Dental Restoration in Meadowbank & Ryde, West Ryde
Tooth enamel is incredibly durable, but over time, decay, cracks, chips, or missing teeth can take a toll on your smile. Restorative dentistry offers solutions to repair damage, restore functionality, and enhance your confidence.
Our Dental Restoration Services Include:
Restorative dentistry provides the perfect “fix” for those missing, decayed and damaged teeth and prevents them from becoming or affecting adjacent teeth. Common restorative treatments include:
- Veneers: Thin, custom-made shells designed to cover the front surface of teeth, improving their appearance.
- Dental Implant: Permanent replacements for missing teeth, involving a titanium post secured in the jawbone and topped with a custom crown.
- Inlays and Onlays: Precision-crafted restorations for teeth too damaged for standard fillings but not requiring full crowns.
- Crowns: Tooth-shaped caps that cover damaged teeth, restoring shape, size, and strength.
- Dental Bridge: A fixed solution for missing teeth, bridging the gap with a prosthetic tooth supported by crowns on adjacent teeth.
- Dentures: Removable appliances that replace multiple or all missing teeth, designed to fit naturally and comfortably.
- Root Canal Therapy: A procedure to remove infected pulp, save the natural tooth, and eliminate pain.
