Root canal treatment

You've probably heard a lot about root canal treatment. Long-term and painful treatment, the need to poison the tooth... Nowadays, endodontic treatment has completely changed thanks to microscopes. Thanks to this device, root canal treatment is completely comfortable and significantly increases its effectiveness. Don't be afraid any longer! Take care of your dental health today!

WHAT DO YOU NEED TO KNOW ABOUT ROOT ROOT TREATMENT?
Root canal treatment is performed when the pulp of the tooth becomes inflamed. In such a case, endodontic treatment becomes the only salvation for the teeth. During root canal treatment, we use precise microscopes. Thanks to them, it is possible to perform the procedure during one visit without the need to poison the tooth. Additionally, the use of a microscope significantly increases the effectiveness of treatment. We should also not forget that the endodontic treatment is completely comfortable, thanks to the effective anesthesia used in our clinic.

HOW IS ROOT TREATMENT PERFORMED?
We start treatment with thorough diagnostics. The basic examination is taking an X-ray, which allows for precise determination of the length of all canals, which allows for proper planning of the entire procedure. Moreover, during the consultation, the doctor will talk to you about the entire treatment, answer all your questions and will be happy to dispel any doubts. Thanks to this, you will feel comfortable and the treatment will take place in a pleasant atmosphere.

In our clinic we have microscopes that we use during root canal treatment. These devices, equipped with additional lighting, enable up to 25x zoom, thanks to which the doctor receives an accurate image of the treatment area. This is extremely important because it helps the dentist precisely clean all canals and thus effectively carry out the entire treatment. The solutions we use mean that the procedure is performed in one visit and without the need to poison the tooth. This makes it possible to complete the entire treatment in complete comfort.

The treated tooth is covered with a cophedram, thanks to which bacteria from saliva do not get into the canals, which are cleaned with special preparations. To tightly fill the canals, we use a safe material, i.e. liquid gutta-percha. The treatment ends with the reconstruction of the tooth crown. After the treatment, you will be able to enjoy a beautiful and healthy smile.

STEP BY STEP ROOT TREATMENT
1. The first stage is to carry out all necessary diagnostic tests, which will allow the doctor to precisely plan the entire treatment. The consultation is also a moment when you can ask all your troubling questions and share your doubts. The dentist will also prepare the entire treatment plan, as well as a preliminary cost estimate, making the entire process predictable from the very beginning.

2. During the procedure, the doctor covers the tooth with cophedram and then cleans all the canals using special preparations. In our clinic, root canal treatment is performed under a microscope. In this way, the effectiveness of the treatment increases significantly and can be performed during one visit. Remember that the treatment is painless due to the anesthesia we use.

3. The cleaned canals are filled tightly with a completely safe material, gutta-percha. Then the tooth crown is reconstructed. For this purpose, a composite material or prosthetic reconstruction may be used, which requires preparation in a prosthetic laboratory. After completing the treatment, you will be able to enjoy a healthy and beautiful smile.

Prevention

No one needs to be convinced that prevention is better than cure. That is why in our dental clinic we offer all the most important preventive treatments that help maintain good oral health. Thanks to them, you can be sure that your teeth are safe!

WHAT DO YOU NEED TO KNOW ABOUT ORAL HYGIENE PREVENTION?
Prevention is a series of various treatments performed by a qualified hygienist in a dental office. Regular visits, at least once every six months, help keep your teeth healthy and prevent the formation of caries, gum and periodontal diseases.

However, we cannot forget about oral hygiene at home. You should brush your teeth at least twice a day, rinse your mouth with special liquids and use dental floss. In our dental clinic, a qualified hygienist provides detailed instructions on how to use all these methods. In addition, it will also help you choose the best oral hygiene products tailored specifically for you. It is also worth mentioning that oral health is supported by a well-balanced diet and giving up harmful habits, e.g. smoking.

WHY IS IT WORTH USING OFFICE ORAL HYGIENIZATION?
You probably dream of a beautiful and healthy smile, because it is thanks to it that you can largely enjoy a comfortable and peaceful life. To enjoy aesthetic teeth for a long time, it is necessary to carry out dental hygiene procedures. Why? It has long been known that one of the biggest killers of teeth is caries, which is often responsible for numerous cavities in the teeth. Its formation can be effectively prevented by in-office hygiene treatments, which you can see for yourself by visiting our dental clinic.

Tartar deposition turns out to be an extremely serious problem. How is it created? After each meal, bacterial plaque remains on the teeth. Its removal is relatively simple - perform home oral hygiene procedures, such as brushing, rinsing with mouthwashes and flossing. It turns out that if we neglect to clean our mouth, the dental plaque will start to turn into tartar, which can only be removed in a dentist's office. Special devices are used for this purpose. Carrying out specific treatments is extremely important because tartar is an ideal environment for the development of various types of bacteria. This is a short way to the emergence of the problem of caries or periodontitis. It is worth adding that tartar may also result in gum recession and inflammation. In-office oral hygiene treatments easily remove the cause of the problem, thanks to which the teeth can be kept healthy.

The aim of prevention is not only to remove tartar, but also to strengthen the teeth. Therefore, in-office oral hygiene includes treatments aimed at providing the teeth with appropriate minerals. Thanks to this, it is possible to maintain oral health for a long time.

WHAT PREVENTIVE TREATMENTS DO WE PERFORM?
In our dental clinic, we perform all the most important preventive treatments. It is recommended to attend comprehensive in-office oral hygiene treatments at least once every six months, unless your doctor recommends otherwise. People who smoke should remember to visit more often. It is worth remembering that only regular oral hygiene treatments can keep your mouth healthy.

