The formation
of the disease
It is
very important that you brush your teeth regularly because the
leftovers stick to the surface of your teeth and this will be decayed
by bacteria that spread out in the mouth. During this process acids are
created that damage the adamantine or even the soft denting layer and
can also damage the inner parts of the teeth. This is the process of
caries that points at the beginning discolouring of the adamantine out.
In the initial stage only dental investigation can discover and confirm
this. In the later stage the patient can have dull toothache and can
possibly recognize a black hole. If the patient goes to the dentist in
time, the tooth can be saved with a simple filling. Otherwise this is
only possible with a root filling.
Tasks before
the treatment
Before
the intervention a thorough dental examination and an x-ray are
accomplished in any case. In addition the dentist clears the patient
over the planned interference, anaesthesia, possible side-effects up
and also about the used materials. It is important that the patient
eats something before the intervention, because after the local
anaesthesia you can not eat until the numbness is away (about 3-4
hours).
The simple
tooth extraction
The
intervention is accomplished under local anaesthesia. The dentist folds
the gingival from the tooth with the help of an imprint instrument and
removes the tooth with the pliers. If the tooth which must be pulled is
inflamed, the inflamed tissue found in the wound cavity, must be
removed as well. The dentist approximates the wound verges with
pressure to one another. After the intervention the patient has to bite
at a gauze swab for 15 minutes. If the wound doesn’t bleed
any longer the patient can go home.
Making of the
aesthetic fillings
The
intervention is accomplished under local anaesthesia (lidocain
injection). After the dentist has cleaned the carious parts of the
teeth with a dental drill, the teeth will be prepared with a support in
order to prevent the later on sensitivity. After that the dentist gives
a thin glue layer on the surface of the teeth and builds up layer by
layer the filling. He lightens the layer with an UV-bulb and to this
reaction the filling gets hard. The surface of the filling will be
created with a dental drill. At the end the surface will be polished.
Side-effects
after the filling
Cold-warmth
sensitivity can occur (maximum for 1-2 weeks) and also while biting a
sensitivity can appear (this can be corrected by the dentist). The
puncture of the injection can be as well sensitive for 1-2 days.
Coffee, tea, coke, cigarettes and other colouring foods can colour the
filling and the teeth.
