Dental therapy is a group of treatments and procedures aimed at repairing, protecting, and improving the health of teeth and the mouth. This type of therapy is necessary for treating various oral issues such as cavities, teeth damaged by trauma, infections, and periodontal diseases. Dental therapy is essential for maintaining tooth function, oral aesthetics, and preventing the spread of other health problems that could affect the entire body.

Why should dental therapy be done ?

1. Prevention of cavity and infection spread: Dental therapy helps stop the spread of cavities, which can cause deeper damage to teeth and gums. Fillings and other treatments help close damaged areas and prevent infections that could lead to tooth loss.

2. Restoring function and aesthetics: Treatments like fillings and dental restorations restore full function to the teeth and give them a more natural and healthy appearance. In some cases, aesthetic fillings use materials that match the color of the teeth, making them invisible and beautiful.

3. Prevention of severe pain and discomfort.

4. Preserving teeth and reducing the need for further treatments: Early dental therapy helps preserve natural teeth for a longer period, avoiding the need for more expensive and painful treatments like prosthetics and surgery.
