Cavities can’t wait… and neither can you!
Have you noticed tooth sensitivity, pain when you eat sweet foods, or a suspicious little hole? It’s highly likely that a cavity is setting in.
The good news is that the earlier it is diagnosed, the simpler and quicker the treatment… and the more painless.
Our Montreux dental practice welcomes you promptly for a precise diagnosis and gentle treatment. Here, we take the time to listen to you and treat your cavities with precision, without stress.
How can you tell if you have a cavity?
Not all cavities hurt. Some progress quietly… until they reach the dentin, or even the nerve. Here are the warning signs:
- Sensitivity to heat or cold
- Sugar or chewing pain
- Persistent bad breath
- Visible dark spot on a tooth
- Transient but regular aches and pains
If you have the slightest doubt, the safest thing to do is to consult a dental hygienist. A quick check-up is often enough to detect incipient decay and stop it before it does any damage.
Precise, gentle care
The treatment of a cavity depends on its depth, but always follows a simple logic: remove the infected tissue, preserve the tooth as much as possible and rebuild it.
With us, every treatment is carried out with the utmost care:
- Local anesthesia for total comfort
- Tooth cleaning to remove decay
- Reconstruction with esthetic material (tooth-colored composite)
- Bite control for perfect results
Everything is done to ensure that you leave with a clear mind… and a healthy smile.
Why never wait with a cavity?
Untreated decay never goes away. It gets progressively worse, until it reaches the nerve and requires root canal treatment or even tooth extraction.
Caring for cavities in good time means avoiding :
- Acute pain
- Deep-seated infections
- Heavier treatments
- Higher costs
