Caries Treatment
Description of procedure
Caries is one of the most prevalent issues affecting both adults and children within the oral cavity. It arises due to acids produced by bacteria on the tooth surfaces. These acids degrade their hard tissues, leading to the disease.
Causes of caries development include:
– Poor dietary habits. – Inadequate oral hygiene practices. – Abnormalities in saliva composition or systemic conditions such as diabetes mellitus.
Indications for caries treatment and tooth restoration:
– Brief pain or tooth sensitivity during meals, or with hot or cold beverages. – Identification of white or dark spots, as well as cavities upon examination. – Presence of an old filling with poor adaptation to the tooth and secondary caries formation.
Contraindications for filling placement:
– Deep caries penetration affects the nerve tissue (requiring more radical approaches such as nerve removal and endodontic treatment). – Presence of other significant oral cavity diseases (stomatitis, periodontitis, gingivitis, etc.). – Extensive tooth caries lesion area (in which case special overlays or crowns are installed). – Allergy to the materials used.
In any case, it is necessary to consult with a specialist to choose the most suitable and effective treatment method. In the event of caries treatment during the consultation visit, the cost of the dentist’s consultation will be 0 zł.
