Restoring Teeth for a Healthy Smile
Unfortunately, trauma, lifestyle choices, medications and illness or genetic predispositions can lead to tooth loss or the inability for teeth to perform as required.
Whatever the cause or severity, a lack of a healthy fully functioning mouth can severely affect eating patterns, self-confidence and appearance.
A range of restorative dentistry treatments can be performed ranging from simple fillings to dental implants and dentures to ensure your quality of life is maintained.
Fillings
A dental filling is required when the structure or function of a tooth is damaged. This damage could be the result of external trauma or tooth decay i.e. cavity in the enamel of a tooth.
Dependent upon the tooth and the nature of the damage a variety of restorative filling materials and methods can be utilised to restore the tooth to its normal function. View more information about Fillings.
Crowns
A crown fits over the external section of an existing natural tooth. It is used to provide strength to the natural tooth in cases where the said tooth has been chipped, weakened or the nerve has died due to trauma or decay. View more information about Crowns.
Bridges
Bridges replace one or more missing teeth. If a tooth is lost through an accident or too badly damaged to crown a bridge may be the treatment of choice. Dental bridges consist of an artificial tooth anchored to the natural teeth on either side of the gap. View more information about Bridges.
