General dental treatment methods have shown great progress with the development of technology. Today, dental treatments are now applied in a manner close to reality. There are many treatment forms that carry a natural tooth appearance. At the same time, dental treatments ensure that positive results are achieved in terms of aesthetics as well.
Among dental treatment methods, dental pains that make life difficult are generally treated due to cavities. The treatment is carried out by applying a direct medical procedure to the patient's discomfort. With developing technology, general dentistry has also changed and evolved. First of all, along with the compensation of the functional loss presented to the patient, the compensation of aesthetic and phonetic losses can also be provided. All treatments suitable for individuals are carried out by our specialist physicians.
Dental Examination
Dental examination; is an examination applied by dentists aiming to determine whether there is a health problem related to both teeth and gums inside the mouth. Every person, without exception, must have this examination regularly. Thus, it will be possible to determine existing problems at an early stage, and to plan and implement treatments for the solution of these problems. Early diagnosis is important for dental and gum disorders as it is for all diseases.
When you go to a specialist for a routine dental examination, if you have any complaints about oral and dental health, you should definitely inform your dentist. Sometimes, mild bleeding while brushing teeth or occasional aches are not taken seriously by individuals and the dentist is not informed. However, complaints should definitely be shared with the dentist, because a complaint considered insignificant by the person may actually be a harbinger of a problem related to oral and dental health.
Crown
Crown; appears as a prosthesis applied on a decayed or damaged tooth. Among the public, it is also referred to as a crown coating. In addition, it is also called a porcelain tooth. Crowns are used for various reasons. Many people choose crown treatment due to fractures or decay that occur.
The crown completely wraps the damaged part of the tooth, causing the tooth to strengthen. Individuals who prefer the tooth to look good aesthetically can apply for crown treatment. Crowns can be made of ceramic or porcelain applied on metal.
Filling
Dental filling; is the filling of the tooth with various materials for teeth that have lost their chewing function, do not provide a pleasing appearance aesthetically, are cracked or decayed. In case of falling out and abrasion of a previously applied filling, it may be necessary to have a filling done again.
Before applying a dental filling, the dentist cleans and prepares the decayed tooth tissue. Then, the tooth is filled with filling material. The purpose of the filling is to prevent the decayed tooth from progressing further by closing the gaps.
Root Canal Treatment
Root canal treatment; is generally seen as a painful procedure. Many people tend to postpone the treatment process. However, through modern methods, root canals can be treated relatively painlessly and comfortably after one or two sessions. Contrary to general belief, individuals do not experience pain during root canal treatment. When pain is experienced, it can be stated that this pain is caused by the infection in the region.
The purpose of root canal treatment is to ensure the elimination of pains that disturb individuals. The treatment starts with the effective anesthesia of the tooth and surrounding tissues, and the session ends within an average of 45 minutes. Delaying the treatment process of individuals can lead to the formation of infection at the tooth root. This situation can bring along bone and tooth loss.
Tooth Extraction
Tooth extraction is one of the treatment methods that causes many people to develop a dentist and dental phobia. It is generally performed on teeth that cannot be recovered. Tooth extraction is applied to teeth that are shaking due to decay, advanced tissue loss, and gum disease. Tooth extraction is also performed in orthodontic treatments.
Impacted Tooth Extraction
Impacted teeth; are teeth that are normally expected to emerge in the mouth but could not erupt for various reasons, remaining under the gum or bone inside the jaws.
Wisdom teeth appear as the teeth that remain impacted most frequently. Canines, premolars, or extra teeth called 'supernumerary' may also remain impacted in the jaw.
There is no need to remove impacted teeth that are completely within the bone, cause no discomfort to the person, do not cause damage to neighboring teeth and tissues, and have sufficient space in the jaws to emerge in the mouth.
Wisdom Tooth Extraction
Many individuals have impacted wisdom teeth. However, there are many people who fear wisdom tooth extraction. Therefore, the number of those who do not go to the dentist or apply after some problems is very high. The procedure of removing impacted teeth is a fairly simple method. With modern health technologies and developing medical science, dentists aim to minimize the complications that may occur after the operation. Individuals can generally return to their normal lives after tooth extraction.
Tooth Fracture Treatment
Fractures occurring in teeth are traumatic injuries covering a major area in the mouth. Tooth fractures manifest themselves as small fractures or cracks from the outer surface. However, these fractures occurring in the appearance are sometimes not limited to a visibly noticeable crack and also affect the lower tissues of the tooth.
For tooth fracture treatment, treatment is planned according to the tissue occurring in tooth fractures. If the fracture occurring in the tooth does not extend very far towards the root side of the tooth, the broken piece is removed from there and the broken tissue is treated. If the fracture is observed up to the pulp, a treatment combined with root canal treatment is performed. The broken piece is treated with a crown coating. If the fracture has progressed down to the root part, the situation of tooth extraction may be faced. In such cases, a dentist must be consulted without wasting time.
