Zabalegui Dental Clinic
Specialists in conservative dentistry in Bilbao
At our dental clinic in Bilbao, we specialise in conservative dentistry to preserve and care for our patients’ natural teeth. Our main goal is to keep teeth in optimal condition within the oral cavity. We use advanced conservative dentistry techniques, such as dental fillings and root canal treatment, to effectively treat cavities, fractures, infections and other dental conditions.
Our priority is to avoid tooth extraction whenever possible, focusing on the treatment and restoration of damaged teeth. We work to ensure that teeth remain functional and healthy, providing our patients with a beautiful and fully functional smile.
Dentist dental filling Bilbao
Both fillings and root canal treatment are common procedures in conservative dentistry. Dental fillings are used to treat cavities and restore damaged tooth structure. During this procedure, the cavity is removed and the cavity is filled with a suitable material to restore the functionality and appearance of the tooth.
Endodontics dental clinic Bilbao
On the other hand, endodontics is a treatment used when decay or injury has reached the dental pulp, where the nerves and blood vessels of the tooth are located. This procedure involves removing the infected or damaged pulp, cleaning and sealing the root canals, and finally restoring the tooth with a crown or filling.
Conservative dentistry treatments
Dental fillings
It is a commonly used procedure to remove a cavity infection in a tooth and restore its functionality. It is a painless and relatively simple procedure in which the cavity is removed and the resulting cavity is filled with a suitable dental material. This helps prevent the progression of the cavity, restore the tooth structure, and return normal chewing function to the affected tooth.
Dental reconstructions
These are dental treatments used to repair or replace damaged or lost teeth, restoring their shape, function and appearance. These treatments may include a variety of techniques and materials, depending on the nature and extent of the dental injury.
Endodontics - Root canal treatment
It is a treatment performed to preserve the tooth and prevent the spread of infection or inflammation through it, by removing the damaged dental pulp (internal tissue of the tooth containing nerves and blood vessels) and filling the root canal. This treatment may be necessary when the dental pulp is affected due to advanced decay, a tooth fracture, or a traumatic injury, and it is essential to have a dentist who specialises in endodontics.
Composite or porcelain inlays
They are a type of dental reconstruction used to repair broken or worn teeth, or simply to improve their aesthetic appearance. They consist of thin sheets, most commonly made of composite or ceramic, which are bonded directly to the surface of the tooth and mimic the shape and colour of natural teeth.
