Below you may find information about the treatments and techniques that are used at Odomed Dental Clinic.

- Dental Implants - are suitable for patients with one or more missing teeth and involve placing an artificial dental root into your gum, that will be covered with a permanent crown once the gum is healed.
If the tooth has been lost a long time ago, then it will be necessary to perform bone grafting.

- Cosmetic Dentistry - is a treatment that aims to improve the color, size, position, and other unaesthetic characteristics of your teeth, and make your smile more appealing.
To modify the aspect of your teeth, the doctors will use such materials as
resins, veneers, inlays-onlays, and porcelain crowns.

- Oral Surgery - is the field of dentistry that aims to correct problems related to the third molars, deficiency in size of the teeth, position, and stability of the oral mucosa, tongue, gums, bone, or teeth that are not within normal functionality parameters.

- Oral Pathology - is the specialty that identifies and treats any type of injury or disease of the oral cavity. Before the treatment, it will be required to undergo a procedure that is called "biopsy", to identify the underlying disease.

- Teeth Whitening - is a treatment that aims to retrieve the glitter of your smile. For teeth whitening, doctors use a system with two simultaneous light emissions that allow having excellent results without dental sensitivity.

- Root canal therapy, also known as endodontic treatment, involves removing the damaged pulp tissue from the affected tooth and covering the canal space with a special filling material.

3. Multirooted endodontic treatment is carried out on a tooth that has two or more roots and therefore several pulp canals.