Scaling – this is a treatment aimed at breaking down tartar. For this purpose, a special device is used, a scaler, which emits ultrasound. It is worth remembering that this procedure is completely safe and completely painless because the natural tooth structure is not damaged.

Sandblasting - the purpose of this treatment is to remove deposits that are located in hard-to-reach places. To achieve this, a stream of water with a special powder is directed to the surface of the teeth. Thanks to this, oral hygiene can be significantly improved.

Polishing – during this treatment, the surface of the teeth is polished, which strengthens the teeth and thus provides more effective protection against the appearance of tartar.

Fluoridation – the aim of this treatment is to provide the teeth with an additional amount of fluoride. In this way, the teeth are strengthened, which has a positive effect on oral health.

Dental physiotherapy

Dental rehabilitation - what does it do and how can it help?

This is a field of physiotherapy that deals with ailments in the following areas: cranio-mandibular, craniofacial and cranio-cervical.

The proper function and structure of structures in the above areas, i.e. the jaw, maxilla, temporomandibular joints, cranial nerves and masticatory muscles - determine the correct performance of basic physiological activities, such as biting, chewing, yawning, swallowing, digesting, speaking, and even respiration.

Disturbances in the structure and operation of the above structures may result in pain or impaired functioning in the mentioned areas.

Factors leading to dysfunction in the area of the stomatognathic apparatus include: morphological changes, direct injuries, overload, incorrect habits, inappropriate and persistent positions at work, long-term stress, and emotional issues.

Below is a list of questions that will help guide you to possible problems that should be consulted with a dental rehabilitator:

• Do you hear a clicking/crackling/pop noise in your TMJ when you open your mouth or chew?
• Do you have trouble opening your mouth wide or chewing food?
• Do you have episodes of unconscious teeth clenching?
• Do you grind your teeth at night?
• Do you feel tired, painful facial muscles after the night?
• Have you noticed strange sensations of hypersensitivity to touch or hypersensitivity to temperature in your facial skin?
• Do you experience pain around the base of your head, neck, face or temporomandibular joints?
• Do you often suffer from headaches?
• Have you ever been in an accident or had an injury to your head, face or chin?
• Do you experience ringing or tinnitus in your ears, or does your ear feel full?

WHAT DO YOU NEED TO KNOW ABOUT DENTAL SURGERY?
Dental surgery procedures are often one of the elements of comprehensive treatment that allows you to restore a beautiful and fully functional smile. It is these comprehensive actions that allow, among other things, the effective reconstruction of entire dental arches. However, it is worth remembering that one of the most common surgical procedures is extraction, i.e. removal of wisdom teeth and cutting of the frenulum. Thanks to them, you can easily prevent more serious problems from occurring in the future.

Many people fear that dental treatment will involve pain. Fortunately, nowadays the priority is to carry out all treatments with the highest comfort. This is possible thanks to the use of effective anesthesia, which makes the treatment performed in our clinic always painless.

WHAT TREATMENTS DO WE PERFORM?
In our clinic we perform all the most important dental surgery procedures. The treatment is carried out by experts with many years of experience who successfully fulfill dreams of healthy and functional smiles.

Tooth removal – this procedure is recommended when effective conservative or root canal treatment is not possible. A common problem is also the appearance of cysts and inflammation, which negatively affect the overall health of the oral cavity, necessitating extraction.

Extraction of eights – wisdom teeth can cause many problems from the moment they appear. It may turn out that proper hygiene is virtually impossible, which leads to the development of disease lesions. An unfavorable position of the wisdom teeth may make treatment impossible. In this case, it is necessary to remove the tooth. An erupting wisdom tooth may also cause orthodontic defects. To prevent this, wisdom teeth extraction is also performed.

Cutting the frenulum – this is a simple procedure that should be performed if an inappropriate length of the sublingual or labial frenulum is diagnosed. Thanks to this, it is possible to prevent the occurrence of speech therapy defects or diastema, i.e. a small gap between the upper teeth.

Lifting the floor of the maxillary sinus – this procedure is performed when there is not enough bone tissue. During treatment, the bottom of the maxillary sinus is raised using special tools. Then the free space is filled with a special material, which allows you to achieve the expected effects.

Guided bone regeneration – special biocompatible materials are used to rebuild bones. Carrying out the procedure allows you to perform implantological treatment.

Radectomy – this procedure is performed on teeth with many roots and is often the last salvation for the teeth. Treatment is recommended in cases of serious carious lesions or inflammation. This procedure involves removing one of the roots, but without damaging the tooth crown.

Root tip resectiona – treatment is recommended in a situation where inflammation has developed as a result of poorly performed root canal treatment or negligence. The treatment involves removing the root tip, which effectively solves the problem.

dentistry

Daily oral hygiene does not always prevent tooth decay, the first symptom of which is often stabbing pain. This is a clear sign that you need to go to the dentist's office. Dental cavities may also occur as a result of mechanical damage. Fortunately, in such cases, conservative dentistry provides the solution. In our clinic, we perform all treatments that allow us to effectively remove various dental problems.

WHAT IS CONSERVATIVE DENTISTRY?
Conservative dentistry deals with the treatment of early carious lesions. It provides methods that allow the use of effective solutions that restore full functionality in the oral cavity. In our dental clinic, we achieve stunning results by using only the highest quality composite materials. This way, you can guarantee that all fillings are extremely aesthetic and the entire treatment is effective.

