It just so happens that most patients turn to the dentist at the stage when the dental filling is a prerequisite for their conservation. And because many people know that you need to carry out the routine inspection at least once every six months, but neglect their health. Therefore, the dental disease still ranks first in prevalence. Among them, there are several pathologies that develop most often.

Common dental disease
Caries – ranked first, it affects both children and adults. The more advanced forms of the disease, the greater tooth loss, and more pain.
Pulpitis – inflammation of the tooth, is a result of the running of tooth decay or injury. Initially seen occasional bouts of pain, which intensified and more frequent over time.
Periodontal disease – a serious disease of the gums and bone that requires long-term treatment. High probability of tooth loss. Most often affects the root teeth.
In all these diseases dental filling is a key step in the treatment.
Seal tooth – which is produced from
The choice of filling material involves an individual approach. If the seals are placed on the teeth root, they should have a good safety margin to withstand masticatory stress. On the aesthetics front teeth is important.
For each specific case are utilized specific materials, so they are classified as intended. Allocate such procedures:
- installing temporary fillings and dressings;
- the creation of permanent fillings;
- filling root canals;
- production of insulating gaskets.
Now consider the most popular materials, without which it is impossible today fillings.
phosphate cements
The powdered material comprising oxides of zinc, aluminum, silicon, and magnesium. Best available as low-cost components are used. The disadvantages include the fast and low abrasion resistance. In addition, the inherent low toxicity to them.
glass ionomers
In comparison with the phosphate, have higher strength and better fixation, not toxic. Is used when it is necessary for prosthesis fillings and the manufacture of gaskets.
Composite materials
Consist of polymer resins, are divided into:
- acrylic – solid, but the toxicity, therefore, require periodic monitoring;
- Epoxy – less toxic, but darkens over time.
A significant disadvantage is the rapid solidification of the solution, making dental filling time-limited.
Svetopolimery
They have the ability to harden only under the rays of a special lamp, which greatly facilitates the work of the dentist. Tooth filling allows you to choose the right shade seals, it will not be different from natural teeth, whether it is the root or front teeth.
Filling of root canals
The materials used in this procedure, there are a number of requirements. They should have high insulating properties, hypoallergenic and permeability to X-rays. These characteristics are peculiar to gutta-percha, titanium and silver pins and glass ionomer polymer sealers (cement).
Tooth filling, the steps of
There are many methods by which to set the seal teeth, but they include:
- purification cavity;
- removing the pulp;
- cleaning channels;
- root canal filling.
These are just the basic steps, each of which may include different procedures depending on the specific situation. For example, if the sealed root teeth manipulations differ significantly from those on the incisors.
The cost of services for sealing
Price seals the installation consists of the volume of work performed and materials expended. Our specialists use modern equipment and only certified filling materials. Therefore, the clinic provides a guarantee for fillings, because we are confident in the quality of work.
