Preventive treatment
Includes all activities and methods aiming at prevention of teeth diseases.Among the offered preventive services there are the following treatments:

• removing tartar and dental plaque
• sealing
• applying varnish
• fluoridation
• information regarding proper treatments such as brushing the teeth and washing the oral cavity

Bacteria plaque that has not been removed or improperly removed turns into tartar, which can lead to periodontosis, namely gum and paradontium diseases, and, consequently, to mobile teeth and their loss. In order to prevent this, regular (every six months) hygiene treatments consisting in removal of tartar and dental plaque are recommended. This treatment is usually performed without anaesthesia, but in the case of increased paint sensitivity of gums it is possible to use local anaesthesia, significantly increasing the patientís comfort and eliminating the unpleasant sensation. In the first stage of the treatment, the tartar is removed with use of the ultrasounds, and following the teeth are cleaned from the dental plaque using the sand-blasting tools.

This treatment polishes the surface of teeth, which makes it difficult for bacteria and tartar to deposit again. Sand-blasting substantially brightens and whitens the smile.
Sealing has been a routine preventive treatment for several years. It refers to molar and premolar teeth, as the anatomic structure of occlusal planes of these teeth, due to deep pits and fissures is favourable to retention of bacteria, which colonise the fissure already when the tooth is erupting. The sealing treatment is totally pain-free. Prior to sealing, the dentist is cleaning the teeth from all dental plaques, then gently applies the sealant inside the fissure.
!!!! Sealing the first teeth should be performed as early as possible, within the first 6 months after the tooth has erupted.

Varnish application is performed by the dentist using high-concentration fluorine. Prior to application of such varnish, the dentist thoroughly cleans the teeth and applies the preparation onto the dry surface with an applicator. Usually, the varnish hardens in the mouth environment, at the same time creating a transparent film. The advantage of fluorine-based varnishes is long lastingness on the tooth surface and a long-term preservation of fluorine.
It is recommended to apply varnish twice a year, and in the case of a greater susceptibility for tooth decay, it should be done more frequently ñ every 3 months.
The anti-decay mechanism of fluoridation consists in strengthening the external layer of the tooth ñ the enamel. As a result of fluorine ions entering into reaction with enamel apatites (main constructive element of the enamel) the resistance to acids is increased. Simultaneously the fluorine stops metabolism of bacteria cells located on the dental plaque.

Conservative treatment

Conservative dentistry consists of the following treatments: • cleaning decayed cavities • counteracting recreation of the decay process • reconstructing the shape of the tooth Different materials are used depending on the position of the tooth, the size of the cavity, as well as individual needs of the patients. Amalgams - these are silver-coloured materials of high durability. Currently, these are among less frequently used materials, recommended when filling tooth side, small cavities and for patients with lowered mouth hygiene.

Composites - are currently the most frequently used filling materials. They enable to mach the filling colour perfectly with the natural colour of the patientís tooth, which is very significant when treating front teeth. Thanks to the fluorine contents, some composites have preventive proprieties and are particularly recommended for milk teeth. Ceramic - the basic advantage of this type of fillings is its great resistance to abrasion and stability of the shape. Their production is much more time consuming and complicated. It requires cooperation with prosthetic laboratory, which increases their costs.

Pedodontics

Due to their distrust and fear of dental examination, we surround our youngest patients with special care, this way trying to develop their positive approach towards the dentist. It will benefit throughout their entire life. It is very important for the milk teeth to remain healthy or treated until the moment of their natural exchange. Their premature removal (for instance as a result of advanced tooth decay) may cause jaw bone growth disorder and result in lack of space for the permanent teeth. This results in necessity of further long-term orthodontic treatment. Also, inflammatory processes occurring in the root of the milk tooth are not insignificant for the development of permanent teeth. Germs of the latter ones are in the area of roots of milk teeth and as a result of an inflammatory condition, it can lead to serious disorder of their growth.

