What is Fluoride Application?
Fluoride is an element that forms a chemical bond in the structure of the tooth and increases resistance to decay. It is based on the principle that by applying gel-like fluoride locally to the teeth, high concentrations of fluoride strengthen the structure of the enamel.
Fissure Sealant
It is a material that covers all of these recesses and cavities on the tooth surface. We call this phenomenon fissure sealant application. Fissure is a kind of dental graft. Because it is an extremely easy and painless procedure to prevent career formation.
amputation
Especially in cases of advanced carious cavities in children's primary teeth, instead of root canal treatment, the process of removing the pulp and caries tissue from the crown of the treated tooth and closing it with suitable therapeutic filling materials is called amputation.
It is a method used in children. Loss of primary teeth occurs for various reasons. An object called a retainer is placed around the empty tooth floor. This prevents the adjacent teeth from slipping into the gap.
