Conservative dentistry


Conservative dentistry is the primary branch of dental medicine. It is concerned with the general health of the oral cavity and teeth, and maintaining them healthy and functioning as long as possible.



Conservative dentistry includes:

  • plaque and tartar removal
  • endodontic procedures (caries treatment)
  • restorative fillings

Natural teeth are the best teeth! That is why it is important to go for regular dental check-ups, have regular cleanings and maintain good oral hygiene.



Dental caries is the most common disease in the world. It is believed that as many as 92% of adults have cavities in the mouth. Caries causing bacteria, Streptococcus mutans, attacks and destroys tooth enamel, dentin and dental nerve (pulp).

After we consume food and drinks, carbohydrates remain in the oral cavity. They bind to plaque and other deposits(bacteria), their decomposition produces acids that lower the pH value under  5.5, which in turn causes enamel demineralization and the penetration and progression of bacteria into deeper structures of the teeth.

Caries is a disease that typically progresses slowly, and if caught on time can be easily treated by removing the caries lesion and placing a filling. If the decay is not treated, it progresses through the enamel into the dentine and eventually reaches the pulp (nerve) causing nerve tissue to die.  If we allow caries to progress to that point, it very often it leads to serious damage, causing eventual tooth loss.

During your regular check-ups, a dentist usually notices dental caries which can at that point often be treated easily. The dentist first removes the infected dental tissue and, depending on the degree of damage, can restore the damage caused by caries in many ways.



Ways to restore teeth damaged by caries:

  • Dental Filling- when damage to the tooth is smaller
  • Dental Crowns- when damage is more severe and a large part of the tooth crown needs to be restored
  • Endodontic treatment – when a caries infection had caused irreversible damage to the nerve.

    EXPERIENCE




    All my thanks to DCM

    Friendly, professional, and the best team of doctors and assistants. After changing many doctors, finally met someone who knows what he is doing. Nothing is impossible for them, they literally put back smiles on many faces. Many thanks and I recommend them to everyone!

    I whole heartedly recommend

    After so many disappointments, so many unprofessional dentists, and high prices, I finally I found a great dentist.  A month before my wedding I decided to get veneers, I had a diastema. Everything was done at exactly on time, I am thrilled, my teeth look very natural and the prices are quite lower than at other private dentists. I could not believe that a dental practice could  have such a pleasant atmosphere, and do their job exceptionally well. Even though they’re not located near where I live, I will only go to DCM from now on. It’s worth it! I whole heartedly recommend them, really!
