Dr. Tarsys Loayza Roys, from the Sonrisa Perfecta Dental spa clinic, reported that they are very attentive to an innovative anti-cavity treatment from London. The developers of this discovery claim that the treatment allows patients to reverse damage to their teeth by regenerating them naturally.
Thanks to the stimulation of dental regeneration, the use of cement to fill cavities left by cavities seems to have its days numbered. The studies are being carried out by the Kings College laboratory and according to the scientists in charge, they are already in the final phase.
What does the new anti-cavity treatment consist of?
The new anti-cavity treatment involves a novel approach to treatment. Dr. Tarsys Loayza Roys explains that it is a procedure that has been in the works for almost a decade. The first time the Kings College development team spoke publicly about it was in 2017.
It is a therapy that improves the tooth’s ability to regenerate itself by activating the stem cells inside them. How do they do this? Thanks to an ointment whose formula is that of a drug used to treat Alzheimer’s and which is applied directly to the damaged tooth. The chemicals present in the formula stimulate the production of dentin.
Normally, dentin is produced inside the teeth to repair small fissures or cracks that can arise under the enamel. What the drug does is enhance this natural ability so that the tooth repairs larger fissures or damage caused by cavities. Scientists claim that a small amount of the drug is able to regenerate the tooth naturally in a matter of weeks.
In this way, the need for dental cement is reduced or eliminated and all the negative consequences of this element are avoided. Dr. Tarsys Loayza Roys recalled that dental cement can crack over time and allow the passage of bacteria that will generate new cavities. This situation ends up weakening the healthy part of the tooth causing, if not treated in time, the total loss of the piece.
A sponge instead of cement in the new anti-cavity treatment
The use of the ointment is complemented by the placement of a sponge inside the cavity created by the cavity. This sponge is actually an organic element that serves to cultivate the new dentin and accelerate the regeneration process. This element would replace the dental cement that is usually used in the traditional technique to close cavities.
The new anti-cavity treatment completely changes the perspective of care for this pathology that affects a large part of the population. Between 60% and 90% of children and almost 100% of adults have cavities. These data from the World Health Organization (WHO) speak of a real public health problem due to the implications it has.
Recent research known to the Sonrisa Perfecta Dental spa clinic reveals that cavities are related to other pathologies. It has been linked to heart diseases and even to different forms of cancer. In both cases it has been detected that the lesions caused in the oral cavity allow the passage of bacteria. These travel through the bloodstream to different areas of the body, thus generating diseases that can even compromise life.
A significant advance in anti-cavity treatment
One of the premises of the team headed by Dr. Tarsys Loayza Roys at the Sonrisa Perfecta Dental clinic is to be up to date with treatments. That is why this specialized center has been a pioneer in the use of resources such as laser, UV and LED rays for whitening. They have also been the first to use digital imaging for the detection and diagnosis of dental pathologies.
More recently, Sonrisa Perfecta Dental has incorporated conscious sedation with nitrous oxide into its portfolio, substantially improving the patient’s experience in the consultation. The general manager of this spa-type clinic is always aware of the advances and research around the world. For the professional, the goal has always been to make available to patients the best and most innovative available on the market.
