During your initial consultation, our dentists carry out an oral examination supplemented by X-rays. This allows us to assess the extent of the cavity and recommend the treatment plan best suited to your needs.
Early, personalised cavity treatment helps preserve your teeth
At Cabinet Dentaire de la Madeleine, we do everything we can to preserve the integrity of your teeth and help you maintain a healthy smile for years to come. Dental cavities are common, but prompt
treatment can prevent more serious problems. Our team uses advanced techniques to provide minimally invasive, effective and personalised care.
A dental cavity is an infection caused by bacteria that convert sugars into acid. This acid attacks the enamel, the tooth's protective outer layer, and then the dentine. If left untreated, the cavity progresses to the dental pulp at the centre of the tooth, causing pain and infection and potentially leading to tooth loss.

At Cabinet Dentaire de la Madeleine, we always favour the least invasive solutions to preserve as much of your tooth's natural structure as possible.

During your initial consultation, our dentists carry out an oral examination supplemented by X-rays. This allows us to assess the extent of the cavity and recommend the treatment plan best suited to your needs.
The type of treatment will depend on the depth and extent of the cavity.
This treatment is suitable for a cavity that has affected only the enamel and dentine, without reaching the pulp. We remove the decayed part of the tooth and restore it with durable, natural-looking materials that blend seamlessly with the colour of your teeth.
When the cavity is more advanced and has reached the tooth's pulp, root canal treatment is required. This procedure removes the infected pulp tissue to prevent severe infection, intense pain and necrosis. The tooth may be weakened after root canal treatment. To protect it and restore full function, we may recommend a dental crown, a strong and natural-looking solution.
When a cavity is too advanced and the tooth can no longer be saved, extraction may be the only way to protect your oral health. Our dentists will then advise you on the best replacement options, such as dental implants, to restore the appearance and function of your smile.

Cavity treatments are generally painless.
Treatment for a simple cavity generally takes around 30 minutes, depending on its size and complexity.
After treatment, you should avoid eating until the anaesthetic has worn off. Follow your dentist's advice on oral hygiene and any temporary dietary restrictions.
Yes, a new cavity can develop on the same tooth or another tooth if good oral hygiene is not maintained and risk factors persist. This is why prevention and regular check-ups are strongly recommended.
