Even though genetics has an important role in the occurrence of the diseases of the oral cavity, regular and correct tooth brushing and the use of additional means for oral hygiene represent the key factor for the health of your teeth and mouth.

Routine oral hygiene is one of the most important things you can do for your health.

Healthy teeth and gums not only enable you to radiate with self-assurance, but they also enable you to eat and speak properly, and even to live longer.

Regular check-ups and professional teeth cleaning are essential for the prevention of caries formation, as well as for avoiding a wide range of diseases of the oral cavity.

Short instructions for the preventive maintenance of teeth and oral cavity health

Our dentists recommend the use of dental floss in your evening routine of teeth cleaning. The adequate cleaning with nylon threads helps remove the traces of food and bacteria accumulated between teeth, and thus prevents the inflammation of gums and premature gum recession.

After the cleaning with dental floss, brush your teeth and gums with a toothbrush with soft bristles in order to remove the remains of food and the soft plaque from the teeth. This way of performing dental hygiene keeps teeth beautiful and white, eliminates bad breath, and helps in the prevention of dental and gum diseases.

Finally, when you finish cleaning the teeth with dental floss and toothbrush, use antibacterial mouthwash in order to complete the oral care routine. Mouthwash kills 99% of microbes which cause bad breath, and helps the reduction of gingivitis, and clinical studies have proven that it helps the reduction of plaque formation.

Regular check-ups are essential for dental health

The appropriate care of the oral cavity does not end at home. Besides your usual routine of cleaning with dental floss, brushing with a toothbrush, and using mouthwash, making appointments for follow-up examinations at the dentist’s are very important in preserving the health of the oral cavity.

The procedures of dental health care

Besides the professional periodic teeth cleaning, Belville Dental Clinic also offers several different dental services so that your teeth would remain healthy and beautiful. Modern and safe procedures of teeth whitening, then the treatment with orthodontic appliances or fluorination of children’s teeth are only some of the services that are necessary in order to keep your wide smile.

Today, teeth whiteningis considered a safe and reliable method.
If your teeth are healthy and adequately repaired with fillings, you are a good candidate for teeth whitening. It must be noted that the substance used for teeth whitening will not have an effect on the prosthetics works and possibly visible fillings in the zone of teeth whitening, so they should be replaced after the teeth whitening treatment.

In a situation when an empty space remains after a tooth is extracted, it is necessary to replace it, since, on the contrary, the consequences may occur which could cause rotation or slanting of adjacent teeth towards the empty space, their position and function loss, as well as the bone loss in the zone of the missing tooth, which could all make your facial expression unnatural, and if a tooth is missing in the smile zone, it can also affect your self-confidence.

To retrieve the natural function and appearance of lost teeth may be very difficult. A denture or a bridge may seem an adequate choice of treatment, but in comparison with implants, they have limited results. In most of the cases, dental implants are the most worthy aesthetic and functional solution for the replacement of the missing teeth.

What is All on 4?
All of 4 represents a modern concept of the replacement of lost teeth in toothless patients or in patients who have a certain number of the remaining teeth in the jaw which are indicated for extraction.

Also, this method can be performed in patients who are not satisfied with the quality of life when using total or partial dentures.

The procedure consists of the extraction of the remaining teeth in the jaw and simultaneous placement of 4 implants in one jaw. The procedure takes from 60 to 90 minutes. It is performed in local anaesthesia.

On the same day, after the implant placement, patients get a temporary prosthesis which they use for 3 months. After the healing period, the prosthesis is changed for the definite prosthesis which is fixed on the 4 implants.

The advantages of this concept are shorter waiting time for making the prosthesis, only one surgical procedure, and finally, lower costs in comparison with the interventions which imply the placement of 6 to 8 implants into the jaw bone

RCT or Root Canal Treatment is the procedure which is performed on a tooth in a situation when the tooth is damaged to such an extent that it is necessary to remove the nerve or the remains of the infected nerve from the canal within the tooth root.

That is a conservative procedure which is used for fixing a natural tooth with the aim of its preservation and further functioning in the oral cavity.
A tooth root is a term which is used to describe the natural cavities within a tooth. Below the hard surface of a tooth, there is a chamber in which the pulp, made of blood vessels, nerves and connective tissues, is located.
Root canal treatment is performed in one or more sessions, with the use of the appropriate medications and modern diagnostic devices.

After the root canal treatment, the last step may include a further rehabilitation of the tooth. Bearing in mind the fact that, most often, the tooth from which the nerve has been removed is such that it misses a larger portion of the dental substance in the crown area, a crown or some other prosthesis should be placed on such a tooth with the aim of its additional protection.