HOW DO WE TREAT CARIES?
If caries is detected at a very early stage, it is possible to limit yourself to only preventive treatments, thanks to which the lesions are removed. In case of deeper carious lesions, full treatment is necessary. First, the infected tissues must be cleaned, and then the place is filled with composite material. The entire treatment allows you to restore full functionality in the oral cavity and dental health. So if you notice any disturbing symptoms, do not hesitate - be sure to visit our professional dental clinic, where we will help you comprehensively.

LIGHT-CURED FILLINGS
The first stage of treatment in our clinic is always a thorough diagnosis. Based on it, it is possible to propose the best methods that will bring the expected results. If the diagnostics reveal carious lesions, it is necessary to thoroughly clean the infected tissues. It should be remembered that the procedure is completely comfortable because our clinic always uses effective anesthesia. The resulting defect is filled with composite material, which is then illuminated with a special lamp. Thanks to this, the filling quickly acquires the appropriate hardness, so there is no risk of it deforming or falling out. A big advantage of this solution is the ability to consume food and drinks immediately after the procedure. Moreover, light-cured fillings are characterized by high durability and aesthetics. This is achieved by the fact that the composite material comes in various shades of white, which allows you to always individually match the color of the filling. This way, you can be sure that after leaving our clinic, you will be able to enjoy a beautiful and healthy smile.

Treatment of periodontal diseases

Periodontal disease, next to caries, is the most common cause of missing teeth in the oral cavity. The loss of teeth leads to numerous serious consequences that significantly reduce the quality of life. That is why it is so important to take effective measures to deal with periodontal disease. In our clinic, we perform all the most important periodontal treatments that will help you restore your oral health.

WHAT DO YOU NEED TO KNOW ABOUT PERIODONTOLOGY?
The branch of dentistry that deals with the diagnosis and treatment of periodontal diseases is called periodontology. One of the most common diseases is periodontitis, one of the effects of which is the formation of gaps in the teeth. Missing teeth are a source of shame for many people, and the fear of smiling leads to withdrawal from social life. All these serious problems can be prevented by undergoing periodontal treatment. Don't wait any longer and take care of your oral health.

WHAT EXACTLY IS PERIODONTITIS?
Performing home hygiene treatments is extremely important because it allows you to keep your teeth healthy and thus protects against the occurrence of periodontitis. How does this disease arise? After each meal, bacterial plaque accumulates on the teeth, which can be removed by performing basic preventive measures, such as brushing, flossing and rinsing the mouth. Failure to perform these activities leads to the mineralization of bacterial plaque and thus to the formation of tartar. Its removal is only possible in a dental office because special devices must be used, including a scaler. Professional oral hygiene is very important because tartar is an ideal environment for the development of bacteria, including periodontal disease!

Periodontal disease is one of the periodontal diseases caused by tissue-destroying bacteria. The progressive disease leads to recession, i.e. receding, of the gums, which in turn causes loosening of the teeth. Hence, it is a short way to the appearance of gaps in the teeth and thus to the deterioration of the quality of life. You can effectively prevent the consequences of periodontal disease by visiting a professional dental clinic. Also remember to visit the dentist regularly, which will help you keep your mouth healthy.

It is also good to know the symptoms that indicate periodontal disease. Bleeding, redness or swelling of the gums may be a cause for concern. Halitosis is also very common, i.e. an unpleasant odor, which is also a signal that a visit to the dentist's office is necessary. You may also notice loose teeth or hypersensitivity to temperature. If you notice these symptoms, be sure to make an appointment at our dental clinic.

HOW DO WE TREAT PERIODONTOSIS?
Periodontal treatment begins with comprehensive diagnostics. The dentist will interview you, and you will be able to share all your doubts and ask any bothering questions. The next stage is to eliminate the main cause of periodontal disease, i.e. tartar. For this purpose, preventive treatments are performed, which are completely comfortable and do not interfere with the tooth tissue. The solutions we use are extremely effective and allow the entire treatment to be completely painless. Therefore, do not hesitate any longer and visit Zakopianka!

TREATMENTS PERFORMED
We perform effective and completely comfortable treatments that help you deal with periodontitis. Our doctors' skills and experience mean that you will leave the dental clinic with a wide and beautiful smile.

Scaling – during this treatment, a special device is used, a scaler, which emits ultrasound that effectively breaks up tartar. In this way, the main source of periodontal disease is eliminated. It is worth mentioning that this treatment does not interfere with tooth tissue, which means that scaling is safe and painless.

Sanding – this treatment involves directing a stream of pressurized water along with a special powder to the tooth surface. This makes it possible to remove tartar from hard-to-reach spaces.

Dental rehabilitation

Dental rehabilitation – what is it and how can it help you?

It is a treatment for ailments in the cranio-mandibular, craniofacial and cranio-cervical areas.

The proper structure and functioning of the above structural areas, in particular the jaw, maxilla, temporomandibular joints, masticatory muscles and cranial nerves, allow us to perform basic physiological activities, i.e. chewing, biting, yawning, swallowing, digestion, articulation and breathing.

Irregularities among these structures may cause pain, as well as disorders or inability to perform their functions. The causes of such dysfunctions may be morphological changes, direct injuries, incorrect habits, as well as persistent work positions and long-term stress.

The questions below will help you initially assess whether you have dysfunctions in these areas and what consequences they bring.

1. When you open your mouth or chew, do you hear a clicking/creaking noise in your temporomandibular joints?

This may indicate degeneration, tension, blocking or entrapment of certain structures within this joint. This may lead to limited range of motion and, as a result, difficulties in basic activities such as chewing, biting, yawning or even speaking.

2. Do you experience ringing or tinnitus in your ears, or does your ear feel full?

The ear canal and the temporomandibular joint are located very close to each other. They are also part of the same structure - the temporal bone. Due to their arrangement and high condensation of important parts of the nervous system, they have a great influence on each other.

