Restorative Dentistry

“Restorative dentistry” is the term dental professionals use to explain how they replace missing or damaged teeth. Fillings, crowns, bridges and implants are common restorative options. The goal is to bring back your natural smile and prevent future oral health issues.

Bonding

Dental bonding is used for many reasons, including the repair of chipped, broken or decayed teeth, to reshape or whiten your smile, or to fill in gaps between the teeth. Bonding can also be used to attach bridges, orthodontic appliances or fillings to the teeth.

First, a soft composite resin filling is scooped onto the teeth, and the dentist shapes it.  A high intensity light is then applied to the resin, which hardens the material. Finally, the dentist polishes the surface to obtain natural looking appearance that blends with the tooth.

Dental Crowns

A dental crown is tooth-shaped cap that is permanently cemented over a tooth to restore the its strength, shape and size, and improve its appearance. The crown will cover the visible portion of the tooth above and right at the gum line, once it is cemented into place.

Crowns are used to hold weak, broken or cracked teeth together to avoid further fracturing. Crowns are also used to support large fillings, attach a bridge, or cover discolored or deformed teeth. Crowns may also be placed over dental implants.

Dental Bridges

Dental bridges are dental appliances used to replace one or more missing teeth in your mouth.

Dental bridges are fixed, in that they are cemented to the supporting (surrounding) teeth. In some cases they are fixed on a dental implant that has been placed next to the missing teeth for the purpose of support.

Cosmetic Dentures

Cosmetic dentures are designed to improve the aesthetic appeal of a person's face. Cosmetic dentures can be used to close gaps, replace missing teeth or improve upon previous denture work.

Cosmetic denture placement are a non-invasive procedure that anyone in good medical health can undergo. The patient need only have healthy gums to ensure denture retention.
