Restorative and Endodontic Treatments

RESTORATIVE DENTAL TREATMENT (FILLING)

Due to incorrect tooth brushing, inadequate dental care and poor nutrition, teeth decay and there is a loss of substance in the decayed area. When a decayed tooth is filled, the decayed part is cleaned and the existing cavity is closed with a material that is compatible with the tooth and surrounding tissues. Increased sensitivity of the teeth to hot and cold foods and pain due to other reasons are symptoms of tooth decay. If tooth decay, which is usually noticed during a dental examination, is not treated in a timely manner, the decay spreads to the root of the tooth and the tooth may be extracted. By treating a tooth that has started to decay as soon as possible, tooth loss and unbearable pain are prevented.