Therefore, it is worth checking whether possible blockages and tensions in the temporomandibular joint do not affect our ability to hear.

3. Do you have episodes of unconscious teeth clenching?

During uncontrolled clenching of teeth, the masticatory muscles located on our face and the side of our head become very tense. Their excessive load may generate headaches, facial muscle pain, and painful sensations in the teeth. Neglecting this problem may lead to nighttime teeth grinding. It is worth paying attention to whether excessive teeth clenching is correlated with emotional aspects, e.g. anger, nervousness, reaction to stress.

4. Do you grind your teeth at night?

Teeth grinding, or bruxism, is pathological friction of the dental surfaces between the mandible and maxilla.

Due to the very high force, tooth wear occurs as well as increased tension in the muscles and bones of the face and head. Ask your partner if you grind your teeth at night. If so, be sure to consult a specialist.

5. Do you feel tired, painful facial muscles after the night?

This may be one of the symptoms of bruxism or trismus. This is often a problem that we are not aware of, so the above sensations should not be underestimated and may indicate the above-mentioned ailments. Failure to respond to the above symptoms may contribute to joint overload and destruction of dental surfaces.

6. Do you have headaches often?

The causes of headaches have a very wide range. They may also be one of the symptoms of a problem within our maxillomandibular system.

7. Do you have pain in the neck area, the base of the head, face or temporomandibular joints?

Any pain in the above areas may indicate improper functioning of one of the previously discussed areas. Often the pain is associated with increased tension resulting from a structural problem. Due to the close topographic relations of the discussed areas, ailments of one system may spread to a neighboring area, causing pain, tension or limitation of mobility or function. During the visit, we can assess the problematic area and restore proper tension and function.

8. Do you have difficulty opening your mouth wide or chewing food?

Limited range of motion may be related to blocking of the temporomandibular joint, which, similarly to clicking or snapping, causes difficulties in the daily functioning of this joint. During a visit to a specialist, you can locate the cause of the disorder, and with the help of therapy, we are able to correct and relax the problematic area to restore joint functions that are needed in basic activities.

9. Have you ever had an accident or injury to your head, face or chin?

Sometimes even inconspicuous injuries can have a significant impact on the mechanics of individual parts of our body. Sometimes, the force of accidents can lead to damage to anatomical structures, displacement of some bone elements, affecting the mechanical properties and changing the tension in the skull, face and jaw area. This may result in impaired function of the temporomandibular joints, tension headaches and facial pain.

10. Have you noticed a problem with hypersensitivity to touch, loss of sensation or hypersensitivity, e.g. to temperature in the facial area?

This may be a signal of damage or pressure on the cranial nerves supplying the face, neck and skull. The consequences may include problems with the visual or hearing apparatus and paralysis of the facial muscles. During therapy, structures along the course of the nerve are developed to release any pressure on it, thus eliminating symptoms.

In the office, the therapist conducts a comprehensive examination, analyzing occlusions, i.e. the patient's bite, the condition of the teeth, the condition of the oral cavity, as well as the structure and functionality of the temporomandibular joints. The position of the facial and skull bones is also assessed, and muscle tension in the face, head and neck is examined. These activities will enable us to find the cause of the dysfunction that causes the symptoms with which the patient comes to us. During the interview, the patient is also analyzed from a holistic perspective, by assessing his posture, possible injuries, diseases or surgeries and procedures. An extremely important factor is also the patient's lifestyle and his psychological background, as it has a very large impact on the development of certain dysfunctions in various areas of our body.

After determining the cause of the patient's problems, the therapist deals with therapy, which involves manual techniques involving bone, joint, ligament, muscle or nerve structures. They are intended to serve, among others: relaxation and correction of pathologically affected areas so that the body can regenerate faster.

After completing the therapy, the patient receives recommendations thanks to which he will be able to eliminate undesirable symptoms and support the therapy performed in the office.

Dental rehabilitation is still a little appreciated field. People are often unaware of having problems with this part of the body. Not everyone pays attention to how much our emotionality and functioning are reflected on our jaw and jaw. How often do we "grit our teeth" to move forward? How much is this area used every day while talking or eating? Most people associate rehabilitation with working on the knee or hip joints, and few people know that a lot can also be done for the joints in the face, which work just as hard as the others. We are often accompanied by headaches that are difficult to place anywhere, and which may be the result of the problems described above. It is worth coming for a consultation to get comprehensive help.

Dental therapy:

Temporomandibular joint: mobilization of the joint - joint play, traction, compression, mobilization of the tricho-ligamentous apparatus. Goal: improving the range of motion, relaxing tension, increasing joint space, releasing trapped structures, influencing proprioception.

Masticatory, neck and shoulder muscles: relaxation techniques, strengthening and stretching exercises. Goal: restoring muscle balance, stabilization, coordination.

Cranial nerves: neuromobilization, conduction tests, relaxation of structures along the course of the nerve. Purpose: releasing possible nerve entrapment, decompression, improving its mobility and conductivity.

Skull and facial bones: suture mobilization techniques - traction, compression. Goal: relieving intraosseous tensions, improving their "mobility".

Visceral therapy: mobilization, relaxation techniques. Goal: improved mobility, reduction of tension in the organ's ligaments, better vascular flow.

Circulatory/lymphatic system – pumps, indirect work by relaxing surrounding structures. Goal: improving flow, eliminating stagnation, faster regeneration, better tissue nourishment.

