Frequently Asked Questions
How can cavities be prevented?
Regular and proper oral hygiene is essential for preventing cavities. It is recommended to brush your teeth at least twice a day with fluoride toothpaste, use dental floss or interdental brushes daily, and reduce the intake of sugary and acidic foods. Regular dental check-ups and professional cleanings are also important.
What are the symptoms of dental nerve inflammation?
Inflammation of the dental nerve is most commonly manifested by severe, throbbing pain that can be constant or triggered by thermal stimuli such as hot, cold or sweet foods and drinks. Gum swelling, redness, bad breath and difficulty chewing or a feeling of pressure in the tooth may also occur.
How long does a composite filling last and when should it be replaced?
Composite fillings usually last between five and ten years, depending on chewing load and oral hygiene. Replacement is necessary if wear, damage or discoloration appears, which may indicate the development of new decay beneath the filling. Regular check-ups help detect the need for replacement in time.
How can bad breath be treated?
Bad breath can most often be controlled with proper oral hygiene. This includes regular brushing, tongue cleaning, use of antibacterial mouthwashes and maintaining healthy gums. It is also recommended to visit the dentist to determine the underlying cause if the problem persists.
