RESTORATIVE DENTAL TREATMENT; It is a branch of dentistry that covers the treatment of shape, form and aesthetic properties of teeth that have lost their integrity or discolored due to caries, fractures, wear.
We call filling the process of cleaning the damaged tooth tissue and filling the remaining space with various materials.
Minor deformities, discolorations and existing split teeth in the anterior region may need to be filled in order to provide form and aesthetics.
Or, if the patient has mild cold-hot sensitivity that does not go with severe pain, small breaks, abrasions, and floss is inserted in the interface, the patient may need filling.
First of all, with an accurate and careful diagnosis and x-ray examination, the treatment to be done is decided by taking into account the age and expectation of the patient. Then the material to be used is decided.
While silver filling material is used in some cases in the back teeth, and in some cases the white colored composite filling material, which has gained popularity in recent years, is always used in the anterior teeth, which is always tooth-colored.
If there is an abnormal pain, a problem that does not go away after the filling, or if the color and form has deteriorated over time, the patients should be seen by the dentist again for control.