Prosthetics

Missing teeth cause many problems in everyday life. Perhaps you feel ashamed of smiling or you simply can't sleep soundly? Do you have to give up your favorite meals because you are unable to chew certain foods? All these problems can be effectively prevented if you decide to reconstruct your teeth. Modern dentures effectively restore the aesthetics and full functionality of the oral cavity.

WHAT DO YOU NEED TO KNOW ABOUT PROSTHETICS?
The branch of dentistry that focuses on the aesthetic and functional reconstruction of teeth is called prosthetics. It provides effective solutions to eliminate the problem of not only a single gap, but also missing teeth in the entire arch. Prosthetics includes prosthetic crowns (reconstruction of a single tooth), prosthetic bridges (replenishing several missing teeth next to each other) and dentures (allowing for the reconstruction of the entire dental arch). By using these solutions, you can effectively improve your quality of life and finally enjoy a beautiful and healthy smile.

HOW WILL TREATMENT AT THE ZAKOPIANKA DENTAL CLINIC CHANGE YOUR LIFE?
One of the most frequently mentioned effects of missing teeth is a significant deterioration of the aesthetics of the smile. It is this consequence that leads to the emergence of many more serious problems. Being ashamed of smiling can lead to gradual withdrawal from social life and, consequently, even to giving up meetings with friends. This, in turn, in some cases results in mental problems. In addition, very often a disturbance in the appearance of a smile leads to a loss of self-confidence, which can be an extremely serious consequence for people whose work involves constant contact with other people. All these problems can be effectively solved if you decide to undergo prosthetic treatment in our dental clinic.

In some cases, gaps in teeth cause speech defects. This happens because the tongue does not have the support of teeth, which makes it impossible to pronounce some sounds. This may result in a loss of self-confidence and a feeling of shame. It is also worth adding that even a single gap may make it difficult to eat some hard foods, which often makes it necessary to give up your favorite meals. Why deprive yourself of pleasure? Be sure to visit our dental clinic, where we will make your dream of a beautiful smile come true.

Abandoning treatment is not a good practice because this attitude leads to the emergence of further, more serious problems. The same applies to tooth loss. The natural situation is to have full teeth that provide adequate load on the bone. The problem occurs when even a single tooth falls out. Lack of load on the bone leads to its gradual atrophy, which results in loss of functionality in the oral cavity, deterioration of aesthetics, and the impossibility of performing implant treatment. Fortunately, even if an inappropriate amount of bone tissue is diagnosed, its reconstruction can be performed, which you can read more about on the website about dental surgery. The important thing, however, is that this problem can be effectively prevented - all you need to do is start treatment quickly. So don't delay any longer!

TYPES OF DENTURES USED IN OUR DENTAL CLINIC
At Zakopianka, we offer various types of prosthetic reconstructions that allow you to achieve the best results. Thanks to this, we can be sure that we will always meet all expectations and help with any problem. In our dental clinic we use effective solutions:

acrylic dentures – it is an economical method that allows you to reconstruct the entire dental arch. This prosthetic restoration stays in the mouth thanks to the layer of saliva located between the prosthetic restoration and the gums. Removable acrylic dentures mean that you can finally enjoy a beautiful and full smile. However, it is worth remembering that this method has some drawbacks. It turns out that using an acrylic denture does not solve the problem of difficulty eating hard foods,

skeletal prostheses – this reconstruction is attached to natural teeth or to previously implanted implants, i.e. small titanium screws that replace lost roots. Skeletal dentures are stably mounted with special clasps, thanks to which significant missing teeth can be aesthetically restored. The undoubted advantage of this solution is the limitation of the size of the palatal plate, which eliminates the problem of lack of taste sensation, as is the case with some other solutions,

dentures on implants attaching prosthetic restorations to natural teeth. The first stage of treatment in this case is the implantation of titanium implants, which are biocompatible and therefore easily integrate with the bone. Then special connectors are attached to them. This allows the installation of a prosthetic reconstruction that is characterized by the highest durability and aesthetics. It is worth adding that this solution is extremely convenient in everyday use, which is why it is gaining significantly in popularity.

MODERN TECHNIQUES USED IN ZAKOPIANKA
In our dental clinic, we use modern solutions that significantly increase the comfort and effectiveness of treatments. We use CEREC, a special device that uses CAD/CAM technology. Thanks to it, we can create a three-dimensional jaw design displayed on the monitor screen in a very short time. This allows for extremely precise creation of the future prosthetic reconstruction. It is also worth emphasizing that this is a comfortable solution because there is no need to perform a traditional impression. Moreover, thanks to this device it is possible to create a precise temporary prosthetic reconstruction. This way, each person always leaves our office with full teeth!

Aesthetic dentistry

A beautiful smile is essential! It turns out that it is mainly responsible for the first impression we make. It is no wonder that aesthetic dentistry treatments are definitely gaining in popularity. Perhaps you also want to change not only the appearance of your teeth, but above all, your life? If so, be sure to visit our dental clinic. This is where we will make your dream of a beautiful and healthy smile come true!

WHO IS AESTHETIC DENTISTRY FOR?
Cosmetic dentistry is aimed at people who are not satisfied with their smile. The problem may be unsatisfactory tooth color, various types of irregularities or incorrect shape. In our dental clinic, we are fully aware of how important a healthy and beautiful smile is, which is why we pay special attention to aesthetic dentistry. At Zakopianka, we perform accurate digital diagnostics, so we can always propose appropriate treatment methods. We want to comprehensively help everyone, which is why we offer a wide range of treatments. In our clinic, we whiten teeth using the in-office and overlay methods, and also attach porcelain and composite veneers. Thanks to these solutions, we can effectively change the appearance of your smile, which you can see for yourself when you decide to undergo treatment at our dental clinic.

