Restorative Treatments
Fillings (composite/amalgam), crowns, bridges, and dentures.
Restorative treatments for teeth are dental procedures designed to repair, replace, or restore damaged, decayed, or missing teeth, aiming to improve oral health, function, and aesthetics. These treatments, including fillings, crowns, and implants, fix structural issues, prevent further decay, and restore natural bite, shape, and appearance.
Common Restorative Treatments:
Dental Fillings: Replace decayed or damaged tooth structure using materials like composite resin or amalgam.
Crowns (Caps): Covers and protects a heavily decayed or broken tooth to restore its shape and strength.
Bridges: Replaces one or more missing teeth by anchoring to adjacent teeth.
Dental Implants: Replaces missing tooth roots with artificial posts, topped with a crown.
Inlays/Onlays: Used to repair teeth with moderate decay or damage that are too damaged for a filling but not enough for a full crown.
Root Canal Treatment: Removes infection from the nerve of a tooth to save it from extraction.
Dentures: Removable replacements for missing teeth and surrounding tissues.
