What is dental caries treatment

Composite filling with rubber dam

We treat dental caries using modern white composite fillings. This type of filling is technique-sensitive – to ensure the dry field necessary for proper bonding to the tooth, we always work with a rubber dam in place.

A rubber dam provides adequate isolation of the tooth and also offers greater comfort and safety for the patient.

White composite filling
Aesthetic, metal-free alternative to amalgam, colour-matched to the natural tooth.
Treatment with rubber dam
The rubber dam provides a dry field – the foundation for a high-quality, durable filling.
Fully anatomical restoration
Restoration of the precise tooth shape for correct chewing function and aesthetic result.
Treatment process

What to expect

Treatment length depends on the extent of the defect. Everything takes place under local anaesthesia – without pain.

01
Local anaesthesia
Application of a painless injection for complete anaesthesia of the treated tooth and surrounding area.
02
Rubber dam placement
Isolation of the tooth with a rubber dam to ensure a dry working field.
03
Caries removal
Gentle and thorough removal of all carious tissue.
04
Composite restoration
Layered application of composite resin with light curing into a fully anatomical shape.
05
Bite adjustment and polishing
Final adjustment of the filling to the patient's bite and smoothing of the surface for long-term durability.
Why this method

Advantages that make the difference

Composite filling with a rubber dam is today the gold standard for caries treatment.

Highly aesthetic result
The filling is colour-matched to the natural tooth shade – invisible and natural.
Completely metal-free
Unlike amalgam, composite resin contains no metallic components or mercury.
Strong bond with the tooth
When the procedure is followed correctly, the material provides a reliable adhesive bond with the tooth tissue.
Similar properties to natural tooth
Composite resin has physical properties close to natural tooth tissue – it behaves naturally.
Long lifespan
With correct hygiene and careful technique, the filling lasts for many years without needing replacement.
Who is this treatment suitable for

Suitable for everyone

Composite filling treatment is suitable for all patients regardless of age – from children to adults.

The method has limits only in the extent of the defect. If caries involves too large a part of the tooth, a ceramic crown may be more suitable.

Do not delay treatment

Dental caries does not heal on its own and grows over time. The earlier we treat it, the simpler and less expensive the treatment.

Indications
Dental caries in early and advanced stages
Replacement of old amalgam fillings
Broken or chipped tooth
Aesthetic correction of tooth shape
Defect of appropriate extent (not requiring a crown)
Frequently asked questions

Most common questions

Have another question? Call or write to us.

Is composite filling treatment painful?
Caries treatment is performed under local anaesthesia, so it is completely painless. After the anaesthesia wears off, mild sensitivity may occur for a short time.
How long does a white filling last?
With correct procedure and proper home hygiene, a composite filling can last for many years without needing replacement.
Are there any limitations to composite filling treatment?
Composite filling treatment is limited by the extent of the defect. If caries involves a larger area of the tooth, a composite filling may not be sufficient.
Why do you use a rubber dam?
A dry working field is essential for proper bonding of the filling material to the tooth. The rubber dam isolates the tooth from saliva and moisture.
