Conservative Dentistry

Conservative Dentistry focuses on the prevention, diagnosis, and treatment of dental issues with an emphasis on preserving the natural structure of the teeth. The goal of conservative dentistry is to restore damaged or decayed teeth in a way that minimizes the loss of tooth structure, often using non-invasive methods. It involves techniques like fillings, root canal therapy, bonding, and sealants to repair or restore teeth while maintaining their natural appearance and functionality. This branch of dentistry prioritizes preservation over extraction, aiming to keep as much of the healthy tooth as possible, and is a key component of preventive care. Conservative dentistry also includes regular check-ups and cleanings to detect issues early, preventing the need for more extensive treatments like crowns or extractions.