WHAT IS WHITENING?
Our teeth are constantly exposed to factors that change their color. As it turns out, coffee and cigarettes are one of the biggest enemies of a white smile. An effective solution to the problem of changing the color of your teeth is whitening. It involves the use of special preparations that are intended to remove unwanted discolorations. Thanks to this treatment, you can achieve whiter teeth by up to several tones, and it is also possible to improve oral hygiene because it is first hygienized in the office. It turns out that the final effect of whitening is not only a change in appearance, but also an improvement in the health of the teeth. After the procedure, you can regain your self-confidence and finally enjoy life to the fullest!

IN-OFFICE WHITENING
The whitening treatment consists of three sessions, during which a special agent is applied to the teeth to remove unwanted discoloration. To activate the action of the preparation, a Beyond lamp is used. The final stage of the treatment is the application of a substance on the teeth that eliminates hypersensitivity. The entire process takes only an hour, and the whitening effects are visible immediately after leaving the office. With proper oral hygiene, they can last up to 2 years. All this means that you can enjoy a beautiful and white smile in a short time!

OVERLAY WHITENING
An alternative to in-office whitening is the overlay method, which allows for full control of the entire process. During the first visit, the doctor takes an impression of the teeth using a special intraoral scanner, which significantly increases comfort. This allows for precise creation of overlays made of special foil. Their interior is filled with a special whitening preparation during the entire process. In the next stage, the doctor checks the correctness of the overlays. At this point you will be advised how to use the kit. Then the entire whitening process is carried home. Overlays are most often worn at night. The first effects are visible after 5 days, and the duration of the entire process usually does not exceed 2 weeks. During the next visit, the treatment is monitored. The advantage of the overlay method is that you decide what whitening effect you will achieve.

PORCELAIN VENEERS
Veneers are thin flakes made of ceramic material. They are glued to the front of the tooth to hide imperfections. Importantly, the procedure of installing veneers leads to little interference in the hard tissue of the tooth. The beginning of treatment aims to prepare the teeth for the procedure. Most often, this stage involves cleaning the tooth and grinding the enamel. Then, a scan is performed using an intraoral scanner, thanks to which it is possible to create a precise image that allows for precise preparation of the porcelain veneer in the prosthetic laboratory. The undoubted advantage of porcelain veneers is their durability, which allows you to enjoy them for up to 15 years. However, it is important that you follow all oral hygiene rules and recommendations from your doctor.

COMPOSITE VENEERS
An alternative to porcelain veneers are composite veneers. This method involves applying a composite material to the tooth surface, and then it is appropriately modeled by the dentist. Thanks to this solution, we can achieve the expected aesthetic effects that can be admired immediately after the treatment. In this way, you can effectively remove the diastema, change the shape of the tooth and eliminate various types of discoloration. The undoubted advantage of this solution is the relatively low price. Composite veneers are most often used as a temporary solution that allows you to significantly change the appearance of your smile in a short time.

Pediatric dentistry

Early experiences have an extremely large impact on adult life, which is why today much attention is paid to pediatric dentistry. Appropriate approaches to young patients, as well as painless procedures, which are made possible by extensive knowledge and experience, make the moments spent in the dental office remembered with pleasure. We succeed in this, as evidenced by the sincere smiles on the children's faces!

WHAT SHOULD YOU KNOW ABOUT PEDIATRIC DENTISTRY?
Did you know that dental phobia, i.e. a serious fear of visiting a dentist's office, is a problem that affects many people in Poland? Very often, the reason for this fear is unpleasant experiences that occurred in childhood. Therefore, nowadays, special attention is paid to pediatric dentistry. This field is extremely difficult because it requires the expert not only to have extensive dental knowledge, but also to have pedagogical skills. Our professional clinic employs dentists who cooperate effectively with young patients, which means that children always leave Zakopianka with a broad smile. We want the first moments spent in the office to be extremely pleasant, which is why we organize adaptation visits. They allow you to build a strong relationship with a child who will remember the clinic as an interesting place and will be happy to come back.

TAKE ADVANTAGE OF AN ADAPTATION VISIT
Dentophobia is a serious problem, which is why we try to fight it effectively. For this reason, we recommend an adaptation visit, which makes your child's first experience with the dentist extremely pleasant. The child can get to know a completely new environment and ask questions that our expert will be happy to answer. The Little Patient is shown around the dental office and familiarized with the devices used. The expert tries to talk about the solutions used in dentistry in the simplest way possible, which helps create a strong relationship with the child. Thanks to this, the little patient will be happy to return to our clinic, even when comprehensive treatment is necessary. Don't wait any longer and sign your child up for an adaptation visit!

TREATMENT OF BABY TEETH
Many people underestimate the treatment of primary teeth. This is a serious mistake! First of all, it is worth noting that caries is an infectious disease, which means that it can also spread to permanent teeth. This, in turn, may result in the need for complex treatment early in life. Therefore, it is worth taking care of your child's oral health and visiting the dentist when necessary.

Untreated caries may lead to premature loss of baby teeth. In many cases, this causes unfavorable shifts of the permanent teeth, which means the appearance of malocclusions. This may consequently lead to the need for comprehensive orthodontic treatment. You can prevent this by deciding to register your child for a visit to our dental clinic.

GREAT ATMOSPHERE
Before choosing a dentist for your child, it is worth paying attention to various amenities that allow you to create a great atmosphere, thanks to which your child will remember the visit to the office with pleasure. In Zakopianka, we have prepared a special corner for children with games, books and drawings, where your child will feel almost at home. It is worth mentioning that our team consists of empathetic people who are great at dealing with young patients. Therefore, a visit to Zakopianka is a guarantee that your child will never be afraid of seeing a dentist again.

