What are the conservative dental treatments?

A healthy natural tooth resists forces and stress 3 times more (Kishen A, Vedantam, 2007), is more elastic, adapts, defends itself and responds better; there is greater resistance to fracture, which leads to greater longevity of the tooth. A greater number of natural teeth in the mouth increases the quality of chewing, nutrition, more defense against disease, increases the quality and years of life.

The purpose of conservative dentistry is to care for, preserve, and restore the aesthetics, oral health, and function of natural teeth as much as possible. Basically, the objective is to replace the affected part of the tooth and restore dental aesthetics, in the most conservative way possible.

In oral rehabilitation treatments and conservative dentistry, a smile design is achieved starting from a meticulous evaluation and clinical history, improving the position of crooked teeth with orthodontics, doing dental whitening under conservative protocols with time control, concentration of the bleaching material and maintaining the color parameters according to age; restoring the tooth with restorations that preserve the healthy enamel as much as possible, such as resins, inlays (they replace only the affected part) and veneers with non-invasive techniques that respect the natural shape of the tooth and the soft tissue (the gum around the tooth ); doing root canals to avoid removing the tooth and give it a chance to keep it and continue to function in the mouth.