Endodontics

Endodontics is a field of conservative dentistry dealing with root canal treatment of teeth. To put it very simple, the root canal treatment consist in removing the infected pulp from the sockets and root canals and subsequently filling them with chemically neutral material, that does not irritate the area adjacent to the tip of the root. After this treatment, the front teeth, if not very damaged, do not require a complicated reconstruction. In most cases it is sufficient to fill them with a composite material. The situation of back teeth - especially the molar ones is slightly different. The risk of breaking the canal treated tooth is much greater, and therefore it is recommended to cover it with a prosthetic crown.

Orthodontics
Some of us have beautiful, straight teeth. However, in some cases a certain tooth is atypically positioned. Sometimes the problem refers to several teeth or the entire arch. Incorrect occlusion is sometimes obviously visible, in other times it can remain unnoticed. We speak of incorrect occlusion when the upper teeth do not come into correct contact with the lower ones, because the dental arches have an atypical shape or do not match in size. Such occlusions can be corrected not only in the case of children and youth, but also in adults.
The dentist can treat this with removable retainer or fixed braces
Removable retainer is recommended for treatment of children between the age of 4 and 12, thus, prior to completion of exchange of milk teeth into permanent ones. It is recommended to wear the braces for several hours a day (4-6 hours) and to wear it overnight. The outcome of the treatment depends on the child to a great degree - the device is effective only if it is used.

Fixed braces are recommended for treating both children and adults. The braces are attached to the dental arch using special clams and glue. Correction of its setting is executed every couple of weeks. The braces work 24 hours, which enables its more efficient use. In the course of the treatment the teeth and the braces must be cleaned thoroughly after every meal and before bedtime. Very hard and sticky foods, which can damage the braces, should be avoided.

Dental surgery

Prosthetics

Prosthetics deals with reconstruction of missing teeth, broken teeth, correction of the shape, and removal of permanent teeth discoloration. Depending on the needs, we offer our patients a whole range of solutions customized to their aesthetic and functional requirements. Such solutions include removable dentures (frame dentures, partial and complete functionally unstable dentures) and fixed dentures (crown inlays, crown-root inlays, prosthetic crowns and bridges). Thanks to a constant cooperation of doctors and technicians, we provide our patients with fast and efficient solutions and high quality of work.

Implantology
What is an implant?
In dentistry, it is an element that replaces the root of own tooth. When surgically implemented into the bone of the alveolus appendix, it enables to perform a fixed prosthetic restoration. Titanium is the basic material from which the implants are made. It is perfectly tolerated by the human body, and at the same time durable enough to take loads to which the roots of natural teeth are subject.
The entire treatment is divided into two stages. In the fist ñ surgical stage, a titanium implant is implanted. Only after several months it is possible to do the prosthetic reconstruction and subject the implants to any loads. The process is long-lasting, but in exchange it guarantees a lifelong foundation for prosthetics. However, not every patient can be treated with implants. Diseases such as tumours, AIDS, diabetes, hypertensions, osteoporosis, and mental diseases are absolute contraindications for this treatment. Addicted smokers, alcoholics, persons with allergies, persons suffering from rheumatic disease, coronary disease, persons older than 65, young persons, who are still growing should rather not have implants.

Cosmetic dentistry

When defining the term of cosmetic dentistry, it should be stated that the main objective of research and therapy of this relatively new field of dentistry is the improvement of the aesthetic appearance of teeth and face. The typical treatments used for this purpose are:   • cosmetic veneers These are fixed prosthetic dentures used in cosmetic dentistry to cover the non-aesthetic surfaces of upper and lower teeth (discoloration of teeth difficult to whiten, enamel deficiencies, non-cosmetic fillings, extension of detrited teeth, diastema between teeth)

• teeth whitening
Beautiful, white, shinning and healthy teeth are everyone's dream. The colour of our teeth depends on the degree of mineralization of hard tissue of the tooth. Regardless of what "the nature gave us" we are able to correct the colour of our teeth. For this purpose we can use a whitening treatment. We can choose out of several treatment methods and techniques. One of them is at-home whitening method - the so called overnight patch-based whitening. The treatment is carried out using a special gel which is applied to a previously prepared teeth patch and put overnight. The effect is already visible after several days. Another method is whitening at the clinic. In this case, a much stronger remedy is used and therefore the result is immediate. This treatment must be performed under a strict supervision of the dentist.
