Filling therapy: If destruction requiring treatment is diagnosed by the caries, fillings are the means of choice for small defects. There are various filling materials, about which the attending dentist will be happy to advise at the beginning of treatment. (eg amalgam, composite, cements, etc.).
Prosthetic restorations: If the destruction is already more extensive, teeth are restored with inlays, partial crowns or crowns, depending on the size of the defect. If the affected tooth is no longer worthy of preservation, it must be removed and the now existing gap closed (bridge, implant).
Nutritional counseling based on nutritional analysis
Nutritional recommendations according to a mixed diet taking into account the disease at hand. This means, among other things:
A total of 5 servings of fresh vegetables and fruit daily (≥ 400 g; 3 servings of vegetables and 2 servings of fruit).
Once or twice a week fresh sea fish, i.e. fatty marine fish (omega-3 fatty acids) such as salmon, herring, mackerel.
High-fiber diet (whole grains, vegetables) – fiber contributes to mechanical cleaning of teeth, as well as increased saliva flow through increased chewing activity.

Some foods are believed to have a protective effect against tooth decay. Cheese and milk contain calcium, phosphate and casein, a milk protein that protects against demineralization of the tooth.
