Caries treatment in Warsaw – fast and painless
Caries is one of the most common dental problems in the world. According to WHO, about 2.5 billion people suffer from untreated dental caries, which indicates the need for early diagnosis. Without treatment, the carious process spreads to the dentin, which can cause acute pain, inflammation of the pulp (pulpitis), and the formation of an infectious focus in the root (periodontitis).
At the initial stage, when only the surface of the tooth is affected, treatment is relatively simple. Minimal intervention and a filling are enough to stop the process and keep the tooth healthy. Astra Dent specialists in Warsaw use microinvasive approaches and modern anesthetics, combining them with digital diagnostics to achieve long-term results.
Why do patients choose Astra Dent Warsaw for caries treatment?
Timely treatment of minor caries prevents complications that threaten inflammation of the internal structures of the tooth, gums and periodontium – the tissues that surround and hold the root in the jaw. It is at the early stage that accuracy, the use of proven materials and quality control are important so that the restoration serves for many years. In such cases, the choice of dentistry is crucial, because the stability of the result depends on the professionalism of doctors and the technical equipment of the medical institution.
Advantages of treating tooth caries at Astra Dent:
- Latest materials and techniques. We use the latest generation photopolymer composites for fillings, which reproduce the color and transparency of enamel. Microinvasive preparation allows you to remove only the affected tissue, preserving healthy tooth structures.
- Warranty on fillings – 1 year. In case of damage to the filling during the warranty period, we will replace it free of charge, provided that you follow the doctor’s recommendations and hygiene rules.
- Comfortable treatment conditions. During treatment, modern anesthetics are used that act quickly and safely. The use of a rubber dam (isolation system) provides a dry working field, thanks to which the filling is fixed tightly and reliably.
- Comfortable dentistry in the center of the capital. Astra Dent Medical Center is located in the center of Warsaw, which is easily accessible by public transport or by car. The reception takes place in spacious offices with modern equipment that meets European standards.
- Doctors who speak your native language. Consultations are available in Ukrainian, Polish, and English. This helps to avoid misunderstandings and clearly formulate your requests for therapy.
The combination of high-quality materials, technologies, and the experience of doctors allows Astra Dent to guarantee aesthetics and durability of the result.
How to understand that you have caries?
Initial stage caries is limited to one surface of the tooth without affecting the deep layers of dentin or pulp. Violation of the enamel structure is indicated by small spots, changes in color or slight sensitivity to cold or sweet.
The main signs of caries in the initial stages:
- A stain on the enamel. It can be white, chalky, sometimes pigmented in a yellow or brown shade, which indicates the leaching of minerals.
- Mild sensitivity. Patients complain of unpleasant sensations when drinking cold drinks, acidic or sweet foods, which occur due to irritation of the upper layers of the enamel.
- No pain. At the initial stage, caries does not affect the nerve, so the patient often does not experience symptoms.
- Surface roughness. When probing, the dentist detects an area in which the enamel has become less smooth and has begun to collapse.
Early detection of caries allows you to do without complex interventions and preserve most of the healthy tissue. Regular diagnostics at the dentist is the best way not to miss the beginning of the carious process and save money in the future.
How is caries treated at Astra Dent Warsaw?
Treatment at Astra Dent Warsaw meets European standards: digital technologies, certified materials and techniques are used that preserve the maximum amount of healthy tissue. Specialists with many years of experience restore the tooth taking into account function, aesthetics and long-term stability of the result.
Examination and diagnostics
The first stage involves a thorough examination, which allows us to determine the extent of the lesion. For this, doctors use a dental microscope and targeted radiography:
- Clinical examination. The specialist assesses the condition of the teeth, determines the localization of the lesion and associated problems.
- Targeted X-ray. Astra Dent Warsaw specialists check whether the dentin is affected or whether there are signs of subsurface damage that require a different approach.
Clear diagnostics allow us to plan the intervention and avoid complications in the future. The patient receives a complete picture of the condition of the teeth and the prognosis for treatment.
Cleaning the affected area
After making a diagnosis, the dentist proceeds to remove the damaged tissues. They use technologies that allow to avoid excessive preparation:
- Microinvasive burs. The dentist uses special attachments for jewelry-like precision during the treatment of a carious cavity.
- Air-abrasive treatment. A jet of small particles of air and abrasive is used to delicately remove the damaged layer without overheating or cracking.
- Disinfection of the cavity. After cleaning, the doctor uses antiseptics or oxidants to destroy bacteria that may have remained.
Thanks to modern treatment methods, only local intervention occurs, without removing excess tissue.
Filling with modern materials matching the color of the tooth
The final stage is the restoration of the shape and function of the tooth using photopolymer materials. They are matched in color to natural teeth, so the restoration looks invisible:
- Adhesive system. Astra Dent specialists use bonds that ensure strong adhesion of the material to the enamel so that the filling does not peel off.
- Photopolymer composites. The materials are selected according to the color scale, correspond to the natural transparency of the tooth, and have high resistance to loads.
- Polishing and finishing. After the material hardens, the doctor grinds and polishes the filling to achieve shine, smoothness, and avoid plaque accumulation.
The final appearance of the restoration should be inconspicuous among other teeth, with proper contact with neighboring and opposing teeth. This ensures comfort during chewing and prevents further damage and irritation.
Advantages of early treatment at Astra Dent Warsaw
For Astra Dent dentists, it is important not only to stop the pathological process, but also to preserve the natural tissues of the tooth so that it remains strong and functional for many years. Timely referral to specialists has a number of advantages:
- Preservation of own tissues. At the initial stage, only the demineralized area of the enamel is removed, so healthy structures remain intact. In this way, it is possible to preserve the natural strength of the tooth.
- Quickness of treatment. The intervention takes about 30-40 minutes and is performed in one appointment, after which the patient can immediately return to his usual lifestyle.
- Painlessness. Thanks to modern anesthetics and microinvasive techniques, the treatment is painless even for patients with increased sensitivity.
- Use of innovative materials. New generation photopolymer fillings reproduce the transparency and color of enamel. They do not darken over time and withstand chewing loads.
- Financial benefit. Early treatment is much cheaper than deep caries treatment or tooth crown restoration.
Timely intervention allows Astra Dent patients to avoid significant complications and preserve the tooth in its natural form for many years. This is the optimal approach from both a medical and an economic point of view.
