RESTORATIVE DENTISTRY AND ENDODONTICS<\/h1>\n[\/vc_column_text][vc_column_text]\n

A healthy and functional smile begins with proper care and restoration of damaged teeth.<\/p>\n[\/vc_column_text][vc_separator color=”turquoise”][vc_column_text]\n

COMPOSITE FILLINGS<\/h4>\n[\/vc_column_text][vc_column_text]\n
\n
Discreet and efficient restoration<\/strong><\/h6>\n

Composite (white) fillings are used to repair minor to medium-sized tooth damage caused by caries or trauma. They are made of a material that aesthetically adapts to the color of the natural tooth, providing an invisible but reliable solution.<\/p>\n

Advantages of composite fillings:<\/strong><\/h6>\n
    \n
  • Aesthetically natural appearance – They blend perfectly with the color of the teeth.<\/li>\n
  • Minimally invasive procedure \u2013 The maximum amount of healthy tissue is preserved.<\/li>\n
  • Immediate Functionality \u2013 The seal is solid and functional immediately after placement.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n

    In the case of major tooth destruction, when the filling cannot provide sufficient stability and durability, the solution is more advanced ceramic restorations such as Inlay<\/strong> , Onlay<\/strong> and Overlay<\/strong> restorations.<\/div>\n[\/vc_column_text][vc_column_text]\n

    ENDODONTICS<\/h4>\n[\/vc_column_text][vc_column_text]\n

    Saving teeth with root canal treatment<\/strong><\/h6>\n

    Endodontics is a branch of dentistry that deals with the diagnosis and treatment of infections and inflammation inside the tooth itself. When bacteria penetrate the pulp space (the so-called nerve) and cause an infection, root canal treatment is necessary to save the tooth and avoid its extraction.[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column_inner][vc_column_inner width=”1\/2″ css=”.vc_custom_1744734354147{padding-right: 50px !important;}”][vc_empty_space height=”7px”][vc_column_text]\n

    1. Diagnostics<\/strong> – Accurate imaging of teeth using a digital X-ray machine.<\/li>\n
    2. Removal of infection<\/strong> \u2013 Thorough cleaning and disinfection of the root canal.<\/li>\n
    3. Root canal filling<\/strong> \u2013 Filling with the most modern materials and methods for this purpose, thus preventing the re-spread of the infection.<\/li>\n
    4. Tooth reconstruction<\/strong> – After treatment, the tooth is restored with a composite material or a ceramic restoration (crown, inlay, onlay, overlay).<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n[\/vc_toggle][vc_toggle title=”Why is it important to save a tooth with root canal treatment?” style=”square” color=”turquoise” custom_font_container=”tag:h6|text_align:left|color:%2316a8b2″ custom_google_fonts=”font_family:Montserrat%3Aregular%2C700|font_style:400%20regular%3A400%3Anormal” use_custom_heading=”true”]\n

        RETREATMENT<\/h4>\n[\/vc_column_text][vc_column_text]\n

        Revision of previously treated canals<\/strong><\/h6>\n

        If the previous treatment did not bring the desired result, the symptoms are present again or the dentist notices signs of infection on the x-ray, it is necessary to re-treat the root canals and clean them of infection again.<\/p>\n

        What does the retreatment process look like?<\/strong><\/h6>\n
          \n
        • Removing the old filling<\/li>\n
        • re-disinfection of the canal and medication if necessary<\/li>\n
        • Channel refill<\/li>\n
        • New, hermetically sealed filling for long-term tooth protection<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n

          If the symptoms do not subside even after this, the tooth is indicated for an apicotomy.[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column_inner][vc_column_inner width=”1\/2″ css=”.vc_custom_1744734343776{padding-right: 50px !important;}”][vc_empty_space height=”7px”][vc_column_text]\n
