Whether you have broken teeth, cavities or missing teeth, restorative dentistry is the perfect treatment.
Main points:
Fillings and bonding composite are used to treat cavities and prevent further damage.
– Crowns are placed on teeth to preserve a damaged tooth and prevent decay.
– A bridge is perfect for people with two or more missing teeth in a row.
– Veneers can cover stains, chips and visible cracks in teeth.
– A dental implant is an artificial tooth that replaces a missing tooth.
– Dentures are removable false teeth used in place of a full set of missing teeth. Dental implants are often used to stabilize dentures so they don’t slip.
See your dentist to confirm if you require restorative dentistry.
