Common Questions
What is Atraumatic Restorative Treatment (ART)?
ART is a minimally invasive dental procedure that removes tooth decay using hand instruments and restores the tooth with a tooth-colored filling material, helping preserve healthy tooth structure.
Does ART require drilling?
In many cases, no. ART is designed to remove decayed tooth material using specialized hand instruments, making it a more comfortable alternative to traditional drilling for suitable cavities.
Is ART painful?
Most patients experience little to no discomfort during ART. Because the procedure is gentle and minimally invasive, local anesthetic may not be required in some cases.
Who is a good candidate for ART?
ART is often recommended for children, seniors, anxious patients, and individuals with small to moderate cavities where a minimally invasive treatment approach is appropriate.
How long does an ART restoration last?
The longevity of an ART restoration depends on factors such as the size and location of the cavity, oral hygiene habits, and regular dental visits. With proper care, ART restorations can provide long-lasting protection and function.
