Restoring Your Dental Health
Restorative dental services restore the normal function and appearance of your teeth and gum when damage or disease occurs.
Of course, we aim to prevent dental disease and damage, but sometimes it's unavoidable. In these cases, dental restorations like bridges, crowns, fillings, and dental implants can help restore our smiles to normal.
Dental restorations can sometimes also function as preventive measures. By fixing existing issues, we can not only prevent them from worsening but also stop them from leading to other dental problems. For example, replacing a missing tooth with a dental implant can help prevent the teeth surrounding the gap from shifting out of position.
Whatever dental health issue you're facing, we can help. We'll evaluate the nature and complexity of your oral health condition, provide the appropriate restorative treatment, and advise you on at-home care so you can prevent future complications.
Periodontal (Gum) Therapy
Gum disease is an infection of the structures surrounding the teeth, including the gums, gingiva, alveolar bone, cementum, and periodontal ligament. Depending on the severity of your condition and needs, your dentist may recommend preventive, non-surgical, or surgical gum therapy.
Same-Day Restorations
Using SprintRay digital printer technology, our dentists can create and place porcelain crowns, inlays, and onlays during a single dental appointment to help restore your smile. No impressions or temporaries are needed – you get tooth-coloured, metal-free restorations in only one or two visits.
Dental Crowns
Crowns are customm-made porcelain caps placed on top of teeth to restore their function and appearance. They can also be used to attach bridges, cover dental implants, prevent a cracked tooth from worsening, or restore a discoloured or stained tooth to its natural appearance.
Dental Bridges
Bridges are natural-looking tooth replacements bonded to existing teeth or dental implants to replace a section of missing teeth. Because they are custom-made, bridges are barely noticeable and can restore the natural contour of teeth and the bite between upper and lower teeth.
Root Canals
A root canal is a dental procedure in which your dentist removes diseased blood vessels, nerves, and tissues from the interior of a tooth. By removing the decay and bacteria, your dentist can help halt the spread of infection. This, in turn, may prevent the potential need for an extraction down the road.
Dental Fillings
Composite (tooth-coloured) fillings are used to repair cavities or tooth damage, like a crack. These fillings can withstand moderate pressure from the constant stress of chewing and can be used on front and back teeth.
Inlays & Onlays
Inlays and onlays are tooth-coloured porcelain fillings used to repair cavities when the damage is too extensive for a standard dental filling. They are custom-made and permanently cemented to the tooth as a single piece.
Dentures
Dentures are artificial teeth used to replace one or missing teeth separately or a whole jaw of missing teeth. This is done with either partial, full, or implant-supported dentures. These restorations allow patients with missing teeth to maintain their facial structure and talk and eat properly.
TMJ Disorder Treatment
The temporomandibular joint (or TMJ) is a hinge that connects your jaw to the temporal bones of your skull. A disorder of this joint can cause a range of issues with your jaw and the muscles in your face, including painful symptoms. Our dentists can conduct tests, make a diagnosis, and provide a treatment plan for TMJ Disorder.
