Restorative Dentistry at its Finest!
The teeth are made from strong stuff, but years of wear and tear and injuries can take their toll and most of us need restorative treatment at some point in our lives. Common types of restorative treatment include:- Crowns
- Fillings
- Dental bridges
Why would I need restorative dental treatment?
You may need restorative dental treatment if you have cavities, have injured or fractured your tooth, have had root canal treatment, have had a tooth knocked out or extracted or your tooth has been weakened by a large filling. The type of restoration you have usually depends on the extent of the damage to the tooth and the location of the tooth.About dental bridges
A dental bridge is a type of restoration used to replace a missing tooth. There are various types of dental bridge, including:- Traditional fixed bridge
- Cantilever bridge
- Maryland bridge (also known as a resin-bonded bridge)
Benefits of a dental bridge
Dental bridges are an effective means of replacing a missing tooth. They restore the look of the smile, giving you confidence when you smile and enable you to eat, drink and speak without any problems. Dental bridges should last for several years provided that they are well looked-after. It is important to keep the bridge clean and your dentist will check your bridge every time you have a routine check-up.
