At Kakaris Family Dentistry, we pride ourselves in prioritizing and preserving as much as your natural tooth structure as possible. Every time there is a tooth with a cavity, we are faced with having to “wait and watch” if the filling is small, or remove the decayed portion of the tooth and put a filling in it’s place.
For teeth with early cavities, we are proud to now offer a biomimetic, non-invasive treatment at Kakaris Family Dentistry called Curodont™. It’s a truly pain-free, no-drill option that empowers eligible patients to actually repair and restore their natural tooth structure with a quick and easy application in office.

Before your dentist recommends Curodont™ for you, they will verify that your cavities are eligible to benefit from the treatment. Cavities that have advanced more than just the surface of your enamel and into your dentin (the inner layer of the tooth) are not proven to benefit from Curodont™ treatment.
At your Curodont™ treatment appointment, your dentist will lightly exfoliate the surface to be treated, then apply the Curodont™ solution to your tooth. The whole treatment process takes about 5-10 minutes.
Avoid rinsing, eating or drinking for 30 minutes after your treatment. be sure to continue practicing thorough daily oral care and minimize the duration of your sugar intake.
At your next routine care visit, we will take x-rays to review the progress and remineralization of your enamel. After reviewing your x-rays, your dentist may recommend a second Curodont™ application or let you know your treatment has been completed.
