Cavities, or tooth decay, are one of the most common dental concerns affecting patients of all ages. At Havana Street Dental Office, we provide expert cavity treatment to restore damaged teeth and prevent further decay. Cavities form when plaque and bacteria erode the tooth enamel, leading to tiny openings or holes. If left untreated, cavities can progress, causing pain, sensitivity, and potential infections. Our skilled team uses advanced diagnostic techniques to identify cavities early and offers effective solutions, including fillings, to protect your teeth and maintain a healthy smile.
The treatment for cavities depends on the severity of the decay. For minor cavities, we use tooth-colored fillings made from durable composite resin to seamlessly restore the affected area while preserving the tooth’s natural appearance. In cases of deeper decay, we may recommend dental crowns to strengthen the tooth structure. Our approach focuses on providing comfortable and precise treatments, ensuring that patients experience minimal discomfort while achieving long-lasting results. At Havana Street Dental Office, we prioritize patient education, offering guidance on proper oral hygiene to prevent future cavities and maintain optimal dental health.
Preventing cavities starts with consistent oral care and regular dental visits. Brushing and flossing daily, along with professional cleanings, can significantly reduce the risk of decay. Our team provides personalized preventive care plans, including fluoride treatments and dental sealants for added protection against cavities. By taking a proactive approach to oral health, we help patients enjoy strong, cavity-free smiles for years to come.
