Early Cavity Detection

Get Early Cavity Detection

Finding cavities in their earliest stages can not only save your tooth and the eventual tooth pain that comes with a cavity, but it can also lead to some cavities being reversed! Dentists at Charisma Dental have a treatment that can reverse cavities in stage 1.

Stage 1 Cavities

Stage 1 cavities haven’t yet worked through the enamel. They are merely a spot on the tooth’s surface. That means they can be reversed with a fluoride treatment.
This is the only stage where a cavity can be reversed, making it important to find them as early as possible.

Early Cavity Detection Allows More Options

Getting cavities found early means you can get less invasive procedures to correct them. That may make the difference in getting a filling versus a root canal. Cavities only worsen with time so early detection will save you a lot of pain and hassle.

It Saves Money

Having an early detection of cavities also saves money because less invasive procedures cost less. Being able to reverse a cavity is a cost-saving in the long run. the money you could save with regular exams over time could be in the thousands.