Prosthetic rehabilitation of a tooth comprises the placement of crowns and bridges on the teeth.
The most common indication for placing crowns is a significant damage of a tooth due to the progressed caries or the fractures of the crown part of a tooth.
During the preparation of a tooth for the superstructure, the crown part of the tooth is shaped circularly in a thin layer (0.5mm to 1mm) so that a space would be left for the ceramic prosthesis of the tooth. When the tooth is prepared, the impression of the shaped tooth is taken, which is then sent to the dental laboratory and used for making the prosthesis.
It should be noted that besides the conventional way of taking the impression which has been used for years, today, we have a possibility of intraoral scanning of individual teeth or the complete jaw, which gives us higher precision, quick making of prosthesis and a greater comfort for a patient. Also, thanks to intraoral scanning and special software, patients have the opportunity to see what the future prosthesis will look like even before we start making it.
During the process of making the definite crown, we make a temporary acrylic crown for the patient, for both aesthetic and functional reasons.
The final crown is shaped so that it looks natural and it is attached with special cement for cementing prosthesis.

• Metal-ceramic crowns have been a standard in the rehabilitation of damaged teeth for years. They have metal at its base, and a layer of ceramic over the metal base. They represent a long-lasting solution, they are resistant, and have a beautiful aesthetic effect. In the zone of aesthetics, due to the metal that represents the base of these crowns, the transparency may differ in comparison with the natural teeth, so the recommendation would be to make non-metal crowns.
• Non-metal crowns are totally made of ceramic, so this kind of prosthesis meets the highest aesthetic requirements. Due to the fact that ceramic crowns provide an extraordinary aesthetic effect, we recommend them as the material of choice when the aesthetic restoration in the frontal region is concerned.
• Veneers/facets are thin, transparent shells made of porcelain and shaped in such a way that they perfectly resemble natural, healthy teeth. After the construction, they are cemented to the frontal (visible) surface of a tooth with the aim to improve the look of the tooth without any drastic changes on the original tooth. Thanks to veneers, it is possible to use the minimum invasive approach to change the imperfections in the shape, colour, and size of a tooth. The construction of veneers is a simple, practical procedure after which you will get a brilliant smile in only a few days.

It is of extreme importance that a child acquires a habit of oral hygiene from the earliest age. Along with the proper hygiene, a dental check-up is recommended to be done every 6 months.

The steps you can take in order to prevent the occurrence of caries and gum diseases:

• Brush your teeth at least twice a day with a soft or medium hard toothbrush and toothpaste that contains fluorine
• Change the toothbrush every two to three months
• Have your teeth checked by the dentist twice a year

In case caries appears, with a timely reaction we will prevent its progression. It enables us smooth work, and you get a painless, fast and easy treatment.

Fissure sealing is a totally painless treatment which is intended to provide the protection of teeth from caries in certain predilected places.

Teeth fluorination is another one of numerous preventive programs which are aimed at the prevention of your dental health. In Belville Dental Clinic it is done twice a year and it lasts 15 minutes.

Wisdom teeth or third molars are teeth which grow the last, usually between the ages 17 and 25.
Since there is usually not enough space for wisdom teeth in the oral cavity, today, in a large number of cases, the third molars are removed even in early childhood.

Using orthodontic appliances we can correct the irregularities of the jaw and the inadequate position of teeth.
If you have rotated teeth or you have problems with chewing or speaking due to the irregular bite, with the help of orthodontic treatment, you have a possibility to solve those problems, and get a perfect, natural smile.
Even though it is recommended that orthodontic treatment should start in children when their permanent teeth start growing, the treatment can be carried out at any age, which means that adults can also use the treatment with orthodontic appliances.
As long as you wish a perfect smile, an orthodontic treatment can be the choice of a method for you.

• Fixed orthodontic appliance – Even though classic (metal) retainers have been a “golden standard” in orthodontics for years, today we have a possibility of using their modern versions which are more efficient and more comfortable for patients.
  Thanks to small brackets, they look much subtler, and the choice of materials they are made of enable that the braces are almost invisible.
• Retention foils – A modern orthodontic treatment and new digital technologies can provide you with retention appliances which are transparent, removable, and aesthetically acceptable.
  The foils are made of transparent plastic material and, by using them, you will be able to align your teeth into an ideal position.
  When it is worn, the foil is practically invisible, which makes it a perfect option for those who are concerned about how they might look with braces on their teeth.
  The foil is also removable, so you will have no trouble if you want to eat your favourite food. They also facilitate foil maintenance and oral hygiene routines.
  It is important to mention that this kind of retention appliance has limited possibilities and it is not meant for complex cases.

Today, lasers are used with great success in numerous medical indications.

The effect of lasers in dentistry is manifold positive for soft tissues because it enables less invasive methods with minimum post-operative complications and procedures which usually do not require the use of anaesthesia.

If we talk about its effect on the hard dental tissue, lasers can successfully be used today in caries removal, respecting all the principles of minimum invasive dentistry, then in endodontic treatments of root canals, as well as in certain surgical procedures.

Our professional staff is totally educated about the safe application of lasers and about taking safety and protection measures for the patients and for the employees.
