Dental Diseases

When is a restorative dentistry necessary?

Dental Diseases  A dental disease is an impairment of the hard tooth substance (tooth enamel, dentine (dentin obsolete), root cement) or the tooth support system (periodontium).

Dental diseases are not only an aesthetic problem, in most cases, they also lead to severe toothache and tooth damage. An increasing number of studies show that dental diseases also have an impact on the overall well-being of our body that should not be underestimated. For this reason too, tooth preservation is an important componenet of dentistry.

How do dental diseases affect overall health?

Effects of dental diseases on our health:

  • Caries is associated with digestive problems, diabetes, cardiovascular diseases
  • Periodontitis is a trigger of cardiovascular diseases, increased risk of stroke, diabetes, premature birth and miscarriage, respiratory diseases, rheumatism, diabetes, lung diseases
  • Functional diseases such as headache and facial pain, migraines, tinnitus
  • Tolerance of dental materials and general allergies

How does our well-being affect our teeth?

Diseases can not only be the result of a dental problem, on the contrary, they might be causing it. For example, many diabetics suffer from gingivitis. Tell your CASA DENTALIS dentist if you have pre-existing conditions, as this is the only way we can offer  your teeth the optimal, individual care needed. We will take necessary measures to preserve your teeth.

Possibilites  of tooth preservation

What does your dental practice Berlin, CASA DENTALIS, offer for tooth preservation?

At CASA DENTALIS, your dentist in Berlin, we offer you a wide range of dental services for tooth preservation. These include:

  • Endodontie
  • Endodontics
  • Periodontology
  • Amalgam rejection
  • Restorative dentistry (e.g. dental fillings)
  • prophylaxis

Amalgam rejection

For a long time, amalgam was the most popular material for tooth preservation and is still  the best-studied filling material known in dentistry. The aesthetics of this filling material are to be regarded as a disadvantage, which is why many patients wish to have the filling replaced by tooth-colored materials.

At our CASA DENTALIS dental practice in Berlin Lichterfelde, we make this wish come true. The amalgam drainage consists of removing the material under a protective rubber (rubber dam) and then treating the affected area depending on the size using tooth-colored composite fillings or inlays / onlays.

 

Fillings

What are dental fillings?

If teeth are damaged, for example due to cavities, the holes must be closed in order to protect the tooth and the underlying nerve. For small defects, tooth fillings are used at CASA DENTALIS.

Tooth fillings are soft filling materials that are placed onto your tooth by your dentist from Berlin and are hardened later. If it is a major defect, high-quality inlays (German inlay filling) or onlays (German cupola filling) from our Berlin dental laboratory are used. In order to prevent the further deterioration of the tooth defect, it is important to have it treated by the dentists you trust as early as possible.

What types of tooth filling are used at CASA DENTALIS?

At CASA DENTALIS we use the following fillings:

  • Composite fillings
  • Ceramics / inlays / onlays / overlays
  • Gold inlays

The type of your filling depends on the condition of your  teeth, the size of the hole, existing allergies, but also on financial aspects. Our dentists at CASA DENTALIS will be happy to find a solution together with you that will result in your long-term comfort.

What does tooth filling look like?

Tooth fillings are carried out regularly by your dentist at the dental practices CASA DENTALIS. This means, our patients benefit from the extensive experiences of our doctors.


Tooth filling is carried out at CASA DENTALIS as follows:

  1. Thoroughly clean the affected area
  2. Affected tooth site is removed with the dental drill
  3. Tooth area is disinfected
  4. Filling

Endodontics

What does endodontics mean?

Endodontics is root canal treatment for tooth preservation. This is used when the nerve of a tooth (pulp) is inflamed or dead. With the latest technology, our dentists in Berlin at CASA DENTALIS are able to save even severely damaged or dead teeth.

How does root infection develop?

Pulp disease can have many causes; such as an infection in the tooth pockets, root cracks or a caries infections. As part of the root canal treatment, the inflamed tissue is removed by your dentist and the root canal is then filled. It is a complex and lengthy treatment, but showcases extremely high chances of success.

How does a root canal treatment work?

  1. At the beginning, your dentist from Berlin will take digital X-rays to measure the root canal in order to guarantee an optimal cleaning later.
  2. Then a cofferdam (arch-shaped clamp with a rubber band) is placed to protect the tooth from the influx of bacteria which can settle through saliva as well as to prevent swallowing  the disinfectants.
  3. To gain access to the root canal, the tooth is drilled out and the infected tissue is removed.
  4. The root canal then goes through an antibacterial cleansing.
  5. Depending on the severity of the condition, a root canal treatment may extended to several appointments. If this is the case, your dentist will close the root canal with a temporary filling.
  6. In the final session, your dentist will fill the root canal  with a special root filling material and uses a crown or filling to restore the tooth.

After several months, the success of the treatment can be checked using x-rays. With the help of a microscope, your dentists at CASA DENTALIS are able to detect the tiniest root canals and, thus, remove the entire tissue in pain to enable a successful root canal treatment.

Upon request, of course, all procedures can also be carried out at all CASA DENTALIS dental practices in Berlin under anesthesia or, if necessary, general anesthesia.
