic dental filling – perfect smile guarantor, true salvation for those who are afraid to smile because of the variety of teeth damages, caries hotspots fractured, tenuous teeth.
Won’t the teeth after aesthetic filling look artificial?
During aesthetic or restorative filling restorative materials of high aesthetic qualities, hardening in the light are used. According to their strength, adhesion to teeth and other physical properties, they can be comparable to the natural teeth.
During the procedure, the dentist as a jeweller, using the stratification method, thoroughly and accurately reproduces the natural tooth surface. Filling molars, mounds, which are in the masticatory surface are precisely reproduced. They are very important in the process of chewing, as well as to keep the height of the bite, protecting the teeth from wear.
Aesthetic restoration is irreplaceable for those, who want to change the colour and shape of teeth. After professionally performed aesthetic filling the restored teeth look naturally. In their transparency, shape, colour, surface, they certainly do not remind of artificial teeth.
Won’t aesthetic filling damage the tissues of the healthy tooth?
Aesthetic restoration helps to repair various congenital or acquired dental effects. In addition, it can reduce tooth sensitivity. Remember – correct tooth shape is important not only for aesthetics, but also for the normal functioning of the tooth. During aesthetic dental restoration procedure only damaged, the aesthetic appearance uglifying tissues are removed.
What is endodontic treatment?
From Greek language endodontics means science about the “inside” of the tooth, that is dental root canal treatment
When this type of treatment is needed?
Endodontic treatment is necessary when tooth decay extends to the pulp of the tooth (the vascular and nerve fibre optic inside of the tooth) The earliest symptoms of infection or inflammation in damaged pulp – prolonged sensitivity to heat or cold, discoloration of the tooth, swelling of the gums and their sensitivity near inflamed or infected tooth.
Root canal treatment may be needed after the trauma, the consequence of which – split or broken teeth.
The main root canal treatment goal – to destroy micro organisms in root canal system and protect the tooth and surrounding tissues from infection.
During treatment, a few X-rays of dental root are made. Then during the procedure root canals are cleaned, disinfected, and then hermetically filled. If the patient wishes, during the procedure anaesthesia can be applied. Most often endodontic treatment is carried out during several visits to the dentist. But the teeth, healed by this method can function well for a lifetime.
What complications can bring untreated root canals?
Without treatment, root canals can lead to serious complications – formation of inflammatory locus of an infected tooth can lead to melting the jaw bone. Untreated tooth pulp inflammation or infection can cause other serious health problems. Furthermore, it may lead to tooth loss.
Why is sometimes the re-treatment of tooth root canals needed?
Even in an ideal root canal treatment nobody can guarantee that the micro-channels will not multiply and cause adverse symptoms. Because of an infection or inflammation of root canals one can feel not well, tooth sensitivity and toothache can occur, pustules can get formed by the tooth, face can start swelling or without any symptoms bone around the infected tooth roots can start atrophying.
During endodontic re-treatment procedures is performed re-root canal preparation, removal of the old canal filling. The newest technologies help to achieve very successful results in the treatment of secondary channel.
