TREATMENT OF CARIES IN KYIV

What is caries?

Caries is the destruction of dental tissue with the formation of a cavity under the influence of external factors. The initial stage of caries is the defeat and destruction of tooth enamel. Deep caries is the stage when the disease penetrates the dentin.

Causes of caries

One of the main causes of tooth decay is harmful cariogenic bacteria that live in the oral cavity. Plaque is the most favorable environment for their reproduction. The destructive effect of these bacteria on tooth enamel is exacerbated by its mechanical damage - chips, scratches, cracks. A lack of calcium in the body also leads to the destruction of enamel and, as a consequence, to the development of caries.

Why caries should be treated

If treatment of caries is not started in time, the disease affects the internal tissues of the tooth and passes into pulpitis (inflammation of the neurovascular bundle) or periodontitis (inflammation of the ligaments of the tooth). The tooth decays from the inside, and bad breath is the most harmless consequence of this process. And even tooth loss is not the worst. The infection that accumulates in the cavity formed passes through the bloodstream into the body. From complex diseases to blood poisoning - this is what can turn out to be a refusal to treat tooth decay.

Therapies

The most common treatment for caries is tooth filling. However, at the initial stage, you can do without it. Caries at the spot stage is treated with a course of remineralizing applications that strengthen tooth tissue and prevent the development of the disease.
