Tooth cavity is a painful disorder caused by some causes that lower our living standards. Tooth cavity makes bad breath, causes unbearable pain, and affects the appearance of our teeth. If not treated early, it can cause tooth extractions.
Stopping: It is the treatment method that is noticed at the early stage and applied in cases where tooth cavity is not very advanced. The tooth that occurs in cavity is anesthetized by local anesthesia method before application.
The rotten area is cleaned with the help of special devices and made ready for filling. The process ends by applying the filler to the cleaned area.
Root Canal treatment: It is used in cases where the cavity in the tooth spreads to the nerves. The goal is to save one’s own tooth and stop the cavity. The rotten part of the tooth, which is anesthetized with local anesthesia before application, is cleaned with special devices.
Damaged nerves are killed, ensuring that the person achieves the standard of living without further sensitivity and with minimal damage. The process is terminated by closing the area with filler material.
Tooth Extraction: In dental treatments, patients’ teeth are primarily saved. However, in cases where the tooth becomes unrecoverable and there is a possibility that the cavity may spread to other teeth, the treatment is terminated by tooth extraction.
Implant treatment, prosthetic teeth are made if desired after tooth extraction and the problems that may arise from the lack of teeth of the patient are treated in such a way that they are closest to the original tooth.
Bonding: Filling implementation on the tooth can cause image disorders, especially in the cavity and staining of the front teeth. At this point, the most preferred bonding treatment is to remove the mold after the patient’s caries front teeth or teeth are cleaned from caries and applied, and the appropriate tint and size coating is produced.
The produced coating is glued to the prepared area with special adhesive material, creating the performance and image closest to the original teeth of the patients. For detailed information on the subject, you can read our article titled Dental Bonding.
What should be considered in the treatment of cariosities?
Tooth cavity has become a common problem, especially with the change of eating and drinking habits today. The most important thing to pay attention to at this point is the early diagnosis of tooth cavity. Intervention at an early stage will allow the caries to grow and the treatment process to be easily overcome.
Another thing to note is that the filler is preferred correctly. The filler that will be found in our mouth will be in direct contact with our mouth and the food that will reach our stomach. You need to choose the filler that is most right for your budget and health.
What should be considered after stopping?
Stopping is a special substance applied after cleaning the damaged areas of the rotten teeth of the patients.
The main goal is to prevent sensitivity and cavity by closing the gap in the area. At this point, in order not to renew the caries and to avoid similar problems;
- Oral and dental care should be taken care of.
- Oral and dental cleaning should be done after each meal using dental care products recommended by your specialist dentist.
- Avoid acidic and sugary foods.
- Harmful and addictive substances such as cigarettes, alcohol and drugs should not be used.
- Hard food should be avoided and shells such as nuts, peanuts and walnuts should not be broken in the teeth. Hard food and nuts can cause the tooth to break or the filling to fall off in sensitive areas.
