Dentist Highlands Ranch Remineralization of a cavity (303) 694-9740


Dentist Highlands Ranch

Our Highlands Ranch dentist Dr. James DeLapp and Dr. H. Candace DeLapp have been using MI paste with the belief that it has the potential to re-mineralize dental cavities. The idea is as a cavity develops it looses the calcium crystals that form the fabric of the enamel.

Dentist Highlands Ranch and fluoride and calcium

One of several patients who displayed early signs of a cavity was treated this last six months with MI paste. Comparing the radiography from 6 months taken earlier our Highlands Ranch dentist found significant re -mineralization of the two (2) observed lesions.

Continual management and monitoring Dentist Highlands Ranch

Even though the lesion "appears" to be resolving this area and other areas treated need to be monitored on a yearly basis. Small initial lesions "appear" at this time to be treatable with calcium and fluoride mixtures. Once the lesion is of significant size a dental filling is most likely the only treatment available.
