Restorative dentistry treatments are necessary when the natural tooth has deteriorated, cracked or become damaged. Restorative dentistry is also used to completely transform the appearance of a smile by changing the shade, shape, and size of teeth. Our dental team has a number of options available to treat nearly every dental situation.
Dental Bridges and Crowns
A dental bridge fills up a space left by one or more missing teeth. A bridge uses one or more crowns affixed to the teeth adjacent the empty space. The abutting teeth in a dental bridge are called crowns, and the faux teeth are called pontics. Pontics are normally constructed to seem like natural teeth. Dental bridges may be made from an alloy metal, porcelain, gold, or a composite mix of other FDA-approved dental materials.
Crowns are a form of restorative dentistry that completely encases the visible portion of a tooth. As a result, dental crowns are also commonly referred to as dental caps. The technique entails preserving a portion of your original tooth while enhancing its appearance with a dental crown to make it appear virtually flawless. Inlays and onlays are different from dental crowns since they simply cover the top surface of the tooth and/or the inside of the tooth.
Dental Bonding
Dental bonding is a restorative procedure that is used to repair teeth that have been chipped. Dental bonding is used for both aesthetic and restorative purposes. Surprisingly, dental bonding, takes very little time at the dentist’s office to accomplish. The results are very impressive and can last for decades with the proper care.
Dental Veneers
Porcelain veneers aren’t just for celebrities and public figures. Porcelain veneers have become so popular as a cosmetic dental procedure that chances are you know someone who has them. They appear so natural that you’re unlikely to notice if your neighbor, boss, or friend even has them. The nicest part about porcelain veneers is that they are a painless and a non-invasive procedure but they do require a little more time in the dentist’s chair.
Dental Implants
Dental implants are one of the most breakthrough restorative dentistry treatments available. Dental implants have been around for long enough to prove their worth as a long-term replacement for lost teeth. It is impossible to overestimate the value of dental implants as an option for improved esthetics and functionality for your smile.
