Causes of pathology
Caries is the destruction of hard tooth tissues, which is accompanied by the formation of a cavity defect. Translated from Latin, the term means “rotting.”
In the mechanism of development of the carious process, pathological changes in the body are important. The following factors contribute to the occurrence of the disease:
- Insufficient oral hygiene
- Heredity
- Poor nutrition, deficiency of vitamins, calcium, microelements
- Eating large amounts of carbohydrates
- Diseases of the digestive system
- Metabolic disorder
- Decreased immunity
- Bad habits
- Immunodeficiency conditions
Due to the negative impact on the enamel, plaque is formed, which causes caries. Local reasons include changes in the composition and quantity of saliva, the condition of the pulp, etc.
Unfavorable environmental conditions and poor quality of drinking water reduce the body's resistance and create conditions for the occurrence of a pathological process.
The initial stage of caries is demineralization of the enamel, i.e. tissue loss of minerals. The activity of microorganisms depends on the state of the immune system and the individual characteristics of the organism.
General information about caries treatment
Diagnostics of caries
The patient’s complaints and subjective feelings help determine the depth of the existing disorders.
Diagnostic measures include:
- Visual examination of the oral cavity
- Percussion, i.e. Tapping on the surface of the tooth makes it possible to assess the localization and nature of pain, irradiation, and identify the presence of seals
- Probing
- Thermal test - the most accessible and informative method
- Sighted radiography, etc.
Early diagnosis contributes to timely initiation of therapy and a favorable outcome of the disease.
Symptoms and stages of the disease
In most cases, the carious process develops gradually. The first signs are discomfort and discomfort during meals. Further progression of the pathology leads to an increase in clinical symptoms.
During the pathological process, several stages are distinguished:
The lack of effective therapy is fraught with the development of complications. With pulpitis, the pathological process extends to the pulp, affects the neurovascular bundle and is accompanied by severe pain, especially in the evening. Damage to the bone tissues surrounding the tooth causes periodontitis, which is manifested by pronounced symptoms: swelling of the gums, sharp throbbing pain, and elevated body temperature.
