Prevention of Caries

Caries Treatment

Sealing

Sealing is covering tooth fissure and hollows with pit and fissure sealant. Tooth fissure and hollows, beacause of their difficult structure are those places which are not easy to clean. This may result in early decay.

The sealing procedure should be done as soon as possible after cutting the first teeth. The sixth teeth (first permanent molar teeth) are the most exposed to caries. They come out at the age of 6 - that is why it is so important to seal them then. Teeth protected in this way are checked every 6 months

Peridontosis Prophylaxis

Scaling

Scaling is the first treatment in the prevention of a periodontal disease. It removes all of the irritants from the crown and root surface to eliminate inflammation and infection. It is carried out as a supragingival or subgingival procedure depending on the
location of the deposit. The objective of supragingival scaling is to clean the clinical crown from calculus. It may be done with ultrasonic instruments which produce vibrations. Finally, surfaces are polished with pumice to leave the surface smooth.
