What is tooth decay & fillings?

Tooth decay, is a common dental disease caused by bacteria that accumulate in the oral cavity. These bacteria produce acids that attack the tooth enamel and can cause cavities (caries) in the tooth. Dental fillings are a common procedure to treat tooth decay. In this treatment, the decayed tissue is removed and replaced with a filling material to restore the function and aesthetics of the tooth.

How does caries & dental fillings work?

Examination of the teeth
The process begins with a thorough, personalised examination of your teeth. Our team uses modern x-rays to precisely determine the extent of the caries and explain the findings to you in a transparent manner.

Removal of the diseased tissue
Once the carious areas have been identified, we remove the affected tissue under local anaesthetic. We ensure that you feel comfortable and safe during the entire procedure.

Cleaning and filling
We then clean the tooth thoroughly and work with you to choose the right filling material. This procedure is usually painless and allows us to quickly restore the function of your tooth while catering to your individual needs.

Advantages of caries & dental fillings

Pain relief

Caries can cause pain and sensitivity. By removing the decayed tissue and inserting a filling, this discomfort is effectively eliminated so that you can eat and drink again without worry.

Preservation of the tooth structure

Timely fillings can preserve the tooth and prevent the caries from spreading further. This protects neighbouring teeth and reduces the risk of further dental diseases.

Aesthetics

Modern filling materials, such as composite, can be matched in colour so that the filling is almost invisible. This makes for a beautiful smile and increases self-confidence.

What you should know about caries & dental fillings

It is important to schedule regular visits to the dentist in order to recognise tooth decay at an early stage. Our team is here to help by offering personalised appointments for check-ups and informing you of the best time for your next visit.

Good oral hygiene, including daily brushing and flossing, is essential to reduce the risk of tooth decay. We will show you specific techniques and give you tips on how to improve your oral hygiene. If necessary, we also recommend fluoride treatments to strengthen the enamel and make the teeth more resistant to decay. Our aim is to provide you with comprehensive support and take preventive measures so that you can maintain a healthy smile.
