# Common Dental Disease and Their Treatment

Hypersensitivity of teeth if your teeth hurts or becomes sensitive to hot and cold food, consult your dentist. This condition results due to wearing away enamel. Various medicated toothpastes are available for the milder form of the disease while more severe conditions may require a GIC filling for a permanent remission.
Carious cavity and filling-the most obvious signs of caries visible to you are the presence of a definite cavity, brown stains and black stains. A filling must be done to restore the damaged portion and remove the decayed teeth structure. The filling material can either be silver amalgam or a tooth colour restorative.
Pyorrhea (gingivitis and periodontitis) and Scaling-dental stone or tartar (scientifically known as calculus) deposits form at the junction of teeth and gums giving rise to a disease known commonly as pyorrhoea. This disease is characterized by Bad breath, bleeding gums, pain and sensitivity. The treatment involves a procedure known as scaling. In this simple and relatively painless procedure the calculus deposits are removed every six months to 1 year. Continuous untreated. Deposition of calculus leads to pyorrhea, scientifically known as gingivitis. Gingivitis is a bacterial infection of the gums aided mainly by calculus. The gingivitis shall eventually evolve into periodontitis which is a more severe form of the disease involving the tooth root and bone. The fate of such teeth is an ever increasing mobility and pain and eventual shedding. Ultrasonic scaling is a modern procedure adopted to remove heavy deposits of calculus. Scaling is a painless procedure and requires 1 to 3 sitting to perform. This treatment not only ensures a disease free gum but also gives your teeth a long life. A prevalent wrong notion about scaling is that it leads to opening of gaps between teeth and causes tooth mobility, which certainly is wrong to assume.
