Prevention procedures
Tooth sealing
CSealing means filling up of tooth grooves with special substances - this is the most effective way of protecting those spots that are most exposed to decay. First of all, we seal the first permanent molars (their chewing surfaces), preferably up to 4 months upon cutting because these are the teeth that are the first and most frequent to suffer from decay. They are also the most frequently extracted ones; remember they cut in the 6th year of age. Additionally, we seal chewing surfaces of all other permanent molars and, if required, premolars.
Tooth varnishing
This means protecting and strengthening of the entire surface of teeth with concentrated fluoride varnish which, after being absorbed, makes teeth more resistant to decay. This procedure must be performed every 3 months on milk teeth and every 6 months on permanent ones.
Impregnation
We use this procedure on patients with extensive, multi-surface caries of milk teeth, most often incisors, when the disease develops very early and traditional treatment methods are not possible. The procedure is to stop further development of the disease, which is of significant importance for the health of the permanent teeth.
Individual fluoridation
This procedure uses fluoride concentrates which increase teeth's resistance to caries.
