Conservative

Medicine and Engineering as the ingredients of success

Conservative dentistry is dedicated to the preservation of teeth with decay.

TheConservative dentistry is a branch of dentistry that focuses on prevention and treatment of dental injuries, with the primary objective of preserving as much as possible the natural structure of the tooth. This is a minimally invasive approach that aims to repair damaged teeth, avoiding extraction when possible.

Why is precise diagnosis important?

Therefore, a precise diagnosis, obtained by careful inspection of the teeth, previously freed from bacterial and tartar plaque, and the aid of endoral X-rays, is essential

Advantages of conservative dentistry:

  • Conservation of the natural tooth: The main advantage is the ability to keep the original tooth, avoiding the consequences of extraction, such as bone loss and displacement of other teeth.

  • Less invasive: The techniques used are less invasive than other dental procedures, reducing discomfort for the patient.

  • Aesthetic results: The materials used for reconstructions are highly aesthetic, ensuring a natural and harmonious result.

  • Prevention of future problems: By timely intervention on dental lesions, future complications such as the need for more invasive treatments or tooth loss are prevented.

How conservative dentistry works:

Once located, the tooth decay is removed painlessly, thanks to the modern techniques available to us.

  • The process begins with an accurate diagnosis of dental injury, which can be caused by decay, trauma or other pathologies. Once the cause and extent of the damage have been identified, the dentist proceeds with the removal of the damaged tissue.
  • Subsequently, the tooth is rebuilt with biocompatible materialsresistant, like composite resins. These materials are modeled and polished to restore the original shape and function of the tooth, ensuring an optimal aesthetic result.
  • In some cases, when the injury is deeper and involves the dental pulp, a endodontic treatment (devitalisation) before proceeding with reconstruction.
