Dental Restoration Cambridge
Restorative dentistry is a branch of dentistry focused on diagnosing and treating issues related to the restoration of teeth and oral structures. The chief goal of restoration is to restore the health, and function of damaged or missing teeth. There are various procedures done to restore the teeth and give them a natural-looking appearance.
Reasons for Restorative Dentistry
- To enhance the smile
- Fill in unattractive spaces between teeth
- Improve or correct an improper bite
- Prevent the loss of a tooth
- Relieve dental pain
- Repair damaged and decayed teeth
- Replace missing teeth
- Restore normal eating and chewing
- Replace old, unattractive dental treatments
Remember to give your teeth the attention they need today!
The numerous types of dental restorations include
- Fillings: To repair cavities by removing decay and filling the hole with composite material.
- Crowns: Caps placed over teeth to fix large cavities or broken teeth, requiring enamel removal.
- Inlays and Onlays: Custom restorations for cavities too large for fillings but too small for crowns; inlays fit between cusps, while onlays cover one or more cusps.
- Root Canal Therapy: Treats deep infections by removing diseased pulp, cleaning the tooth, and filling it, often followed by a crown.
- Bridges: Replace missing teeth with artificial teeth attached to crowns on adjacent natural teeth.
- Dental Implants: Threaded posts replacing tooth roots, topped with crowns, bridges, or dentures, without altering adjacent teeth.
- Dentures: Replace multiple missing teeth; full dentures replace all teeth, while partials replace some, and implant-supported dentures offer added stability.
