Treatment for a cavity : Resin (composite filling)

 

What is resin treatment?

 

 

Resin treatment is a method of filling small sides such as mild initial cavities with ingredients that have the most similar properties to natural teeth.

 

 In addition to tooth decay, it is also used as aesthetic treatment, such as recovering broken teeth or open teeth. When used in a large area, the resin is likely to fall out break due to chewing force. It is usually used as a type of high-strength material that is applied on a small side to repair some of the damaged parts. It is a color similar to the color of the tooth, and has the excellent adhesion of the material.

Lack of management or prolonged time can lead to discoloration or elimination. You can fully recover your tooth function through treatments as ceramics, zirconia crowns, and laminates that can be supplemented!

 

 

Precautions for resin treatment.

 

 It is important to carry out through management after resin treatment to ensure that the resin does no fall off and can be used for a long time. You should refrain from using the filled area for 24 hours after treatment, and foods with pigments such as coke, coffee, and cares are at risk of coloring, so it is important to pay special attention if the area is your front teeth. In the future, avoid hard or sticky foods as much as possible.

 

 

 In addition, if a crack occurs in the resin without falling, foreign substances may penetrate through the gap, resulting in cavities. Since it is difficult to visually check and there are no symptoms in the early stages, you should regularly visit Gangnam Dental Clinic to prevent these problem in advance through close examination and scaling treatment.
