Wisdom teeth – to yank or not to yank?

Julija Skurjate2025-06-11T10:45:05+03:00

Wisdom teeth often become a problem because they often do not have room to grow properly. If they are not removed in time, the following can occur: 📌 Pain and inflammation - partially erupted teeth often cause inflammation of the gums. 📌Dental strabismus and bite problems - wisdom teeth can press on the other teeth, causing changes in tooth alignment. 📌Caries and infection risk - difficult access makes cleaning more difficult, increasing the chance of holes and infections. 📌Cysts and other complications - unhatched wisdom teeth can form cysts that damage the bone tissue. ☝ It is therefore very important

HOW AND WHY DO WE TREAT MILK TEETH?

Julija Skurjate2025-05-16T13:27:20+03:00

There is a myth that milk teeth do not hurt and do not need to be treated. This is not true. 👉 Milk teeth have a very similar structure to permanent teeth. They have a crown, roots and a tooth nerve inside. Milk teeth can easily develop tooth decay and if not detected early, tooth decay can affect the tooth nerve. Another myth is that a child has genetically bad teeth like one of his relatives. This is also not true. 👉 Even if someone in the family has had several dental problems, with good hygiene and regular check-ups, tooth

COATING TEETH WITH TEFENFLUORIDE

Julija Skurjate2025-05-16T13:25:28+03:00

We have noticed that patients still have quite little information about what tefenfluoride is and why coating their teeth with tefenfluoride may be necessary. Tefenfluoride is a solution that allows for quite active and predictable fluoridation - the mineralisation of the tooth with fluoride. Coating teeth with tefenfluoride allows invisible micro-cracks in the tooth enamel to be closed and teeth to be protected from possible damage.👄🙌 ☝Coating teeth with Tefenfluoride is recommended in the following cases: Prevention and treatment of enamel caries - also in cases where caries has already started to develop but is still in the stain stage.

Restoration of lateral teeth

Julija Skurjate2025-05-16T13:32:53+03:00

Patients often don't think of lateral tooth restoration right away. This is because side teeth are not seen by others in everyday life - when smiling or talking. However, very often it is the lack of lateral teeth that can lead to malocclusion complications. ☝ The first thing patients usually notice is that the incisors start to wear or enamel fractures appear. Most often, patients with such complaints come with the desire to have restorations to restore the aesthetics of their incisors. However, very often, during the examination, one or more lateral teeth are found to be missing. It is

Why should I have an X-ray?

Julija Skurjate2025-05-16T13:31:36+03:00

❓ Patients sometimes ask why do they need an X-ray? X-rays are taken to detect caries or holes, inflammation, root anatomy and to assess the quality of root canal treatment. As a result of the X-ray, the doctor is better able to diagnose the problem and predict the possible course/complexity of further treatment. During root canal treatment or endodontics, several X-rays are usually taken, as this is the only way for the doctor to ascertain the quality of the treatment carried out. Therefore, patients should not be concerned if several X-rays are taken on the same tooth. ❓ Are dental

Some facts about external teeth whitening from Dr. Matashov

Administrator2025-05-16T11:52:42+03:00

Teeth whitening is a gentler and less invasive method compared to other restorations (fillings, veneers, crowns, etc.). Perforating tooth sensitivity may occur during the procedure. Sealed teeth are more likely to develop sensitivity during professional whitening than intact teeth. Home whitening with graves is associated with lower tooth sensitivity. Activation of the UV light of the whitening gel does not improve the result. After high-concentration whitening procedures, the enamel temporarily becomes softer, so do not brush your teeth immediately after whitening procedures. It should be remembered that professional bleaching does not fade existing old and repainted restorations (seals, crowns).
