Caries is the damage of tooth’s hard tissue. It is important to detect the carious processes early and to eliminate them as soon as possible. The sooner a treatment is started, the less the damage is. In addition, patients should take into account that there are no major symptoms or complaints at the beginning of the disease. The symptoms develop slowly and start with complaints about teeth sensitivity to sweet, sour or cold food and drinks. If caries is not treated in time, inflammation of the tooth nerve is formed. Then the treatment is longer and more difficult.
Caries is caused by pathogenic micro-organisms present in the mouth, combined with superficial tooth cleaning and irregular eating mode. This, most commonly, is associated with the lack of information, use of wrong toothbrushes or inadequate tooth paste selection.
