Therapeutic dentistry – is the department, in which, as a rule, begins a visit to dental clinic and the determination of the work plan to improve the health of oral cavity. This branch of dentistry is the base of the patient preparation for other types of dental treatment and deals with the prevention and treatment of oral diseases.
Which diseases treat therapeutic dentistry?
The first thing we think, remembering the department of therapeutic dentistry, is dental caries. At the same time there are plenty of other oral diseases treated by dentist-therapist:
- gingivitis;
- periodontitis;
- mucosal disease;
- abnormal abrasion;
- non-carious lesions (fluorosis, enamel hypoplasia);
- cracked, chipped enamel;
- wedge-shaped defects.
Modern dentistry also deals with the restoration of dental tissues destroyed for a number of reasons. Therefore, in addition to the treatment of caries, this includes such areas as aesthetic restoration, teeth whitening, and treatment of gum disease.
Trends in Dentistry
Dentistry is developing in a fairly rapid pace. 2 years ago we could not think that treatment of caries
or restoration of damaged enamel can occur naturally inside, using only a drop of solution, without drilling a tooth with dental drill. Nowadays, visiting the dentist is not terrible. Even if you are very afraid of toothache, we can apply medical sleep, during which you will be sleeping while our dentists will make your teeth healthy under the supervision of experienced anesthetist.
The best solution is to prevent teeth and oral cavity disease or to identify it at an early stage. This is why we recommend visiting therapist-dentist for routine inspection twice a year.
Make an appointment
We offer you to make an appointment to a physician of aesthetic dentistry “PRIZMA” in Kiev for routine inspection, especially if the last time when you have visited him had been more than 6 months ago. Prices for teeth therapeutic treatment you can find in our price list.
