What are dental treatments?
Basically, a dental treatment is a set of techniques applied by a dental professional, whose main objective is to preserve the good health of your mouth.
It is possible to limit the scope of these treatments according to their purpose, since some are only aesthetic and others help to keep teeth and gums in good condition.
Types of dental treatments offered by Dr. Trejos
From the diagnosis of any dental pathology, the selection of treatment must be made assertively by dental professionals.
In this sense, Dr. Trejos offers his experience in the application of a diversity of dental treatments, adapted to each need.
Exodontics
Although it is based on the classical technique to extract a dental piece from the oral cavity; Today it is applied in a controlled manner and seeking the least possible trauma for the patient.
Unquestionably, it is the last resort that is used when it is not possible to recover a damaged tooth or it is required for the application of orthodontic treatments with better results.
Endodontics
Before considering a dental extraction due to an infection in the pulp of the tooth (product of cavities or some trauma), it is necessary to apply a root canal, dental devitalization or root canal treatment.
This treatment consists of extracting the pulp from the tooth and cleaning the canal, which must be filled to restore the dental piece and ensure that the tooth remains in place for much longer.
dental splint
The Michigan splint is a piece made of plastic, anatomically designed from the upper and lower dental arch.
In particular, it is used to prevent tooth wear when suffering from bruxism; a disease that can cause severe dental wear as a result of the pressure exerted on the teeth and their involuntary sliding.
clear aligners
At present, orthodontics has surpassed the most classic standards to meet the challenges posed by the aesthetics of the smile.
Consequently, transparent aligners appear as an innovative solution that allows correcting bite and dental alignment problems in a much more discreet way, without losing its effectiveness.
Dental prostheses
Dental prosthetics offer a quick and low-cost solution when a dental restoration is necessary.
It is a highly demanded dental treatment among the elderly or those who have suffered significant losses due to trauma or degenerative diseases.
Periodontics
Periodontal treatment helps to recover diseased, bleeding and inflamed gums; caused by diseases such as gingivitis and periodontitis.
Types of aesthetic dental treatments
On the other hand, dental treatments for aesthetic purposes are currently in high demand; and for this, we present the most requested in our consultation.
Teeth whitening
This dental treatment consists of changing the tone or clarifying the dental pieces, to achieve a more resplendent and rejuvenating effect on the smile.
There are two types of teeth whitening:
- Professional whitening, which is performed in an office using UV lamps that allow effective results to be obtained in just 45 minutes.
- Dental whitening by splint, which consists of carrying out a previous review to take the measurements of the patient's dental arches, and manufacturing custom-made splints.
Dental veneers
Treatment with dental veneers is used to improve the appearance of stained, fractured or irregular teeth.
These are thin layers of porcelain, zirconium or composite made to measure, which are adhered to each dental piece with a special resin; producing an elegant, uniform and unbeatable visual effect.
Dental implants
When it becomes necessary to replace a permanent dental piece, dental implants are the most effective and long-lasting method to cover a need from a functional and aesthetic point of view.
In these cases, a bolt is fixed to replace the missing tooth, which is covered with a crown to best simulate the natural tooth.
