During therapeutic dental treatment, damaged tooth tissues are restored using biocompatible materials to restore dental aesthetics and chewing function, creating a beautiful smile and maximizing quality of life.Recent studies on the human microbiome have shown that dental caries (tooth decay) is a chronic non-infectious disease that causes the destruction of dental hard tissues. The risk factors for this disease are the same as for atherosclerosis, diabetes, high blood pressure, and other chronic non-infectious diseases. Dental caries is a consequence of genetic, physiological, environmental, and behavioral factors. It is concerning that although dental caries is a preventable disease, its prevalence exceeds 90% and has not decreased over the past 30 years. For these reasons, the protocols for caries treatment and prevention at Aukštėja clinic are based on advanced principles of biological holistic dentistry.Firstly, precise diagnosis of infection foci is performed using digital intraoral cameras, three-dimensional dental scanners, dental X-ray machines, and computer tomography. This ensures accuracy and informativeness of diagnosis and treatment planning, patient comfort, clear visualization, and excellent patient-doctor communication.As mentioned, at Aukštėja clinic, the methodology of dental caries treatment is based on a holistic approach to human health. Therefore, in the initial stage of caries, in addition to drilling and filling, a unique “Icon” micro-invasive system is used, which helps remove early-stage caries and stop its progression while preserving the majority of natural tooth tissues.Additionally, special attention is paid to the safe removal of amalgam (mercury-containing) fillings at the clinic, using efficient vacuum suction, oxygen devices, a mouth-protecting dam system, and protective masks. Therapeutic dental treatment positively affects the overall balance and harmony of the body.
