In fact, a cavity is a dissolved part of the tooth enamel. This exposes the underlying dentin. Do you have a hole in your tooth or molar? It is important to have a cavity treated as soon as possible. This way you prevent major complications from occurring. Would you like to have a hole in your tooth or molar filled? Then contact us. Our experienced dentists are happy to help you.<\/span><\/p>\n<div class=\"information\"><a class=\"btn icon-phone\" href=\"tel:(020)3455345\">(020) 345 5345<\/a><a class=\"btn-outline\" href=\"https:\/\/www.tandartsenpraktijkcarmenlaan.nl\/contact\/\">Contact<\/a><a class=\"btn-outline\" href=\"https:\/\/www.tandartsenpraktijkcarmenlaan.nl\/en\/register\/\">Register now<\/a><\/div>\n<h2 id=\"tw-target-text\" class=\"tw-data-text tw-text-large XcVN5d tw-ta\" dir=\"ltr\" data-placeholder=\"Vertaling\"><span lang=\"en\">How does a cavity occur in the tooth?<\/span><\/h2>\n<p id=\"tw-target-text\" class=\"tw-data-text tw-text-large XcVN5d tw-ta\" dir=\"ltr\" data-placeholder=\"Vertaling\"><span lang=\"en\">Our saliva is full of bacteria. When food is added, these bacteria turn the food waste into acid. This acid is harmful to our teeth and can &#8220;bite&#8221; through the enamel. That way, holes are created in our teeth. If the oral hygiene is not good and the teeth are not cleaned properly, this can lead to the cavity getting deeper or larger and the dentine to be affected. This can have major consequences. Once a hole has developed in the tooth, it is impossible to reverse this process naturally. To prevent the hole from enlarging or causing complications, it is necessary to have the hole filled by a dentist.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2>Causes cavities<\/h2>\n<p id=\"tw-target-text\" class=\"tw-data-text tw-text-large XcVN5d tw-ta\" dir=\"ltr\" data-placeholder=\"Vertaling\"><span lang=\"en\">Cavities can be caused by:<\/span><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Dental plaque: the bacteria in your dental plaque attack the teeth and molars, which can cause cavities.<\/li>\n<li>Poor oral hygiene: if you don&#8217;t brush your teeth properly, more and more plaque builds up on and between your teeth.<\/li>\n<li>Eating and drinking starchy or sweet foods: this promotes plaque build-up. Reduced saliva: Reduced saliva can be caused by, among other things, medication use.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h2 id=\"tw-target-text\" class=\"tw-data-text tw-text-large XcVN5d tw-ta\" dir=\"ltr\" data-placeholder=\"Vertaling\"><span lang=\"en\">Symptoms cavity<\/span><\/h2>\n<p id=\"tw-target-text\" class=\"tw-data-text tw-text-large XcVN5d tw-ta\" dir=\"ltr\" data-placeholder=\"Vertaling\"><span lang=\"en\">It is estimated that 95% of the world&#8217;s population will have to deal with cavities. Many people also do not realize that they are dealing with dental caries. This is because cavities are often not visible at first. A cavity often starts with a dark or white spot on the teeth or molars. In the early stages, a hole is painless in most cases. However, when the caries worsens, the teeth can become sensitive. For example, you will likely find yourself bothered by eating or drinking hot or cold foods or drinks. Do you suffer from sensitive teeth or a toothache? Then contact your dentist as soon as possible. He or she can determine the cause and draw up a personal treatment plan for you.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2 id=\"tw-target-text\" class=\"tw-data-text tw-text-large XcVN5d tw-ta\" dir=\"ltr\" data-placeholder=\"Vertaling\"><span lang=\"en\">Fill a hole at the dentist<\/span><\/h2>\n<p id=\"tw-target-text\" class=\"tw-data-text tw-text-large XcVN5d tw-ta\" dir=\"ltr\" data-placeholder=\"Vertaling\"><span lang=\"en\">Filling a hole is done as follows:<\/span><\/p>\n<ol>\n<li>\n<p id=\"tw-target-text\" class=\"tw-data-text tw-text-large XcVN5d tw-ta\" dir=\"ltr\" data-placeholder=\"Vertaling\"><span lang=\"en\">Drying the tooth or molar: the dentist places a clip around your tooth or molar and places a rubber cloth around it. We also call this the &#8220;drying out&#8221; of the tooth. Drying ensures that no saliva reaches the tooth during drilling.<\/span><\/p>\n<\/li>\n<li>\n<p id=\"tw-target-text\" class=\"tw-data-text tw-text-large XcVN5d tw-ta\" dir=\"ltr\" data-placeholder=\"Vertaling\"><span lang=\"en\">Drilling: The dentist will drill away the affected area of \u200b\u200byour tooth enamel using a small drill. Then he removes the affected dentin with a soft drill.<\/span><\/p>\n<\/li>\n<li>\n<p id=\"tw-target-text\" class=\"tw-data-text tw-text-large XcVN5d tw-ta\" dir=\"ltr\" data-placeholder=\"Vertaling\"><span lang=\"en\">Filling: the dentist fills the hole with composite, after a special glue has been applied to the tooth.<\/span><\/p>\n<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<h2>Prevent caries<\/h2>\n<p id=\"tw-target-text\" class=\"tw-data-text tw-text-large XcVN5d tw-ta\" dir=\"ltr\" data-placeholder=\"Vertaling\"><span lang=\"en\">Good oral care is the basis for healthy teeth.
