Treatment of complicated caries in children in Kharkiv
Complicated caries in children is a condition that requires timely and delicate treatment. At the FamiDent clinic in Kharkiv, we help children get rid of pain, inflammation, and preserve their baby teeth until they naturally erupt. The approach is always individual: we take into account the child’s age, level of damage, and emotional state.
Our main goal is not only to cure the tooth, but also to make the process as comfortable and fearless as possible. Modern techniques allow us to effectively treat pulpitis and periodontitis without stress for the child, using safe anesthesia.
Timely treatment of complicated caries helps to avoid complications, maintain a healthy bite, and ensure the proper development of permanent teeth in the future.
Methods of treating complicated caries in children
Depending on the degree of inflammation and the condition of the tooth, the pediatric dentist selects the most effective treatment method. All procedures are aimed at saving the tooth and eliminating the infection.
- Biological method - used in the early stages, allows you to preserve the viability of the nerve and stimulate tissue regeneration.
- Vital amputation (pulpotomy) - only the affected part of the nerve in the crown of the tooth is removed, the root part is preserved.
- Vital extirpation (pulpectomy) is the complete removal of the inflamed pulp followed by filling of the root canals.
After treatment, the tooth is restored with a filling or crown to ensure its functionality and durability.
Pain relief, comfort and tooth restoration
Treatment of complicated caries in children is always carried out using modern methods of anesthesia so that the child does not feel fear and pain.
After treatment, the tooth needs high-quality restoration, as it becomes more fragile. For this, modern materials and children's crowns are used, which restore the shape and function of the tooth.
- metal crowns for durable restoration of chewing teeth;
- aesthetic (zirconium or composite) crowns for front teeth;
- filling materials to restore the anatomical shape of the tooth.
Timely treatment helps to avoid complications such as flux, infections, malocclusions and problems with the development of permanent teeth. Regular check-ups help to detect the problem at an early stage and maintain a healthy smile for the child.
