Dental treatment during pregnancy is an important part of maintaining the health of both the expectant mother and the baby. Most preventive procedures, such as professional cleaning and check-ups, are safe. The optimal time for treatment is the second trimester, when cavities and inflammations can be addressed. Surgical procedures and X-rays are contraindicated except in emergency cases. Timely visits to the dentist help prevent complications and maintain oral health throughout pregnancy.

Root canal treatment is aimed at preserving the natural tooth in cases of pulp inflammation. The procedure is performed under local anesthesia and involves removing the affected tissues, cleaning, and sealing the canals. Modern technologies and X-ray monitoring allow for effective pain relief and long-term preservation of the tooth, preventing its complete destruction and extraction.

The structure of a tooth is a complex system consisting of enamel, dentin, pulp, root, and cement, each performing its own important function. Teeth not only enable chewing but also play a key role in overall health. Proper dental care helps maintain their strength, protection, and beauty for many years.
