The Science of Caries
Caries is not just a “hole” in a tooth, but the result of a complex process of interaction between bacteria, acids and food debris in the oral cavity. This disease begins invisibly, destroying the enamel – the protective layer of the tooth. Gradually, if no measures are taken, it penetrates into deeper structures, threatening the nerves and the root of the tooth.
Many factors influence the development of caries: improper hygiene, excess sugar in the diet, weakened immunity. It is important to understand that caries is not inevitable, but the result of neglecting prevention. Modern treatment methods allow you to eliminate the problem in the early stages and avoid serious consequences.
How we treat teeth
Imagine a cozy office where the light plays with soft shades, and a caring doctor is ready to listen to your complaints. Caries treatment today does not resemble the scary stories of the past. We use advanced materials and technologies to make the process comfortable and safe.
In our clinic “Ukrainian Dentistry” treatment begins with diagnostics. Special digital methods allow us to accurately determine the scale of the problem. The next step is the removal of affected tissue and restoration of the tooth with aesthetic and durable fillings that completely replicate the natural color and shape of the tooth.
Story of one patient
Zhanna, a young mother of two children, came to us complaining of increased tooth sensitivity. After examination, it turned out that her problem was the initial stage of caries and non-carious lesions of the enamel. Thanks to timely treatment, we were able to solve her problem in just two visits.
The first step was professional teeth cleaning and strengthening of the enamel with remineralizing compounds. During the second visit, we eliminated caries using modern laser technologies. Zhanna left with a smile, realizing that regular visits to the dentist are the key to the health of her teeth.
Non-carious lesions
Non-carious lesions of teeth are a mystery to many patients. These conditions are not associated with bacterial activity, but can be no less destructive. These include enamel erosion, hypoplasia, fluorosis and wedge-shaped defects.
The causes of non-carious lesions are varied: from excessive consumption of acidic foods to improper brushing of teeth. Treatment is aimed at restoring the structure of the tooth and eliminating the causes of damage. The methods we use, such as composite restorations and fluoride varnish coatings, guarantee long-lasting results.
Modern technologies
Imagine that dental treatment no longer causes fear. Lasers, computer technology and minimally invasive methods make the process not only precise, but also virtually painless. At Ukrainian Dentistry, we are proud that our patients feel comfortable.
A special place in treatment is occupied by CAD/CAM technology – computer modeling and production of crowns and inlays directly in the clinic. This not only saves the patient’s time, but also ensures perfect precision and aesthetics.
Maintaining a healthy smile
Treatment is only half the way to healthy teeth. The other half is prevention. Regular professional examinations, teeth cleaning and enamel strengthening are the three pillars on which the health of your smile is built.
We strive not only to treat, but also to teach our patients how to properly care for their teeth. After all, only through joint efforts can we achieve long-term results. Our mission is to make every smile healthy and every visit enjoyable.
Health, confidence, beauty
Treatment of caries and non-carious lesions of teeth is not only about medicine, but also about care, beauty and confidence. At the Ukrainian Dentistry clinic, we strive to give patients not only health, but also the joy of communication. After all, every healthy tooth is a contribution to your quality of life.
Trust your smile to professionals, and we will do everything so that you smile with pleasure every day.
