Teeth can be destroyed for many reasons. Most often it is caries and its complications - pulpitis and periodontitis. Often, the tooth is destroyed due to poor-quality treatment, or by the negligence of the patient who waved his hand for prolonged treatment, and a doctor who tries to save the tooth in every way and keep the chewing function. And only after a while the patient returns to the dentist, but already with a question it is possible to restore the destroyed tooth?
How to restore a destroyed tooth?
Stomatology steps forward by leaps and bounds and in our time the restoration of incompletely destroyed teeth is carried out in most cases. In the beginning it is necessary to carry out treatment, because the destroyed tooth is the source of infection and if you do not remove the affected tissue, the process of destruction will not stop. To do this, the doctor completely treats the channels under the X-ray control, only then passes to restoration or prosthetics.
In the first case, the crown of the tooth is restored using photopolymer materials, roughly speaking, the doctor molds a large and beautiful seal , in color exactly matching the tissues of the tooth. If the tooth is too destroyed, a pin is inserted into the treated channels of the tooth, and a crown is made from above. Modern crowns are made of cermet and fully ceramic materials, which provides strength and high aesthetic qualities.
Removal of the destroyed tooth
The teeth that are not subject to treatment and restoration are removed. It is justified to remove the destroyed wisdom tooth in any condition, because these teeth are very difficult to treat because of the location in the mouth. After removal, the doctor can perform implant placement with subsequent crown replacement or offer simpler and cheaper ways of repairing the dentition defects.
