Common questions about Therapeutic dentistry
When can caries be treated without more complex procedures?
The earlier you come in, the more likely treatment can be limited to removing damaged tissue and placing a filling without deeper intervention.
Does tooth pain always mean root canal treatment?
No. Pain can have different causes, and a final decision is made only after clinical examination and diagnostics.
How long does a filling last?
It depends on the size of the restoration, bite load, oral hygiene and other individual factors. Regular checkups help monitor its condition.
Can a severely chipped tooth be restored?
Often yes, but the approach depends on how much healthy tissue remains. After the examination, the dentist may suggest a filling, direct restoration or prosthodontic option.
What should I do if an old filling falls out?
It is best not to delay the visit. Exposed tooth tissue can quickly lose protection, which increases the risk of further complications.
