How to Repair Tooth Decay

Tooth decay can be restored with resin filling, inlay restoration and preformed crown restoration.
1. Resin filling: Generally, it is suitable for anterior teeth or cavities with small decayed area, and both adults and children can undergo resin filling. The resin material is beautiful in color and can be bonded to the tooth. The decayed material in the decayed tooth is cleaned out and the cavity is filled with composite resin.
2. Inlay: If the decayed tooth has a large area and cannot achieve a good retention effect, you can choose to have an inlay repair, which is more suitable for adults. Inlays are intracoronal restorations embedded in the dental tissues to restore the shape of the teeth, which can well restore the shape of the occlusal and maxillofacial surfaces and the neighboring relationship. It is necessary to clean up the decayed tooth, prepare the cavity, bite the model, and try on the inlay and articulation after the inlay is done.
3. Pre-formed crown restoration: When the decayed area of the baby teeth is relatively large and the filling can not achieve good retention effect, pre-formed crown restoration can be used. Pre-formed crown is a kind of pre-formed crown that fits the tooth very well. After filling the tooth, putting on the pre-formed crown can protect the milk tooth very well, preventing the milk tooth filling from falling off and the tooth body from breaking.
It is recommended that you go to the dentist for a checkup and choose a treatment according to the specific degree of decay of the tooth.
