Many people come in due to pain, sensitivity to cold, or a dark spot on the tooth: behind it there's usually decay (caries), a progressive breakdown of the enamel and dentin caused by bacteria and acids. Treatment consists of removing the damaged tissue and restoring the tooth.

When is it indicated? When a cavity is detected during a checkup or when symptoms appear. Treated in time, it prevents the lesion from advancing toward the pulp of the tooth.

Which specialist performs it? The dentist resolves most cases; if the decay affects the nerve, an endodontist (root canal specialist) gets involved. It's best for a dentist to examine the tooth to recommend the most conservative procedure.
