Restorative Dentistry in Chișinău: Tooth Treatment at Cristi Dent

Restorative dentistry covers the diagnosis, treatment and rebuilding of teeth affected by cavities, pulpitis (inflammation of the nerve), root canal infection and other diseases of the hard tissues and pulp.
‍Conservative dentistry helps you keep your own teeth, remove the source of inflammation and restore the shape and function of the tooth.
We assess the condition of the tooth, determine how deep the damage goes and choose the scope of treatment needed, from a small filling to root canal therapy and a final restoration.

What is restorative dentistry

Restorative dentistry is the branch of dentistry that preserves and treats your own teeth without surgical removal. This is also what conservative dentistry means in practice.
The main tasks of the dentist are to find the disease, remove the damaged tissue, stop the inflammation and rebuild the structure of the tooth.
Restorative dentistry includes treatment of cavities, pulpitis and root canals, root canal retreatment, and aesthetic restoration of damaged teeth.

Stages of cavity treatment

1

Diagnosis and X-ray

We check how deep the damage goes and look for hidden decay between the teeth. If needed, we take a periapical X-ray.

2

Removing the damaged tissue under magnification

We carefully remove only the decayed areas. We work under magnification to save as much healthy tissue as possible.

3

Rebuilding the tooth in layers with composite

We restore the anatomical shape of the tooth layer by layer. The colour and translucency are matched to your tooth.

4

Polishing and bite check

We polish the surface until it is smooth and naturally glossy, and adjust the bite. The tooth looks natural and does not get in the way when you chew.

Why cavity treatment should not be put off

  • A cavity deepens quickly. The damage reaches the deep layers and the tooth becomes weaker.
  • Severe pain and pulpitis appear. The nerve becomes inflamed and the canals have to be treated, which costs more and takes longer.
  • The walls of the tooth break down. The tooth crumbles, cracks appear and the filling stops holding.
  • The cost of treatment rises. Instead of a standard filling, you need root canal treatment and a crown.
  • The risk of swelling and infection grows. The infection can spread to the gums or cheek, or cause an abscess.

Restorative dentistry questions

Does dental treatment hurt?

No. Treatment is done with modern anaesthesia chosen individually for you. Most patients feel no pain during the procedure.

Why might a tooth hurt after cavity treatment?

Slight sensitivity after treatment is possible, and it is the reaction of the tooth tissue to the procedure. The discomfort usually passes within a few days. If the pain gets worse or does not go away, see your doctor.

How long does cavity treatment take?

In most cases treatment takes one visit and lasts from 30 to 90 minutes, depending on how deep the cavity is and how much work is needed.

How long does a filling last?

A filling usually lasts for many years. The period depends on the material, your bite and your oral hygiene. We give an official warranty on fillings.
