The use of fluorides and an increased general awareness about the need for good oral health have, in recent years, led to a decrease in the incidence of tooth decay.  While that is excellent news, it's important to remember that tooth decay and other dental health problems are still real issues that can affect people from all walks of life.  When tooth decay, breakage or other issues arise, restorative treatments may be necessary.  At such times, cosmetic dentists are the professionals who can restore the health and beauty of your smile.

 

Whether your teeth have become damaged through trauma or decay, restorative dental treatments incorporate advanced technologies and techniques to return teeth to their normal appearance, function and structural integrity.  By rehabilitating both the structural and aesthetic aspects of damaged and decayed teeth, restorative dental treatments improve patients' oral health, appearance and self-confidence.

Reasons for restorative dental treatments include:

  • Restoring the appearance of a patient's smile.
  • Replacing missing teeth.
  • Repairing tooth damage caused by trauma.
  • Repairing decayed teeth.
  • Preventing the death or loss of a tooth.
  • Relieving dental pain and discomfort.
  • Replacing old, damaged or unattractive dental treatments.
  • Restoring a patient's normal chewing and eating ability.
  • Fixing uneven or unattractive spaces between teeth.
  • Correcting an improper bite.

Dental restoration methods include:

  • Onlay and inlay restorations.
  • Fixed bridges.
  • Dentures.
  • Dental implants.
  • Crowns.
  • Composite fillings.

When patients require restorative dental treatments, their cosmetic dentist will discuss all of the available options and will recommend the treatment which is likely to be the most effective and the least invasive.  Sedation methods for the improvement of patient comfort will also be discussed, particularly when more significant procedures are required.

 

Remember, your smile can leave a powerful first impression so be sure to always provide your teeth with the care and attention they need!


Remember to give your teeth the attention they need today!
