Therapeutic (endodontic) treatment

Cavities, lost fillings, dental decay, and abscesses under the gums — our therapeutic dentistry services address these issues swiftly and without discomfort. Innovations in dental tools, materials, techniques, and technology elevate the standard of care, making it possible to save teeth even in situations that initially seem dire.

Therapeutic dentistry encompasses the non-surgical treatment and restoration of teeth, serving as the foundational first step in most dental care plans. This includes essential procedures like oral cleaning and sanitation, preparing the mouth for further dental work. Our clinic utilizes the latest in endodontic therapy and treatment, ensuring effective results for patients seeking relief and restoration.

When you need a dental therapist?

Most often, endodontic treatment is necessary for addressing caries and its complications.

You need the help of an endodontist if you have the following problems:

  • Spots, cracks, and chips on your teeth;
  • Presence of carious cavities;
  • Darkening of enamel;
  • Discoloration of teeth (teeth turned black from the inside);
  • Aching or acute toothache;
  • Swelling of parotid tissue, pus discharge;
  • Fluorosis.

In addition, endodontic therapy includes not only the treatment of dental fillings and canals but also sealing cracks, eliminating enamel hypersensitivity, diagnosing and treating non-carious lesions, and addressing gum diseases.

Endodontic treatment is essential for both adult and pediatric dentistry. Treating deciduous teeth in children is as important as treating molars. Maintaining a healthy and clean oral cavity is crucial, regardless of age.

Diagnostics

Endodontic diseases are detected using various examination methods:

  • Thermal Testing: Heat and cold are used to determine the reaction of dental tissues. These techniques help differentiate between caries, pulpitis (inflammation of the soft tissues within the tooth cavity), and periodontitis (inflammation of the ligament holding the tooth in place)
  • X-Ray Examination: Intraoral, sighting, and panoramic images, as well as external images including 3D studies (layered images), are performed. This allows for the diagnosis of hidden processes occurring in a chronic form without causing discomfort to the patient

By utilizing these diagnostic methods, we ensure accurate detection and effective treatment planning for all endodontic issues.

Dental treatment

Endodontic treatment focuses on preserving teeth by treating caries, pulpitis, periodontitis, and other dental diseases. Maintaining natural teeth is crucial as their absence can lead to numerous issues, often requiring prosthetics. Early caries treatment for children is essential to prevent future dental problems.

Therapeutic dentistry for anterior teeth is particularly important, not only for curing the tooth but also for preserving the aesthetics of a smile.

A sphenoid defect is a common issue that demands prompt intervention to prevent further damage, such as the spreading of the defect to the neck and the breaking of the tooth crown. Treatment for a sphenoid defect varies depending on the extent of tooth damage.

Modern tools and treatment technologies allow you to save even those teeth that were previously considered hopeless, so today many problems are solved by dental therapists without contacting surgeons. Endodontic treatment helps to get rid of even deep caries without the need for tooth extraction.

Treatment of diseases of the oral cavity and gums

Endodontic treatment for diseases of the oral cavity and gums, including stomatitis, gingivitis, and periodontitis, focuses on conservative therapeutic methods, especially in the early stages. The dentist-therapist selects the optimal medications and performs various non-surgical manipulations to effectively combat diseases of the soft tissues in the oral cavity. For patients requiring repeat endodontic treatment, our clinic offers personalized care to ensure comprehensive management of dental conditions and maintain oral health.

Restoration of teeth

Restoration is the restoration of the appearance of teeth using various composite materials. Restoration is often singled out separately in aesthetic dentistry, but in fact aesthetic dentistry is only a subsection of therapeutic dentistry. In some cases, tooth restoration with filling is required.

It's important to note that while restoration and prosthetics share similarities, prosthetics is not a part of therapeutic dentistry. For comprehensive endodontic treatment, including repeat endodontic procedures and endodontic therapy, our clinic offers advanced solutions to ensure optimal dental health and aesthetics.

Teeth cleaning and whitening

Teeth cleaning and whitening are integral parts of therapeutic dentistry. Professional dental hygiene is often performed by individual dental hygienists, but it remains a crucial therapeutic manipulation. Teeth whitening, commonly associated with aesthetic dentistry, is also considered a form of therapeutic dentistry.

Important: Modern tools and advanced treatment technologies enable the preservation of teeth that were previously considered unsalvageable. Today, many dental issues are effectively resolved by dental therapists without needing surgical intervention. For comprehensive endodontic treatment, including repeat endodontic procedures and endodontic therapy, our clinic offers advanced solutions to ensure optimal dental health and aesthetics.
