Restorations

If you have crooked, worn, discolored, damaged or unhealthy teeth, your dentist may recommend a tooth or dental restoration. There are different types of dental restorations you should consider.

Tooth restoration can restore the tooth's natural function and prevent further damage from tooth decay. These procedures can also restore the appearance of teeth and may be useful for cosmetic reasons.

Common dental restoration procedures followed in this hospital:

1. Dental fillings: fillings are used to fill cavities caused by tooth decay. This is the most common type of dental restoration.
2. Crowns: Dental crowns are a type of covering that is placed over the entire tooth.
3. Implants: Implants are artificial roots that hold replacement teeth, such as crowns or bridges, in place.

1. Bridges (fixed partial dentures): Bridges are artificial teeth that are used to replace missing teeth. They are attached to the surrounding teeth using crowns, restoring the appearance and function of the mouth.
2. Dentures: Dentures are removable false teeth that replace missing teeth. Dentures just resemble the teeth and their surrounding gums.
3. Veneers: Veneers are natural-looking, tooth-colored shells that cover the front of one or more teeth. It is considered to be a cosmetic procedure intended to improve the appearance of damaged teeth
4. Bonding: Teeth bonding is used to improve the appearance of discolored, cracked or chipped teeth.
