“Happy Dent” is one of the few dental clinics in Romania to offer complete dental services; general dentistry, cosmetic dentistry, endodontics, orthodontics, oral surgery, x-ray and an on-site dental laboratory.
Root canal treatment is necessary when the nerve is affected by a deep cavity or infection. Delaying treatment can lead to a dental abscess as well as unbearable pain. A succesful root canal prolongs the life of the tooth in the dental arch. X-rays before and after treatment are very important. The first scan is used in the diagnosis, while post-treatment x-rays monitor the evolution of the healing process. Complicated infections will be monitored by x-rays for a period of time post treatment, to track the long-term regeneration of damaged bone infection ( x-ray at 6 months, 1 year ).
Orthodontics (braces)
To resolve too much or too little space between teeth, as well as to straighten crooked teeth, we offer many orthodontic treatment options. Devices can be mobile or fixed, can be visible or less visible. There are also totally invisible orthodontic treatments that will align your teeth without anyone knowing that you are in orthodontic treatment. Your orthodontist will assess your situation, will answer all your questions, and together with you, choose the type of orthodontic appliance best suited to your needs.
The main cause of periodontal disease is by bacteria located in the space between the gum and the tooth surface. Bacteria growth, combined with poor quality tissue and an abnormal reaction of the body's defense system, leads to destruction of the gum tissue surrounding the tooth. This allows the bacteria to get in contact with the bone surrounding the teeth and in time, its reabsorption will cause the gum to recede from the root of the tooth. Eventually the tooth becomes mobile and may be lost. Periodontal disease is closely related to overall health, its evolution is influenced by smoking and a number of general conditions: cardiovascular disease, diabetes, obesity. With specialized treatment, the disease can be treated and stopped from progressing.
Nonsurgical Treatment: scaling and cleaning gingival sulcus, combined with local application of antiseptics and antibiotics.
Surgical treatment: Scaling is the cleaning of the parodontal pockets which cannot be reached otherwise.
Dental implants are the most effective way of replacing teeth and can do the following:
- Replaces the root of the missing tooth and thus prevents migration of neighboring teeth.
- Allows fixed prosthesis in situations where removable prostheses would be used.
- Stops bone atrophy(decrease in bone mass).
- Prevents gum retraction and bone resorption.
The treatment consists of two stages:
- Surgical stage: introduction of titanium dental implant, followed by a period of 2 months of implant osteointegration.
- Prosthetic stage: mounting the dental crown.
It is recommended that you visit your dentist for periodic controls every six months and for a professional cleaning at least once a year.
In this category are:
- tooth extractions: extraction of impacted wisdom teeth, or semi-impacted teeth
- apical resection: removal of dental apex (tip of the root), together with surrounding infected bone
- cystectomy: removal of cysts
- periapical scraping: Scraping the sides of the root
- subgingival scraping: Scraping beneath the gum line
- alveolar ridge augmentation
- gingival plastic surgery.
Dental prophylaxis is the first and most important stage of tooth care. Maintaining healthy teeth is done by brushing, flossing or using a dental jet, using mouthwash and regular visits to the dentist.
The Happy Dent team gladly educates pacients on oral hygiene.
In-office whitening
Through professional whitening treatment, up to 8 shades of whitening can be acheived. The ultraviolet light emitted by the lamp activates the peroxide, a substance that is found in the gel, and causes whitening. A session lasts 45 minutes.
Porcelain veneers
Porcelain veneers are very thin ceramic shells which are cemented on the external surface of the tooth. Veneers are recommended in the following situations: cracked or chipped teeth, teeth which are too short, front middle tooth gaps, unsightly stains.
Odontology deals with the treatment of dental cavities.
A cavity is a lesion that destroys the hard tissues of the tooth. Cavities can be detected at very early stages only by your dentist. Left untreated, tooth decay can lead to major tissue damage and even to the loss of the tooth. Dental caries can be prevented by brushing, flossing or by using a dental jet, as well as through regular dental checks and avoiding foods high in sugars. Treatment is performed under local anesthesia, using light-cured esthetic materials and the latest technology.
(crowns, bridges, partial and complete dentures)
The absence of a tooth or group of teeth leaves a vacancy on the arch and causes chewing disorders, esthetic and phonetic disturbances which can cause periodontal disease, as well as joint and digetive disorders. If a tooth presents too much tissue damage, then it will be covered with a dental crown to further withstand chewing pressure. If the tooth cannot be saved and is extracted, free space can be filled either by a prosthetic dental bridge or with a dental implant.
The Happy Dent team of doctors do the following prosthetic treatments:
- Crowns and porcelain fused to metal dental bridges
- Full ceramic dental crowns and bridges
- Porcelain fused to zirconium crowns and bridges
- Dental Crowns and bridges from noble metals
- Porcelain veneers
- Skeletal dentures with classical or special systems
- Dentures and bridges on implants
- Removable dentures
Why choose supported zirconium crowns?
The advantages of zirconia:
- Superior Aesthetics: light passes through the tooth as it would through a natural tooth
- Completely biocompatible, does not cause allergies
- Little affinity to dental plaque
- Very durable and light-weight material
