Treatment of caries in Grodno

Why is it worth treating caries in Grodno at VOKA?

We understand that even the thought of a drill causes stress for many patients. Therefore, our approach is based on three principles: painlessness, time saving and transparent cost.

• · Painless. We use the latest generation of articaine anesthetics. The injection is performed with microneedles, and in case of increased sensitivity of the gums, we offer sedation or topical anesthesia. You will not feel any pain or discomfort.
• · Exactly. In our work we use a microscope and a visiograph. Magnification allows the doctor to clean even the most difficult to reach areas without damaging healthy tooth tissue. This eliminates the risk of relapse under the filling.
• · Aesthetically pleasing. We do not install “gray” fillings. We use photopolymer materials (light composites) from the world's leading brands, which are precisely matched to the natural shade of your enamel.

Stages of caries treatment

In our clinic in Grodno, the treatment process is strictly regulated and takes, depending on the complexity, from 20 to 60 minutes.

• 1. Diagnostics. The doctor conducts an examination and, if necessary, takes a targeted photograph (radiovisiography) to accurately determine the depth of the lesion.
• 2. Anesthesia. After the treated area has completely frozen, we begin work.
• 3. Preparation. The dentist removes tissues affected by caries and sterilizes the cavity with antiseptic solutions.
• 4. Restoration. The anatomical shape of the tooth is restored layer by layer. Each layer of the composite is illuminated with a curing lamp for maximum strength.
• 5. Finishing processing. Grinding and polishing the filling so that it does not injure the gums and buccal mucosa, and also does not accumulate plaque.

Types of caries that we treat

Our specialists cope with any clinical cases:

• · Superficial caries (white/dark spot stage). Treatment using ICON technology (infiltration) without drill preparation is possible.
• · Medium and deep caries. Classic treatment with installation of an aesthetic filling.
• · Secondary caries. Replacement of old low-quality fillings and elimination of infection.
• · Root caries. A complex case that requires a special approach and isolation from gingival fluid (cofferdam).

Frequently asked questions (FAQ)

Is it painful to treat teeth in your clinic?

No. We pay special attention to anesthesia. If you are scared, you can request treatment under sedation (medicated sleep).

How long will the filling last?

Subject to oral hygiene and timely professional cleanings, fillings made from modern composites last from 5 to 10 years or more.

Can caries be treated during pregnancy?

Yes. We use safe anesthetics that do not penetrate the placental barrier. The second trimester is the optimal time for planned treatment.
