Patient Guide

Regular visits to the dentist are the key to a healthy smile, and prevention is the best way to avoid serious dental problems!
It is recommended to have dental check-ups at least once every 6 months. This allows you to detect cavities, gum disease and other oral problems early. If the patient is prone to inflammation, tooth sensitivity or wears braces, the doctor may recommend more frequent visits – e.g. every 3-4 months.
It is also necessary to remember about regular tartar removal and hygiene – ideally every 6-12 months to prevent gum disease and bad breath.

To properly take care of your oral hygiene, you should brush your teeth regularly – preferably twice a day for at least 2 minutes. Additionally, it is worth remembering about preventive dental check-ups every six months.

It is worth remembering the following rules:

• The toothbrush must be gentle on the enamel, regardless of the type: manual with soft bristles, sonic or electric.
• The toothpaste should contain fluoride, which strengthens the enamel and protects against caries.
• It is worth using an irrigator or dental floss, thanks to which we will remove food remains even from the smallest interdental spaces.
• You should clean your tongue, on which bacteria and plaque accumulate, preferably with the help of specialist tongue brushes.
• After brushing your teeth in the evening, you should not consume anything except clean water, so as not to expose them to bacteria overnight.

Tooth extraction is a last resort that a dentist takes when other treatment methods are ineffective. There are several situations in which tooth extraction may be necessary, including: advanced caries, periodontal disease, impacted wisdom teeth, injuries, the appearance of an abscess that is ineffective when treated, and the infection threatens general health. Tooth extraction is a decision that a dentist makes after a thorough examination, taking into account all treatment options. However, it is worth trying to prevent such a situation by regular check-ups and taking care of oral hygiene.

Root canal treatment (also known as endodontic treatment) is a dental procedure that aims to remove infection from the inside of a tooth and its roots, and to prevent further infection. It is the standard treatment for teeth that have been severely damaged by decay or trauma and where the pulp (the inner tissue of the tooth) has become inflamed or infected. Root canal treatment is necessary when the tooth’s pulp (inner tissue) has become infected with decay or infection, especially an abscess, which can spread to other parts of the body.

Root canal treatment under a microscope, or microscopic endodontic treatment, is a modern method that has many advantages over traditional root canal treatment. It allows dentists to perform procedures with exceptional precision, which significantly improves the effectiveness of treatment, reduces the risk of complications and increases the chances of saving the tooth. This is especially beneficial in difficult cases, where traditional methods may not be effective enough.