Diagnostics

At Zakopianka, we are convinced that the effectiveness of treatment comes mainly from carefully performed diagnostics. Therefore, one of our basic goals was to create a private diagnostic center. Thanks to this, it is possible to perform all tests in one place, which saves you time and allows us to precisely plan the entire treatment. See for yourself what possibilities digital diagnostics offer in our professional dental clinic!

PANORAMIC X-ray
Taking a panoramic X-ray is extremely helpful because it allows the dentist to accurately assess the health of all teeth and periodontium. This is of great importance for the ability to precisely plan the entire treatment, so you can be sure that all problems in your oral cavity will be diagnosed. It is thanks to the panoramic X-ray that the doctor can recognize inflammation and caries foci at an early stage, thus avoiding the need to carry out complicated and therefore expensive treatment in the future.

CEPHALOMETRIC X-RAY
Orthodontic treatment requires very accurate diagnostics, because only thanks to it it is possible to solve all problems. Taking a cephalometric X-ray allows you to assess the profile and identify any dental abnormalities and bone shape. In this way, you can select the best treatment methods that will comprehensively solve all problems, which allows you to achieve excellent and dream results.

POINT X-RAY
In some cases, it is necessary to obtain a precise photo of a small area in the mouth. For this purpose, spot X-ray is used, which is an indispensable examination when planning root canal treatment. The use of this device also enables the diagnosis of carious lesions that are invisible during standard inspection. Spot X-ray is also used before performing an extraction procedure.

INTRAORAL CAMERA
This is an innovative device that allows accurate diagnosis of all problems occurring in the oral cavity. During the examination, the image is constantly displayed on the monitor screen, so you can also check your teeth. The undoubted advantage of the intraoral camera is the ability to obtain a significant zoom, which increases the effectiveness of the examination and thus helps the doctor propose appropriate treatment methods.

INTRAORAL SCANNER
Traditionally, an impression must be made before making a prosthetic reconstruction. This process is uncomfortable for many patients, so we decided to equip our private diagnostic center with an intraoral scanner. This device performs precise scans, which are then transferred to the prosthetic laboratory. In this way, we significantly increase the effectiveness of the treatment and the results obtained meet all expectations. You can see this for yourself by visiting our professional dental clinic.

Dental crowns and bridges

There are various unforeseen situations in life, and some of them can lead to serious dental problems. One of the biggest problems is the loss of a tooth or teeth due to an accident. The cause may also be neglect of oral hygiene or the susceptibility of teeth to loss. These problems result in a significant deterioration of the quality of life. The feeling of shame and the loss of full functionality in the mouth mean that a smile rarely appears on the face. Fortunately, modern dentistry has effective solutions that allow you to aesthetically reconstruct lost teeth. Your life can positively change today! Don't hesitate any longer and make an appointment at a professional dentist's office.

WHAT DO YOU NEED TO KNOW ABOUT PROSTHETIC CROWNS AND BRIDGES?
One way to reconstruct a lost single tooth is to use a prosthetic crown. It can be attached to the implant or the remaining part of the tooth. It is worth emphasizing that in the first case it is necessary to perform implantological treatment first, which involves implanting an implant, i.e. a small titanium element, in the place of the lost root. In this way, the lost tooth is aesthetically and functionally restored, allowing you to enjoy a beautiful smile in a relatively short time.

A single gap can also be masked using a prosthetic bridge. In this case, it is mounted on healthy teeth that have been previously ground. However, bridges are used primarily when several missing teeth appear next to each other. In such a situation, it is possible to attach the prosthetic reconstruction to healthy teeth or two implants. The entire treatment process ends with a sincere and wide new smile that brightens your face!

PROSTHETIC CROWNS
An unfortunate accident can happen to anyone. It may result in serious damage to a single tooth, which requires a quick response. The problem sometimes also arises as a result of negligence, which causes the appearance of serious carious lesions. In such a case, it is necessary to attach a prosthetic crown. First, treatment and thorough cleaning of the remaining part of the tooth is carried out. Then, after the crown is made in the prosthetic laboratory, it is possible to attach the reconstruction using special dental cement. Thanks to this, the tooth is aesthetically rebuilt and strengthened, which will allow you to enjoy a beautiful and full smile for a long time.

The same causes that lead to serious dental cavities can also be responsible for tooth loss. In order to reconstruct it, comprehensive treatment is necessary. The first stage is the implantation procedure, to which a special connector is then attached. It allows for stable and permanent attachment of the prosthetic crown. In this way, a lost tooth can be effectively and aesthetically restored.

WHAT PROSTHETIC CROWNS DO WE USE?
In our dental clinic, we offer various types of prosthetic reconstructions, thanks to which we can meet all expectations regarding treatment. We know how to effectively make your dream of a beautiful and healthy smile come true! In Zakopianka we attach:

all-ceramic crowns – it is a prosthetic restoration fully made of ceramics, which ensures high aesthetics and durability. Thanks to this solution, you will be able to enjoy a beautiful and healthy smile in a short time;

zirconium crowns – this is a solution for people who expect the highest durability. The material used to create this prosthetic reconstruction means that you will be able to enjoy the results for a long time.

PROSTHETIC BRIDGES
An alternative solution to a crown is a prosthetic bridge, which is then attached to the remaining teeth. At the beginning, it is necessary to grind healthy teeth, which become pillars, which allows for stable attachment of the reconstruction. To obtain lasting effects, special dental cement is used for this purpose.

