Stop tooth decay in its tracks
Tooth decay is one of the most common dental issues, affecting people of all ages. At Dental Design of Wheaton, we help protect and restore your smile with effective, compassionate care. Whether you’re dealing with early signs of decay or more advanced concerns, our Wheaton dentist is here to treat cavities and guide you toward better oral health. Let us help you keep your smile strong, healthy, and vibrant!
What is tooth decay?
Tooth decay is the breakdown of your tooth’s enamel caused by harmful bacteria in your mouth. It often results from poor oral hygiene, a diet high in sugar, or a lack of regular dental care. If left untreated, tooth decay can lead to cavities, pain, and infections. Dr. Chopra focuses on preventing and treating tooth decay to restore and maintain your oral health.
Signs of tooth decay
- Persistent tooth sensitivity or pain
- Visible holes or pits in teeth
- Discoloration, including brown, black, or white spots
- Bad breath or a bad taste in your mouth
If you’re experiencing any of these symptoms, contact us for an evaluation!
How we treat tooth decay
Preventive Care
We emphasize the importance of regular cleanings and exams to catch early signs of decay and prevent it from worsening.
Dental Sealants
Sealants are a protective coating applied to the grooves of your molars, creating a barrier against cavity-causing bacteria — ideal for kids, teens, and adults with deep grooves.
Dental Fillings
If cavities have formed, we use tooth-colored composite fillings to restore the structure and appearance of your teeth.
Crowns
For teeth with severe decay or structural damage, we provide durable dental crowns to protect and strengthen the tooth while restoring its natural appearance.
Why prioritize tooth decay treatment?
Ignoring tooth decay can lead to:
- Increased pain and discomfort
- Tooth loss
- Gum disease
- Spread of infection
Taking action early can save your natural teeth and keep your smile healthy for years!
