Tooth remineralization is the process of restoring mineral elements in tooth enamel to replenish their deficiency.
Tooth enamel contains phosphates and calcium, which can be destroyed under the influence of acids and bacteria in the oral cavity.
Remineralization occurs due to the restoration of enamel with special chemical compounds containing structural substances. This process allows us to strengthen enamel and prevent the development of caries.
In Odessa, this procedure is available to adults and children in the Dent House family dentistry clinic.
Remineralization is considered the best prevention of caries and solving the problem of increased sensitivity of the teeth, and our dentists use professional equipment and compositions to get the best results.
In what cases do you need remineralization of the teeth?
A diet rich in sugar and other substances that increase the acidity in the oral cavity leads to the active reproduction of bacteria and the destruction of enamel.
Normally, excess acids are neutralized by saliva, which has a several alkaline reaction. If this fragile balance is disturbed, the main mineral of enamel is destroyed.
use of fluorine during reminiralization strengthens the enamel, making it more resistant to destruction.This procedure will be relevant for patients with sensitive enamel, as well as for those who regularly make professional teeth whitening. It is remineralization that allows you to whiten the teeth in professional conditions as safe as possible.
In addition, remineralization will be an excellent prevention of caries, protecting hard -to -reach areas from dental plaque and bacteria.
Types of dental remineralization
The remineralization of enamel can be natural – in this case, the restoration of the enamel structure is achieved due to the correction of the nutrition and proper organization of the hygiene of the oral cavity. As a rule, this preventive measure reduces the risk of serious dental demineralization.
Artificial remineralization, in turn, is divided into several types:
- fluoride – a procedure using fluorine preparations to restore the enamel mineral balance;
- the use of electrophoresis for the delivery of minerals to the enamel structure;
- Using special cap.
The most popular and effective method is considered to be fluorine, although in the presence of indications a dentist can recommend another method.
What are the contraindications for this procedure?
Tooth remineralization can only be carried out with minor enamel defects. If the degree of damage is high, treatment becomes more complicated, so the prevention of dental demineralization plays an important role.
Among the contraindications to this procedure is an allergic reaction to one of the components of remineralizing composition, thyroid disease, as well as serious diseases of the urinary system. In all other cases, this procedure is carried out absolutely safe and with a persistent effect.
Professional dental remineralization in the Dent House clinic in Odessa
During the first appointment, the doctor assesses the state of the enamel of the teeth through a visual examination to determine the level of damage and the need for remineralization. In addition, the doctor determines the presence or absence of contraindications in order to ensure the safety of the procedure.
Before starting the remineralization procedure, the dentist of our clinic in Odessa cleanses the teeth of plaque and tooth stone using tools and ultrasonic cleaning. After that, a special remineralizing agent is applied to the surface of the teeth.Depending on the technique, light processing can be additionally carried out – this is necessary to accelerate the penetration of minerals into the enamel.
You can find out the approximate cost of such a procedure when recording for the primary consultation of the Dent-House clinic dentist in Odessa. The exact price for professional dental remineralization will be able to directly report the doctor after assessing the volume of work and the choice of suitable equipment.
