【Dr. Chen Talks About Teeth and Oral Cavity: The Pros and Cons of Operative Dentistry and Endodontics. 】
The picture shows a young male cat who came to our hospital for dental restoration after fracturing his tooth, and he looks very charming.
In our dental restoration procedure, two types of resin are used for shaping, and the restoration is sculpted to mimic the surface pattern of the original tooth. This meticulous process aims to closely replicate the natural bite, enhancing the animal's comfort and reducing the likelihood of detachment.
Dental restoration, commonly known as "operative dentistry" (OD)
【Pros】：
1.Lighter financial burden for treatment
2.Shorter dental procedure duration
【Cons】：
1.Higher risk of post-treatment pulpitis
2.Potential pain caused by pulpitis
3.Possibility of detachment of restoration materials (resin, etc.)
Root canal treatment, commonly known as "endodontics (ENDO)"
【Pros】：
1.Effective cleaning and disinfection of dental pulp
2.Prevention of recurrent pulpitis in the future
3. Better pain relief
【Cons】：
1.Higher financial burden for treatment
2.Difficulty in cleaning the gap at the junction of the crown and gingiva
無Whether choosing OD or ENDO, both involve a certain cost, and postoperatively, it is crucial to pay extra attention to dental hygiene to prevent gingival inflammation. The most cost-effective approach remains the age-old saying: "Prevention is better than cure." Avoid letting animals chew on excessively hard food, brush their teeth daily, undergo regular dental cleanings and comprehensive examinations, and establish good oral health habits.