If several missing teeth appear next to each other, two solutions are possible. One of them, just like in the case of a single gap, is to attach a prosthetic bridge to healthy teeth. However, this may turn out to be impossible. In such a case, it is necessary to carry out additional treatment, which involves the implantation of two implants. They become a kind of basis for the effective and aesthetic reconstruction of lost teeth. Special connectors are attached to the implants, thanks to which it is possible to attach a prosthetic bridge. It is worth adding that all treatments performed in our clinic are completely safe and painless. This is due to the anesthesia we use, which allows you to go through the entire process in complete comfort. After completing the treatment, you will finally be able to enjoy a beautiful and healthy smile.

ALL-CERAMIC BRIDGES
At Zakopianka, our goal is always to obtain the best results, which is why we use materials that provide stunning aesthetic effects. That is why we decided to use all-ceramic bridges, thanks to which it is possible to aesthetically reconstruct lost teeth and restore full functionality in the oral cavity. See for yourself how your life can change after treatment in our professional clinic.

TREATMENT STEP BY STEP
1. Each treatment in our clinic begins with in-depth diagnostics, which allows us to precisely recognize the problem and thus apply appropriate solutions. To achieve all this, we use a variety of diagnostic devices, which means that the tests can be performed in one place. During the consultation visit, we will also recognize your expectations regarding treatment, so we will be able to select appropriate methods that will bring excellent results.

2. The next stage involves implanting implants and then attaching special connectors to them, which allows for stable attachment of the prosthetic reconstruction. If there is no need for implant treatment, healthy teeth are ground and thus prepared for the final phase of reconstruction of lost teeth.

3. The final stage is attaching the prosthetic crown or bridge. If it meets all your expectations, it will be permanently attached, thanks to which the lost teeth will finally be reconstructed. After the treatment, you will be able to leave our clinic with a broad and beautiful smile.

Orthodontics

Are crooked teeth a reason for feeling ashamed? Or maybe malocclusion is associated with loss of functionality in the oral cavity? If you are also struggling with this problem, be sure to contact our clinic, where comprehensive orthodontic treatment will be performed. See how your life can change.

WHAT DO YOU NEED TO KNOW ABOUT ORTHODONTICS?
Diagnosis and treatment of malocclusions and other irregularities are the focus of orthodontics. In order to solve problems in the oral cavity, it is necessary to use orthodontic appliances. Our dental clinic uses not only traditional methods, but also innovative methods of restoring the proper bite, including invisible Invisalign overlays. This solution is extremely effective and allows you to shorten the entire treatment process by up to several months. Thanks to Invisalign invisible overlays, mental comfort is also significantly increased, as our many satisfied patients confirm.

Modern orthodontics is based on digital diagnostics. In our clinic, we also use innovative methods that can significantly increase the precision and effectiveness of tests. At Zakopianka, we perform scans with an intraoral scanner, thanks to which we can achieve the desired and expected results, as well as increase comfort, so that the time spent in the office will undoubtedly be remembered with pleasure.

TAKE CARE OF YOUR HEALTH AND DECIDE FOR ORTHODONTIC TREATMENT!
Incorrect positioning of the teeth in the dental arch or incorrect relationship of the upper dental arch to the lower dental arch are the source of serious problems. One of them, of course, is the deterioration of facial aesthetics, which may shake your self-confidence and cause you to withdraw from social life. Of course, these are not the only negative consequences. Malocclusion may be a source of headaches, neck or spine pain, which is caused by inappropriate distribution of forces in the oral cavity. It turns out that orthodontic problems may also cause difficulties in eating certain foods, as well as speech defects. All this makes it so important to undergo orthodontic treatment, which allows you to positively influence the quality of your life, thanks to which the smile will never leave your face.

You may be wondering how to effectively solve the problem of malocclusion. Nowadays, in addition to traditional orthodontic braces, invisible Invisalign overlays are also used. Comprehensive orthodontic treatment allows you to restore the optimal position of your teeth, which not only improves the aesthetics of your smile, but also restores functionality in the oral cavity. See for yourself and see how your life can completely change!

TYPES OF ORTHODONTIC APPLIANCES
At Zakopianka, we use various methods that allow us to effectively solve the problem of malocclusion and restore full functionality in the oral cavity.

Fixed orthodontic appliances – this is a traditional solution that is very often chosen. A permanently attached brace consists of several elements: brackets, rings, archwires and ligatures. Brackets are glued to the surface of the teeth, while rings, which are anchoring parts, are attached to the molars. The forces generated by the archwires restore the teeth to their optimal position, which effectively eliminates the problem of malocclusion. It is also worth adding that ligatures are special rubber bands whose color you can adjust to your preferences.

Removable orthodontic appliances – this method is used primarily in the treatment of children who have primary and permanent teeth. Putting on this brace is extremely simple. The child should wear them at night and for a few hours during the day. The use of this method allows you to effectively remove early malocclusions, thus preventing the need for complicated orthodontic treatment in the future.

Invisalign invisible aligners – this is an innovative solution that makes the entire treatment process extremely comfortable. This is because these braces are made of a special material that makes the overlays almost invisible to the surroundings. We want each stage of treatment to be extremely comfortable, so instead of traditional impressions, we perform scans with an intraoral scanner, which significantly increases comfort. Invisible overlays should only be removed when eating and for hygiene purposes. Invisalign can, in many cases, shorten the treatment time by up to several months.

X-ray

At the Zakopianka Dental Center, we have a radiological laboratory equipped with the highest quality and latest generation X-ray equipment, which allows immediate receipt of test results in complete patient safety. Thanks to this, we are able to quickly and very precisely obtain key information that will influence the treatment schedule.

The photos are taken using the highest quality digital technology by a radiology technician.
