ODONTOLOGY

Dreaming of a beautiful smile? Or maybe you have a toothache and are looking for help? Do you or your loved ones need dental treatment, professional oral hygiene or teeth whitening? We invite you to contact the dentists of UAB Žaliakalnis polyclinic and together we will find the best treatment solution for you.

Remember, healthy and beautiful teeth are not just about an attractive smile, but also about a healthy body.

At the first visit, we draw up a treatment plan:

  • Assessing the overall state of oral hygiene;
  • We discuss with the patient their expectations and wishes, and tell them about possible treatment options.
  • The general condition of the teeth is assessed;
  • Assessing existing seals and their condition;
  • Determine the type of bite;
  • We check the condition of the soft tissues in the oral cavity;
  • If necessary, we refer you for specialist advice.

Dental caries is one of the most common diseases. Acids in dental plaque affect the hard tissues of the tooth, causing them to decay and gradually form tooth decay.

IMPORTANT! A dental check-up is required:

  • Tooth sensitivity to cold, heat and sweetness;
  • If you notice a "hole" in your tooth, and if you notice darkening.

These sensations can be caused by dental caries. Tooth damage is easily treatable before the nerve of the tooth is reached.

Therapeutic treatment includes:

  • Treatment of dental caries ("holes"), filling in one or several visits;
  • Polishing of old seals;
  • Replacement of defective seals;
  • Restoring chipped teeth;
  • Treatment of tooth root sensitivity;
  • Children's dental treatment.

DON'T FORGET! Fillings are not forever. They wear, chip, fracture, develop micro-cracks and accumulate bacteria that can lead to secondary caries. It is therefore necessary to seek preventive care at least 1-2 times a year, even if there are no complaints. This is preferably done after professional oral hygiene.
